Codex Alimentarious and Nuticide

I just watch on youtube a lecture from a Dr Laidlore it helps fill in all the gaps in relation to current Canadian changes in requirements to standards in food production.  I suggest you watch it, because you an't seen nothing yet, to come, in regards to your farm practices and production. The best cons are carried out with your compliance.

In the video it shows a food CoOp been raided by the police with gun drawn. But this can't happen in Canada, remember the Armish farmer selling milk.

While you were busy shopping for your Chistmas gifts, your neighbour south of the border signied off on the food safety act on the 22 December 2010. You now work for the UN. Any produce to be exported to the USA is now subjected to their food safety laws. What does it mean for Canada well, extra costs for inspections, farm inspections, and fees for a start.  As they say the USA gets a snease the rest of us gets the cold.

I think it is something we all should spending more time evaluating.

 

Bill S.510.Section 305 is entitled "BUILDING CAPACITY OF FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS WITH RESPECT TO FOOD SAFETY" and it gives the FDA authority to set up offices in foreign countries and then dictate the food safety plans of foreign governments.

SEC. 308. FOREIGN OFFICES OF THE FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION.
(a) IN GENERAL. - The Secretary shall establish offices of the FDA in foreign countries selected by the Secretary.

It then goes on to say:

(a) The Secretary shall, not later than 2 years of the date of enactment of this Act, develop a comprehensive plan to expand the technical, scientific, and regulatory food safety  capacity of foreign governments, and their respective food industries, from which foods are exported to the United States.
Sec. 305 includes;
(c) Plan - The plan developed under subsection (a) shall include, as appropriate, the following:

  •  Provisions for secure electronic data sharing.  
  • Training of foreign governments and food producers on United States requirements for safe food.

Well its too late now, its US law. If any country refuses to go by the rules they are fined or their product is refused to be allow in the country. You go to the border with your produces in a truck you get inspected you pay for the inspection, the produce is not allowed in because it is'nt on the list of approve foods. Then you are fined for trying to import prohibed substances. This is not lets talk about it, this end of days stuff, 1984. Free trade agreement, my foot. Japan when to war over this sort of thing. This is not only Canada's problem it affects Australia, NZ, South America, Mexico everyone. This is the nail in the coffin for all small to medium farms. The general public at large. Has Canada seen trees with their fuit rotting on them because they are not the right varitey or gene, or a truck loads of milk tipped in fields because the cows weren't injected by the right antibiotic, or meat works closed as now because the animal is not carrying a certain gene. This NWO they control the vertical and the horzontal, you control nothing. It as been said so many times a country that can't feed itself is doomed.

Shic Global Disease Monitoring Report Renewed By Board

Since December 2017, more than 80 Global Swine Disease Monitoring Reports have been developed by a team at the University of Minnesota, now led by Dr. Maria Sol Perez Aguirreburualde. Funded by the Swine Health Information Center as part of its mission to identify emerging disease threats, the monthly reports are published in the SHIC newsletter and serve as a frequently accessed resource for the swine industry on the SHIC website. Reports are built with near real-time global surveillance of swine diseases for their content and rely on a network of global collaborators to expand and verify regional information. With renewal, the GSDMR will continue and expand in 2024 with a new online dashboard to display the global distribution of priority swine diseases in near real-time. The GSDMR uses a continually updated procedure of screening to identify and score swine disease related events that may represent a risk for the US swine industry and reports those results on a monthly basis. Both

4 Tips to Improve Sow Longevity Through Employee Training

Sow mortality continues to be a growing problem for U.S. swine producers. With already thin margins on sow farms, the ability to raise a gilt into a healthy third-parity sow is necessary to recoup the costs of her development. “Over the last handful of years, sow mortality has been excessive, but in 2023, it was particularly bad,” says Adam Gutierrez, senior account manager with Pharmgate Animal Health.  The latest MetaFarms reports show sow death loss in 2023 was at an all-time high at 15.3%. That’s up 1% from a year ago – a trend that continues to move in the wrong direction.  The trickiest part of sow mortality is that many factors contribute to it. Thankfully, through employee training, it’s easier to identify early illness and lameness. “Animal husbandry needs to be the No. 1 focus,” Brad Edkberg, business analyst at MetaFarms said in Sow Death Loss Reaches All-Time High in 2023: What Can Producers Do Now? “I think that's probably one of the lowest hanging fruits to improve so
