Abstract
Statistics Canada's inter-sectoral models have been used to estimate the impact of the forest sector on the economy of Canada and its provinces. These models permit the evaluation of the linkages between the forest sector and other sectors of the economy. The results indicate that in 1980 close to 834 000 jobs, either directly or indirectly, depended upon forest sector activity. Key words: employment multiplier, economic impact.Keywords
