Canada’s dairy industry is a rich, closed club

sailor(Ocean & Mountain)
So you want to be a dairy farmer?

You buy a plot of land and a few dozen cows.

Then, you try to sell your milk to neighbours or maybe the local grocery store.

Not so fast. That’s prohibited. Canada’s dairy business – now the target of Canada’s trade rivals in the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade talks – is one of the most closeted industries in the country.

    • 加拿大的奶制品质量是绝对有保证的，包括对奶牛的管理，价格控制等。所以最价平的牛奶质量都是很好的。这对于我们生活在加拿大的人们来说，是很好的事。等那天我们被美国奶制业给和谐了，就只能买高端有机奶来安慰自己了。 -cdxoxo(riverdale); 2015-6-26 (#9529025@0)

        想起当年买车的时候发现，加拿大安省生产的汽车，打折1万刀以后，居然卖的比美国不打折的价格还要高，Plus，运费贵好多

          • 我不歧视搞基的，但搞基的天生左翼，喜欢搞大政府。所以你硬要说搞基花钱，也勉强说的通 -poptest(໒( ͡ᵔ ͜ʖ ͡ᵔ )७); 2015-6-27 (#9531983@0)
            • 不要这么勉强嘛，花点钱你破产不了 -firetrain(火车头); 2015-6-27 (#9532347@0)
      • IMHO, Canada, USA, Australia, and New Zealand, all have similar quality control on dairy products. Americans care their lives too. -sailor(Ocean & Mountain); 2015-6-27 (#9532021@0)
    • As long as I keep getting my 4L bag of milk for 4 bucks, I have no complains at all. I hope they include telecom into the trade talks, that’s where the big bucks are. -littlesweetbean(Café); 2015-6-27 (#9531429@0) +2
      • Such price does not exist in BC. 4L is $6 here. -sailor(Ocean & Mountain); 2015-6-27 (#9531451@0)
        • I guess that’s because the dairy industry is heavily concentrated in Quebec and Ontario per the article, move to the east coast. :) -littlesweetbean(Café); 2015-6-27 (#9532240@0) +1
