A customs dispute at the U.S.-Canada border is threatening America’s supply of a fish used for popular products such as fish sticks and fast food sandwiches.

PORTLAND, Maine — A customs dispute at the U.S.-Canada border is threatening America’s supply of a key fish used for popular products such as fish sticks and fast food sandwiches.

The agency has assessed more than $350 million in penalties to the shippers, records state. Two of the shipping companies have sued in federal court to stop the enforcement, which they characterized as heavy-handed, unexpected and unfair. Gibbons said it was unlikely the fish in cold storage would start moving Monday because it was a holiday in both countries.

The dispute is happening at a bad time for the seafood industry because the business is making preparations for the busy Lenten season, said Michael Alexander, president of King and Prince, a Georgia company that makes seafood for the food service industry. Many Christians substitute red meat for fish during Lent, and pollock is in higher demand during that part of the year. Most fast-food chains’ fish offerings, including the McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish, are made from pollock.
