Voices of Canadian Industry Call to Action on Border Blockades
Tuesday February 08, 2022Hundreds of millions of dollars in cross-border trade, which includes critical supplies and perishable items, are being impacted or lost because of ongoing blockades.
“Canada’s economy is being threatened as thousands of trucks and millions of dollars in cross-border trade that typically go through these entry points every day is being disrupted. Our borders are essential trade arteries that feed businesses and Canadians with essential goods, food, medicine, and critical industrial components that fuel our economy and support our critical infrastructure.”
Ongoing interruptions at Canadian border crossings and on key trade corridors will exacerbate supply chain disruptions.
All levels of government must work together to develop tailored solutions for each unique border crossing in Canada to prevent future disruptions.
“Canada’s trade and transportation infrastructure, which is crucial to the lives of Canadians and their livelihoods, must be protected.”
