Quoting the article:'Is the sovereignty of Canada going to fall apart if we standardize the jelly bean? You know, I don't think so,' he said.'
But if I want to buy CANADIAN jelly beans instead of American jelly beans, where will I find them after this standardization? What if I prefer MEXICAN jelly beans? Where would I go to find those after 'standardization'.
There is a lot more to this than meets the eye. So long as the producers are not mixing something dangerous into their jelly beans, why should there be any concern on the part of any one of the three governments?
Either this story has been grossly oversimplified, or these guys are up to no good. Well, okay. Both conditions may obtain. It could be that the article is oversimplified and our politicians are up to no good. Business as usual, what?
