  QUEBEC CITY Quebec Solidaire (QS) is asking the Legault government to declare a moratorium on commercial logging in active maple groves and in sectors with high maple syrup potential. The opposition party says it wants to respond to the repeated concerns from maple syrup producers about the activities of forestry companies in maple syrup production. The party believes that Minister of Forests Pierre Dufour should set up a national consultation to review the use of the forest and protect maple syrup activities, explains QS in a press release sent on Sunday. Maple syrup sales are growing rapidly and the maple syrup industry relies on maple trees in the public forest to meet part of the demand, wrote Rouyn-Noranda-Temiscamingue MNA Emilise Lessard-Therrien. However, quality maple groves that could be tapped are currently threatened by industrial logging authorized by the government. We can t accept this without saying anything.
