Soon to be followed by Pissed off Catholic Cardinal if you don't watch your mouth OTB.
Sorry! I was a bit on edge there OTB, please forgive me. But I know exactly how you feel. We had one of the freaking coldest winters on record only to emerge into a slight epedimic of SARS. Did it finish there, NO! Now we have MAD COW and....wait for it.....West Nile to contend with.
Thats only half the problem....take a look at where Canadian beef prices dropped to today.
Our exports of beef are already banned in half a dozen contries
It is really bad for the farmers, one fellow interviewed on TV said the costs he gets for a whole cow have halved. For consumers it looks like steaks will be getting cheaper. Personally, I'll take advantage by having lots of bbq steaks this summer!
