Proposed U.S. softwood bill 'theft,' says B.C. minister CBC British Columbia
B.C. Forests MInister MIke de Jong is furious at a U.S. politician who wants to keep softwood lumber duties paid by Canadian companies.
Montana Senator Max Baucus said he plans to introduce a bill that will allow U.S. lumber companies to keep an estimated $3.6 billion in duties paid on Canadian imports, even though international trade regulators have repeatedly ruled against the duties.
'Well I don't know in Montana what they call it when they take something from you ... but around here it's theft,' says de Jong.------------------------------------------- posted 9:49 AM :: reference link ::
