Following the appointment of the new Cabinet, the Forest Sector now reports to the ministère des Ressources naturelles et des Forêts, while the Wildlife and Parks Sectors report to the ministère de l'Environnement, de la Lutte aux changements climatiques, de la Faune et des Parcs. Adjustments will be made to the website over time.

Champagne, Émilie

Emilie Champagne is a biologist who graduated from Laval University (B. Sc., 2009). She also obtained a master’s degree (M. Sc., 2012) and a doctorate (Ph. D., 2017) on plant-herbivore relationships from the same university. Her doctorate project aimed to understand how plant communities can alter resource selection by white-tailed deer. In 2018, she joined the Direction de la recherche forestière as a postdoctoral fellow to study the susceptibility of plants to browsing in the context of assisted migration. Since then, she has been collaborating with researchers from the hardwood and mixedwood forest silviculture teams, working on a deer browsing indicator project and developing assisted migration projects. Since 2022, she has been a research scientist in climate change adaptation strategy in the mixedwood forest silviculture team. Emilie is also continuing her work related to browsing and forest regeneration.
