I was wondering if anyone has looked into who oversees the CFIA, specifically their role in horse slaughterhouse? The National did a great piece on them recently called 'House of Horrors' where they examined the CFIA's role and had interviews with Dr. Brian Evans (VP), Dr. Temple Grandin and a rep from BCSPCA. I've contacted them myself and received a generic response from them and my local MP. I'm curious how such obvious wrong doing is allowed to continue and why when blatant acts of non compliance (read corruption) occurs the CFIA does nothing about it's employees and the abattoirs it's suppose to be regulating. Seems to me that the CFIA has no one to answer to except themselves and the Justice Department ??? Any thoughts to how this can be changed? hi, apologies for the off-topic comment… I was wondering if anyone has looked into who oversees the CFIA, specifically their role in horse slaughterhouse?

nobody reads TS Eliot anymore I guess except possibly Anglican preachers of a certain age … anyway, in Murder in the Cathedral Eliot wrote, “It is the greatest treason, to do the right deed for the wrong reason”

does anyone imagine that Harper & his minions give a rat’s ptuie for Bashir Makhtal? my mind skips straight to imagining other motivations, avoiding bad press is my guess, or at the extreme – not wanting to see some honest bureaucrat of Zaccardelli’s stripe being forced out

the fact that you chose this for ‘good news’ … well, I am glad to see someone still looking for good news at least :-)

what good can we really say about John Baird? at least he is not one of those milquetoast SNAG’s, nothing sensitive-new-age-guy about our Johnnie!

be well.
