[QUOTE="Cattle Rack Rancher, post: 40897, member: 245"] Even as I respect you as a fellow Canadian or I assume you are. I have to disagree. In total Canada's cow herd is about 5% the size of the US herd. We used to export about 40% of that to the US. or 2% of their total beef supply. If we doubled that production, we would still only be supplying about 2 weeks supply to the US. US imports are actually up since the border closed but they are bringing in beef from South America and Australia instead of Canada. The good news is that even though it is going to be a tough year up here, I was reading today that if all the slaughter capacity comes online that is predicted in the next while we should be able to clear out our backlogged beef by fall of 2005.
