This is crazy that he is being fined for raw milk. I grew up on a farm in Sask where it is illegal to bake a loaf of bread from wheat I grew myself, that had not gone through the Canadian Wheat Board. I can not even sell a chicken or an egg to my 80 year old neighbor, because it interferes with the quota monopoly. This is COMMUNISM. I applaude Stephen Harper for abolishing the WheatBoard monopoly, debating milk and egg monopolies, and I applaude MichaelSchmidt for his fight for freedom.
Regarding the bureaucrat and his straw-man argument about E-coli possibly in raw milk: it could possibly be in any food we consume - so what? It makes no more sense to ban raw milk than it does to ban raw carrots or lettuce. In fact, statistically there has probably been more illnesses caused by E-coli on lettuce than in raw milk.
I think that Michael should have the freedom to have the cows,milk, and sell his product. People should have the freedom to choose if they want to buy raw milk. In todays world people are aware of any potential danger concerning the consumption of raw milk and if that is what they want it is not the govenments business to make choices for them.
