Marie-Pascale Allard: Contenu #2: Le programme Stage de rêve de l'APFC 2023

Million Ghebrehiwet: Vlog 2: 2023 FPAC Green Dream Internship Program

To start, my name is Aaron Wilde. I grew up in a small town in Alberta called Whitecourt.

As a summer student working for Tolko Woodlands in High Level, Alberta, May was an exciting month. Each day we learned something new as we were taught what a day in the life of a forestry worker could look like.

Today I wanted to give you some insight about how forestry has been a part of my life while living in Whitecourt, Alberta.

Visual impact assessments are used to determine if the visual quality objective target of an area will be met if the proposed harvested activities take place. Visual quality objectives (VQO) are assigned to areas based on how visually sensitive a landscape is.

Each summer I have experienced different areas of the mill learning new skills and expanding my knowledge.

The Millar Western BBQ is just a small glimpse of how the forestry sector branches into the community.

It was unusually hot in Nova Scotia for late April when I was packing for a flight to Alberta. Recently finishing my first year of Forestry school, I was eager to go experience work in a different province.
