Since you obviosuly have no idea of this situation and just like to spout useless nonsense, that is why I asked Criton and not you.

If you want to learn something, learn about the WTO decision on this matter. You can read about it here: http://www.buildingonline.com/news/viewnews.pl?id=1622


In fact, I'll summarize that one for you:

• Friday’s preliminary ruling by the World Trade Organization (WTO) that countervailing duties imposed by the U.S. Commerce Department on imports of Canadian softwood lumber should be rescinded.
• "This is good news for American consumers, home buyers and renters who are now bearing the brunt of duties averaging 27.2 percent on Canadian lumber"
• The WTO decision clearly shows that the U.S. Commerce Department's findings that Canadian softwood lumber is subsidized are "fatally flawed,"

The funny thing is that this article is from 3 years and one of the parties is still holding up the proceedings, which red white and blue party do you think that is Jimbo?
