Question

How did WTO affect canada in the softwood trade?

Answer 1

Competitors had equal footing with Canada.

Answer 2

a decades-long dispute between Canada and the US concerning the ways in which timberlands are managed and priced. dispute shows the importance of rules, esp for canada in a trade relationship, and in this case canada has relied heavily on the dispute resolution mechanisms available to it through NAFTA and WTO.

variety of decisions that the dispute has generated were the building blocks that canada has used to negotiate a new softwood lumber trade agreement with the US.  both sides not satisfied, but indicative that a decent resolution has been reached. few yrs down the road, both hv to use WTO again to come up with another agreement

Answer 3

Protests over Illegal Soft Wood Tarriffs. Complaints first that The Liberal Party was to blame then The NDP and then after that The Concervatives came up with a deal. Neither of them were to blame though as more complaints about raw logs being shipped abroad were made. Possible mockery in this question and the newpaper but if not will say this concern over amount of logs made into planks at sawmill also there.
