Why would we give up our dairy quota system when the US continues to heavily subsidise certain agricultural industries; grain, sugar, etc etc as well as protecting its softwood lumber industry? With food prices set to rise its time Canada promoted its fresh fruit and vegetable market so we are less reliant on US produce. Just because we don't have a trade agreement doesn't mean we can't trade, we just don't have the threat of a corporate suit hanging over our head if theBbig Boys don't make the profits they were expecting.  True free trade would be just that; trade with no indecipherable multi pages book of legalese that makes the lawyers rich at the expense of consumers.
