The export charge, to be levied by Canada on exports of softwood lumber products to the United States, is collected and administered by the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) with support from the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade on behalf of the provinces. Under the
Softwood Lumber Products Export Charge Act, 2006, the CRA is responsible for making statutory disbursements to the provinces of a portion of the charge collected over the course of the application of the Softwood Lumber Agreement, 2006. These disbursements are reduced by several factors: refunds paid to the
industry, costs for the administration and implementation of the Agreement and the Act as well as the costs incurred for certain litigation resulting from the Agreement or Act. The Act applies to the following regions: British Columbia Interior, British Columbia Coastal, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec. Exports from the remaining provinces and territories
are excluded.
