The Canadian Meat Council is raising concerns about ongoing delays in shipping product to buyers in the United States.

The U.S. country-of-origin labelling program is no longer in effect, but it can be a challenge getting meat shipments to the final destination.

An average of 77 truckloads of Canadian meat are screened by border officials every day.
