Mr. Speaker, on Saturday, Donald Trump announced a 10% tariff increase for our forestry industry. That 10% is on top of the 10% we have been subject to since October 14 and the 35% countervailing duties that already exist. That is a 55% tariff in total. One thing is clear: Washington wants to destroy our industry.
This situation calls for a rescue package that includes financial support and wage subsidies to protect jobs, and the industry needs it now.
How is it that 55% tariffs is not enough for the government to take action for the forestry industry?
