Bush Says Wants 'Free Trade' for Canada Beef
Date: 03-May-04
Country: USA
In remarks in the White House Rose Garden after morning meetings with Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin, Bush said, "My administration is committed to a policy of free trade when it comes to beef."
The United States banned live cattle from Canada 11 months ago when a single case of mad cow disease was discovered in Alberta, Canada. Since then, the United States has relaxed a ban on all Canadian beef.
