Disbursements to provinces under the Softwood Lumber Products Export Charge Act, 2006
Name of transfer payment program: Disbursements to provinces under the Softwood Lumber Products Export Charge Act, 2006 (Statutory)
End date: October 12, 2015 (pending approval of legislation)
Description: 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 (Act), the CRA is responsible for making disbursements to the provinces of a portion of the charge collected over the course of the application of the Softwood Lumber Agreement, 2006 (Agreement). These disbursements will be 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: BC Interior, BC Coastal, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec. Exports from the remaining provinces and territories are excluded.
Expected results: Disbursements will continue on a quarterly basis until the termination of the Agreement, unless lumber market prices increase to the point where no export charge is applicable for that period.
