Thread: Chronic Wasting Disease

With the recent comments on the MPI cost cutting (6.5% of budget) there's apparently a very real prospect that some border agricultural protection functions might be reduced in scope or put off for a couple of years. Concerning if this happens, and raises the risk of (more) animal and plant diseases coming in but then what else do you do when the coffers are empty and the $$ aren't there to fund all the required functions?
