WASHINGTON, DC – New Brunswick Premier Holt announced on Monday that yet another subsidy package is coming from the Canadian federal government to prop up Canada’s massive excess lumber production capacity. “By pouring on yet more subsidies, Canada is making it perfectly clear that they are looking to circumvent U.S. trade measures, and neutralize President Trump’s Section 232 measures, imposed specifically to address Canada’s unfair trade in lumber. This cat and mouse game has to stop now,” stated Zoltan van Heyningen, Executive Director. “We urge President Trump to increase tariff measures on unfairly traded Canadian lumber until Canada gets the message that subsidies for its industry to the detriment of our industry are not tolerated,” added van Heyningen. “This is an issue of survival, prosperity, and growth of U.S. manufacturing, in local communities, and state economies nationwide.”
