Comment Comment by softwaredoug Lumber is not part of these tariffs. These are on a narrow set of products.Lumber is a different long standing trade dispute going back to the 80s unrelated to the industries targeted by the 50% tariffs.Trump created a 10% Lumber tariff in Sept 2025, but it was already tariffed before that. Canadian lumber today isn’t suddenly 50% more expensive.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada%E2%80%93United_States_s... parent softwaredoug 2 months ago
