Les vaches canadiennes ont notamment souffert de la concurrence des vaches laitières importées, qui sont plus productives en termes de quantité. Mais pour leurs défenseurs, elles n'en sont pas moins rentables, en raison notamment de leur grande rusticité : elles sont robustes, vivent longtemps, mangent peu et sont appréciées pour leur facilité de vêlage.
