Genetically edited discourses about food

| 1 min read

Earlier this year, Health Canada revised its rules to allow more genetically edited foods into the market without special safety checks. Now, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency may be on a similar path when it comes to genetically modified seeds. Dr. Cami Ryan with Bayer AG discusses the differing viewpoints between the public and scientific communities when it comes to the safety – and acceptance – of GM foods; plus, Marla Carlson with SaskOrganics shares why organic farmers are concerned that an upcoming decision by the CFIA may not include genetically modified seeds into a mandatory registry. Hosted by Geralyn Wichers.
