I haven't seen that to be the case.  For example plenty of Pacific yew 
grows in regenerating forests on the coast and in the Kootenays even 
though environmentalists claim that it needs old growth to survive.  
Perhaps you could give a few examples of these 'many' species that won't 
come back?

I can't think of any BC forest ecosystem that has a few dozen tree 
species to begin with, offhand.
