Importing illegal forest products : know the rules, avoid the penalties.: Fo4-62/2017E-PDF
"The Government of Canada is committed to combatting the illegal trade in forest products. The trade in illegally harvested timber is worth between US$30 billion and $100 billion, or 10 to 30 percent of global wood trade, according to INTERPOL and the United Nations Environment Programme. Illegal forest products also play a significant role in financing organized crime and contribute to the decline of endangered tree species and habitat for forest-dependent species"--page [1].
