This research project was made possible through the Histoire forestière au Québec scholarship (2022-2023), generously funded by Jean-Claude Mercier and the Société d’histoire forestière du Québec. This opportunity enabled Antoine Harel to deepen his understanding of this fascinating field.
We would like to highlight the exceptional guidance provided by Maude Flamand-Hubert, professor in the Department of Wood and Forest Sciences at Université Laval, who supported Antoine Harel throughout this research.
This publication highlights the importance of valuing the history of forestry professions to better understand their role in Quebec’s socio-economic and environmental development.
