We all know what dairy costs there compared to us but that's because the consumer in the USA pays twice, once in the store and once to the government. We started paying subsidies to dairy farmers because of the TPP last year. Canada just entered the global tax subsidy race, and the dairy industry got the first golden egg.
It seems we pay either way. Either higher prices because of the marketing boards, or taxes to subsidize the farmer. I would choose the second, since the better off pay more than the poor.
