The US ranks higher than Canada in the Global Food Security Index, including in the category of Quality and Safety.
It is NOT actually the case that US food standards are lower. What is the case is that their country is desperate to convince people that US food standards are lower, as a protectionist measure. What is actually happening is that their producers, government, and media are conspiring to convince them of some serious bullshit propaganda as part of their efforts to keep the Canadian market insulated from competition with American producers that are more advanced and provide higher quality food at lower prices.
Canadians are being starved slowly. Their quality of life is in the gutter already. Canadian women have to sell their ass to make rent. Meat is a luxury. Heating your home with a woodstove is now a crime.

Is that meat from Nunavut? We don't have those prices in southwestern Ontario, even for the premium grass fed organic meats.

One of the newer memes on Jow Forums is to post prices from a store on Victoria Island and say Canada is undergoing a total economic collapse that the media is covering up.
It's actually pretty clever because it's impossible for anyone outside of Canada to verify it, and impossible for anyone in Canada to prove it wrong because by the time they go to the store and come back, the thread is dead.
Associated memes are "Post the in store prices and there will be an end to the horror" and "That's just a loss leader, post the real prices"
>Different cuts of meat >Different weights >Difference exchange rate
HOW ARE THE PRICES DIFFERENT GUYS
Christopher Ross
Oh yes, and pro tip, this "meme" is being funded by some big money think tanks here in the states. They're funding shills to push it, hoping it will catch on here.
Their goal is to make people think Canada is falling apart so they can push deregulation in the food industry here. Monsanto is the biggest funder, but there are lots of others.
Ryan Morgan
I work at a grocery store on the border in Maine. And the canadians flood the store cause its way cheaper!
Hudson Flores
I own a grocery store chain in North Dakota and half of our state's population drives across the border to Canada because American food is too shitty and expensive.
Christopher Miller
I was wondering about the powers involved in shilling this so hard. The prices in this thread are not unheard of but really rare. I do groceries multiple times a week. Most people wouldn't accept this. $5/lb for green peppers is not the norm whatsoever. It can get to about $3.99/lb when supply is low (I assume) but it usually stays at about $1.99-$2.99/lb. Fuck this gay meme.
Oliver Martin
wtf is with all this stuff about Canada supposedly starving

Gabriel Gonzalez
kek good call, I didn't check the label but this is still a shitty psyop. Y'all are fucked if you think these prices are normal.
Christian Reyes
How do you explain these prices?
Carson Walker
15.99 a lbs normal price. 15.99 x 2.2 will get you price per kg. About $35 a kg. Convert USD to CAD. $47 a kg.
Not quite sure what youre trying to prove OP.
Lucas Ward
>hurr why do prices fluctuate
Blake Myers
>expecting shills to actually put any effort in their shilling Not necessarily, because a lot of consumer product are artificial monopolies here, with numerous awkward trade deal that insure the status quo stay (With that said, that the reason why Trump went against the ALENA, it was a clusterfuck of discrepancy that only truly profited to a close knit merchant elite that could lobbies as to put absurd tariff unto the whole nation as to insure their profitibability, basically a pseudo-monopoly since by law monopoly are illegals but imposing tariff so high trade is impossible isn't, even if the end result are the exact same. Welcome to canadian justice in a nutshell and why Trump had to do what he did to force them to renegotiate the terms) and we the citizen on average just keep getting fucked, like the average grocery visit can easily goes in the 300-500 bucks a time if you ain't careful what you pick and all the shops just keep increasing their prices as time goes on.
Nolan Cruz
I wonder how many unwashed janny cocks one must fellate in order to get away with spamming the exact same b8 50 times a day every single day for 18 months and never receive a single post deletion or ban.
>fluctuate Notice how only the "high" in store prices are ever posted. There aren't "fluctuations" - Canadians pay 20% to 200% more than Americans do for the same items.
Canadians will not admit this.
Justin Green
>If leafs could afford the data, they could view the full image and see this image is from Calgary.
Lot of place in Canada have little to no mean to displace product there in an efficient manner due to the lack of roads, railroads and etc so the local price is greatly affected by it. Imagine if instead of getting a 18 wheeler worth of stuff at once to a market, you had to do 5~6 3-hour voyage back and forth for the same quantity of stuff because you can only fill a single box trailer at a time, lest you get stuck on the muddy roads to the way there? You can use plane but there are costly, and in a majority ofthe case the only thing that can land are hydroplane which can't carry that much stuff due to their size.

