[QUOTE="skcatlman, post: 424456, member: 5562"] OT when are you going to stop blaming canadians for the US based multinational packers taking over the canadian beef trade and packing industry. :roll: :roll: :roll: They are the ones who developed the north american beef herd concept and you still say it is canadian beef producers who are causing the problem. The reason this has occured is that the US dollar was much higher than the canadian dollar and we did honor trade agreements and thus could not act as protectionists as some do. As for challenging COOL hurting canadian beef sales, when we test for bse we find it because we test high risk cattle volentarily while evidence shows that in the US companies doing the testing submit tests from UTM cattle that are low risk (showing no neurological signs) and OTM high risk cattle (showing clinical signs of neurological disease) are put into the human foodchain untested. Some call it gambeling but the truth is it isn't gambeling but just a matter of time before this comes back to bite the US cattleman. You can deny but time will show that the US cowherd has a serious problem with BSE. SPP? I wonder why bush wants canadians and mexicans help out, maybe because he realizes that a billion dollars in trade per day with canada is important, don't forget canada is one of the largest trading partners with the US. Maybe others should come to that realization as well. Oh well the US will do what ever it wants. [/QUOTE]
