TFA?

Hi all, I'm wondering if this article would be suitable for Today's Featured Article on the Main Page in October of this year or next year. I mentioned the article as a possibility at WT:TFA, and one person said that it looks "rough". Thoughts? I have no objection to some kind of formal article-vetting process at WP:URFA or elsewhere if that's needed, but I see a lot of conscientious editors in the edit history ... so, I'll leave it up to you folks. - Dank (push to talk) 22:40, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

:{{ping|Guerillero}} What were your specific concerns? Nikkimaria (talk) 01:17, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

::Hi Nikki, good to see you. Btw, apologies, I had it on my to-do list to make this post asking about a possible TFA rerun, but it didn't get done until yesterday ... oops. I really like this article and I think it would be good for October, but there's no rush ... next October would work just as well, if anyone wants more time to work on it. - Dank (push to talk) 17:21, 17 July 2023 (UTC)

::I just got a request to move this TFA rerun to July 1 or July 2 ... works for me, but I'm open to other ideas. - Dank (push to talk) 15:26, 20 July 2023 (UTC)

Almost a year later: I've checked the edits since mid-July, nothing jumps out at me as a problem. I'll read this through again tomorrow, but at the moment it looks good to go for TFA. Any objections? I'm planning to schedule this one (on July 2 ... Flag of Canada will be on the 1st) as soon as Wehwalt finishes up June, which will be soon. - Dank (push to talk) 05:19, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

Statistics

[https://www.statcan.gc.ca/o1/en/plus/7493-maple-syrup-canadas-gift-world Maple syrup: Canada’s gift to the world] (like all statscan pages it has open rights copyright)

In 2023, Canada produced over two-thirds of the world's maple syrup, with most being exported to 68 countries, primarily the United States, which received $376 million worth, mainly going to Illinois, California, and Vermont. Canada's exports to Europe were significant, totaling $163. 4 million, with Germany, France, and the UK as the top markets. In 2023, Canadian producers harvested 10. 4 million gallons of maple syrup, down 40. 1% from 2022 due to severe weather affecting production. Despite a dip in exports, shortages were offset by using Quebec's maple reserves, now at their lowest level since 2008 Moxy🍁 04:54, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
