Mr. Speaker, I rise to present additional petitions from Canadians across Canada, in Guelph and throughout southwestern Ontario, who wish to add their voices to the many thousands of others calling for a moratorium on the release of Roundup Ready alfalfa.
The petitioners are justifiably worried about cross-contamination, co-existence, transportation and production. They call upon the government to impose an immediate moratorium on its release until such time that a proper analysis of its impact on both organic and non-organic farmers is done.
