Summary

Declares that it is the sense of the Congress that the U.S. Government should take action, using existing Federal trade laws, to address the problem of Canadian wheat imports if the Secretary of Agriculture has reason to believe that wheat is being imported into the United States from Canada under such conditions and in such quantities as to tend to render ineffective, or materially interfere with, any loan, purchase, or other program or operation undertaken by the Department of Agriculture. Declares that it is the sense of the Congress that: (1) the U.S. Government should seek an immediate understanding with the Mexican Government to define certain Canadian wheat practices as unfair; (2) the United States, Canada, and Mexico should begin immediate consultations with a goal of ensuring free and fair trade in wheat throughout North America; and (3) transportation subsidies and secretive monopolistic pricing should be considered unfair trading practices.
