OTTAWA – The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) announced on Monday that another cow in British Columbia had been identified as having bovine spongiform encephalopathy, also known as mad cow disease. The agency said that the discovery should have no impact on the country’s beef industry.
''This should have no impact as far as trade, or significant impact directly within Canada,'' said George Luterbach, a veterinarian with the CFIA.
