Customs strike - real or not?

I saw on the news that customs are maybe going to not collect duty at the border on Monday as a protest, is this real or just a cruel trick and they're actually doubling their effort to get people like me with a carful of loot?! If it is happening, is it at all borders - anyone know how I can find out?

That could very well be because they are not Border Guards, they are Customs Officers. :D
