Now that China has cancelled all meat imports, prices for meat should be dropping - But they aren't. In fact - they will be going up to make up for the lose of profits overseas.
Absolutely pathetic the lengths the Canadian government goes to to keep the free market away from Canadian stomachs.
the leafs faked certificates in regards to the safety of the meat, probably due to racism and cutting costs and now china's banning all meat products from canada
Camden Walker
Why did they need to cut costs? They rip off their own citizens by so much more that they can afford to pay it...
Thomas Allen
a ribeye goes for half it's store value when spent on drugs or whores. you'll need two ribeyes.
>they will be going up to make up for the lose of profits overseas no they wont. its econ 101. prices go up when demand is high. now that there is lower demand you can expect lower prices.

Shame, I want to die in a food riot

The gangs are looking to smuggle meat across the border now instead of drugs. Kek.

Once someone is use to getting a certain amount of something, they're not taking a loss.
Jaxon Davis
canada doesnt have a free market for food bucko.
Charles Williams
Doubtful. China has been through this kind of shit since time immemorial.

Canadians keep on buying their fentanyl and ebay plastic trinkets tho I have been urging ppl to grow thwir own food and raise animals etc but boomers and their npc aphantasia kids would rather pay 6 maple bucks for a celery stalk
When the time comes, i will take only virginal daughters in exchange for foodstuffs

Sure, but nobody lives in the Austro-Hungarian empire anymore.
>the money is fiat >the taxation is progressive >the producers are subsidized

Then you'll have a bunch of mouths to feed and no food, cause you traded it all away for pussy.
This isn't california, you can't grow food all year round in canada. it's called "winter time"
Noah Turner
Not gonna lie, I always thought these prices were normal in Canada. Now I am just sad and angry that I'm paying 10 times more than everyone else
John Carter
Become a vegetarian.

Just an FYI, Maxime Bernier and The Peoples Party of Canada, is literally campainging on lowering food prices
They sailed from San Francisco to Vancouver Canada. On arriving there he and two others went ashore and got drunk. When they returned the boat was gone. At that time there was a famine in Canada. Meat of any kind was from $1 to 3 Dollars a pound. So great was the suffering among the very poor that all children under 12 were sold to the Butchers to be cut up and sold for food in order to keep others from starving. A boy or girl under 14 was not safe in the street. You could go in any shop and ask for steak – chops – or stew meat. Part of the naked body of a boy or girl would be brought out and just what you wanted cut from it. A boy or girls behind which is the sweetest part of the body and sold as veal cutlet brought the highest price. John staid there so long he acquired a taste for human flesh.

>canadians cant even afford food >they still arent actually fighting back yet just what will it take?
From Uganda Billionaires Own more property than any anglo scum born here. If it wasn't for immigrants, anglo canadians would still be living like it was 1819
I just wanted to rule out the possibility that there's a more of a geographic than a political reason for the prices. Thanks for ruling this out. Would you recommend that I emigrate to Alaska?
Hunter Cox
This. I have a few canadians id like a peice of. Willing to adopt.

Last time I checked it’s between 12-20$ for that sandwich. ( yesterday)
Austin Ortiz
move somewhere else or is that too inconvenient for you?
That's not how free market works. If you're selling x of something at price y, then if suddenly you sell x/2 of something you have to double the y in order to maintain your profits.

>kgs and lbs are equal in weight When adjusted for weight it adds up to roughly 2.4$ per 1kg of chicken in the US, and 3.2$ per 1kg of chicken in Canada. Then factor in the .76 cent CAD/USD and you arrive at near equal prices.
Nicholas Perez
Save $48 a Kilo This week only ONE steak $11.49
Mason Ramirez
It's getting bad. But the retarded economists think that high food price inflation means the economy is booming.
>Absolutely pathetic the lengths the Canadian government goes to to keep the free market away from Canadian stomachs. Imagine thinking it's the government and not the middlemen just pocketing it all.

Looks like leafs are going to be hosing again soon. The Trudeau just knows how make a Canadian poor.
Modern China is not ancient China, I at least have some respect for ancient China. Modern China is a threat to the entire world
Landon Green
Is Trump going to build a northern wall to keep all of the starving leaf hordes out? Half all Canadians will be Muslim by the time the food shortages kick into full gear.
