B.C.'s independent wood manufacturers decry retroactive U.S. softwood duties
In an aerial view, logs are seen stacked at Gorman Brothers Lumber sawmill, in West Kelowna, B.C., on Friday, April 4, 2025. (Darryl Dyck / The Canadian Press) VANCOUVER — British Columbia's independent wood product makers say hundreds of small- and medium-sized manufacturers may be forced to shut down in light of the latest decision from the United States to raise anti-dumping duties on Canadian softwood. The province's Independent Wood Processors Association says in a release that the U.S. Commerce Department's decision this week to raise duties also includes a requirement for Canadian companies to retroactively remit duties for products shipped to the United States since Jan.1, 2023. Association chair Andy Rielly says in a statement that the requirement to pay duties on products shipped in the last 31 months could not only force small B.C. producers to shut down, but may also threaten operators' personal assets as they may have to risk using their homes as collateral to secure bonds to pay. Rielly is urging the Canadian government to create support programs to make sure B.C.'s independent wood processors can keep workers employed and their companies running. The U.S. Commerce Department said earlier in the week it will raise anti-dumping duties on Canadian softwood to 20.56 per cent, drawing the ire of several B.C. industry groups such as the B.C. Council of Forest Industries and the B.C. Lumber Trade Council. The Independent Wood Processors Association says the the 'all-others' rate affecting its members will be raised from 14.4 per cent to 27.3 per cent, with the possibly of another increase 'in the coming weeks' potentially pushing the duties for their products to as high as 35 per cent. 'Until the Canadian government can negotiate a settlement to this long-festering dispute, we need a government support program to keep our workers employed,' Rielly says, adding an overall duty of 35-per-cent would force members to pay retroactive duties of 27 per cent on products already shipped. Association executive director Brian Menzies describes independent wood product producers as 'collateral damage' in the trade war, and says the only hope they have of avoiding the hit is either 'a favourable appeal from the Canada-US-Mexico Agreement' or 'pursuing a bilateral negotiated resolution.' 'We should not face export taxes or quotas,' Menzies says. 'Our raw materials are not subsidized, and we are too small to 'dump' our products in the U.S. market. 'We acquire logs and lumber at 'arm's length' from various suppliers on the open market, just like claims made by members of the U.S. Lumber Coalition, and yet our Canadian companies along with U.S. consumers must pay these unfair and costly duties.' Prime Minister Mark Carney had previously said that a future U.S.-Canada trade deal could include softwood lumber quotas. This report by Chuck Chiang of The Canadian Press was first published July 26, 2025.

Independent review of North Shore Wastewater Treatment Plant overruns on hold
The North Shore Wastewater Treatment Plant is seen during construction in Fall 2020. (Metro Vancouver) Metro Vancouver has put its independent review of the massively over-budget North Shore Wastewater Treatment Plant project on hold while it litigates the issue with the project's former contractor. The regional district announced the decision on Friday, saying it is 'not in the public interest' to continue the review while its lawsuit against Acciona Wastewater Solutions LP – and the company's counterclaim against Metro Vancouver – are before the courts. The litigation is currently scheduled to go to trial in March 2027. 'After careful consideration, the board has decided the public interest is best served by resolving the legal dispute with the previous contractor before undertaking the review,' said Burnaby Mayor Mike Hurley, chair of Metro Vancouver's Board of Directors, in a statement Friday. The board first launched the independent review process in June 2024, hiring retired judge John J.L. Hunter to 'develop the scope and terms of reference for the review and the process of selecting an independent, qualified reviewer,' Metro Vancouver's statement explains. Hunter has since died, and his role is now being filled by Randal Kaardal, a senior litigator at his company Hunter Litigation Chambers. Before his death, Hunter selected the MWGK Independent Review Team to conduct the review. In the Metro Vancouver statement, Kaardal said delaying the review until the conclusion of the court process will result in more information being available to the reviewer. 'The litigation is a public process, and once the dispute with the former contractor has been resolved, the Metro Vancouver board and the reviewer would be in a better position to complete a review on any outstanding questions,' Kaardal said. Metro Vancouver dismissed Acciona in October 2021, claiming that the company had 'abandoned' the project, a claim Acciona says is not true. The two sides are currently suing each other in B.C. Supreme Court, with Acciona alleging that Metro Vancouver has refused to pay it more than $100 million for work it completed on the site, and that the regional district made more than 1,000 requests for project modifications that led directly to the project's ballooning cost. For its part, Metro Vancouver says Acciona failed to meet project timelines and left it with 'no choice' but to cancel the contract. Acciona blames the delays on Metro Vancouver's 'flawed design' and 'interference' with the project. Originally budgeted at roughly $500 million and expected to be completed by 2020, the North Shore Wastewater Treatment Plant project is now moving forward with a different contractor at a cost of $3.86 billion – more than seven times the original budget. The anticipated completion date is now sometime in 2030.

