Is USMCA a good deal for all?

Probably too early to tell, dairy farmers are upset, but I think the writing was on the wall and concessions were going to be made. I'm more concerned about reports that prescription costs might be rising for Canadians.

Listening to one dairy farmer he was saying. What's the point of feeding these animals if we won't be selling their product.

He was some mad. Allowing 3% of the market to the US is not small. We will see over time as you say

Probably about the best deal we could get, under the circumstances. I've read most of the details and for the most part, it's the status quo; I'll take all of that as a win, TBH. BC wines took a bit of a hit, but it doesn't look like anything that will upset the local market.

Doug Ford is whipping the hell out of him here (despite all the noise about Quebec, Ontario has the most dairy farms in the country), despite the deal saving the auto sector which is still a shit-load of Ontario's economy.

The farmers and their cartel can kiss my ass, though. I'm all for protecting American market-flooding but a system that artificially inflates the cost of something as important as milk to the point it does is just plain bad in my opinion.

In my riding of North Cowichan, 10 votes decided the mayoral race and a Trump prototype got in :(
