McCormick about it.

Canada here I come  ;D
" Right now there are 7000 beekeepers, mostly family farms in Canada who tend to 600,000 hives of honeybees and depend on them to make a living. Canadians produce 75 million pounds of honey annually."

7000 Beeks... produce 75,000,000 pounds of honey= 10,714 pound per Beek
600,000 Hives ... produce 75,000,000 pound of Honey = 125 pound per hive

Now, I know why Perry's always smiling  :laugh:

125 lbs. a hive would be nice. I am betting that Alberta alone makes up for what the rest of us slackers get. ;D
