flag British Columbia's tree planting numbers fall below targets amid wildfires and trade disputes.

flag Tree planting in British Columbia is declining for the third straight year, dropping below the government's promise to increase planting despite worsening wildfires. flag By the end of 2025, the number of trees planted is expected to fall to 238 million, with projections suggesting a further decline to 226 million by 2026. flag This decline is due to factors including the softwood lumber dispute with the U.S., tariffs, and the impact of wildfires, which have burned 731,000 hectares in 2025, nearly four times the historical average.
