Softwood lumber. If you look at uh Certainly in the case of dairy and swing states in the US, maybe it's not that much of a surprise. And also figure out how much the tariffs actually are uh for US product coming into Canada and how protected it is. Not rationalizing anything that Somebody does. In another country. Just saying. Understand the motivation. It's it's kinda like it's kinda like when we'd have a conversation, oh, I don't know, last November and said the oil's gotta get ahead of it on Broberg and Holloway. You need to understand the motivations of deaf desperate organizations. Okay? And right now Doug Armstrong's looking like a genius 'cause he got those two guys. And I understood the motivations when the Edmonton Oilers were the pariah in the National Hockey League and first offer sheeted Thomas Vanick and then offer sheeted Dustin Banner.

Bob Stauffer 2:21

And they were the bad guys in the league for doing so. Cause Kevin Lowe was trying to keep his team competitive in the final full year that the Edmonton Investors Group owned the team. Right? Sometimes you need to understand motivations. All right, the next guest, he's smart. Uh he is Hart Levine from Puckpedia and Orders Now Headliner today brought to you by Will Hawk Beef Jerky.
