SH:"Between the feed ban compliance, increased BSE surveilance testing, removal of positive animals from the food chain and SRM removal, according to the BSE sciece accepted the world over, there is NO RISK!"

___________________________________________________
Response:
1-The GAO and Inspector General has chastised the FDA for "feed ban compliance"!
2-Increased surveillance testing is being lowered.
3-The Wash cow went into the food chain.
4-Which SRM removal? The one for OTM's, or the one for UTM's?
5-World Over? UK's mandatory testing is for every animal over 24 months and OTM's cannot go into the food chain.

The issue here is the safety of Canadian Beef and cattle.


1-The GAO and Inspector General has chastised the FDA for "feed ban compliance"!

Upon inspection of the Canadian feed ban compliance, USDA said Canada had a robust feed ban compliance and said they were doing a good job.


2-Increased surveillance testing is being lowered.

In the U.S. due to the volume of OTM cattle testing negative.

Meanwhile Canada has willingly increased their testing of the highest risk categories.


3-The Wash cow went into the food chain.

Remind me who prohibited "M"ID from "M"COOL?

In contrast, Canada has a traceback system.


4-Which SRM removal? The one for OTM's, or the one for UTM's?

The spinal column and brainstem is where the largest threat lies and those are being removed. You're splitting hairs.


5-World Over? UK's mandatory testing is for every animal over 24 months and OTM's cannot go into the food chain.

You're not going to R-CULT this by comparing the UK and Canada are you? Don't be a fool!

You have gotten completely off subject. The argument was the so-called NCBA "expert" and his "NO RISK" statement. I did not mention Canada in my reply, just your rants in context of "NO RISK". Canda's compliance is not in question with me.

By the way:
4-Which SRM removal? The one for OTM's, or the one for UTM's?

"The spinal column and brainstem is where the largest threat lies and those are being removed. You're splitting hairs."

Can you show me a US LAW/RULE that says spinal column and brainstem must be removed UTM?
