The narrator in the video, perhaps it’s Ken, but we’re not sure, explains that a train depot has been transformed into a makeshift lumber yard. He said train loads of lumber coming out of Canada are offloaded here and then transported by tractor-trailer to lumberyards across the country.

None of this means that there isn’t a shortage, depending on how the shortage is calculated. If this supply is already included and they’re saying “Even with this, we won’t be able to meet demands” then it does nothing to debunk shortage claims.

Oh, I actually was only looking at the CBC story that was also linked. That is bizarre. The shortage does same to be over though with that added context.

There’s no shortage. Prices have dropped to pre pandemic level.

There never was shortage. It was just middle men maxing profit. And when the middle men realized that constriction companies where starting to build with masonry and metal they realized they had to release what they where hording

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today .

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
