Maple Leaf Meats, says that because of "lean" pork sales overseas, they are going to hike the prices here at home. WTF? Why should we have to pay to keep the CEOs in their bonuses and perks. Get off your asses and do some creative marketing. Get the foreigners to buy pork, because it's "safer" than chicken. Nothing was said about how the farmers were making out. Just how Maple Leafs bottom line was hurting.
With MadCow hurting our farmers, driving their beef prices down, I never really saw the break at the grocery store, when the sellers should have lowered the price to boost the sales here in Canada, to help support the farmers. No instead, the middleman and the seller still made their profit margin, at the expense of the Canadian farmer.
