B.C. exports fell by almost 15% in Q1 2020 from the same period last year, hurt by both the rail blockade protests earlier this year and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the province said.<\/em><\/p>\n

The hardest-hit sector continues to be energy and solid-wood products, which saw 23.7% and 20.5% declines in the first four months of this year, respectively. The sharpest commodity-specific drops came with coal (down 35.6%) and natural gas (36.6%), which offset gains in electricity (46.6%) an other energy-product exports (78.8%).<\/p>\n

For the lumber industry, logs exports fell a staggering 75% so far this year, while softwood lumber exports dropped 20.1% and softwood plywood\/veneer shipments fell 15.7%. Gains were made, however, in value-added (7.1%) and other solid-wood product exports (8.8%).<\/p>\n

Statistics also show concerning declines in softwood lumber exports in terms of destination; while Canadian exports face significant tariffs in the United States, more than half of the drop in exports in 2020 actually came from falling shipments to China \u2013 which is down 51.6% so far this year. Japan, which saw B.C. softwood lumber exports also fall by 33.6% in 2020, accounted for another 22% of the sector\u2019s export losses from January to April. (The U.S. accounted for about 13% of the drop.)<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
