The Real Lives of Loggers in Canada: From Forest to Factory | Canadian Lumberjack Documentary

We join the loggers of British Colombia, Canada as they battle 6-metre-wide trees, 200km an hour winds and a slippy terrain that is also home to grizzly bears. They put their lives on the line but they would not want to do anything else performing one of the toughest jobs on the planet.

Here, life is all about the forest. At the heart of the economy is the wood that teams of lumberjacks cut from the immense forest. Their job is a dangerous one: if they don’t take it seriously, it could take their lives.

After being cut down the enormous logs must be transported on a tugboat across an unforgiving sea. We follow the journey of the trees from the forest to factory. A rare glimpse at some stunning Great White North landscapes and one of the toughest jobs on the planet.

This documentary was produced by Via Decouvertes and directed by Vincent Perazio. It was first released in 2014.
