NDP MP urges action to end bans on Canadian beef
NDP MP Dick Proctor accuses the government of ignoring expert advice to reopen the U S border to Canadian beef. He calls for banning all animal feed and expanding cattle testing to prove safety, while noting Japan's ongoing ban after Alberta's bovine outbreak. A government spokesman says measures are being worked out with provinces and partners. Dennis Laycraft of the Canadian Cattlemen's Association supports the view that efforts are being made to end bans.
