Oooh, okay. Thanks!

I think I'm too close to the story lol. They report on the strength of the season and the strategic reserves every year. It's significant to the local economy. This phrasing is standard, not riffing off other world events.

Some examples:

Global maple syrup shortage forces Quebec to release half its strategic reserve https://globalnews.ca/news/8410985/global-maple-syrup-shortage-forces-quebec-to-release-half-its-strategic-reserve/

Canada's maple syrup reserve hits 16-year low https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-68657703
