About Us

The Pulp and Paper Task Force is a co-operative made up of representatives of industry, labour and government.

Launched on February 27, 2007, the task force works to present an understanding of the value of this sector to the province of British Columbia. As one of B.C.’s largest industrial employers and single largest consumer of electricity, our sector is the backbone of many communities and contributes extensively to the provincial economy.

The Pulp and Paper Task Force also works to ensure that forest and related provincial policy is created and implemented in a way that fosters growth and increased competitiveness for the sector and for the province as a whole. The task force is committed to the pulp and paper industry and believes it will be a significant contributor to the provincial economy for years to come.
