Whatever, if the trailer isn't in Oklahoma by now then the food is
probably already spoiled.

Canned good and dry goods are probably OK for another 2 to 5 years.


But, there really should be some way of
getting food and disaster relief across the border quickly and
efficiently because people can't go long without clean water to drink,
and life can be really miserable without food to eat, warm blankets and
Lord knows, diapers.

There is. It is called proper paperwork. Custom declarations are easy
enough to fill out. Thee were some well intentioned people that
just lacked the knowledge of international shipments. I'd lay some of
the blame on the driver too, if he has ever crossed the border.
Drivers don't leave until they have paperwork in hand and in
commercial instances, faxed to the border ahead of time.
