| dc.description.abstract | In the 1930's and 1940's, one way for pulp and paper firms to acquire supplies of
pulpwood from the forests of Northwestern Ontario was through pulpwood dealers or
middlemen. An analysis of one of these timber dealers, Oscar Styffe, and his pulpwood
supply firm, Oscar Styffe Limited, reveals a great deal about the role that the middleman
ofNorthern Ontario played in the pulpwood industry. Research seems to indicate that
operators such as Styffe were quite diverse and to a certain extent flexible within the
industry. This would suggest that they were not totally without control over their own
destinies. | |
