[QUOTE="klein, post: 985046, member: 23950"] Opposite in Quebec : Quebec is the only jurisdiction in Canada where yellow margarine is banned. The province, which is backed by the $1.7-billion milk industry, says it the law protects its large dairy industry. The argument is that if margarine resembles butter, it will take the market share from butter because it is about half the price. Guylaine Gosselin of the Quebec Milk Producers Association, says they don't mind if margarine is coloured, as long as it isn't the same colour as butter. [COLOR=#0000CD](sofar Quebec only has natural white margarine, and actually looks like lard). ! [/COLOR] She said that since Ontario allowed yellow margarine in 1994, butter sales in the province have dropped by seven per cent while in Quebec, butter sales have increase by six per cent in the same period.
