Companies with U.S. customners such as Roxul Ime. and Mesitor Suspension Systemas were left holding onto their products as boander crossing became a time-consumning task. "There have been sorte problemis. It's flot really die chal- lenges of what we have shipped today (I'uesday), it's more of what's going to happen i the next few days," explained Roxul Logistics Manager Wes Woof, adding thiat anywhere between one and five trucks leave for the U.S. on s daily basis.
