据外媒报道，受名厨带动以及墨西哥市场的放开影响，加拿大鸭肉需求强劲，生产商扩大产量应对强劲需求。
据报道，加拿大产北京鸭的老牌生产商Brome Lake，投资3千万元，把魁北克省Asbestos地区的一座之前生产牛肉的工厂，改建为鸭生产厂。这将使在未来5年鸭年产量翻番至400万只。
为了保持竞争力，安省的鸭生产商King Cole Ducks也计划增加产量。预计Fraser Valley Specialty Poultry等三大加国鸭生产商，目前的550万只鸭的年总产量将被翻番。
鸭作为亚裔社区的美食，产品在不断地更新。尽管鸭肉的价格比鸡肉还贵，但它正在逐步取代价格暴涨的牛肉。

MonTREAL — Despite a surge in cheap imports, Canadian duck producers are planning to boost production due to growing consumer demand spurred on by celebrity chefs and the reopening of the Mexican market.
Brome Lake, the country's oldest processor of domestic Pekin duck, is spending $30 million to build a facility in a former beef plant in Asbestos, Que., that will double its annual production capacity in five years to four million birds.
ontario rival King Cole Ducks also plans to increase its output to stay competitive.
Canada's three largest producers, which also include B.C. supplier Fraser Valley Specialty Poultry, expect overall annual production to double from the current level of 5.5 million ducks.
