For the sake of accuracy, it should be noted that John Rustad proposed that all stumpage be eliminated in BC and replaced with some sort of value-added tax. It was not a solution to any problem, and certainly would not end the tariffs.

Awful awful news. It’s not like Canada is running out of trees. Over regulation creates jobs in the bureaucracy and kills jobs in the private sector.
