The reason why us Canadians protect our dairy is because American milk is fucking G R O S S. Its full of chemicals, hormones, antibiotics and nonsense. Modern America is synonymous with cutting corners these days in seems due to late stage capitalism.
Plus, Americans feed chicken shit to cows. This is why you have bird flu in your cattle and Canada doesn't. Our food laws are VASTLY more stringent and most of our food isn't poison due to the fact our healthcare is socialized. It's in our best interest to keep people healthy to cost the country as little as possible. We got slapped with mad cow back in the day and we banned feeding ANY animal byproducts to animals pretty much.
Brave's LEO does a nice summary - Broiler litter, consisting of chicken droppings and bedding, can be used as a relatively inexpensive source of protein and minerals in cattle feed, particularly for brood cows and stocker cattle. However, it's important to note potential health concerns and ensure proper management to avoid risks like copper toxicity and disease transmission

Canada's dairy is better because laws regarding food production are stricter - see our eggs haven't gone up like yours has. Personally, the US can take the entire dairy industry and boof it. We do have bird flu here but strangely, it's not as bad because our eggs aren't produced by mega corps on one site - they are smaller, more numerous sites as far as I know. Our largest producer made 470k "units of egg quota" in 2016, but the true numbers of eggs or hens aren't known. Compare that to Cal-Maine Foods who has 42.2 MILLION laying hens as of late 2024.
There are a lot of good things America has that Canada doesn't, but the MAIN thing that protects us from poisonous food is our socialized healthcare, because again, nobody really benefits by having people sick and in bed here. In America, doctors are essentially rewarded for iatrogenic effects - that is to say, doctors are rewarded for causing MORE problems resulting in longer hospital stays, etc costing more money to the patient.
Do I want guns? Sure. Do I want American style freedom? sure. I wouldn't mind becoming American for the right reasons but this trump shit has got to stop. Canada did nothing wrong except agree to a trade deal that trump designed. We do have tariffs on American dairy but they only kick in after a certain dollar value which has NEVER BEEN REACHED. Canadians do not want American dairy because we all know its G A R B A G E.
I do agree Trudeau was a cuck, I do agree that Canada has been complacent lately - but really we have been peacekeepers for a looong time until Trudeau came in. He has hurt our country more than Trump EVER could. Carney is a globalist WEF prick, and Poilievre is a fucking clown who really can only spout 3 word "verb the noun" phrases and was completely caught flat footed but Trudeau's resignation. The sheer lack of agility or mental acuity to change up his attacks by Poilievre tells me all I need to know about the quality of his politics. I told my American friends there is no winning your last election, and I'm here today to tell you now that lies with Canadians. We will not win, things will not get better, in Canada, things usually always get worse (at least during my life).
With Regards to invasion - Adam, I am trying to figure out any wars American has WON by themselves on their own merit - and I am struggling to figure out which ones? I only bring this up because if America couldn't beat Afghanistan or North Korea or Vietnam, they wouldn't beat us in guerrilla warfare either. America draws wars out, they protract them to feed the military industrial complex but they don't actually win them. America has never faced such a similar foe and the last time ya'll tried this - we smacked you. Lotta Canadians with dual citizenship and a lot of nice soft targets in America for sure!
If Canada has any sense at all, it should be propagandizing blue states and push America towards civil war. It really shouldn't be hard these days to get America to fall. That's what I would do, because that's what Trump is doing to us. If an invasion happens, we should also delete all military and citizenship records, and hack the US Government and do the same thing with American records - it shouldn't be hard considering musk is the dumbest fuck on the face of the planet. Twitter got hacked because he had publicly visible servers that were easily accessible. If he's that careless with his own company, all American records should not be hard to access and delete. Good luck sorting out who's who after that!
Anyways, love your show, love you and john - you guys kept me sane during covid and continue to keep me sane through all this stupid insanity. I've been listening for a while now, and while I haven't donated, I hit everyone in the mouth. I got a few family members and friends onto your show.
