Canada weighs limits on US lumber exports to ease trade friction, British Columbia premier tells Bloomberg News

"One of the asks for years out of the American coalition has been a quota — that there's a fixed amount of lumber that gets to come from Canada," Eby told Bloomberg News.

Eby reshuffles B.C. cabinet, switching up heads of housing, public safety and jobs
B.C. premier takes questions from media following cabinet shuffle Started 3 minutes ago Live Social Sharing British Columbia's cabinet has been reworked in what Premier David Eby says is a strategic shift in order to focus on jobs and the economy. Former housing minister Ravi Kahlon takes over as minister responsible for jobs from Diana Gibson, who moves into the citizens' services role previously held by George Chow. Garry Begg has been ousted as solicitor general and will be replaced by Nina Krieger. Christine Boyle will take over the housing portfolio and her Ministry of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation goes to Spencer Chandra-Herbert. Eby says the new people stepping up will bring the perspectives and priorities of the next generation to the cabinet table, while experienced ministers are tasked with moving major projects forward and promoting economic prosperity. The premier says his cabinet will work on the province's biggest challenges: growing the economy, seizing investment opportunities and strengthening public services.
