Butcher Price Eastern Ontario

[Fox]

Fox - you've got a few things wrong there. MNRF does the enforcement work for OMFRA.

http://www.omafra.gov.on.ca/english/...nforcement.htm
"[COLOR=#000000][FONT="]In Ontario, the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs ([/FONT]OMAFRA[COLOR=#000000][FONT="]) shares responsibilities for enforcement and compliance of its regulations with the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR). The legislation is administered by [/FONT]OMAFRA[COLOR=#000000] and enforced by MNR through a team of expert compliance officers and investigators. To ensure successful enforcement, sharp distinctions are drawn between inspectors who monitor for compliance, and investigators who gather evidence for prosecution."

Also, you can slaughter just about anything on your property for your own use on that property, without government inspection.
I believe there is a limit that can be removed - I think this is what Tijjsen beat the charges with.

Right here in bold letters, this is all covered under the OMAFRA, if the MNRF is involved it may be because they need a LEO and they are not using the police, or there is some tie to wildlife but this is under the juristiction of the OMAFRA.

Cows are not considered game, they are livestock. You can have one inspected and slaughtered at a specific facility and then shipped to your butcher of choice I do not think you would be allowed to bring an uninspected domestic and self slaughtered carcass into a legit butcher shop.

First part of inspection is the animal has to walk into slaughter house it’s first inspected on the hoof
now I’ve had vet give emergency permission to slaughter then rushed to butcher broken leg

Dat be true..I had a pig break his hind hip about a month before his kill date. I called the butcher, he said to bring it in, as long as he walks the ramp into the butcher shop, he would slaughter it.

Yes, I know how it works, the vet things was new to me but I just read it.

I know someone who has his beef slaughtered at one placed and cold shipped to his personal butcher to be cut, I also know of beef that have been killed and given back to the customer whole as they did not have the time to be able to cut it.

I chose this year to just do it myself, all for my family but well worth it when you consider all the costs.

Have you make sure the inspector is ok with it, the butcher probably would not care, ha ha. I know the inspectors are individuals, just like building inspectors.

If I remember correctly, he only confirmed if it was for my own consumption..
