Possibly a mention that the illegal (according to rulings) duties have cost the BC economy millions and millions of dollars. It also looks like Canada may impose some import duties on Americian products coming into Canada. Tawker 23:15, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

I'd say that after seeing the most recent edit, the cleanup tag should be removed. --Royalguard11 03:20, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

Not necessarily; the opening could be worded better and there's still a lot of non-wiki'd text. Radagast 01:08, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
I just took a shot at it. I didn't do much with the content of Lumber III A/B yet, work is needed there (eventually) to bring the day-by-day diary together in summary form. —RandallJones 09:21, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

On Wed Feb 15th, the WTO found in favor of the US once again, and more appeals will be on the way.

[edit] Expansion request

So, for Lumber 4, what exactly are the terms of the agreement? I heard that part of it is that Canada imposes export duties, but that's not mentioned here. Has the agreement finally been implemented since 2006? -- Beland (talk) 17:44, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
