CENTRAL INTERIOR LOGGING ASSOCIATION |
The Central Interior Logging
Association is your voice.....
the
official voice of the log-harvest sector across the
region
We are located in Prince George, B.C. The CILA's roots go back to 1966 when the Prince George and District Truck Loggers' Association was formed.
Within five short years the PG & District TLA's interests broadened and in 1971 the name changed to the Central Interior Logging Association.
Today, the CILA's membership
is strong and varied, including:
Independent logging contractors
Log-hauling contractors
Sub-contractors
Owner-operators
Heavy equipment movers
Road-builders
Equipment & supply dealers
Silviculture workersand many others who provide services vital to our industry like lawyers, accountants, consultants and more. CILA members provide essential jobs and economic stability in communities west to The Hazeltons and Stewart, across the north and east to Fort Nelson, Dawson Creek right up to the Alberta border, and as far south as 100 Mile House. |
Our Mission
We share a commitment to British Columbia's forests and
to sustainable forestry. We believe the key to a healthy regional and
provincial economy is a strong and progressive forest products industry.
The CILA, works closely with the Interior Logging Association, the
North West Loggers Association, and the Truck Loggers' Association, who
are located throughout BC.
This united force provides a strong
influential voice, regionally and provincially, on forestry and
log-hauling legislation. We persistently monitor regulations and
policies that affect independent loggers and truckers, and their
business partners.
With a focus on members' concerns, we lobby
vigorously with all levels of government, its agencies and the corporate
sector, for regulatory and legislative changes that will benefit the
log-harvesting sector.
