[QUOTE="Alberta farmer, post: 597371, member: 8978"] Oltimer: In Canada we expected to find more cases. Doesn't seem to even make the news up here anymore. I hope the CFIA is doing their job and catching these cattle? I hope the USDA is doing the same? We have a funny system up here. The CFIA and our cattle associations won't let us test everything so everything is safe. Probably has a lot to do with the expense? I understand you have the same problem down there where one packer wanted to test and the USDA wouldn't let them? Kind of makes you wonder "What is the problem?" If someone wants to test why can't they? Apparently a live BSE test isn't that far off, but it seems the Canadian government has been dragging its feet and doing nothing to speed things up with the private company(and the University of Alberta)...for whatever reason! I would think the CFIA and the USDA would be doing everything in their power to insure a safe product? Who nows why they aren't? Politics? [/QUOTE]
