Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of International Trade.
Having our exporters' products checked for compliance at the border is a non-tariff trade barrier that has resulted in damaged products and mixed up orders. Some of the 53-foot drop trailers have ten to a dozen drops on them. All the products do not always get reloaded.
Will the minister insist that a U.S. custom official or a USDA officer check for compliance at the point of delivery rather than at the border?
