US Government launches investigation into Canadian softwood lumber

The United States Government has confirmed it is launching investigations into whether softwood imports from Canada have harmed its forestry sector.

The Canada-US Softwood Lumber agreement expired last year and the one-year hold on litigation expired in the fall.

The long-running trade dispute is a significant concern for BC, since we are the main exporter of Canadian softwood lumber to the US.
