RECOMMENDATION: WHEREAS the expired Softwood Lumber Agreement between Canada and US failed to address the needs of workers and Forest Dependent Communities; and

WHEREAS in the absence of a new, negotiated Softwood Lumber Agreement, in 2017 the US has begun a series of escalating duties that will threaten the very existence of forest dependent communities across Canada; and

WHEREAS industry may take the step of moving production to other countries and shutting Canadian mills for the foreseeable future; and

WHEREAS Forestry is one of the foundations on which Canada's prosperity has been built, supporting over 259,000 family-supporting jobs and contributing approximately $22.1 billion to Canada's GDP; and

WHEREAS Forestry is a renewable industry and can be a perpetual source of sustainable jobs; now

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that this Council support a campaign aimed at securing, through fair negotiation with the United States, a softwood lumber agreement that puts the interests of communities, forestry workers and their families first.
