Canadians are paying more for their daily protein shake as whey prices soar amid trade war with US, but is there any relief in sight?

In Canada, the surge in whey protein prices can be attributed to a spike in global demand alongside decreasing availability. The situation is worsened by import tariffs from the U.S. that challenge consumers and businesses alike to adapt. A growing number of individuals are turning to whole foods or plant-based alternatives, prompting manufacturers to revise their pricing tactics. Analysts predict that elevated prices will persist over time.
