Canadian GM Flax Contamination Crisis Continues

Farmers in Canada are in the midst of a serious economic crisis created by GM flax contamination. In late 2009 the GM contamination closed the European market. Flax farmers do not yet know where they will sell their flax. The GM flax seed has been illegal to sell in Canada since 2001 and is not approved for human consumption outside of Canada and the US. The industry is now exploiting the crisis to put the squeeze on farm-saved seed. Stay up-to-date on the crisis that warns of the consequences if GM alfalfa or GM wheat are introduced.
