Canadian softwood lumber exports to the United States could face tariffs and duties of up to 55% later this year, British Columbia's forests minister<\/span> said on Friday, warning that the increase would drive up construction costs in the U.S. and hurt both economies.<\/p>\n

Ravi Parmar, who is on a trade mission in California, said the \"Trump tariff and increased duties\" could more than triple the current 14% duty on Canadian softwood lumber. The estimate includes an anticipated rise in existing duties, coupled with a proposed 25% tariff on Canadian goods.<\/p>\n

\"The cost of rebuilding homes, especially after devastating wildfires, could rise 20% to 40% due to these tariffs,\" Parmar told reporters in Sacramento.<\/p>\n

U.S. President Donald Trump delayed announcing his plans for the new tariff until March 4. He has previously said that the United States does not need Canadian lumber, a claim Parmar disputed.<\/p>\n

\"The U.S. relies on Canadian softwood lumber to meet homebuilding demand, as domestic production covers only about 70% of the market,\" he said.<\/p>\n

The California Building Industry Association has voiced concerns over the potential tariff hike, with CEO Dan Dunmoyer warning that the state lacks local supply and infrastructure to offset Canadian imports.<\/p>\n

\"California depends on Canadian lumber. There aren't real alternatives in the short term,\" Dunmoyer said.<\/p>\n

U.S. duties on Canadian softwood lumber were raised in August to 14.54% from 8.05%, despite opposition from Canadian producers who argue the levies are unwarranted.<\/p>\n

The long-running softwood lumber dispute between Canada and the United States has seen multiple rounds of tariffs imposed by Washington, with Canada challenging the measures through trade agreements and at the World Trade Organization.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
