Lumber talks please officials By MARTIN O'HANLON AND DAN DUGAS, CP, London Free Press, Canada
Given that the 1996 Canada-U.S. softwood pact took six months to translate into legal paperwork, a new deal appears far off.
The union representing lumber workers was not impressed.
'Canadian negotiators have . . . blinders shielding them from reality,' said Cec Makowski of the Communications, Energy and Paperworkers Union of Canada.
He said Canadian negotiators are linking a proposed export tax on softwood to an American proposal to eliminate public ownership of Canadian forests.------------------------------------------- posted 11:26 AM :: reference link ::
