British timber exports and forest lands across colonies
Reports to the English Government show Canada alone sent about 125 million dollars worth of timber to England in the five years to 1876. British Columbia and Ontario hold vast timber lands, with Quebec, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Ontario totaling tens of millions of acres. Newfoundland forest fires, Natal forest use bans, and other colonies exhibit strong timber activity, including 34 million feet of mahogany from British Honduras in ten years to 1878 and Van Diemen's Land's eight million acres of timber, including one million in private hands.
