Abstract: Owing primarily to private forest owners' important role in supplying wood to the forest products industry, various studies have attempted to describe owners' profiles, objectives and behaviour. However, there have been few detailed examinations of the differences between the new generation of owners and the previous one. To better understand these differences, an analysis was carried out of data obtained from a telephone survey of a representative sample (n=1723) of the 134,000 private forest owners in Quebec, Canada.
