•• Because of Brucellosis
problems across Ontario all calves
over six months of age and under
18 months must be tested, Mr...
McGregor advised, except steers
and vaccinated heifers, before
they can be exhibited at fairs.
Before they may be unloaded .at
the fairgrounds each exhibitor
must produce a government
certificate indicating that the
animal haS- been tested 'for
Brucellosis within 30 days • of
exhibiting and no time less than
six days.
He said some fair boards will .
demand that horses have • a
Coggins Test before appearing at
a fair.
