What changes have occurred in the life of the lumberjacks in recent years?

In the earlier days, lumberjacks used to live in lumber camps, which consist of a few buildings with a kitchen, a dining room and a bedroom. Earlier, their houses used to be crudely built log cabins, but today, they are more comfortable. Most of the lumberjacks now live in settled communities.

The life of the Canadian lumberjacks is on the way to modernisation. Following the introduction of a wide range of modern scientific tools and new techniques of lumbering, the task of the lumberjacks has become much easier than that of their predecessors. Many lumberjacks earn huge amount of money after working for several years in the log farms. They are called lumber barons. Some of the richest people in Canada today are the lumber barons. They enjoy a very high standard of living.
