On the recordNovember 9, 1997
This bill is a technical bill that only delays the implementation on both borders. It does not show a preference on one border or the other. It delays the implementation of the rule on both borders, so it is not showing preference. This is very badly needed because of the interests, especially of what we are talking about, because the Canadian Government does not only support moving in this direction, but they want to do it permanently. They are not in opposition to the direction, they just would like to have more instead of less. We are 99.9 percent problem-free. We have an agreement between the United States and Canada that was a border agreement accord which was the framework of the border inspections. I urge Members to support this legislation.
