Different scenarios are proposed by AAFC to manage imports contaminated by low level presence (LLP) of GMOs not authorized in Canada. The OFC participated to the AAFC consultation on that issue to file its objection to any LLP policy unless an overall policy is implemented to protect organic production against GMO contamination and unless costs incurred by contamination prevention, detection and loss of organic integrity are shared with the producers of GM crops.

A paper describing the base for OFC position is attached.
