MacMillan Bloedel was a forestry company based in Vancouver, B.C. In the early 1990’s MacMillan Bloedel was subject to public protests and media backlash from around the world over its practice of clearcutting old-growth trees on Vancouver Island. In 1999, MacMillan Bloedel was purchased by the American timberlands company Weyerhaeuser. MacMillan Bloedel produced many forestry films, many of which are held in the University of British Columbia’s archives, the Forest History Society Archives, and in private collections.
