. . . is a First Nation’s business partnership operating in northeastern Alberta since 2004.
Chipewyan Prairie First Nation located in Janvier Alberta and Heart Lake First Nation formed a partnership in 2003 with a large pulp producer, Alberta-Pacific Forest Industries (Al-Pac), to create a sustainable logging company.
Al-Pac provided hands on leadership, management and direction for the new venture and remains active on the JHL board of directors.
Logging operations commenced in early 2004 on the Al-Pac Forest Management Area (FMA) in the northeastern boreal region of Alberta.
JHL Forestry has grown into a full service “stump to roadside” logging contractor with a capacity of 300,000 m3 per year.
