Synopsis
Uncover the scope and findings of an early 20th‑century forest oversight. This official report examines how timber returns were recorded and the gaps in government checks that could distort province-wide timber policy.
The compilation presents the Commission’s careful look at how timber data were collected, the role of cullers, and the reliability of sworn affidavits. It also discusses the consequences of faulty records for government revenue, land use, and forest management. Readers will see how investigations led to recommendations on improving accounting, fire prevention, and reforestation efforts, all set within Ontario’s timber lands and contracts.
- How returns were measured and verified, and where misconduct appeared
- Proposed reforms to department organization, record‑keeping, and auditing
- Strategies for fire prevention, brush burning, and reforestation efforts
- Background on long‑term timber contracts and territorial arrangements
Ideal for readers of historical governance, forestry policy, and Canadian public records seeking context on early forest administration.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an exploration of the timber industry in Ontario from 1907 to 1920 and the resulting investigation into abuses of the Crown Timber Act. After receiving reports of abuses in the industry stemming from improper accounting, trespassing, damage to timber, and fraudulent practices, the authors were commissioned to investigate and report on the extent of the wrongdoing. The authors found widespread irregularities, including the underreporting of timber cut, the use of forged and false documents, and the deliberate instruction to undercount logs cut provided to employees. The reforms proposed in the book helped shape the present-day forestry and timber industries in Canada. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
