Indeed, the United States has been more proactive than Canada when it comes to certain active ingredients. Canada has always lagged behind the United States. Unfortunately, with Trump's changes and the massive deregulation he is implementing, there is reason to fear that Canada will fall even further behind. The problem is that, in Canada, we don't have a legal system that protects people as much as it does in the United States. In the United States, Bayer has paid over $7 billion in settlement agreements to victims with blood cancers linked to the use of Roundup.
Here, the amount is zero, for now. How much money has been paid? Not a single penny. How much money is ultimately lost to the Canadian health care system? Companies are willing to pay. Bayer has budgeted for that, and it's part of its financial report.
