A hate just pointing at the cost, because where does that money go? What is that cost? Is it just more cash in the pockets of producers? Who then hire people to work on the farm, and all that blather?

Is it a bloated bureaucracy, which needs some trimming, but still regardless pays wages to Canadians?

Are other things wrapped into that $10B?

Also, it seems those numbers aren't just dairy, but chicken too?

And another thing (I'm full of ideas today, sorry), we don't use hormones to increase milk production, or bulk up animals. That definitely means more cost per animal. That figure seems to also include chicken meat, not just eggs. Healthy isn't necessarily free.

Look, you find horrible costs, I'll support you. I think that's fair.
