Detection of genome-edited organisms with subtle mutations is possible. The method was able to detect the presence of a new #GMO even at very low levels of 0.9-0.1%. This would be sensitive enough to detect cases of unintended contamination. biosafety-info.net/articles/biosa…

A sweeping deal to deregulate new GMOs has been proposed in the EU, yet civil society still secured some key concessions – seed labelling, public registers and full GMO regulation for higher-risk plants. See next steps & comparison with UK regulations: beyond-gm.org/new-eu-proposa…

Wow! I guess that we will need to stay vigilant, @GovCanHealth and @InspectionCan have not shown much transparency, but it is a VERY GOOD NEWS For all of us who care about their food! A very special thank you to @FoodProfessor and all consumers that made their voice heard. @duBreton organic pork will work hard to deserve your trust and confidence. Never give up, never back down👍

BREAKING: Health Canada has indefinitely paused its proposed policy update on foods from cloned cattle and swine. After significant pushback from consumers and industry, Ottawa is stepping back to “allow more time for discussion.” For now, any cloned-animal food products must still go through the full novel food assessment — and none are approved for sale in Canada. This pause raises big questions about transparency, public trust, and why the file advanced so quickly in the first place.
