Canada has confirmed a new case of mad cow disease, in a six-year-old dairy cow from Alberta.

It is the second case in two months and the 12th since the disease was first discovered in Canada in 2003...

The US Department of Agriculture has issued a statement saying the Canadian discovery will not affect trade between the two countries.
