meeting. The leading problem in our
Canadian society is the BSE problem with
the discovery of the first case on May 20.
2003. Auctions, which were halted, have
still not resumed their normal operations.
Retail of beef has been down even
with the strong support shown by the
general population. For farmers anti depressants
are up. It is recognized there
must be an increase in meat packing facilities.
Scientists are working on a break
though in BSE testing that can be accurate
and timely. As for disposal of carcasses,
the " digester" process operates
more cheaply and breaks down the prions
making them harmless. Elk and
sheep farmers have also been affected by
BSE problem and chronic wasting disease.
19 million chickens had to be
slaughtered affecting 25 farms because of
the Avian Flu.
Farmers are also concerned about the
environment and the expansion of industry
such as coal bed methane on their
agricultural lands. One final item of good
news expressed by Ms. Nicholson was
that honeybees can be trained to find
land mines. Sugar is mixed with explosives
and the bees zoom in on mine locations
recognizing this odor.
Plans were made for a busy fall of activities.
Kathleen Lawrence will be the official
delegate to the Red Deer Constituency
Conference Saturday, October
16. 2004 at the Red Deer Museum. The
theme will be International Affairs and
