Trade dispute with U.S. over paper products to end in Canada's favour

A years-long trade dispute with the U.S. over Canadian paper products used for magazines and newspaper supplements is coming to an end in Canada's favour.

Canadian producers of supercalendered paper could get millions of dollars in refunds after a U.S. company decided to drop its complaint alleging unfair subsidies north of the border.

But the victory doesn't come without a price: under an agreement to resolve the dispute, the Canadian producers will give up as much as $42 million to the U.S. company.

This is the second positive trade development for Canada this week after Canada won another favourable outcome in the Boeing conflict.

There's Always the inevitable deflections, though.

How does all of this tie in with Benghazi?

So we win when we have to pay a penalty of $42 million.
