Supply management can do better, but look at Australia right now.They are suffering and they don’t have a superpower to deal with. You are voting for devastation for Canadian farmers. You know that but you still push for that. Interesting

This is BS. Farmers support rural towns and villages where they buy their feed and seed, their tractors and equipment, buildings and hire their employees. This attack on Canadian farmers, while the US feds subsidize American farmers with $$ billions totally distorts the reality. What we need are more farmers.

I've never dumped 1 single litre of milk in my life. I also manage my herd well so that i do not create this issue. Every month i buy more quota so i can produce more milk as well. If i need 60 cows to fill my quota, why would i feed 70 cows just to dump the milk?

And all that mentality has done is move our red meat processors out of country, south of the border or closed up small processors because of the “they can do it cheaper, let em do it” mentality. Not good for ensuring cdn people will have stocked shelves

I do not see how Trump can be allowed to come to the G7 in Canada in June. Never mind that we don't generally let convicted felons enter the country: how on earth do we "welcome" on our soil someone who is committed to wiping us off the map? I'm not sure there's much point in the G7 even meeting, frankly. Trump's America is no longer an ally of the democracies. That should now be clear. It may not even be a full-service democracy for long. The agenda for the other members — call them the G6 — should now be figuring out how to contain it.

The former Dean of Agriculture at Dal wrote an open letter to him calling him out for his gross misrepresentation of supply management. The guy is a quack.

@DalhousieU appears to lack credibility regarding academic standards, as shown by the "Food Professor". Is @DalhousieU a scam? What does it say about the academic credentials of people who graduate from there?

At some point, you'd think someone at @DalhousieU would have something to say about one of their colleagues choosing to impugn the academic, professional, and personal reputations of anyone and everyone who disagrees with him.

Free marketers just free marketing. The people need stronger anti-trust laws! From universities, media to regulatory authorities, the light MUST be cast to rid us of the rats that infest those halls.

Might be time for the big chains to start putting Provincially inspected products on their shelves. Let’s unleash those small regional plants that supply high quality local products. @MonteMcNaughton @fordnation

It’s funny how OPEC is lauded for colluding to limit supply, raise and stabilize prices on a non perishable product(oil) but if Canadian dairy farmers do the same with milk Trump thinks we’re communists. Hmmm

Food security experts warn of supply shortages, higher prices due to global pandemic. Federal government announces $100 million for food banks facing increase in demand, drop in donations. cbc.ca/1.5520492
