I wasn't even aware there was a strategic reserve of maple syrup.

Slow spring = more sap.

Ideal syrup weather is warm days, cold nights. The sap rises and falls with the temperature. Once it rises and stays up long enough to reach the buds on the tips of the branches, the chemistry changes and the sap goes bad for syrup purposes, and that ends the season.

Not only is there a maple syrup reserve, there was a famous heist about ten years ago in which nearly 10,000 barrels were stolen:
