I wasn't being that defensive in my first post; but yeah, it's true.
The whole SARS thing was complete bull though...during that time I was still going to school (in downtown toronto) and saw like 2-3 people wearing masks during the whole time. SARS was in 2 hospitals, not in the city. |

Diss your country? The purpose of this thread is quite the opposite. I actually feel bad that Canada gets so much put on them. Was my original post really that misleading? |

| What the media didn't tell you, was that those Ohio power station operators were drunk off Molson and maple syrup pancakes. Thus, it really was Canada's fault. :P |

| If they got drunk off Molson...then it's their own fault |

I agree 100%.
If it was Labatt's I might be able to forgive it - but Molson?
Gah.

Tests Confirm Mad Cow Came From Canada

WASHINGTON (AP) - Genetic testing confirms that the cow diagnosed with the first U.S. case of mad cow disease was born in Canada, agriculture officials said Tuesday.
The test results will allow investigators to intensify their search for the source of infection, most likely from contaminated feed, in Alberta, where the Holstein was born in 1997.
Agriculture Secretary Ann Veneman announced the mad cow diagnosis on Dec. 23, the first time the disease has been found in the United States since its discovery in Great Britain in the mid-1980s.
The DNA tests on the cow, on one of its offspring and on the semen from the cow's sire, as well as records that show the cow came from a dairy farm in Alberta, make "us confident in the accuracy of this traceback," said Dr. Ron DeHaven, the Agriculture Department's chief veterinarian.
Brian Evans, a Canadian agriculture official, said independent testing from a Canadian lab agreed.
Canadian officials had announced last May that a cow in Alberta had been diagnosed with the disease.
While no links have been found between the two cases, investigators now will focus on looking for common sources of feed, Evans said.
He added, "We have not got sufficient evidence to make any feed link between the two farms." |

| Mad cow disease is blown way out of proportion. I feel so sorry for the people of Alberta... their industry has taken such a huge hit over ONE cow. And the cow was inspected, and deemed substandard, so it was removed from the herd, and not made into food for humans. It was later when the carcass was tested by the UK when it was deemed the cow suffered from BSE. |
