They also left out a another key point. Trumps renegotiation of NAFTA into USMCA created significant restrictions on importing formula from Canada.
> Absurdly, provisions were added to the United States‐ Mexico‐ Canada Agreement (USMCA) to restrict imports of formula from Canada, supposedly because China was investing in a baby food plant in Ontario, and this new production might eventually enter the U.S. market (heaven forbid!). [1]

- arcticbull 4y agoOh I’m sorry I must have missed that. Thanks for pointing it out.
- ngcc_hk 4y agoReally want a chinese infant formula… you guys are not joking.
- arcticbull 4y agoWhat an absurd statement. It's a factory in Ontario with a foreign investor, subject to Canadian CFIA oversight. Literally everything you rely on to live your life is made in China, this is a very strange place to draw the line as children are dying.
