The CBC reported that Canada’s strategic maple syrup reserve has run dry, primarily due to a massive surge in global demand combined with recent poor harvest years.

The depletion was heavily accelerated by international buyers – particularly in the United States – who aggressively stocked up on bulk supplies to get ahead of threatened tariffs from the Trump administration.

Will the tariff horrors never cease? :eek:

Maple syrup is vegan food lacking in vitamin B12. I’m sure the majority of the world’s population wouldn’t see it as a necessity, and if anything would want to avoid it.

Call me a heathen, but I prefer corn syrup... 😋
Yeah, I have not had maple syrup for years. Too lazy to make pancakes and the Golden Griddle down the road closed years ago.
Having said that, pancakes with maple syrup is nice but not as healthy as my homemade cereal.
