And I wonder why beef isn't considered critical to Canada's food security? Or oil to our energy security? Could it be because they are Western products?
They are if you can score political points, like Trudeau banning exports of certain prescription drugs to the US. Or like the federal government paying $35 million to 3M to expand their PPE factory in Ontario.
Production will start early this year.
