Trump Targets Canadian Dairy Industry

 
Canada's dairy industry was targeted by U.S. President Donald Trump on Tuesday during a speech made to factory workers in Wisconsin.
 
Trump singled out Canada's dairy supply management system, which he says hinders U.S. farmers.
 
Dairy producers in Wisconsin and New York have been lobbying the U.S. government for action after Canada recently decided to impose import taxes on ultra-filtered milk, which is a liquid concentrate used to make cheese. The milk had been duty-free since NAFTA was introduced in 1994, but the Canadian government changed the rules after hearing complaints about prices from dairy farmers in Ontario.

At a time when disease pressure continues to challenge pork production systems across the United States, vaccination remains one of the most valuable and heavily debated tools available to veterinarians and producers.

Speaking at the 2025 Four Star Pork Industry Conference in Muncie, Indiana, Dr. Daniel Gascho, veterinarian at Four Star Veterinary Service, encouraged the industry to return to fundamentals in how vaccines are selected, handled and administered across sow farms, gilt development units and grow-finish operations.

Gascho acknowledged at the outset that vaccination can quickly become a technical and sometimes tedious topic. But he said that real-world execution, not complex immunology, is where most vaccine failures occur.