And quite predictably you omit the detail that I obviously do not refer to these city near the border when I'm talking about places with ''lack of roads'', because it seem kind of fucking obvious from what I wrote that it pertained to area where normal vehicle cannot effectively reach.
Holy fuck I know you're a meme flag (thus you're most assuredly a brain dead piece of shit) but could you at least bother not to be a complete fucking imbecile when you're shilling? You basically just made yourself look like a fucking idiot. Of course you'll come up with some shitty quip to save face because that all you can do and not fail pathetically at, even if it doesn't change anything to the current discussion.
It's one thing to pretend to be a retard, its another to be so much of a retard you actually fail to understand your complaint doesn't even apply to what you're criticizing.
Jonathan Evans
>prices fluctuate Gets BTFO >p-prices are normal
Notice how the Canadians don't have a straight story?
Adam Lewis
It would actually be wiser for you to admit you're paid to do this because absolutely nobody in the world could possibly be this prolific or manic of a faggot.
If it weren't for the US one being marked down as a sale item, the Canadian one is actually cheaper by 1 canadian dollar per kg.
Lincoln Cruz
>Nobody would ever want to waste hours of their time sitting on the internet pissing off faggots like you Boi do you know where you are or are you just new?
Canuck here. GF works in a supermarket and told me straight up yesterday that the prices of almost everything (Meat included) increased by $0.50 to $1.5 per kilo.
Stuff I used to pay $9.99 a year back is now almost $14. I had noticed a slow increase in prices, but ever since I started doing the groceries seriously, it occurred to me that it's been going way too fucking fast.
Meat will soon be prohibitively expensive. Hell, it already is.
Josiah Perez
thing is, you're the faggot at this current moment, its just you're severely lacking in self-awareness
Aaron King
>buying usda choice
enjoy your fucking awful steak
Oliver Morris
>N-n-no, you! Why are leafs so easily blown out? Is it malnutrition?
Maybe you're right in a general sense OP but I have personally experienced none of this. Maybe people on this board just aren't the regular Canadian.
Grayson Morgan
>the lack of roads, railroads and etc lol don't forget pipelines. Someday in better hands you'll experience the industrial revolution.
Luis Morales
lb vs kilogram idiot
Nicholas Bailey
Wrong. Most of the prices in this thread are ludicrous. The OP photo had similar prices between the US and Canada. Prices fluctuate. There is no contradiction in my statements. My intention in quoting the math user was to suggest that your idea of "20%-200%" was based on your shitty burger education.
Adam Perry
You could at least bother to be ever so slightly original so your stale shit doesn't come off as laziness, but with that said its probably too much asked form you.
Grayson Gray
Post the in store prices and the madness will stop
Jordan Thomas
that meme exists because he committed the crime of talking about food
Fucking weak-ass Trudeau, basically fucked BC of a huge source of revenue, probably did it on the payroll of foreign oil producers.

Lmao holy fuck, are you even Canadian or is it a VPN?
Hudson Johnson
Simply post the in store prices then, leaf. Why can't you post the in store prices?
Post in store prices or admit you're forever BTFO.
The Canadian is immunized against all dangers: one may call him a leaf, pussy, fag, bitch, it all runs of him like water off a raincoat. But ask him to post the in store prices (no sales or loss leaders) and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: 'I've been found out.'
I've worked at AgCan, and my sister was a policy wonk for the Dairy board.
Dairy standards are way higher in Canada. Poultry too. But US beef is better. When I'm in the States I always go for beef.
Sure, everything is expensive here. I was in Spain a while ago, in some dodgy corner groceteria giggling that everything was basically free.
Caleb Sanchez
US food quality is actually much shittier. Our education system is better too, probably why we can see that OP is clearly a retarded faggot
Cameron Robinson
Haha mutts shut down
Anthony Reed
>$5/lb for green peppers is not the norm whatsoever. It can get to about $3.99/lb when supply is low (I assume) but it usually stays at about $1.99-$2.99/lb. Fuck this gay meme. That's three dollars for *one* six-ounce pepper deek. Or two dollars in real currency.
>lb vs kilogram idiot and Monopoly money vs real currency
Jackson Jackson
If there are any white Canuck qts out there who don't want to sell themselves for rent and food, I would be willing to take care of those needs in exchange for housekeeping and raising 4-5 children.
An education system that is so great that you're not even qualified to work at McDonalds after going to school every day for twelve years. Lay off the CBC propaganda Cuck. Canada is a blue pilled to the max SJW paradise. Canadians are completely uninformed but also very smug. It's hilarious.
>Showing off old meet on sale... >Also comparing ribeye to filet mignion... >Not being able to do math Canadian price is 46.09CAD/kg American price is 15.99USD/lb 1kg = 2.20462lbs 2.20462 x 15.99 = 35.2518738USD 35.2518738USD = 47.74CAD To sum up: Better cut in Canada costs $46.09 Shittier cut in US costs $47.74 But nice cherrypicking of items on sale flaggot.
Always wondered why threads about say veganism get instantly deleted by mods, but Canadian instore prices threads are always allowed to reach bump limit
