The Canada North Resources Expo (CNRE) in Prince George, British Columbia, Canada is a major biennial trade exhibition that brings together professionals, manufacturers, and suppliers from key resource-intensive industries in northern Canada. Hosted at the CN Centre, the event serves as a central business and networking platform for sectors such as forestry, heavy construction, infrastructure development, transportation, and related resource industries, providing a comprehensive showcase of equipment, services, and technologies that help “get big jobs done.”
CNRE features an expansive exhibition area covering both indoor and outdoor space, where heavy machinery, construction equipment, specialized vehicles, tools, and industrial solutions are displayed. Exhibitors range from heavy equipment manufacturers and dealers to technology providers and service firms that support project execution in rugged and resource-focused environments. This broad participation makes the expo a vital destination for professionals seeking practical product demonstrations, technical insight, and direct contact with industry leaders serving northern markets.
A defining characteristic of the Canada North Resources Expo is its cross-sector focus. While historically rooted in forestry and logging, the event now reflects the wide scope of northern resource activity, including road building, civil construction, infrastructure services, transportation equipment, and support technologies that underpin major projects across northern British Columbia and beyond.
In addition to equipment showcases, CNRE incorporates features aimed at industry engagement and community involvement. Some editions have included initiatives such as “Future of the Industry” programming to introduce younger generations to career opportunities in resource and construction sectors, underscoring the event’s broader role in workforce awareness and industry promotion.
Held in a region with deep ties to forestry, mining, and infrastructure development, the Canada North Resources Expo has become an essential gathering for professionals looking to stay informed about emerging trends, new products, and business partnerships that support large-scale operations and resource-based projects in northern Canada.