The Smartest Cryptocurrency to Buy With $1,000 Right Now
Key Points This top cryptocurrency commands 60% of the entire industry's market cap, and it's the largest and most valuable digital asset by far. There is a vast financial ecosystem that supports greater adoption of this crypto. Investors can have confidence in this network's staying power for the long term. 10 stocks we like better than Bitcoin › Recent developments have created a more favorable regulatory backdrop for the cryptocurrency industry. That should gives investors confidence when assessing whether they will put money to work. But among the sea of choices out there, it can feel like an impossible task trying to pick one. I think it's best to keep things simple. If you have $1,000 that you're ready to invest in this exciting asset class, look no further than this top cryptocurrency. I view it as the smartest investment to make in the sector. Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Learn More » Already a winner The entire crypto market is valued at roughly $4 trillion, as of July 24. However, there's one digital asset that reigns supreme. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC), which carries a market cap of $2.4 trillion, represents 60% of the whole industry. I believe it's the best crypto to buy right now with $1,000. Introduced in early 2009, Bitcoin is the oldest cryptocurrency in the world. This gives it a valuable first-mover advantage. It has the brand recognition, as well as the mind share, that puts it ahead of all the other blockchains. Plus, Bitcoin is likely the first place investors look when thinking about allocating capital to cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is also the most liquid. Its market cap is more than five times more valuable than Ethereum 's. Just in the past 24 hours, about $30 billion worth of Bitcoin was sent between addresses. Bitcoin's network effect can't be overstated. There is a large group of developers working on maintaining it, and there are miners and nodes scattered around the globe supporting Bitcoin's functioning. This doesn't mention all the market participants that use Bitcoin. Looking more broadly, Bitcoin has a deep (and growing) financial ecosystem that supports its adoption. Financial services, including exchanges, wallets, payment systems, exchange-traded funds, and custody services, is one robust area that highlights how much development is taking place with Bitcoin. One of the biggest risks was that the U.S. government would ban Bitcoin. This is no longer something to worry about, as Bitcoin has been fully embraced. For example, the White House announced a planned Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, showcasing the importance of owning the digital asset at the federal level. Thinking about the next decade and beyond Warren Buffett is a legendary investor who has found tremendous success because his philosophy centers on owning durable businesses that have stood and will continue to stand the test of time. Investors should adopt the same approach when looking at the cryptocurrency industry. Yes, there will be smaller, more volatile, and more exciting tokens whose prices can skyrocket in a short period of time based on changing investor sentiment. But no one can confidently say that they will even be around a decade from now. Bitcoin stands above the rest. I believe it's the crypto that has the most staying power. It has survived up until now, successfully making it through changing economic conditions and multiple crypto winters, only to bounce back stronger than ever. This gives me confidence that it will not only be relevant, but will be thriving, far into the future. Gold currently has a market cap of $23.1 trillion. For thousands of years, the precious metal has been viewed as the scarcest asset in the world. Bitcoin is even scarcer, with an absolutely finite supply cap of 21 million units. This makes it extremely attractive to own, especially when compared to the excessive spending and rising debt of the U.S. government and other countries around the globe. A $1,000 investment in Bitcoin today could be worth significantly more years and decades down the road. Should you invest $1,000 in Bitcoin right now?
