New Report Warns U.S. Tariffs on Lumber Could Trigger Systemic Risks Across B.C.
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A new report by policy researcher Jerome Gessaroli for Resource Works explores how a significant downturn in British Columbia's forest sector could set off far-reaching ripple effects across the province's infrastructure, economy, and public safety systems.
