  1. Canada's Sweetest Heist

    From 2011-2012, Quebec was the scene of a bizarre agricultural crime. Thieves stole nearly 3,000 tonnes of maple syrup, worth $18.7 million, from a warehouse holding the province's 'strategic reserve.' This global reserve, managed by Quebec's producers to stabilize market prices, was hit by a complex theft that required a massive investigation to unravel.

  7. The Strategic Maple Syrup Reserve

    Canada maintains a Strategic Maple Syrup Reserve in Quebec, with 77,000 barrels. Created in 2000 by the Federation of Quebec Maple Syrup Producers, this stockpile regulates the syrup supply and prices. In 2012, thieves pulled off a daring heist, stealing syrup worth $18 million in what became known as the Great Canadian Maple Syrup Heist. 🍯

  8. The old Maple trees are tapped, the sap is dripping into the bucket.
    Once boiled down there will be pancakes with maple syrup on the table, I guess.

  9. It somehow seems very Canadian that the "huge Canadian grocery companies are illegally overcharging/underweighting meat again after they got caught a year ago and promised they'd solved that 'error'" scandal is getting less press than the "some maple syrup producer in Quebec got caught selling fake maple syrup containing >50% cane sugar" scandal.

  10. Another brand hit with the fake maple syrup scandal: l’Érabeille. The cans came from the same producer, but different distributor.

    The company is recalling the products from grocery stores.

  12. This is the latest in the season that I’ve posted my maple syrup tallies. What a strange year! My previous high for the one tree we tap was 36 liters of sap. This year we had 49! 😳

    Between 2/22 - 3/10 we got 12 liters.
    Between 3/11 - 3/28 we got 37 liters.

    49 liters of sap boiled down to about 1 ¼ liters of syrup.

  13. #maplesyrup #siropérable #érable #sucre #acériculture #food #nourriture #québec #ringier Aux alentours de 2004 un type veut venir faire un reportage sur la cabane à sucre. Nous sommes en mai, pas mal fini, il vient de Suisse. Finalement, il vint l'année suivante en mars, mais il pleut, mon beau-père ne veut pas mettre son cheval à la pluie et ça ne coule pas. La vidéo fut faite avec de l'eau tout court. Les crêpes de la fin, c'est en Ontario. Passé à une émission culinaire EN ALLEMAND #suisse

  14. Temps des sucres. Courte saison cette année. C'est ce qui fait apprécier les bonnes. / Sugar time #maplesyrup #siropérable #érable #sucre #acériculture #food #nourriture

  15. A little later than usual (a not lovely migraine had me in a dark room all day).

    We're in the final stretch of the first Taste of Maple Trail by Explore WaterlooRegion. I chatted with 4 of the 21 restaurants involved who are showcasing how this favourite local harvest can be used as more than a pancake topping.

  19. A bit of a fun project this spring. This is the amount of maple syrup we produced from our single maple tree this year. A single tree, we are told, can yield .75 to 1.5 liters of pure maple syrup. So I think we did okay and look forward to our first #Pancakes. #MadeinCanada #maplesyrup #Ontario
