The series has garnered excellent reviews from numerous stakeholders in the field, including forestry educators at Algonquin College, landowners, foresters with the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, and Gordon Miller, the former Environmental Commissioner of Ontario, who calls it a “masterful job” that is “shaping up to be a seminal work.”

"You have done a great job in telling the story of Ontario’s forests over time and the importance of them to societies both local and at large in Ontario," adds Ken Armson, former Provincial Forester for Ontario.

"I think that these videos gave me lots of information and were put together very well,” adds a 15-year-old male viewer. “I definitely have a better understanding about the forestry industry than I did before. All in all they were great videos that had my attention the entire time."
