Tentative softwood deal met with mixed reaction CTV.ca News Staff
The Canadian timber industry appears divided over whether it comes out ahead in a proposed deal to end the Canada-U.S. softwood lumber dispute. The reaction comes even before the deal has formally been announced.
While the Canadian government won't confirm any deal, news that the U.S. government and its domestic producers have agreed to terms is widespread.
Carl Grenier of The Free Trade Lumber Council told CTV News he thought Canada came out on the short end of the stick.
"Canada is very much the looser," he said. "This would be a big mistake. A deal like this, I think, is a bad deal and shouldn't happen."------------------------------------------- posted 7:16 AM :: reference link ::
