Here are some articles you might find interesting, then:


Mad cow probe focuses on tracing herd
Investigators track cattle that entered U.S. with infected animal:

I found this quote interesting, "It was born at a dairy farm in the Canadian province of Alberta and was brought to the U.S. in a herd of 81 cattle in 2001. The only other case of the disease in North American-born cattle was discovered in May in a Black Angus cow from an Alberta herd.

Officials have said they believe both cows probably were infected as calves because they were born before August 1997, when the United States and Canada banned cattle feed that contained parts of cattle, sheep or other cud-chewing animals."


Here is another article about a previous incident from last year:

Canada's mad cow case may not be isolated incident

By the way, you might notice that OJ is NOT serving Canadian beef in my Avatar, although it is suspect as to what kind of meat it might be.

Wow. Glad to see that the new year has made the two of you so much happier. And polite, too. Hope that things continue to go well for the two of you in your strange little worlds. Cheers!

That's not proof derrek.




Times have changed, our kids are getting worse
They won't obey their parents, they just want to fart and curse
Should we blame the government?
or blame society?
or should we blame the images on tv?

No, blame Canada, blame Canada
with all their beedy little eyes
have packed their heads so full of lies
Blame Canada, Blame canada
We need to form a full assault its Canada's fault!

Don't blame me for my son Stan
He saw the darn cartoon and now he's off to join the clan
And my boy Eric once had my picture on his shelf
now when I see him he tells me to *beep* myself

Well? Blame Canada, blame Canada
It seems that everythings gone wrong since Canada came along
Blame Canada, Blame Canada

They're not even a real country anyway

My son could have been a doctor or a lawyer rich and true
instead he burned up like a piggy on a barbeque
Should we blame the matches?
Should we blame the fire?
Or the doctors who allowed him to expire?

Heck no! Blame Canada, Blame Canada with all their hockey hollaballoo
And that byatch Ann Murray too!
Blame Canada, Shame on Canada,
for the smut we must stuff
the trash we must stash
the laughter and fun
must all be undone
We must blame them
the cause of fuss
BEFORE SOMEBODY THINKS OF BLAMING US

The proof is in the dates. Try studying up on the incubation period of the disease, etc. Also, keep in mind where the disease comes from -- food made from dead animals. They don't feed food like that to these animals in the USA. They don't in Canada either -- supposedly. But how can we be sure? Canadians are apparently not required to keep detailed records of animals, and one could assume that their cattle are not monitored as closely either.

Again, read closely about facts behind the dates.

And if anything seems lacking, perhaps the conclusion could be seen more easily if Canadians had a better system for keeping track of their livestock (recordkeeping, etc.).

Do you think that some US organization just got together and dreamed up (and created a paper trail overnight) that the cow came from Canada? We have records and proof of where this cow came from. The only thing Canada has is a big finger pointed at them because they already had the disease there -- in the same area that this cow came from -- just last year.

The cow came from Canada.

You say that Canadian farmers 'supposedly' don't feed their cows with infected feed but you are SURE Americans don't.

What a joke.

I'm not saying it was or was not infected in Canada. There is no proof.

American officaias say it 'probably' was.

Do you know what 'probably' sounds like coming from an American official's mouth?

American officials were 'sure' their were WMD's in Iraq.

Now I'm supposed to belive probably?!?!?!

After 9/11 American officials were saying the terrorists probably came in through Canada. OOPS!!! WRONG AGAIN!

Why can't you admit that it could have been infected in the US?

Is it because you are arrogant?

Time for a split.

[matko]

Again, I don't know if the cow was infected in Canada or not. Nobody knows at this point.

My question is why are arrogant Americans like Derrek saying it is without proof?

Logic:

The cow came from Canada.

Canada had Mad cow disease before.

Therefore, the cow was infected in Canada.

Answer: WRONG!

Logic:

When it rains the ground is wet.

I woke up this morning and the ground was wet.

Therefore, it must have rained last night.

Answer: WRONG!

[Derrek]

Wow... you guys are being so typically Canadian *laugh*.

[matko]

No Derrek,

you're the stereotype personified.
