    It's just *****ing and moaning combined with an apparent ignorance of how France treated the UK after thier mad cow scare.

            I guess you'll just be whining when the hydro lines stop sending power and the natural gas pipelines are turned off. Maybe for just a day or two to start.

              Nope, the EU banned UK beef, and it was perfectly justified. It is no way comparable to the single incident in Canada.

              France maintained its beef ban unlawfully for a while after, one of the few problems we can't handle through direct effect and precedence of EU law. But it will be interesting, as France is liable for that under EU state liability law. The US will never compensate people for illegal trade moves.

              Another thing you forget is that the EU, end thereby also the french taxpayer, funded a lot of the costs of the BSE desaster.

              And Cockney, if you don't like it, join NAFTA and get lost.

                    The french used a loophole to extend a national ban. Great ****in' story. They're not the only one. Shall we go through the factortame saga, for example? The UK changed the law in the end, so did France.

                                No, but if the US wants to talk the talk of being free and open traders, they should walk the walk. Canada is seeing a lot of evidence that the US has forgotten the walk recently and I am not ashamed to point it out.
