The Forest Pest Working Group (FPWG) under the Canadian Council of Forest Ministers (CCFM) is working towards best practices for analysis, decision-making and action to make forest pest management in Canada more proactive, more coordinated, and ultimately more effective. Its work focuses on developing and implementing a National Forest Pest Strategy, providing an integrated framework for prevention, detection, and response. The aim is to help all the jurisdictions involved work together to maintain healthy forests and a sustainable forest sector.
