Trying to have one national beef standard certainly has been discussed for many years. It's a little strange, and it's difficult to explain to people that it's okay to move a product made in Ottawa to Kenora, Ontario, but you can't move it into Manitoba if it has been inspected only at the provincial level. It really is a difficult question to explain.
As for the recent changes made to the meat inspection regulations, and this pilot project that was put in place, I think it's a good first step to try to get everybody on a similar standard. If you look at the rules themselves, the larger a facility is, the more stringent the rules are surrounding what tests have to be done, for instance. If it is a smaller facility, it is a lower level of inspection, and it's a lower level of risk that's applied to certain categories of food. I hope that some day we can get to the point where we have the ability to have one system so meat can move between provinces in Canada.
