"untainted politicians"? hmmm..isn't that approaching the oxymoronic level?

"Cynicism" and Nelson...speaking of..did you note the recent mention of the doings of Winnie?

Log spill off Oregon coast prompts boat, beach warning

ASTORIA, Ore. — Officials are warning boaters and beachgoers after a tugboat hauling logs got caught in rough seas yesterday and spilled its load off the coast.

The boat, traveling from British Columbia, lost 400 bundles of logs. The Coast Guard warned mariners and beachwalkers to be careful of logs in the surf.

--------------------

See where a log barge lost it's load in transit from Vancouver B.C. to Eureka,Cal. The tug the Sea Commander is either owned or tows under contract to Peter Brown's Sealink Nav. Suggesting to me it was towing the Arctic Tuk, which is the long way around to suggesting that about 10,000 M3 of BC logs are floating off the Oregan/Washington Coast. Tariff free logs I might add.
Marcos, can you explain to me, why, if the BC government is subsidizing the industry unprocessed log are not subject to a tariff? Surely the stumpage and tax system unfairly benefits the harvest only industry as well. Are the Americans saying our heavily unionized lumber mills are there target
Why are not pulp and paper products being target? Don't they use the same subsidized raw materials?
