I listen to radio stations in Ontario and recently they've been talking about how Quebec is making moves (again) at independence from Canada.
Also there was never any milk shortage in the US. Last year there was a big news story about how a dairy had to dump a bunch of milk, but it was misrepresented as being something that caused a shortage. But people in the dairy industry were mad at the story because they said that the thing the news reported on was a standard practice and wasn't what they said.
No offense to my fellow Québécois, but just like Texas will never secede from the US, Québec's sovereignty will never come to pass and will remain part of Canada for centuries to come. Not sure why you even brought that up in the first place, but hey, I'm already here, so might as well add fuel to the flame.
Anyway, I don't know who exactly said that dumping milk is "standard practice", but that's quite the misconception. The dumping of milk has indeed happened before, but it has happened on a case-by-case basis (i.e. bad weather, a sudden glut, or when supply goes bad). Farmers were forced to dump milk on a level that was previously unheard of, for the first time in decades for many. The fact the pandemic struck during flush season and schools and restaurants closed their doors didn't help the situation much. The dairy industry was already in a frangible state, too, so the pandemic was a crushing blow. As far as I read, the dairy industry was also impacted in Canada since farmers also had to dump milk.
Going back to what
leonefamily said, American milk isn't exactly an exemplary product, especially when we take into consideration all the processing stages behind its production, it's pretty much a watered down supplement. Then again, milk isn't exactly the elixir it has been made out to be, anyway, so...
