When cattle mysteriously start dying of anthrax in a small Alberta ranching community, an RCMP officer (Cameron Daddo) tries to keep the peace as ranchers lay the blame on a local agricultural research center. A reporter ('David Keith' ) encourages the angry ranchers - led by the Mountie's mother-in-law (Joanna Cassidy) - to stage a sit-in at the research center (the head of the facility is played by 'Ed Begley, Jr.' ) . When an eccentric old rancher (Jan Rubes) dies after being exposed to a deadly strain of anthrax, the protesters are quarantined. No one notices that the reporter has disappeared - along with several vials of the deadly bacteria. The RCMP officer begins his own investigation, gleaning information from a U.S. government agent (William B. Davis) . He finds himself racing against time to recover the stolen anthrax. e7e Written by Anonymous
