In addition to fucking up Canada via just regular capitalism, corporations find new ways to ruin the land; and peoples' lives in the process.

Case in point -> https://cog.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/COG_Press-Release_Canada-Announces-Voluntary-Transparency-Initiative-for-Gene-Edited-Seed-Products_May-4-2023.pdf

During the technical committee process, representatives from Canadian Organic Growers participated
alongside our organic sector partners to represent the interests of organic farmers across the country. We
asked for mandatory notification and transparency of any and all gene edited seed products so that
organic farmers can be assured that the seed they use is free from contamination and safe to use in
organic production. This process did not yield results based on the solutions set forth by Canadian Organic
Growers and the organic sector. In addition to following an aggressive timeline, the technical committee
limited its scope to focus on using a voluntary database managed by the seed industry despite consistent
pushback from organic sector participants who highlighted this approach as highly problematic. Without
this necessary government ownership and oversight, the seed industry is now positioned to control
Canadian access to information on GE seed and immediate measures need to be taken to improve basic
transparency tools.
We have been very clear from the beginning that this voluntary initiative would not provide the organic
sector with the transparency that it needs. The concerns of organic farmers were not heard or addressed
in this process and as a result we do not support the conclusions as they are detailed in this report.
