    We’ve had logging tariffs on them for a bit, especially at the start of the pandemic when lumber prices were insane and getting rid of them would’ve helped lower prices a bit.

      Illegal tariffs. The Canadian lumber industry has taken them to court several times and win the cases. And nothing was changed. The US loves NAFTA when it benefits them. Not so much otherwise.

        NAFTA no longer exists, the trade relationships are governed by USMCA now.
