  • • Isaak Walton Killam & Alfred C. Fuller
    • Isaak Walton Killam & Alfred C. Fuller: Whereas Isaak Walton Killam, born on Parade Street in Yarmouth, and protégé of Lord Beaverbrook, became one of the most successful Canadian businessmen of the 20th Century: Born in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, Killam rose from paper boy in Yarmouth to become one of Canada's wealthiest individuals. As a young banker with the Union Bank of Halifax, Killam became close friends with John F. Stairs and Max Aitken (Lord Beaverbrook) who put Killam in charge of his Royal Securities. In 1919, Killam bought out Aitken and took full control of the company. Killam's business dealings primarily involved the financing of large pulp and paper and hydro-electric projects throughout Canada and Latin America. Killam was believed to be the richest man in Canada at the time. One of his larger projects in his native province was the creation of the Mersey Paper Company Ltd. and its related electrical generating stations and shipping fleet. In 1922, he married Dorothy Brooks Johnston. Notwithstanding his prodigious financial accomplishments, Killam was a very reserved man who eschewed publicity and was virtually unknown outside a small circle of close acquaintances. Killam died in 1955 at his Quebec fishing lodge. By then, he was considered to be the richest man in Canada. Having no children, Killam and his wife devoted the greater part of their wealth to higher education in Canada. The Killam Trusts, established in the will of Mrs. Killam, are held by five Canadian universities: the University of British Columbia, University of Alberta, University of Calgary, Dalhousie University and McGill University.

  • ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT SFM Indicators and High Conservation Values
    2019 ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT SFM Indicators and High Conservation Values ANNUAL MONITORING REPORT WOODLANDS PORT HAWKESBURY PAPER 2019 Annual Monitoring Report 1 Executive Summary Safety Environment Forest Management The 2019 Annual Monitoring Report provides a summary of Port Hawkesbury Paper’s safety, environmental, and forest management progress in the Woodlands Unit. Since 2002, Port Hawkesbury Paper (PHP) has been monitoring and reporting on a suite of sustainable forest management indicators to measure its progress towards achieving targets regarding social, economic, environmental, and cultural forest values. Long-term monitoring of these values allows the public to better understand PHP’s forest management activities, and the goals and objectives we set to ensure our forest management is having a positive impact and to implement action items in areas that we are not. This is an important element of continual improvement, which PHP strives for every day. This report also summarizes the effectiveness monitoring program for High Conservation Value Forests (HCVF). These values were first identified in 2008 for Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) certification and updated in January 2018 to include new knowledge and information related to species at risk and protected areas. Annual monitoring is conducted to assess the effectiveness of the measures used to maintain or enhance the identified values. 2019 Annual Monitoring Report 2 Contents Executive Summary ........................................................ 1 Contents ........................................................................
