Coated Paper Controversy: Paper Case Cuts Both Ways
In the end, the laws, which mirror the laws of the World Trade Organization, will determine the outcome. I do not like the idea that this case, like the prior case, may hinge on technicalities relating to an artificially selected time table and which items are included or excluded from the scope. But the law, imperfect though it may be, is the only tool we have to balance the issues of free and fair trade.
