CONT

Les discussions chez nos voisins portent sur les problèmes de capacité des scieries, les pénuries de travailleurs dans les scieries et la façon dont la flambée des prix du bois d'œuvre exacerbe la crise de l'abordabilité du logement et met le rêve américain d'accession à la propriété hors de portée de millions de ménages.
