No,,,,,the blame for cheaper Canadian soft lumber falls on the Canadian federal and provincial Governments who unfairly subsidizing the lumber industry in Canada with financial aid making Canadian Soft lumber cheaper..
Canadian subsidies are the main reason why the Canadian softwood lumber
producers and American softwood lumber producers are at a loggerheads ...not the US lumber industry lobby...
US industry allegation of subsidy is driven by protectionism and not unfair practice. Since Canadian wood is used in a wide variety of industries, it doesn't qualify as a subsidy under US law. In 1986, US commerce department investigated and ruled in favor of Canada. In 2006, US agreed to refund billions in duties collected and to refrain from imposing new tariffs. After agreement expired, both countries failed to settle on a new deal.

The Trump administration is hitting Canada with stiff tariffs of up to 24% on lumber shipped into the United States.
These
are the first tariffs imposed by President Trump, who during his
election campaign threatened to use them on imports from both China and
Mexico.
The duties were imposed to create a level playing field for American lumber companies.
The move came after there was no breakthrough in U.S. talks on Canadian
dairy tariffs. Canada has long taxed U.S. diary products. Some U.S. milk
exports, depending on the fat content, face tariffs as high as 292%,
according to Canada’s Agriculture Department.

Trump does not have the authority to impose tariffs that one is clearly spelled out as a congressional power. But what the hell unlike this with be challenged or seen in court .

President Trump has the authority with the stroke of his pen,,,to impose tariffs, import restrictions or other retaliatory measures without congressional approval ...The law gives him broad latitude..as long as the President claims that a foreign nation is acting unreasonably or unjustifiably...

BWS, I saw a segment on TV with Canada's Minster of International Trade. Now I understand why Trump did the tariff on softwood lumber because it was meant to look like he's being tough on them when in fact he's not. It represents 2% of the lumber exports for Canada. They're actually a big customer of the U.S., more than China and she said they're also waiting at the table to renegotiate NAFTA if Trump wants to, but the Americans have been slow to join and discuss. Real shocker.
