The milk is picked up by the milk truck... so it goes to wherever that goes, lol. Guelph maybe? I know there used to be a dairy there.

since I find it tad annoying by now, my stock answer is "Upper Huntley" the name of our original township, which tends to confuse people long enough, to give me time to escape.

I know that I won't loose the accent anymore. I'm ok with it, too. It's part of who I am. I'm ok that as well.

I also don't mind the question. Smalltalk is not my strongest suit, so at least there is something to talk....

What isn't shown is the chemicals and GMO's needed to produce the corn, the diesel burned, and the liquid waste lagoons, with liquid manure put on the land, which leaches into groundwater. The farmers are stuck in a "system" of reducing costs and prices and rising costs of inputs. Farmers are decent people making a living off the land, but the industrial systems now implemented have good and bad sides.
I hope he survives as more "cheap" milk from the USA gets into the Canadian system (gee thanks PM Steven Harper). The US budget for farm subsidies is bigger than the Canadian gov't budget.

Love the video, they sure look after their animals, the only thing I would like to see is the ability to go outside for at least half an hour .
