The Canadian Cattlemen's Association says the U-S appeal of the WTO's COOL ruling is a stall tactic.
President Dave Solverson argues it just means a little longer wait for the battle to be over.
He points out the appeal is the last procedural option the U-S has before Canada can exercise it's right to retaliate.
While disappointed with the appeal, Solverson admits it was expected.
The CCA figures we could get a decision on the appeal as early as spring of 2015.
