Thank you, Madam Chair.
Thank you to both our witnesses for joining us virtually today. It is an important study we are doing right now.
The Canada-U.S. softwood lumber dispute has become one of the most enduring trade disputes between both nations. Over the past 25 years, the United States lumber industry has frequently sought U.S. government restriction on Canadian softwood lumber imports through the application of U.S. countervailing duty and anti-dumping laws.
What do you suggest would be helpful for a Canadian official in potential negotiation?
I will start with Mr. Niquidet.
