Its a cartel. But, honestly, the quality of Canadian diary is one of the few things Canada has going for it. I remember first tasting sour cream in the US - yuck. I thought Id accidentally bought the light versions.
(In cheese the US regains the advantage though - Quebec cheese is decent , but doesn't hold a candle to European cheeses that are available in US grocery stores for much lower prices)
- nucleardog 3y agoAlso like… what sort of dairy industry would we have otherwise? The US is right next door to… everywhere here. Anything we can do, they can _probably_ do cheaper. Do we want access to basic staples to be at the whim of US policy and production? I know we’re basically joined at the hip anyway (our economy is basically as a cheaper source of manufacturing and services for the US… and resource extraction for the US), but if we want to keep up the idea of being a separate nation it’s probably good we can at least provide basic staples for our own populace.
