I would like to bring up what is happening here in manitoba. As of today three auction barns called sales off due to lack of buyer interest. prices for fat cattle have fallen back to the 65-70 range and feeders have really taken a hit with some prices falling .35 per pound. This roller coaster is too hard for some to take both mentally and financially.
With the AMI loosing its court case to open the border to all live animals today, this will put more pressure on our market.
This Border issue has went way past fair. It seems to me that 'socalled" free trade with the US only works when the US wants what it needs. They take advantage of our oil supplies, fertilizer supplies, water, electricity, and steel. When reading about how the US wants to place sanctions on Japan to take their beef, when they have yet to prove that the US beef herd is free of BSE. I believe if the US does go ahead with santions that Canada should place a huge tarriff on all of the goods that I mentioned above. It would push the price of your fuel to sky reaching prices, and some of you wouldnt be able to drive your vehicles. You R-calfers keep blaming us Canadians on pushing our fat cattle on your country and lowering your prices. If I recall right we had 4 slaughter plants in Manitoba in the 70's-80's. It was the US domination of the slaughter industry that ruined our killing plants here, forcing us to ship cattle to the US. This was a sword that would someday find its way into the heart of the Canadian Cattleman on May 20,2003. I think R-calf should get out of the hillbilly town and come to Canada to see what we do up here. Oh thats right they won't face Canadian ranchers face to face because they are the biggest MORONS in the world. Big dumbass Leo can spout his short ass off to the media about how unsafe Canadian beef is but he cant come to see for himself. He and the rest of head haunchos of R-calf are a big group of Monkeys who sit in an office dreaming up how they can ruin the beef industry in Canada and the American consumer is way to guillable to believe these @ssholes. I think it is a matter a time before some members of the cattle ranching industry in Canada begin a media campaign in the US to inform the US consumer what R-calf is hiding and deceiving them. Can you imagine how this would go over with the US consumer? I bet if they knew what was going on the price of your product would drop dramatically! If R-calf can do it to Canada then why cant we do it back? Ill be glad when we can get our plants up and running and we can step on your toes when you discover you have a huge BSE breakout!
