No. Consumers get high quality poultry, egg and dairy products at reasonable prices. The retail price evolution of these products is in line with that of other food products in Canada. Moreover, regular cross-border surveys have shown that consumers pay less in Canada than in the U.S. for the same basket of dairy products. The price of eggs is also lower in major Canadian cities than in equivalent American cities surveyed. At the same time, dairy, poultry and egg farmers receive their income from the sale of their product, not from government cheques.
