I disagree,construction lumber damn near doubled during our last recession,within 2 years it normalized.
We only have one thing to blame this on and you know it.
Are you implying that lumber is subsidized?

DUH, by the Forest Circus. They built roads and subsidized the timber companies forever!
When did they even require replanting?

Reilly,I am sure the US taxpayer is on the losing end of the forest service's practices.
That said, the USFS takes in a lot of money in leases and fees to the timber industry,I doubt it is a wash or sustainable.
I am just a lowly carpenter ,end consumer and my next 4 jobs are going to struggle to break even in light of these increases.
First world problem I guess,certainly not what I expected.
Cheif,really like Prince Rupert and all the way to Whitehorse.
I do not think Canada has unfairly subsidized their timber,I believe you just have more of a good thing.The last time I had a piece of SSpruce in my hands was in 2000,when I was in Ketchikan.
That and Yellow Cedar ,beautiful trees.
Cheers

Some U.S. milk exports, depending on the fat content, face tariffs as high as 292%, according to Canada's Agriculture Department.
Canada also claim that 73% of USA milk is subsidized. I don’t doubt it. It would make sense that milk tariffs based on fat content would be much higher for cheeses.
Plus, retaliating on a state Trump won( Wisconsin cheese!) makes perfect sense in a trade war, as does tariffs on Burbon and pork.
