More Mad Cow

Uh oh, another case of Mad Cow disease in Canada. Makes you wonder when they will find another case here. As long as it doesn't reach the food supply. The scary thing is even though they changed the rules for what kind of feed cattle could eat (they changed it in 97), cows that consumed contaminated feed before that could have had it all this time. At least that risk should continue to go down as time goes by, but if it ever got into the food supply, the results would be terrible for the meat industry in this country. Lets hope it never happens.
