    Softwood Lumber; Our Turn to "Stay the Course"

    Stardate 4785.2

    In Paul Martin's first weekly radio address, he vowed to stay tough with the Americans with regard to the Softwood Lumber dispute.
    "If we have to go to court to get what's rightfully ours, we will. If we have to keep pressuring the Americans, we will. It's just too important to do otherwise."
    As long as he stays tough I am happy. I mean, it is not just about softwood lumber. It is about what is fair and what is not. Perhaps we are being punished for not following the US down the road to hell in Iraq, but rightfully, the taxes that the US have imposed on our lumber sales are not fair. The NAFTA ruling was already in Canada's favor, and now the US is shirking it's responsibilities and yet another treaty...

    Go Mr. Martin. Hopefully, you are most sincere with your statements.
