This all came about through the discovery of a single, isolated case of mad cow disease in one Alberta cow on May 20th. The farmer - I think he was a Louisiana fish farmer who knew nothing about cattle ranching. I guess any self-respecting rancher would have shot, shovelled and shut up, but he didn't do that. Instead he took it to an abattoir and it was discovered after testing in both Winnipeg and the U. K. that this older cow had mad cow disease. (Ralph Klein)
