And the reason we cannot find other buyers for our softwood lumber would be what? If we stopped selling it till the dispute was settled what would happen? Perhaps a simple, okay, no more lumber till the dispute is settled. The price of lumber here in Ontario is getting ridiculous, sell more at a lower price in Canada, stop accepting any American Wood products until the dispute is settled, and if we need to support the industry, then we will have to support it..... When we embargoed American beef for a very short time, I couldn't buy dog food for my dog..... And the price of meat in Ontario is really quite high, for some reason I have yet to figure out. Perhaps now that spring is here we could say as long as beef is embargoed we are going to only accept fruit but no vegetables starting in June or July.....Although Canadians play the softwood lumber game with American milk and milk byproducts and eggs.....So the fault is not just with the US
