[QUOTE="CattleAnnie, post: 46614, member: 220"] AMI's Boyle boosts Canadian imports in editorial by Pete Hisey on 9/22/04 for Meatingplace.com The U.S. ban on cattle imports from Canada is hurting both countries — that's what the American Meat Institute's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer J. Patrick Boyle wrote in an editorial published in the September issue of Alberta Beef magazine. "The U.S. border should never have been closed for an extended period of time in the first place," Boyle wrote, "because … Canadian beef is as safe from BSE as is American beef, and failing to resume trade immediately is causing those who make a living in the beef industry on both sides of the border to be permanently, and perhaps irrevocably, damaged." The import ban has created a surplus of cattle in Canada, leading to crashing prices, while the lack of Canadian cattle has left American processors and packers with their facilities running at less than capacity. Boyle recommends that trade harmonization agreements be developed that codify universal precautions against BSE so that trade will never be disrupted again. Take care. [/QUOTE]
