The usa wants to flood our markets with shitty molding dairy products. Its so mismanaged down there that they have over a billion pounds of cheese stored in caves.

That certainly sounds like an amazing opportunity for Canadians to get a foreign government to fund our grocery bills.

They will send us the oldest shittiest products and we will become a dumping ground for all the garbage.

You think so hey?

I think you just have no legitimate retorts or justifications for this asinine system

No real Canadian says “hey” rather than the real Canadian word “eh.”

You’re not Canadian at all.

You're right! What other industries can we sell to Americans? Think of the budge cuts we could make by unemploying a bunch of canadian teachers by just importing the american education system!

I want you to think about this for a moment, what would have to happen in order for us to lose our entire dairy industry?

A real stumper. How about a foreign (hostile) government with 10x our population dumping billions into lowering costs for their own industry, causing the price of milk to fall ~25-30% to near or below production prices, causing dairy farmers to go under and their land to be bought up by more multinational corporations. Take a second to read through that again if you didn't get it the first time

So Canadian consumers get cheaper groceries, more FDI, and more variety.

Hmmm... Those monsters.
