All of the trading ports in Mexico used by the Chinese and others would not be possible if the trucking industry could not easily transport to the US and Canada from Mexico.

Therefore, there will never be any retaliation, since to do so would be to ruin the stream of cash they get from having large ports which do not have the same regulations as we have in the US. It might even make some shipments be off-loaded directly into the US ports.

Yes, but they are used by American truckers, rail and air carriers. Until Mexican truck drivers and truck companies follow the same rules, they can stay out. You don't see Canadian truck drivers following their own rules, in fact they aren't even allowed to pick up loads and deliver them within the states at all. They are allowed one load into the USA and one load back to Canada. They have to follow all our regulations (10 hours on, 10 hours off for example) and face stiff fines for violating them.

I'm sure they would really appreciate Mexican drivers stealing their loads back into Canada, not having to follow all the rules and regulations, licencing fee's etc. while they run empty back to Canada.
