California looks to Canadian timber to help in fire rebuild, despite tariff threat
- California homebuilders continue to rely on Canadian lumber despite the threat of a 25 percent tariff, as they rebuild homes lost in wildfires.
- Dan Dunmoyer stated that alternatives to Canadian lumber are limited due to land ownership restrictions and a lack of local production capabilities.
- The proposed tariffs could raise softwood lumber levies to nearly 40 percent, impacting housing projects amid high demand from displaced families.
- British Columbia's forestry sector criticized the tariffs as unnecessary, noting that the U.S. Meets only 70 percent of its lumber needs domestically.
