I'm from B.C. We are seeing increased challenges in accessibility to timber supply. Annual allowable cuts are being decreased, so both our small and large producers are having to work harder and are incurring higher costs to get their timber supply and get it to market. An export tax would likely penalize those smaller producers because we're already seeing higher costs of operations due to the timber supply issues we have in B.C. Is that not right?
