Now Tougher For Americans To Find Out Where Their Beef Or Pork Was Born

It's now tougher for Americans to find out where their beef or pork was born, raised and slaughtered.
 
After more than a decade of official complaints of protectionism from Canada and Mexico, the U-S Congress repealed a contentious labelling law last month that required retailers to include the animal's country of origin on packages of red meat.
 
Before repeal, the World Trade Organization authorized Canada and Mexico to launch more than a billion dollars in economic retaliation against the U-S.
