“Unfair” in that US farming subsidies aren’t being leveraged as well by US mushroom growers with strong lobbying arms.
Funny thing is, I’ve seen stories of local farmers in the US turning to the dutch method of mushroom farming to replace poultry and hog farming, and they’re doing quite well. It’s the legacy mushroom growers who are struggling.
They come up here to poach our wild mushrooms anyway, idk what they’re whining about.
Americans. That’s what they do
Who cares what the US thinks?
They think everything is unfair to them
They especially think that it’s unfair that China restricts foreign ownership. They’re frothing at the mouth at that.

Federal farm subsidies make up an average of 13.5% of net farm income.
Nearly all Canadian mushroom exports — 98 per cent in 2024 — are sold in the U.S. As B.C.’s technologically advanced mushroom industry has grown into a global leader, some American producers have accused Canadian growers of benefiting from unfair government subsidies. It’s set off a trade dispute that could reshape the cross-border market.
Depends. If they grow in cow shit and it is Gabriola Island it would be worth every penny.
OK. Well then pay cheeto-man his bribe and get your own subsidy. it’s not hard to figure it out.
