Canadian plywood manufacturers have filed a new trade complaint, challenging dumping and subsidies on hardwood from China. Their previous case had disappointing results, due to relatively weak Canadian policy that has benefited Chinese manufacturers. This has allowed dumped and subsidized plywood products access to the North American market. Hopefully, this case will have a better outcome.

In three weeks, we'll kick off the 2026 DHA Annual Meeting. I'm looking forward to seeing our long-time members as well as our new members. Speaking of new members, please join me in welcoming our newest members, Dubuc & Co and Thiesing Veneer.

If you have questions or comments, contact me. I look forward to hearing from you.

Keith A. Christman, President
