Canadian and American Food Safety Regulation under NAFTA: The Case of BSE
Unformatted Document Text:  Bosso, 8/19/05, p. 27 15 “Wary of Mad Cow, Japan Asks U.S. to Label its Beef,” Wall Street Journal, June 19, 2003, A12. 16 Denise Grady,” U.S. Issues Safety Rules to Protect Food Against Mad Cow Disease,” The New York Times, December 31, 2003: A1. 17 “Company News: McDonald’s to Buy its Beef from Canadian Suppliers,” New York Times, July 26, 2003, C4 18 “Update on BSE,” Committee on Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures, World Trade Organization, Report G/SPS/GEN/415, July 23, 2003. 19 See Marc Kaufman, “USDA Accused of Misleading Public on Mad Cow; Whether Diseased Animal Was a 'Downer' Speaks to Surveillance System, Lawmakers Say,” The Washington Post, February 18, 2004: A02. 20 “Diseased Cow's Origin Is Traced as Nations Ban U.S. Beef,” The Associated Press, December 24, 2003, via nytimes.com. 21 Ibid. Ironically, the feed itself may well have been produced in the U.S., given the rather extensive cross-border trade in feed, but nobody will know for sure. 22 However, critics noted, it was still legal to feed rendered beef protein to pigs, chickens and other animals, which in turn can be rendered and fed to cows or sheep. This loophole, they argue, offers a backdoor route for BSE infection. See Marian Burros and Donald G. McNeil, Jr., “Inspections for Mad Cow Lag Those Done Abroad,” New York Times, December 24, 2003: p. xx. 23 Ibid.
