“What a crock of crap. Even if they actually planted those trees, it would take them 50 years to remove 196 tons of CO2 from the air.”
Not only that, but just about any place in Canada where you might replant trees would have eventually regrown tree cover anyway, given time. Most of the wooded areas of eastern Canada were already logged at least once, and have regrown naturally.
Especially in this tree friendly, CO2 rich environment.
