The claim that Canada subsidizes our lumber industry via low stumpage rates is ridiculous. Low stumpage rates are low stumpage rates and nothing more.

Would you complain if I bought gas on the Canadian side of the border 10 cents cheaper to travel to Vegas that the Canadian government was subsidizing U.S. tourism.

Not to mention the fact the U.S. Department of Commerce investigated and concluded no duty on Canadian lumber was justified.
