Canada should add a taxation to US lumber exports, let the US wallow in higher prices, and use the tax $ for improved fire fighting of our forest areas.  GHG emissions from forest fires in Canada are equal to the GHG emissions from our oil and gas industry ...refer to our UNFCCC filings if you are in disbelief. US does a much better job than we do in controlling forest fires...their UNFCCC filings show that their forest areas consume more GHGs than our oil and gas industry emits and we have 50% more forest area than the USA. Why can't we just do thinks smarter than  the  US and create win/win situations. I am wondering about the brain count in Ottawa these days.
