27-Oct-2009 (16 years 7 months 17 days ago)The United States blocked on Friday requests by Canada and Mexico for World Trade Organization experts to examine new U.S. labeling rules that the two U.S. neighbors say are hurting their meat exports.
Both Canada and Mexico told the WTO's dispute settlement body that U.S. Country of Origin Labeling (COOL) rules -- requiring meat sold in U.S. stores to show which country it comes from -- were damaging North American trade.
