WASHINGTON — Canada consistently claims that their softwood lumber producers are not subsidized and therefore should have unfettered access to the US market. Yet every Administration since the Reagan Administration has investigated the softwood lumber trade issue with the same conclusion: import duties are warranted because Canadian lumber producers engage in unfair trade practices that harm US companies and workers. …”Canada’s continuous feigned outrage at U.S. anti-subsidy measures is remarkable theater,” stated Andrew Miller of Stimson Lumber Company . “Just last week, Canada announced new subsidy programs for its softwood lumber producers.” …”The US lumber industry are the ones who should be outraged,” added Miller. …”The American lumber industry has the capacity to supply nearly all US lumber demand, and with the tariff measures being contemplated by President Trump, the US industry can, over time, supply 100% of the US softwood lumber need,” said Zoltan van Heyningen.
