Canada | Quebec calls off plans to log old growth; will instead consider PA status for part of tract

The Quebec government has cancelled a controversial plan to log forests along the Péribonka River, north of Lac Saint-Jean.

But that doesn't mean the entire forest, much of it old-growth, will be untouched in the future. The province's forest ministry will talk with local stakeholders to decide which portion of the territory should be preserved.
