FPAC Supports TPP
“The TPP would greatly benefit the Canadian forest products industry by eliminating prohibitive tariffs. For example, forest products from Canada now face up to a 31 per cent tariff in Vietnam, 40 per cent in Malaysia, 20 per cent in Brunei, and 10 per cent in Japan,” said FPAC Thursday.
