Canada's supply management system / Khamla Heminthavong.: YM32-2/2018-42E-PDF
"In Canada, supply management is a way for farmers - and more specifically, those who produce milk, chickens and eggs - to control, through a marketing system, the supply or quantity of their commercial products. In order to market their products, producers must hold a permit, commonly known as "quota," without which they would not be able to sell their products to a processing plant. This paper presents the origins of supply management in Canada, the regulatory framework in which it operates and its three pillars: production control, pricing mechanisms and import control. It also briefly discusses the concerns raised about certain recent international agreements"--Introduction, p. 1.
