FREDERICTON – New Brunswick’s premier will meet with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Premier Blaine Higgs said softwood lumber will be front-and-centre during the meeting Monday in Ottawa. Higgs said softwood lumber was not a factor in the new free trade agreement between Canada, the United States and Mexico. …For more than two years, softwood lumber entering the U.S. from Canada have been subject to tariffs. But Higgs said imports from Europe, which are not subject to tariffs, are “pouring in” to the eastern U.S. “When you think of that, how is that fair? Here we are the closest suppliers and we’re subject to a 20 percent tariff and they’re not subject to this tariff,” he said.
