Tariff Fallout from Canada Trade War Hits Maine Logging Industry
What happened
The small logging business, WW London Woodlot Management Company, shut down after years of losses due to the trade war with Canada. The company owners, Molly and Alex, cited ever-climbing costs and the inability to find locally stocked replacement machine parts as primary factors. This decline is occurring amidst the trade war and record-high diesel prices, impacting the health of Maine's logging sector.
