Drop out of the WTO now!!!

We have a right to know where food was produced.

How about all of the label requirements for food sold in EU?

Those requirements fill volumes.

What is the difference in this case?

The obvious conclusion is that the US is a subservient nation to the WTO. If this is tolerable to you...sit down.

” ... requirements put Canadian and MEXICAN livestock at an unfair disadvantage.”


bs to that. I want to know if my meat comes from an ecoli hotbed like Mexico or some other third world nation.

The US Department of Agriculture better step up. Would it be okay for our pork to come from Liberia?

Great - guess it’s now OK to get unlabeled meat from China. Could be dog treats for all they care - and Chinese dog treats kill.

Funny I was just in Canada and saw signs stating 100% Canadian beef..

So questions I would assume all three country want to support buy from home products

So does this ruling apply to all countries involved?

Or is it just the US that can not label non domestic beef vs domestic as such?

The truth is unfair.

Personally I don’t think it would hurt Canadian producers at all. I have no problem buying meat from Canada. Mexico is a different matter.

No problem with beef from Canada, if Canada will finish getting the U.K. boss off its back (mad cows from the U.K.—expensive and crazy way to pretend that one is a Limey).
