Trump imposes additional 10% tariff on lumber, in yet another setback for Canadian producers

September 30, 2025

U.S. President Donald Trump has issued new tariffs that could add further pressure on Canadian producers of softwood lumber and furniture.

A presidential proclamation on Monday evening set out a 10 per cent duty on imports of softwood timber and lumber, along with a 25 per cent levy on imports of kitchen cabinets and vanities – both parts and completed models – and other upholstered wooden products.
