Hundreds of thousands still without power in parts of Ontario after ice storm that lasted more than two days .

Forests Canada CEO Jessica Kaknevicius says it could take a couple of years to assess the full extent of the damage.

She says the loss of trees could equate to upwards of 30 billion trees, which could be worth upwards of $30 billion .

Both Kaknevicius and Porter say only time will tell how Ontario ’s green infrastructure will fare in the next few months .

Noland says property owners should not take matters into their own hands.

“Call a professional to assess the situation. It's not worth risking your life if you don’t know what you’re doing, ” he said.
