    Subsidization
    (The estimate of this tenure’s subsidization is based on its share of the total provincial subsidy. That share is based on the volume the tenure logged in a given year compared with the total volume logged in BC that year. To see how the total provincial subsidy was estimated, see this page. Discovery Island tenure holders pay a much lower rate of stumpage than the provincial average, but that has not been reflected in the estimates below.)
