[QUOTE="skcatlman, post: 333636, member: 5562"] Show me where i said R-CALF put out a press release. I said you, other R- CALFer's and SDSGA. R-CALF obviously would not make a press release because there could be reprecussions and it would impune their reputation when they comment on rule 2. I have no problem with outspoken individuals as long as they deal in facts and not speculation. I understand people fear what they do not know. I personally think fear mongering won't help when it comes to the rule 2. The USDA will hear from concerned groups but they will have to bring facts to prove their concerns are valid. This mix up will help the border open under rule 2. Remember that when the comment period is over. As far as how long the investigation took that is your problem with your government agency. And as far as the CFIA and CCIA not releasing the canadian producers name, and slowing down the investigation, how did that slow down the investigation? The USDA had the tag numbers on the import papers they did not need any more information from the CFIA. I know you have a position, but what was requested from canada would not have sped up the investigation. It would have only provided fooder for a witch hunt. In short the system worked and it seems that your concern is the speed of how it works. As far as tracking, the USDA had all the imfo they needed, and took their time to make sure the allegations were true. They did track where the cattle came from. And with your concerns of packer/producer disputes that has nothing to do with canada and that is what the SDSGA and R-CALF should be focusing on. By the way the US market is in a deficite when it comes to the grind market, so yes you do need more cattle to fill that market because US producers want to get more money from the export market. The US is in a good position as there is a good supply of cattle in close proximity to fill that demand that the US produce does not want to fill. The benefit is for the consumer. [/QUOTE]
