Representatives from the American Farm Bureau say that the judge who granted R-CALF the injunction to keep Canadian cattle out of the US was wrong. They have submitted a brief to that supports the USDA's opinion that the border between Canada and the US should be ope to beef.
It is about time that someone down there started thinking about something more than money and started fighting the truth. From a scientific standpoint the border should of been open long ago, but politically, in the US it would be better for the border never to be open. Finially, one for the Good Guys.
Sure wish that free trade would really start to kick in in this sector....

I think canadians should be buying more of our own beef and give a big fuck you to the USA. REALLY NOW there is 30 million of us, and damn it we have enough farmers we should be supporting them and not relying on the bastards below the 49th
I make a point of buying Alberta beef and those damn cute westerns girls love you for it.

Yeah I am sure there isnt ANY BSE in the USA. I highly doubt some reports get published.
BSE is just one of many problems. Also lobbying groups representing food industry (in US) are so influential. FDA is not doing what it's supposed to be doing, etc. etc. The whole situation related to this is becoming more like corruption at large.
