    Is the dairy tariff he's talking about anything out of the ordinary? It sounds like a lot phrased that way. Curious as to what the full story is about that.

      Here in Canada we have had tariffs on other countries dairy products since the 70's in order to protect the Canadian dairy industry and set specific standards for the products of it. There is a cap for importers where if they only bring in small amounts of dairy, the tariff is about 7.5%, but if it exceeds a certain amount, the tariffs do skyrocket to between 241% and 300%.

        American "dairy" doesn't usually qualify as food under Canadian law. Too many steroids and antibiotics.

          Haha, yeah, and I think our beef also doesn't qualify for import in Europe if I recall correctly.
