Ontario Dairy Farmers Unhappy with International Trade Deal

The group Dairy Farmers of Ontario says the new Canada, US, Mexico trade deal is not good for producers.
 
Board member Mark Hamel says the organization doesn't like provisions allowing an increase in US imports to Canada.
 
He says they are not pleased with the United States ability to effectively cap Canadian exports.
 
 He continued to say that Canadian producers will look at ways to expand the market for dairy products in Canada.   The new NAFTA still needs to be ratified by Canada and the US.
