Canada confirms mad cow case

Hmmm, seesm like we carried a tale like this about a year ago... dairy cattle, Canada - only the date and location of the find seems to have changed.

But we're not going to get scared this time, oh no, not us. We'll not let this interefere with resumption of imports, as long as they're young cattle... after all, if it doesn't show any symptoms, it can't be sick! Right?

Canada confirms that a cow from the province of Alberta has tested positive for mad cow disease.

Notes: If you put a <mailto:> link in the URL field your address will not be mangled: this could be a bad idea as your email address could be easily harvested by bots designed for SPAM. The comments field should now format correctly for line feeds and carriage returns: when you hit the 'Enter' or 'Return' keys in your comment it should break to a new line. The text should wrap cleanly. Please let me know if it doesn't. No HTML tags will pass through - entering links seems to be the main cause of comment SPAM. Also, please be sure that Javascript is enabled in your browser before attempting to post a writeback. Sorry for any inconvenience, but this really helps cut down on the amount of comment SPAM I have to deal with.
