Maryland to Go Benefited by Reciprocity With Canada
Maryland stands to gain from a proposed mutual reciprocity with Canada. The plan would free Maryland fruit such as cantaloupes grapes apples pears and peaches from duty and extend duty free access to fresh vegetables and early potatoes. Canning products and preserved foods would see reduced rates, aiding Maryland’s canning industry valued at about $13 million yearly. Shellfish and fish would enter Canada duty free, and US meat duties would drop to 1 cent per pound, lowering living costs. Cream separators from Canada would also face no duty, boosting farm equipment access.
