Default More cheese thanks to CETA.

Well I guess most of us will be pleased that we will now have access to another 16 thousand tonnes of fine cheese from Europe.

Canada carves out more European cheese for retailers after EU concerns - Politics - CBC News

I assume Dbd33 will be monitoring the price of cheese once the deal kicks in.
The first duty-free cheese could arrive as early as October.

What happens to BE if we don't have the price of cheese to complain about anymore?

I don't know what cheese costs now. It's like petrol, I know I'm going to buy it so there's no point fretting about the price. For me the issue with cheese in Canada is availability, not cost. I doubt CETA will make quality cheese available beyond the end of the tram car lines.

I don't trust the government to make this work. We could run a pool on what the result will look like in the store.

Probably more rubber like cheese? Cheese is good in Quebec though isn't it?
