A long-awaited class-action lawsuit against the Canadian government by beef farmers has been delayed yet again, though not for long.
The $8-billion lawsuit alleges that the federal government failed to prevent cattle from the United Kingdom from entering the country between 1982 and 1990, despite knowing that at least 10 of them came from herds known to have bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), better known as Mad Cow Disease.
