[QUOTE="Oldtimer, post: 336902, member: 97"] [b]It is being reported on ranchers by the Canadians that this is a bull born in 2000-- which, if true, would make this another [i]POST feedban[/i] born animal and would have been born after USDA's magic date of March 1999 and would have been eligible for import to the US if Rule 2 was in place... :roll: :shock: :mad: :mad: If Rule 2 existed it could have been found in the US and could have again hurt demand for US beef... Rule 2 needs to be postponed until we get our export markets in place, M-COOL implemented so US consumers know the origin of the beef they are getting and can make an informed choice on whether they want to buy this imported higher risk beef, and Canada gets a handle on their feedban....... [/b] -------------------------------------------- CattleNetwork_Today 2/7/2007 5:47:00 PM Cattle Alert: [b]BSE Confirmed In Alberta, Canada[/b] OTTAWA, February 7, 2007 - [b]The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has confirmed the diagnosis of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in a mature bull from Alberta.[/b] The animal's carcass is under CFIA control, and no part of it entered the human food or animal feed systems. Preliminary information indicates that the age of the animal falls well within the age range of previous cases detected in Canada under the national BSE surveillance program. This signifies that the animal was exposed to a very small amount of infective material, most likely during its first year of life. An epidemiological investigation directed by international guidelines is underway to examine what the animal was fed early in its life and to identify its herdmates at the time. All findings will be publicly released once the investigation concludes. Under Canada's enhanced feed ban, which comes into effect on July 12, 2007, BSE should be eliminated from the national cattle herd within approximately 10 years. The CFIA expects the periodic detection of a limited number of cases to continue as the level of BSE continues to decline.
