## Captured lead
Kerry-Lynne D Findlay post text captured from public Facebook page:

> The NDP’s relentless war on prosperity is laying timber towns to waste.  
> Interfor is moving corporate functions to the U.S. as BC loses jobs & investment.  
> Conservatives will cut red tape, fight for lumber tariff relief & get BC's forestry on a path to growth.

Graphic text: “INTERFOR LEAVES BC / THE LATEST BC NDP CASUALTY.”

## Source checks
- ConservativeBC release says Interfor is moving its headquarters from Burnaby to Atlanta and frames it as an NDP policy failure.
- Global News reports Interfor is moving head-office functions to the U.S., citing a Financial Post-viewed memo.
- Business Examiner/Postmedia summary says Interfor told employees it will move most executive/back-office functions to Peachtree, Georgia; the memo named Georgia as the “primary hub for corporate and functional support”; no timeline or job count was specified; no layoffs were planned; and a continued West Coast presence would remain.
- Interfor’s site says it is one of the world’s largest forest-products companies, with operations across North America and 60% U.S.-based operations.
- B.C.’s softwood lumber dispute page confirms the Canada-U.S. softwood lumber dispute is long-running and that B.C. works with federal/provincial/industry partners to respond to duties.

## Editorial caution
The article uses the Facebook/ConservativeBC material as a political lead. It does not state that every part of Interfor’s decision was caused only by the B.C. NDP. It separates verified operational facts from political interpretation and argues that the move is a warning sign for B.C. forestry investment confidence.
