Five thousand tonnes of meat imported into Europe from Canada each year could
be tainted with banned drugs and chemicals, according to a European Commission
report leaked this week. An audit by Commission inspectors found 鈥渧ery serious
deficiencies鈥� in inspection procedures designed to prevent veterinary drugs and
artificial growth hormones prohibited in Europe from being used in meat bound
for the EU. The inspectors found incomplete paperwork, poorly performing
laboratories, and 鈥渉ormone-free鈥� cattle farms where empty growth hormone boxes
littered the ground.
