I couldn't just watch
I went down and joined in. I was out on the street yelling, "Hey! Ho! Lumber tariff's gotta go!" at the American consulate. Ha! 
I didn't and don't agree with some of the politics that were being espoused by the union bosses, but I was once a member of the IWA and I come from a logging town. My mother's first job in Canada was at the recently shut-down Youbou sawmill. My brother-in-law works in the Crofton mill and my sister, two neices and a nephew depend on that. My brother could use a decent union job.
The US can't talk free trade and then reneg on it when they can't compete.
