Reduce dairy prices

Re: How to save Canadian milk, Oct. 15

Strangely, the report does not seem to mention reducing the cost of dairy products to Canadians; that would be a sure way of increasing consumption. As I understand it, the dairy farmers of Canada do very well, financially, regardless of competition from outside. More sales would surely compensate for the price reduction.

It would also slow the stampede to U.S. border outlets taken by so many Canadian (for sure especially from the Greater Vancouver area) in order to avail themselves of so much “cheaper” dairy products there — when the borders reopen, that is.
