Dear customer,
Please be advised of the yearly CP Rail embargo phase on Reefer transports into Canada and US-Midwest.
CPR will embargo all import marine containers conveying perishable traffic effective 2359hrs local time on the 13th of December 2008 through 0001hrs local time on the 29th of December 2008. This embargo includes shipments powered by clip-on generators.
