U.S. firms seek bigger wood duty By Gordon Hamilton, Vancouver Sun
In a new subsidy investigation into Canadian softwood lumber, the U.S. Department of Commerce has targeted Canadian research and aid programs provided to forest companies and workers.
The action, part of the on-going lumber dispute, is being described in Canada as harassment while the American lumber industry described it as a logical legal step in the absence of a negotiated settlement.
"This is what litigation is. Litigation isn't necessarily the most sensible way to solve all problems because it goes on and on and on," said John Ragosta, of the U.S. Coalition for Fair Lumber Imports.------------------------------------------- posted 8:39 AM :: reference link ::
