RE: USDA Bans imports from Canada
Things don' t sound like they are getting any better after the Japan Ag. Minster met with our Canadain Ag Minster on the weekend here in Canada. The word was no we will not lift the ban on your beef, even though scientific evidence proves our meat is safe. Japan has also said they will not buy any american beef if they lift the ban, meaning as long as Japan holds the cards than it don' t sound like the US will be able to do much. In the same report they even stipulated many US ag power position people felt the ban should be lifted and Japan was wrong. I appears until the Japs say yes, US will say no to Canadian meat.
