A lot of students, including myself at one point, don’t want to move too far from the city, and are hesitant to try new industries that they don’t know much about. The intention of this blog post is to given an insight on what those working in the pulp and paper industry believe it is about.
Could you give an overview of what you do at SLP?

Since we always have our phones with us, the pictures on our phone give a good representation of where we’ve been and what captured our attention. So to sum up my experience in Slave Lake so far I would like to share some pictures from my phone.

I had heard that a lot at school and a lot from my parents since numerous saw mills closed in the Vancouver area back in the late 1980’s. When I came to Slave Lake Pulp (SLP), I was expecting to work mostly with pulp and other wood products that are made by West Fraser. I was surprised when I arrived to learn I would be working on a “biomethanation”

Firstly, I would like to thank the Forest Products Association of Canada (FPAC) and Slave Lake Pulp (SLP) for this wonderful opportunity. The managers at SLP were very welcoming and assisted me in every way possible with my move to Slave Lake.
A bit about myself:
My name’s Navjot and I’m from Surrey B.C., about a one hour drive southeast from Vancouver.
