    On paper that sounds amazing but I’m sure someone will come up with a reason it’s not.

  2. I get Canola and Lobsters but the last time I checked beef prices are out of control because we don’t have enough of it. Cannot think shipping some to China is going to help with that issue.

    Hold on.

    We have been facing insanely high beef costs – because there isn’t enough beef.

    Why are we shipping any of it if we apparently don’t have enough for Canadians?

  4. Selling all of our housing AND food to China! Guys this is great for Canada Carney is a fiscal genius!

  5. That’s nice for China. Can’t wait to pay 200 for a ribeye that isn’t transparent.

  6. Damn. Due to cost, my beef consumption is already limited to 1-2lbs of ground beef every few months when I find it heavily discounted.

  7. As usual…let’s not help Canadians at the register. China can fly a kite. Our beef prices are terrible yet we ship it out…kind of like our oil and lumber. Let’s sell it unrefined…Our government is a failure.

  8. This is why we need more competition in Canada for our beef producers, hopefully the government will continue their efforts to negotiate a trade deal with Mercosur. I personally can’t wait for all these greedy beef farmers to start crying about having deal with increased competition from other countries.

    So China finally gets more Canadian beef because the beef between 2 countries are no more

    And again the liberals help the Alberta cattle producers. First there was mad cow disease in 2003 and now this.

  11. Beef is expensive to raise. The biggest problem in Canada is that feed is required due to winter and global corporations control feed cost. Agriculture products in NA are controlled by 3-4 mega monopolies.

  12. China this
    China that

    We are in the middle of getting unfucked from trade alliance with one superpower and our response to go run to another? Are we insane?
