SASKATOON -- The owner of Burron Lumber says in his 45 years in the lumber business he’s seen certain trends but never anything like this. Bob Burron says he’s heard of lumber thefts from suppliers and how they’re starting to put chain link fences around their project to keep people out. “Anytime there’s a drastic price increase or a product is critical in the supply chain, you’re gonna have theft,” Burron told CTV News. According to numbers released by Statistics Canada on Thursday, the price of lumber has gone up each year but jumped more than 118 per cent in the last year.
