"Canada exported about 63 percent of its pork production last year. That does not count live exports to the United States. The export share compares to 61 percent in 2010 and just 40 percent in 2000. US export share of production last year was 23 percent compared to 19 percent in 2010 and 7 percent in 2000."

-Kevin Grier, Market Analysis and Consulting Canadian Pork Market Report, February 2020-

" In 2010 Canada supplied 20 percent of global imports. In 2019 that share had declined to just 15 percent of the world’s imports being supplied by Canada. Canada’s losses were broad-based losing share to all major markets except China and Mexico. 

Interestingly, despite the massive growth in U.S. production, it supplied about a third of global import demand in 2010 and about the same in 2019. The EU was the big global export leader as its tonnage more than doubled. It supplied 29 percent of world import demand in 2010 and 41 percent last year."
