USTR raises dairy issue with Canada, but apparently without progress

The Hagstrom Report
U.S. officials raised concerns with Canada’s dairy program during the first meeting of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Trade Commission on Tuesday, but there were no signs of progress on the issue of interest to the U.S. dairy industry.
During a call to reporters late Tuesday evening, a senior administration official said, “The dairy issue is one of our priority issues with Canada.” The senior official said that U.S. officials “made our concerns known to them” and “are looking forward to keeping in touch with them on those issues.”
The U.S. dairy industry has said that if the meeting did not result in an immediate resolution to U.S. objections to the Canadian dairy tariff-rate quota, Trade Representative Katherine Tai should initiate a dispute settlement case with the Canadian government.
