Newsprint Demands Grow

by The Honorable

Minister of Lands, Forests and Water Resources

Much has been said in the past about our pulp and
paper industry, but there has been little mention of one par-

ticular aspect of .the industry
is pre-eminent.

I am referring to the newsprint
industry over which Canada reigns
as undisputed leader in world pro-
duction. Last year, for example,
Canada is estimated to have pro-
duced 7,800,000 tons of the world’s
total production of 18,429,700 tons
of newsprint. Our country’s near-
est competitor was the United
States with an estimated“1865 pro-
duction of 2,140,600 tons.

However, it is not 80 much about
production as about capacity and
demand that I would like to talk,
and it ig here, especially, that
some revealing statistics are evi-

In a review of the newsprint in-
dustry, the British Columbia Bur-
eau of Economics and Statistics
forecasts a continued decrease in
the world’s newsprint reserve ca-
pacity in the face of an increasing
newsprint in 1964, the review says,
world demand.

The growth in world demand for
amounted to 1,258,000 tons — the
largest annual gain recorded to
date. It was, in fact, more than
double the 650,000-ton increase in
world capacity, with the result
that apparent reserve capacity
dropped 703,000 tons from the
1963 level.

This trend has continued, and
forecasts of demand arid supply
for 1966 indicate a decrease in re-
serve capacity for the third conse-
cutive year, with demand expected
to rise by 723,000 tons, against an
increase in capacity of only 627,-
000 tons.

In world capacity, North Ameri-
ca appears to be regaining its place
from Western Europe as the major
growth area. For 1965-66, the esti-
mated North American increase

in which Canada, as a whole.

will be 6 per cent, compared with
2 per cent in Western Europe.

Developments beyond 1966 are
difficult to forecast, but reports
of construction plans, ineluding
those in British Columbia, indicate
that an addition of roughly two
million tons is probable in North
America by 1868, compared with
400,000 tons in Western Europe.

In 1965, Canada accounted for
the major portion of the 254,000-
ton increase in North America.
This year, Canada is expected to
account for 250,000 tons of the
390,000-ton inerease on this con-
tinent. However, if continuous op-
eration becomes legal in Quebec,
a further 350,000 tons will be add-
ed to Canadian capacity.

The prospective 1967-68 increase
in North America of about two
million tons will be divided almost
equally between Canada and the
United States.

This year, Canada’s capacity is
expected to increase to a total of
8,750,000 tons, with the total world
capacity estimated at 21,944,500
tons.

While British Columbia holds
third place in national capacity
coming behind Quebec and On-
tario, her predicted 1986 capacity
of 1,360,000 tons of newsprint will
give her 23 per cent of the capa-
city of the whole of Western Eur-
ope. She is beaten out only by Fin-
land, which will have a capacity
of 1,510,000 tons, and is well ahead
of all other individual nations in
Free Europe.
