Does Canada not test the food coming in? That's a bit scary.

    Of course there is testing. But it's done statistically. Nobody inspects every single package of anything that enters any country.

    And, historically, there has also been some level of trust in the inspections that happen at the production stage. But with all the cuts that DOGE and RFK have made to food safety assurance in the USA, that is no longer trustworthy adding extra levels of burden to import insections.
