This new flexible corporate structure is best for all parties because it envisions multiple companies investing in and utilizing this new beef plant for the benefit of all Manitoba beef producers," said Corry Berndsen, Keystone's vice-president of operations. The St. Boniface plant will also process more than so-called 'natural' beef -- meat from animals raised free of antibiotics and growth hormones, the partners said Thursday. That is the specialty of Natural Prairie Beef, a Manitoba company owned by beef producers.
This is a major step forward for Natural Prairie Beef and for the Manitoba cattle industry," Kelly Penner, the company's president and CEO, said Tuesday. "We've conducted extensive research to create a business plan that we believe addresses the risks associated with entering a competitive industry," Penner said. Natural Prairie said it is now "finalizing" financing arrangements with other partners and lending institutions. "They had no place to take their animals and it nearly ruined our beef industry," [Bill Uruski] said in a statement Tuesday. "We're very close to being able to say: never again.
The St. Boniface plant will also process more than so-called 'natural' beef - meat from animals raised free of antibiotics and growth hormones, the partners said Thursday. "The new corporate structure positions the plant to accept investment and cattle for all Manitoba producers, whether they're raising natural, organic or conventional cattle," said Kate Butler, executive director of the cattle enhancement council, which has invested $2.4 million in the venture.
The American position in the Country of Origin Labelling (COOL) trade dispute is filled with irony. It's even humourous, in a dark way. But COOL is hurting our livestock producers and our economy, and that's not funny. It isn't that our southern neighbours distrust "Canadian" food. Exports to the U.S. of beef and pork meat, rather than live animals, are marginally higher this year compared to last. American consumers seem content to eat the meat. But the processors don't want to package it. COOL aims to give U.S. consumers the "right to know" where their food comes from. The implication is that shoppers can avoid food illnesses by identifying "risky" foreign sources.
The new field representative, who will begin work in late summer and early autumn, will travel the province to various auction marts and events with a laptop to help producers verify the age of their animals with programs like the Verified Beef Program and the Canadian Cattle Identification Agency.

Sprinkle salt and pepper on about 1.5 kg (3 lbs) of oxtail and place a large oven-safe pot on the stove. Heat 15 ml (1 tbsp) of canola oil and brown the oxtail sections on all sides. Remove and set aside. In the same vessel, saute two thinly sliced large onions, two peeled cloves of garlic and a seeded hot pepper. Add a bay leaf, a sprig of rosemary and cover with 500 ml (2 cups) of red wine and 250 ml (1 cup) of beef or veggie stock. Bring back to a simmer, add the oxtail and place lid on pot. Move covered vessel into an oven preheated to 100 C (225 F) and cook four to five hours, or until oxtail is fork-tender. Spoon off fat. Serve over egg noodles or rice.

In May 2003 Canada's Food Inspection Agency announced that a single case of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) had been diagnosed in a native bom Canadian cow. In the aftermath of this announcement, the United States closed its border to Canadian beef and live cattle exports. At the time, the United States accounted for nearly all of Canada's live cattle and the majority of its beef exports, so the loss of this market was critical. By September 2003 the border reopened to beef exports from cattle less than 30 months of age, but it would be over two years before cattle under 30 months would be admitted. This article outlines the consequences of the border closure on Canada's cattle industry and considers the obstacles to lessening its dependence upon the US market.

In The Way We Eat, co-authors [Peter Singer] and [Jim Mason] paint a dire picture of agriculture in America. Factory farms that churn out the poultry, pork and beef we eat every day not only treat animals in a way that must be abhorrent even to those who take a humans-are-top-of-the-food-chain view, they also poison the environment and pump us full of unnecessary antibiotics. The authors' level of commitment can leave the reader feeling overwhelmed, however. The work that goes into investigating and then weighing the pros and cons of food decisions is time-consuming -- What does "free range" really mean? How are those "animal care certified" pigs really being treated? -- and the right choices are frequently expensive. It's probably too much to hope that The Way We Eat will have similar ...
