U.S. Senator Charles E. Schumer visitied Anderson Farms, a dairy farm in Avon to call on U.S. trade officials to secure a level playing field with Canadian producers during the renegotiation of the North American Trade Agreement (NAFTA). You say in recent years, Canada has established dairy pricing policies and has maintained high tariffs that have effectively created a “Dairy Wall” stopping most U.S. dairy products from accessing Canadian markets and distorting global trade. Dairy farmers and producers, like Anderson Farms, have been severely hurt by Canada’s manipulative trade practices and it will only get worse without action. Schumer will say that the time to secure a level playing field with Canada by expanding market opportunities and eliminating Canada’s unfair pricing policies is now and we cannot let this opportunity go to waste.
