U.S. judge rejects permanent injunction to block Canadian beef

[tuvor]

A Montana court has rejected a U.S. beef lobby group's request for a permanent injunction to block the importation of Canadian cattle, the Canadian Cattlemen's Association says.

R-CALF had asked U.S. District Judge Richard Cebull to scrap a ruling by U.S. Department of Agriculture that reopened the border to live cattle under 30 months old and boxed cuts of Canadian beef.

The case had been pending before Cebull since last July.

R-CALF had won a temporary injunction from Cebull in March 2005 after the lobby group argued Canada doesn't adequately test for mad cow disease.

1. Hell, - I say go ahead and block us - we'll end up selling it elsewhere

Block our oil, gas and lumber too while you are at it

We'd be better off in the long run IMO

Integrating our resources with the USA is NOT in our best interests at this point in time

That's My Canuk Opinion anyhoo . . .

2. It's about fuckin' time.

This should have been settled a long time ago.
