Another interesting fact I read somewhere is that 223,571 cows were slaughtered in Canada in 2012. Nearly 100% of the cows raised for veal in Canada are dairy calves. With more than 24,000 tonnes of veal, we'll be ready for an eager European market that is willing to pay more than $10,000 per tonne. Dairy farmers stand to benefit financially from access to this profitable and hungry European market. How can dairy farmers be opposed to access to this market? And how will this impact negatively? I'm trying to understand.
