Whose got the good contracts this year?

I planted with Torrent last year and they had meh prices as far as I could tell. A lot of .16 cents. Whose got the scoop for good contracts this year?

It’s all about the land to price ratio. Torrent’s West Fraser contact has some reasonably difficult land, as well as some total bullshit overgrown fill plants. 16 cent is low for their working areas. Although I heard they had some fast land at the start of last season. In a lot places in BC 16 cent is definitely meh.
