Abstract
This paper provides an update in regard to the situation of private woodlots in the province, outlines the applicable legislative and tax regime, and underlines the need for a concerted effort on the part of government departments to actively promote sustainable management of private woodlots. At a time when issues of forest sustainability are being widely debated in international, national and provincial fora, this paper is aimed at drawing attention to the particular situation of private woodlots in Alberta as well as furthering discussion in regard to policy and legal tools which could enhance woodlot conservation and sustainable management.
