I come from eastern Ontario, right beside Ottawa, and there was a time when soy was not grown there, just because it didn't have the traits for the climate found in my region; now it's an extremely important product that's grown by farmers across my riding, just because the plant has now been modified to be better suited to the environment in eastern Ontario.
It's good to know that the product is being integrated now into processed foods quite safely, and the consumer is quite happy consuming it.
