    U.S. lumber lobby calls for return to negotiations: The hardline U.S. timber lobby at the centre of the crossborder softwood lumber war is calling for both sides to get back to the table, suggesting that Canada and the United States might find 'we may not be that far apart' on a possible resolution.
