Forests and Range Minister Pat Bell speaks at an awards ceremony recognizing
Olympic venue architects for their use of wood and green building practices.

"During the Olympics, people from around the world are going to see
first-hand that B.C. is a global leader in wood product innovation and design,"
said Bell. "These facilities showcase our wood products and will inspire
architects and developers in B.C. and abroad to create stylish, functional
buildings with carbon-storing and sustainably harvested B.C. wood.”
