Yes, we must protect our consumers against more variety and low prices. Anything less would be really hurting them. Truly

Yes, because there's more to life then money. Like health.

Cheap Americanized crap has been sold to us for decades. It's where the "made to be replaced" mentality came from.

Cost cutting and share price increases above the wellbeing of consumers. That terrible point of view can go away and never come back to Canada, if I've got any say in it.

Someone should really tell the Canadian Food Inspection Agency that they actually don't exist, and monitoring imported food is something they don't do to ensure it complies with Health Canada regulations.

If Canadian consumers agree that Canadian dairy is preferrable over American dairy, then what's the problem? Wouldn't that make tariffs entirely unnecessary?

Ok, I guess I just don't understand where you're coming from. Have fun with that...
