Thing is, those rules allow only for long dragged out legislation through WTO and NAFTA channels, which canadians will win of course, as have we always, but during which the yeller pine landowners achieve much damage to british columbians and US homebuyers at no cost to themselves ... there is no comeback, no rules to cover the paying of costs for bringing frivolous suits ..... once that lobby has turned a US federal department into the current Commerzwaffe, consumers and efficient producers get screwed and screwed hard, no matter what

... wish there was time to type more on this, but there isn't ..... cheers
