They do not require the people of this city or any city to shop at their place of business like the burger joints do. There is no real point in attacking Canfor for what they are doing here. They are a company that only caters to shareholders. Thats all that matters to them. The "roots in our community" thing is only just a feel good advertisment to make Canfor and their shareholders more comfortable getting rich from processing our resources before they run out and leave our community with nothing but memories. - One Happy Camper Mon, 04 Aug 2008 10:41:52 +0100 http://www.princegeorgecitizen.com/20080801144366/local/news/canfor-building-energy-plant-in-fort-st.-john.html#comment-9599 I don't think forestry is the biggest industry here now. I think it's retail outlets. As for building in Fort St. John, I guess their root are in that community... - Buddy Mon, 04 Aug 2008 08:14:30 +0100 http://www.princegeorgecitizen.com/20080801144366/local/news/canfor-building-energy-plant-in-fort-st.-john.html#comment-9597 As a person living in this small town watching the effects of these big companies to my friends and family, I think it is appalling, you can bet the CEO of Canfor is not worried about his next mortgage payment or how to feed his children. - stenseth Mon, 04 Aug 2008 07:38:07 +0100 http://www.princegeorgecitizen.com/20080801144366/local/news/canfor-building-energy-plant-in-fort-st.-john.html#comment-9591 Everytime I see the (INSERT BIG NAME FORESTRY COMPANY HERE) logo I hear a huge silence. Heres a company that surely DOES NOT believe there is such thing as bad publicity. Such is the state of consenus, I would venture to call the damage irreparable in terms of reputation (the people have spoken-lol) and any PR job attempt now would be the rough equivalent of trying to get Elizabeth Taylor looking like she is a ravishing 20 year old. Or convincing any modern day celeb in love with repairs that beauty fades. Some things are truly left better off alone. INSERT BIG NAME FORESTRY COMPANY HERE knows this better than anyone-lol - StraightUP Sun, 03 Aug 2008 23:48:03 +0100 http://www.princegeorgecitizen.com/20080801144366/local/news/canfor-building-energy-plant-in-fort-st.-john.html#comment-9545 Ft St John is booming, and yet Canfor is helping to suffocate Mackenzie. I thought their motto was "our roots are in your community" What about the roots n Mackenzie? - stenseth Sat, 02 Aug 2008 20:14:37 +0100 http://www.princegeorgecitizen.com/20080801144366/local/news/canfor-building-energy-plant-in-fort-st.-john.html#comment-9539 Ft. St. John doesn't need any more good news, they have oil. It just goes to show you how low Canfor can go, they couldn't even be bothered to reinvest that money in PG. Perhaps create a few more jobs at the Rustad site. - RUEZ Sat, 02 Aug 2008 18:13:05 +0100 http://www.princegeorgecitizen.com/20080801144366/local/news/canfor-building-energy-plant-in-fort-st.-john.html#comment-9535 that is good for fort st. john but what about the people that live in prince george. most of them have payments and morgages and probably a family to feed what will they do now? this is a forestry town oh! excuse me city and it is going down hill fast what will be shut down next. glad that we are retired but struggle to keep up. - its about time Sat, 02 Aug 2008 17:59:36 +0100
