Advocacy Groups Push for Mandatory Labelling of Gene-Edited Pork in Canada

Abstract:

Farmer and environmental groups are urging Health Canada to require mandatory labels for pork from PRRSV-resistant gene-edited pigs. While regulators say the meat is safe and nutritionally identical, critics argue Canadians deserve transparency. Concerns include consumer trust, export markets, regulatory transparency, and fairness for producers avoiding genetic engineering technology.
