Hi Bill and all

The Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food has recently moved the  
Provincial Apiarist and his staff into the department responsible for  
foods of plant origin.  Would this not imply, at least from the  
bureaucratic point of view, that hive products are plant parts and  
therefore bees cannot be livestock at all.
