ot: The whole issue needs much more study and research before we make any major jumps in trade issues or implications of what is safe and what is not.....

so what you're saying is japan is doing the right thing in keeping their border closed, too. better call off thune and the boys then and tell your secretary of state that the japanese are doing the right thing.
 
:) How do you think you sound when you say something like this Oldtimer. The border has nothing to do with anything here besides economics.

I know you're old Oltimer, but this is a very simple concept to grasp.

How is keeping the border closed going to protect the long term economic interests of U.S. cattle packers and investors?

That didn't even make sense!

no it just makes the statement into nonsence. The long term economic beneifit would only happen if the border was OPEN not closed.
 
For what it's worth, I would be quite happy to see the border stay just like it is. I kinda see exporting live cattle as much the same as exporting raw logs and unrefined petroleum products. The sort of thing you probably wouldn't see in reverse. I really look forward to the day that the Canadian beef industry can stand on it's own two feet and find it's own markets.
