GMOs, pesticides, health, etc.

#1 - Canada is one of the countries promoting GMOs the most. Because we grow a lot of canola. Canola is a made-up word which stands for “Canadian oil low acid”, and is a genetically modified product. It is a Canadian invention that is backed by the government. It’s a cheap product to manufacture, and many processed or packaged foods contain canola oil. By 2009, 90% of the Canadian crop was genetically engineered.

#2 - GMOs are promoted because it makes companies like Monsanto incredibly rich. More GMOs = more Roundup sold.


#3 - More Roundup in our food = more problems later.











Do you get it now?

No one's going to die from eating an arctic GMO apple. At least not immediately.

But when we load up with glyphosate - long term problems will happen. We save a few bucks now,
but increase cancer and other diseases later.

It is rapeseed. It is naturally bred. The name was "made up" because the word rape has negative connotations.

Can you get ANYTHING right????

Canada's big on GMOs. No one wanted that stupid apple. But our government shoved
it down our throats anyway. Just like Monsanto is shoving GMOs and Roundup down our throats.
And everyone wants the stuff to be labelled, but government won't allow it.

Canola is a made-up word which stands for “Canadian oil low acid”, and is a genetically modified product.

The name "canola" was chosen by the board of the Rapeseed Association of Canada in the 1970s. The "Can" part stands for Canada and "ola" refers to oil.

No it isn't.

Now do you get it?

[oneh2obabe]

Canola was bred naturally from rapeseed at the University of Manitoba, Canada, by Keith Downey and Baldur R. Stefansson in the early 1970s, and had a different nutritional profile, in addition to much less erucic acid. In the international community, canola is generally referred to as rapeseed 00 or double zero rapeseed to denote both low glucosinolates and low erucic acid.

like with the arctic apple that won't kill anyone - instantly - if they eat one,
no one cares how canola was bred. 90% of canola in Canada is GMO.

what we care about is Roundup - and other pesticides Monsanto is allowed to put in our food
with the blessing of a government that doesn't give a hoot about our health.


Now do you get it?

Don't worry - we get it. You're on a crusade and the hell with what anybody else has to say.

[Randall T]

We're all going to die of something. Maybe spend less time trying to figure out what might kill you and more time living.

Don't worry - we get it. You're on a crusade and the hell with what anybody else has to say.

And, apparently, reality isn't an issue for him either.

[Randall T]

He could get a pill for that, but it's produced by Big Pharma.

like with the arctic apple that won't kill anyone - <blah blah blah>

what we care about is Roundup - <blah blah blah>


Now do you get it?

You are continually wrong or continually making things up.....now do you get it? Discuss.

Why does our government not allow GMO food to be labelled?



because it is crooked.
