He’s a worry, this boy

Written by 

If you are a Canadian dairy farmer you should be worried.

President Donald Trump has set his sights on the Canadian dairy industry, blaming Canada for unfair practices that hurt American dairy producers.

Trump targeted Canada’s dairy industry last week during a trade speech he made in Wisconsin, the heart of America’s dairy industry.”In Canada, some very unfair things have happened to our dairy farmers,” Trump said.

He specifically mentioned Canada’s dairy supply management system, which he called a “one-sided deal” that doesn’t let US farmers compete fairly.

Canadian farmers believe Trump will make a move soon.
