 RM> I remember hearing about egg prices in the USA due to the bird flu or

That's interesting. Here in the states the media and the Democrats are trying to convince us that "there's a bird flu epidemic" and that "this is why egg prices are soaring."

But what you just said is an eye-opener. There can't be a "bird flu epidemic" just in the USA and not in neighboring countries; it's impossible because birds travel all over the USA and Canada all the time. If we had a "bird flu epidemic" that makes it "dangerous to step outside your door," then Canada would be experiencing it also.

Now the missing part of this puzzle is finding out who made all the money off these ridiculous egg prices.

 RM> If accurate, looking online it appears the average US price per gallon
 RM> of milk is about $3.20 and our $6.60 allowing for the dollar exchange
 RM> becomes $4.62 or so, still a lot higher..

That's about right, but the price varies in different regions. Be prepared for the day when the media declares that "birds from the USA have flown into Canada and now egg prices are soaring!" I don't wish it on you but watch out for ridiculous false news like that.
