[CANUFNET] Proposed down grading of the Faculty of Forestry at U of T

[John McNeil]

Here is a link to the recent Globe and Mail article which covered this subject: http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/toronto/u-of-ts-forestry-school-faces-the-axe/article1968010/

The timing of this down-grading could not be worse for the urban forest in particular. With the Emerald Ash Borer threatening to cost Canadians $2 Billion over the next 1- 2 decades, Ontario needs the skill set of the graduates from the Faculty of Forestry more than ever.


Here is a link to one response from some of the Faculty's friends:
