Anyone catch Bush's comments on reopening markets for Canadian cattle? |
|
The sound bite I heard had Bush being conciliatory toward Canadian farmers whose markets have been hurt by the halt of imported cattle from Canada due to the recent "mad cow disease" finding. I heard Bush saying he's working to clear the way for "young cows" from Canada to once again be shipped to the U.S.
Not to split hairs, but the word is "cattle." What's this "young cows" crap? Cows indicates that only females of the bovine species are being exported from Canada to the U.S.
I found his choice of words strange, coming from a Texas "rancher" who should know better.
