Moose, bear and venison to ease the pain.

So people aren’t starving.

They just don’t want to pay for the sirloin steak.

[BlackVeil]

Every essential item seems to be getting more expensive, all across the world, and yet commodities are dropping, income is scarce and therefore demand ought to be weak.

I guess Hillary shouldn’t visit Canada for a while. She’d make a tough but large Rump Roast.

Some imported food costs 40% more than it did just a few years ago. Canada grows most of its own meat, and that helps. Oranges, etc., are another matter.

But, hey — the Greenback goes 40% further here now; so it’s great for tourists.

Maybe it was 30 years ago ....we had a big price increase for beef and my butcher brought in horse meat. I tried it...didn’t particularly like it, although it was cheaper ...less flavorful than venison. Maybe it was the way I prepared it.

I wonder, if poaching will become a problem .

Chuck Eye is all I will pay for.

Canada is in for a rough time under the Trudeau regime.

Spent the last month in Australia, very cheap food prices, cheaper still were places like KFC and Subway.

And the food was better.

But if your life centers around the most machismo of rv vehicles from a dually truck or a Southwind class A forget it in Oz, too few and too much, frankly all vehicles are downsized but food is oversized, you buy at the market per kilo, not by pound.

Protect the wimmins 'n the chillins'

Is it *Crock Pot Thursday* already?

[Daffynition]

Ouch!

"Canada is in for a rough time under the Trudeau regime."

Elect a Socialist, economies tank - it has always been thus.
Un-educated South American populations keep falling for it, but would expect a 1st World populace like Canada to know better.

[JEDI4S]

Awwwww...they elected a leftist/socialist/we are the worlder and this happens.

Whodah thunk it?

Well if they run short on meat...there are some tasty “refugees” overrunning the place sooooooo....

Bye Cananada.....

[samtheman]

Ok. There went my breakfast.

[Slambat]

“Moose, bear and venison”

State property. Will the state allow it? I think they would
much rather their subjects go vegan and loose a little
weight than to allow them to hunt for themselves. The last
thing Canaduh needs is any show of independence and self
preservation in their stock of perfectly conditioned serfs.

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

Chuck Eye is actually pretty. It’s tender, juicy, and tastes good. But they are small. I just pan fry.

[sickoflibs]

Time for beef rationing.

I know my Indian neighbors do their part by doing without.

I doubt it. Poaching is a lot of work. The people stealing meat really don't like work.
