I am looking for a semi load of certified heat treated oak/Mesquite/Hickory for export to Alberta Canada. Any ideas?

Well I know what "Heat Treated" pallets mean Bug kill cycle, temps above 130 deg F? Maybe export laws require this?
yes. Export laws require a Phytosanitary Certificate issued by the NPPO must accompany the shipment.

Firewood must be heat treated as described by the following conditions to be permitted entry into Canada:

Heat treated: the firewood must be heat treated using equipment (i.e., kiln) that is capable of heating wood to a minimum core temperature of 56°C for a minimum of 30 minutes.

Do you mean kiln-dried?

Only half an hour? Bug kill cycles for home owner kilns is suggested 130F for 8 hours.
