The Société internationale d'arboriculture Québec inc., commonly known as SIAQ, is an association of professionals dedicated to the care, protection, and preservation of trees. A nonprofit organization founded in 1977, the SIAQ serves as the Quebec chapter of the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA), a globally recognized organization with a presence in more than 70 countries.
The SIAQ’s mission is to promote the importance of trees and support best practices in arboriculture and urban forestry in Quebec. Through training, information, and knowledge sharing, the SIAQ actively contributes to the continuous improvement of arboricultural practices in Quebec.
The SIAQ also makes a wealth of informative resources available to the general public, accessible notably in the “Public” section of its website. It aims to raise public awareness of the importance of entrusting tree care to qualified professionals to ensure the health, safety, and sustainability of the tree heritage.
