National Food Fight Launched to Stop Genetically Engineered Crops
VANCOUVER, BC, June 2, 2005 (Council of Canadians) - Canadians are joining regions, communities and countries around the world in declaring their communities GE-Free Zones. Launched today, the GE-Free Canada campaign is a nation-wide, grass-roots effort by farmers, environmentalists, and ordinary Canadians concerned with issues of food safety and food sovereignty. Community by community, citizens are banding together to create a web of zones across Canada that are free of genetically engineered (GE) plants, animals, crops and trees. The campaign's goal is to have 50 communities in Canada declare themselves GE-Free in the next two years. http://www.canadians.org/display_document.htm?COC_token=COC_token&id=1125&isdoc=1&catid=67.
