May 3, 2023 -Today, the Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food has approved changes to Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) regulatory guidance that, along with similar changes permitted by the Minister of Health in May of 2022, allow product developers to assess the safety of their own genetically modified (GM or genetically engineered) seeds and foods without government oversight.

“This is a shocking abdication of responsibility by our regulators. The government has fully turned GM food safety over to companies using confidential, privately-owned science,” said Lucy Sharratt, Coordinator of the Canadian Biotechnology Action Network (CBAN), “Canadians should be aware that the government will no longer be assessing the safety of many new genetically modified foods and seeds. This decision asks Canadian farmers and consumers to trust unseen corporate science. We need independent science, not corporate self-regulation.”

  1. This is in preparation for allowance of MRNA technology to be used in all livestock without need to advise the public and for the demise of any small organic or non organic farms. There is a case in Ohio about labelling produce as MRNA injected but we all know how well the GMO labelling went. They are poisoning us at will now.
    And this is okay per the minister of Health who we know to be under Big Pharma’s aegis
