Since you are american, I would believe you.

Since I am Canadian, have seen b, never seen a.

See how homerism works out?

You have seen an American steak house that advertises Canadian AAA ? You will have to forward me that menu.

Just a quick menu search and here is a list of Canadian Steakhouses that not only serve USDA prime or US Certified Angus Beef but also advertise it and list it in their menu as a selling point

-Carmens
-que ued echeual
-Ruth's Chris
-Moishes

-Chops (they serve multiple options, USDA prime from Omaha Nebraska in the US, local Canadian Angus, Canadian AAA and Kobe)

I searched 9 Canadian Steakhouses and found 5 that advertise and serve USDA beef, 2 that do not serve anything besides Canadian AAA or a similar branded Canadian product and 2 that did not specify the source of their beef.

given that USDA inspection cosnider cat food as edible food for humans, I wouldn't put too much stock in your inspection standards...

Apparently Canadians put stock in it.

Nobody "radicalizes" anyone. Everyone is responsible for their own choices--you can't waltz through life pretending your bad choices are somebody else's fault.

Apparently nobody were ever indoctrinated and/or brainwashed in humanity history, true story.

WHen I visit a steak house in the US, I will let you know. When you visit a generic steak house in Canada that advertise american beef, let me know.

Ruth's Chris is an american brand, of course they would sell american product (just to pick one of your example).

I could point out that The Keg is a canadian brand that sells canadian meat in their americna franchises too.

Ignoring the fact that I've never heard of "The Keg", link to where they advertise it as a positive in their American franchises?

That's more or less true given that we modified the USDA grading scale and made it harsher.

If I travel to the US and manage to find the answer to these questions, I will let you know.

That's the fault of those "indoctrinated and/or brainwashed".

Well, you asserted it. Are you now withdrawing the assertion and acknowledging that you lack certainty that they actually do that with their American franchises?

I thought the theme of this thread was "Blame Canada" and not "Blame Victims".

If you take the time to look at their menu you will see that they do indeed sell canadian meat. However, I apologize if I don't have more knowledge on wether The Keg is well spred in the US or not and if they spend 1B$ in their tv marketing campaigns on american channels or not. If you want to know those stuff you are welcomed to make your own research, I am waiting anxiously the results.

If you're "waiting anxiously" then perhaps you should be a little less ready to just throw wild-ass assertions out there.

Otherwise you'd already have what it took to back up the claims that YOU made in the first place.

I just did let you know. The list of Canadian Steakhouses I provided you, all have online menu's and in the steak section of the menu, all list USDA prime cuts.

Why would Ruth's Chris sell an American product in Canada if it was not popular ? On that note, why would Canada be threatening a lawsuit and registering complaints with the WTO over Country of Origen Labeling where USDA inspected beef was not only labeled "North America" but put separate labels on "US Beef", "Canadian Beef", "Mexican Beef" ? The answer is because they would lose the premium that they receive for the product that Canadian beef producers receive by running their beef under the USDA label.

I searched the Keg menu in Colorado, Texas, Arizona and they do not list the source of their beef cuts so I can not answer if the beef they serve in Canada or the US is USDA or Canadian AAA.

I have been to The Keg in the US several times and have never seen Canadian beef advertised at all. I can't tell you if they advertise US beef grades because every steakhouse does that and it would not stand out in my memory, but I definitely would have seen Canadian beef grades.

Hell, I didn't even know it was a Canadian chain because there is zero mention of Canada anywhere in their marketing.
