Or maybe you think that the creekstone is different and they want to test for the sole purpose of helping cattlemen. Don't play innocent the only reason they want to test is to get into markets others are shut out of, it is all about making the biggest profit as possible. Thus finding a bunch of positives won't help that. So move on and push for more testing of the target group high risk cattle.
They already do a number of tests on their product that they are required to do. What the heck is the problem with them doing another one voluntarily?
Of course Creekstone wants to get in a market others are shut out of. That's called business. Thats how business works, you find an angle that you have over your competition and then you exploit it while maximizing profits. In a free enterprise system that we are supposed to have and that NCBA purports to support, the government is supposed to allow it and stay the hell out of the way.
Now back to the original topic; The question is what would of kept that cow from not being shipped down here or even put in your food chain last month, 6 months ago, 12 months, etc..... ?
In my opinion there is nothing that would have stopped this cow from being exported. The fact is the CFIA found it. The Stevie Wonder group would have fed her to their own people, the same as they are doing now.
What is the better scenario?
I am also not saying that the CFIA is finding them all, too bad voluntary testing wasn't allowed, we would ALL be suprised at the results
YEP- I'm afraid you may be right-- but that doesn't fit into the lie, cheat, decieve, cut and run- don't accept responsibility- way big business and our big business bought out government operates anymore...
