Oh Canada!

OPINION: Your canine crusader reckons the so-called lovefest between our very woke PM Jacinda Ardern and her equally woke Canadian counterpart Justin Trudeau isn’t worth a pint of sour milk.

That is especially in the case of the NZ dairy sector, where Canada still imposes high tariffs on dairy imports – even though it is a member of the CTPP trade partnership.

This means that NZ dairy exports are effectively locked out of Canada.

One would think if Ardern and Trudeau were such good, left-wing, bosom buddies – who even share plane rides together to UN talkfests – then they could negotiate an end to NZ dairy products being locked out of Canada.

However, it seems – like most things our PM is associated with – she is all mouth and no trousers when it comes to achieving anything in the real world.
