teevee, A little factual information - just to interrupt the group think dumb that seems to be going on. The issue at point is called the Byrd amendment. Robert Byrd is an ultimate democrat. If you think Bush is bad - jfk would have been a magnificent trade protector. But being a lefty - he probably would have gotten a pass.

Ca cest la problemo. If one raises the tarifstas too mucho then your consumers are beset by higher protected prices. There is no need to compete. Ergo, It costs you more than it does good. Case in point, steel tariffs last year. The powerful steel lobby (i.e. GM) found that when tariffs were applied prices rose so much that the steel consumers were more beset than the vendors were happified. Thusly the net economic benefit was not. They should see this way in wood, except that the consumeros in wood are fragmentistas. Hugie concerns that USE wood have no voice in the Beltway. Besides they don't know that they are getting screwed and their 4X4 is poorer quality and overpriced. All the wood debacle was about was the low Canuck Buck. The low bucko goes away and the problem is gone. The tariff will do damage for a while in the US and in Canada for years to come. EC<:-}
