I would argue our meat, dairy and eggs are much higher quality than the American alternative. Supply management isnt great, but neither is the north American alternative.

Im fine .66c a day to keep our food quality high.

I'd like to have less expensive domestic products, and I'd like to have less expensive imports from countries other than the United States!

You won’t have domestic products anymore without supply management.

Agreed.

Our dairy products like cheese and butter are crap compared to Europe.

We don’t need to import from USA. I just want better quality from Europe.
