I don’t understand why those would cost 40%+ more. We produce these products here, and they are subsidized, so what exactly accounts for such a disproportionate consumer cost?
And these same products are not supply managed in other countries? If not, how come? If so, why are Canadian consumers paying a disproportionately high amount for them?
Cost of living is a lot worse now than it was 50 years ago. The internet also reveals how broken things are, much faster than news on cable TV in the 70s and 80s.
Not that I think anything will change, but it seems clear that something needs to.

This sounds like pretty traditional subsidies.

It really sounds like we (Canada) needs to revisit how this is done. Sounds like a terrible system, and consumers are losing big time.

Perhaps stories like this one will change people’s minds.
