MEXICO CITY -- Mexico should immediately ban imports of “shoddy used trucks” from the United States, the National Chamber of Trucking (Canacar) said Thursday in a paid newspaper ad citing wide-ranging concerns including climate change, public safety, and jobs.
Canacar’s call for the ban comes amid a long-running trucking dispute between Mexico and the United States. Canacar's president, Juan Carlos Munoz said in January that the EPA will prevent most Mexican trucks from entering the U.S. even with a new agreement.
