āCanadian wood imports satisfy around 25 percent of U.S. lumber demand.ā
āAccording to The House Designers, a site dedicated to home construction and design, a mature pine tree of 80 feet with a diameter of 2 feet would yield 754 board feet of lumber.ā
āThis means approximately 17 million trees would have to be felled to match the quantity of lumber the U.S. imports from its neighbor.ā
Trump said: “We don’t need Canada’s lumber. So what I’m doing is I’ll be signing an executive order freeing up our forests so that we’re allowed to take down trees and make a lot of money and then re-harvest trees.”
He added: “We don’t need trees from Canada, we don’t need cars from Canada, we don’t need energy from Canada, anything from Canada.”

you should watch āsomebody somewhereā
point being, your community is there somewhere
btw when i hang with trumpers they ALWAYS get political (even though if i do itās āhey no politics!)and always say racist shit with a wink and a nod like āhey i know youāre liberal so iāll just mince my racist words aināt i cuteā
note to trumpers: if you have a thought that starts with something like āiām not racist BUTā, just donāt express that thought
or how ābout when itās now your job to defend everything every liberal has ever said, thatās always such a party š
