History repeating

Good news for Con strategists looking for material to fill out a new election platform: they'll now officially be able to promise to solve the long-running softwood lumber dispute all over again. And if the result is rather less positive for the provinces whose industry support programs will be the subject of the kind of litigation that the Cons' capitulation was supposed to end, not to mention Canadians generally...well, the deal was never about them anyway.

Update: Is it any surprise that the Financial Post is going out of its way to paint the CFLI as a victim in reporting on the latest round of complaints?
