Madam Chair, the B.C. forestry workers I know do not want handouts; they want their jobs back.
BC Council of Forest Industries president and CEO Kim Haakstad said recently:
The recent increase in U.S. tariffs and duties is a serious blow to an industry already strained by years of uncertainty, mill closures, and job losses. The federal government must make resolving the softwood lumber dispute a national priority.
My simple question for the Liberals is, when will the Liberal Prime Minister finally make resolving the softwood lumber dispute a priority?
