As expected, the USTR announced the update to the WTO Airbus case last night.

Thanks to all of you who have submitted comments and contacted your Congressional representatives to speak out in opposition of any expansion or increase of the retaliatory tariffs on EU beverage alcohol products based on the WTO Airbus case review. We are expecting news from the USTR in the next days.

Last Friday the Maritime Employers Association (MEA) received word from the Longshoremen's Union that they will be conducting an indefinite strike beginning today, August 10th at 7am.

Strikes at the Port of Montreal continue this week even though the original duration of the strike was intended to last only until July 31st.

Tropical Storm Isaias continues to make its way up the East Coast and ports are responding by closely monitoring its impact.
