Cattle may freely emigrate to/from Cuba but human beings are jailed/shot for doing so.

Oh, Canada!

Cuba is a significant export market for Canada. In 2002, exports of Canadian beef and beef products to Cuba totalled more than $2.2 million.

If that's a significant export market for Canada, then they're in worse shape than I thought. The payroll loss of the Expos moving to DC dwarfs that.

Canada will be surpassing us in exports soon. While we dink around with the border closed, arguing about the need for animal ID and other forms of isolationist protectionism.
