UNITED STATES IMPORT RESTRICTIONS ON CHEESE AND OTHER DAIRY PRODUCTS | |
|
1. The officials in Ottawa chiefly concerned have considered whether there should be any change in our representations to the United States on this matter in the light of: (a) the message of the President to the Congress asking for the elimination of the Andresen Amendment (and other parts of the Act),108 and (b) the reaction of State Department to the protest filed by Denmark. 2. It is agreed here (a) that there should be no change in the Note presented to State Department; (b) that the oral representations should be rather stronger than they would otherwise have been; that while no specific reference should be made to the form of retaliation under consideration it should be indicated that there is a good deal of opinion in Ottawa at all levels in favour of "doing something about it" if the import restrictions are not removed; and that the question should be raised what further action Canada might take to support the stand which the Administration is now taking vis-a-vis Congress. 108Voir/See Public Papers of the Presidents of the United States: Harry S.
