Jean Guy Comeau is an Acadia n woodlot owner who fought his way out of poverty and retired after nearly 40 years in a Pulp Mill . Born to a wealthy family, Francis Wishar t is a painter and Winemaker with homes in France and New Brunswick. Together, they travel to Finland - home of UPM-Kymmene , one of the largest licence holders of New Brunswick Crown lands - to urge company officials to practise responsible forestry and to warn them that they may one day be held liable for the damage done by Clear-cutting . The two go head-to-head with the New Brunswick government in an effort to secure a new, community-based forestry policy - one that is environmentally sustainable and that produces more jobs than the highly capital-intensive, mechanized techniques used today. Forbidden Forest is a tale of corporate greed, lax government oversight and people passionate about the places they love. EXTERNAL LINKS
