Found a little more detail of the process in Canada. I have a feeling any unpasteurized milk from the US would fail our current standards very early on if it had to travel more than 300km, or possibly less.

EDIT: In fact I think the initial quality test before the truck starts moving is enough disincentive for any US farm to even consider shipping it here, if they wont even be paid if it fails.

Ontario mostly consists of comparatively small dairy farms as opposed to massive 'factory' farms. Way back in the day when I was with our police service's planning unit, I was sent to a meeting on 'geo-mapping' (for some reason - I had no clue of the topic). This was long before public GPS nd in the very early of things like 911 house numbers. One of the participants was the Ontario Milk Marketing Board. They were very keen on maximizing the efficiency of their truck routes to ensure a truck could be filled and still get to the dairy on time.

This one was particularly well made, however I noticed the body movements were looping and the facial expressions seemed out of place at certain points.

AI unfortunately strikes again.
