To all concerned ranchers
With the fall ABP producer meetings upon us, we must seize this opportunity to;
1) Elect people that have the courage and fortitude to push BSE into the history books and eliminate the bogus phrase; “BSE infection” from our vocabulary. The incessant calls to “stick together” like so many lemmings, has gotten us nowhere. We must think as individuals, based on the scientific facts that each of us has a different grasp of. Only then can we come to an understanding, based on the truth, the true historical facts, the true scientific data.
2) We must all demand that the ABP directorship fulfill its’ obligation to accomplish the resolutions desired and carried by producers, and further reaffirmed by the delegates in 2003. Specifically, the motion moved by Bill Bockock; TO RESEARCH AND COLLECT SCIENTIFIC DATA ON CAUSES OF BSE ALTERNATE TO THE INFECTIOUS THEORY.
THIS HAS NOT BEEN ACOMPLISHED.
The results of the ABP technical committees’ efforts were the subject of my wifes Email to Marvin Conrad, the committee chair, dated Oct. 26/04. (Should you not have, or wish another copy, please contact us) It is not sufficient to say only that the reliance on the flawed AARI report does not fulfill the requirement of Bococks’ motion to “research and collect”, wherein a catalogued document should have been prepared by this committee. Upon examination of the AARI report, one quickly realizes that its’ purpose was completely contrary to the Bocock resolution!
Where the resolutions purpose is to collate data that challenges the infectious theory, the AARI reports’ purpose was to determine activities to justify and utilize the expenditures on bio-security facilities recently constructed in Edmonton and Winnipeg, and assumes that the following statements are factual, and does so without any validation or scientific reference! ;
1) that BSE is infectious,
2) that the UK crisis was caused by “Prions” in the MBM fed to cattle,
3) that “…..small doses of infective material in feed can lead to BSE infection.”,
4) that a risk exists in consuming SRMs,
5) that epidemiology exists to show control measures in the UK were effective,
6) that theories based “OPs” and metals are “far fetched” and deserve not to be funded,
7) that a risk exists in the use and /or disposal of offal.
The promulgation of this type of dogma is the exact reason that the Bocock resolution came into existence in the first place!
It is readily apparent that the lay technical committee members have been misguided by authorities exercising an “expert/student relationship” within this process, in an effort to maintain the status quo.
Randy Kaiser, an ABP nominee in zone 3, said it best in his recent public address to ranchers;
“What is it that ABP or Beef producers anywhere can gain from discounting the work of a growing number of scientists concerning environmental links to BSE while following experimentally unproven theories of BSE transmission through contaminated feed?
The environmental theory gives us hope to prove BSE to be seen as a non-transmissible chemical imbalance affecting individual animals.
The one that this industry has chosen to follow leaves us with more rules and trade regulations every day, which have succeeded in creating dysfunctional markets for beef around the world.
How can we simply ignore an alternative, which is all about hope, and embrace one that is about nothing but destruction.” –Sundre, Oct. 25/04
The following resolution has already been passed in Sundre;
“Be it resolved ABP conduct a literature review on research that may link BSE to environmental factors and report the findings to producers.” Passed October 25th, 2004
In private correspondence, this is Randys’ commitment and request of (us);
“Now--------------- We need to have something similar (better resolutions) done at every other meeting we can. Because after I work my ass off to sit on that Technical committee, and I will be there, I want a bunch of support from producers in the form of passed resolutions.
This is our call to arms.
We must demand the scientific truth be told, before we succumb to the ever increasing regulatory onslaught thrust upon us.
Please formulate a motion to your choosing. If you wish, use the 7 points noted above as your whereases by inserting “is not” or “does not” appropriately into the text, use the motion already passed, or, last years Bocock motion.
Please pass this on to as many producers as possible! ASAP!
Good luck, Les Czar
