[QUOTE="Cattle Rack Rancher, post: 37726, member: 245"] Excellent post Bez. Many good points. In the early 80's, we had 7 slaughter plants in Manitoba, enough to do all our own beef and then some.Now, becasue of free trade and other issues, we have none. All these plants were in urban areas, unfortunately, and now with the way things are, I fear that there would be alot of opposition from city people to re-opening them. Ranchers Choice Co-op had wanted to open up one of the old city plants but couldn't get enough financial support from producers or the government on that plan. They now plan to try a rural location which I think they will have more success with but all this finagling has cost valuable time. [/QUOTE]
