Codex Alimentarious and Nuticide

I just watch on youtube a lecture from a Dr Laidlore it helps fill in all the gaps in relation to current Canadian changes in requirements to standards in food production.  I suggest you watch it, because you an't seen nothing yet, to come, in regards to your farm practices and production. The best cons are carried out with your compliance.

In the video it shows a food CoOp been raided by the police with gun drawn. But this can't happen in Canada, remember the Armish farmer selling milk.

While you were busy shopping for your Chistmas gifts, your neighbour south of the border signied off on the food safety act on the 22 December 2010. You now work for the UN. Any produce to be exported to the USA is now subjected to their food safety laws. What does it mean for Canada well, extra costs for inspections, farm inspections, and fees for a start.  As they say the USA gets a snease the rest of us gets the cold.

I think it is something we all should spending more time evaluating.

 

Bill S.510.Section 305 is entitled "BUILDING CAPACITY OF FOREIGN GOVERNMENTS WITH RESPECT TO FOOD SAFETY" and it gives the FDA authority to set up offices in foreign countries and then dictate the food safety plans of foreign governments.

SEC. 308. FOREIGN OFFICES OF THE FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION.
(a) IN GENERAL. - The Secretary shall establish offices of the FDA in foreign countries selected by the Secretary.

It then goes on to say:

(a) The Secretary shall, not later than 2 years of the date of enactment of this Act, develop a comprehensive plan to expand the technical, scientific, and regulatory food safety  capacity of foreign governments, and their respective food industries, from which foods are exported to the United States.
Sec. 305 includes;
(c) Plan - The plan developed under subsection (a) shall include, as appropriate, the following:

  •  Provisions for secure electronic data sharing.  
  • Training of foreign governments and food producers on United States requirements for safe food.

Well its too late now, its US law. If any country refuses to go by the rules they are fined or their product is refused to be allow in the country. You go to the border with your produces in a truck you get inspected you pay for the inspection, the produce is not allowed in because it is'nt on the list of approve foods. Then you are fined for trying to import prohibed substances. This is not lets talk about it, this end of days stuff, 1984. Free trade agreement, my foot. Japan when to war over this sort of thing. This is not only Canada's problem it affects Australia, NZ, South America, Mexico everyone. This is the nail in the coffin for all small to medium farms. The general public at large. Has Canada seen trees with their fuit rotting on them because they are not the right varitey or gene, or a truck loads of milk tipped in fields because the cows weren't injected by the right antibiotic, or meat works closed as now because the animal is not carrying a certain gene. This NWO they control the vertical and the horzontal, you control nothing. It as been said so many times a country that can't feed itself is doomed.

Alberta Biotech to Strengthen Environmental Performance in the Energy Sector

Genome Alberta, with support from the Government of Alberta, is pleased to announce five new projects, with a total value of $2.9 million to accelerate broader application of genomic technologies for improving environmental outcomes in Alberta’s energy sector. Genomics is the big data science that allows us to study the genetic material in all living things. Leveraging machine learning and AI tools allows us to understand how things function at a molecular level including how microbes contribute to environmental processes like reclamation, enhance recovery of oil while lowering emissions intensity and interact with hydrogen through production, transportation and storage. The Genomic Innovations: Energy and Environmental Solutions initiative supports collaborative projects between academic research and industry to scale genomics innovations from the lab and support their real-world deployment for broader benefit. This initiative brings energy companies and researchers together to brid

Replenish Nutrients Secures $250,000 in Sustainable CAP Funding to Support Beiseker Facility Scale-Up

Replenish Nutrients Holding Corp. (CSE: ERTH) (OTC: VVIVF) ("Replenish" or the "Company"), a leader in regenerative agriculture solutions, is pleased to announce that it has been approved for a grant of up to $250,000 funded by the governments of Canada and Alberta under the Sustainable Canadian Agricultural Partnership (Sustainable CAP) Value-Added Program. The funding is designated for the Beiseker Granulation project, supporting the Company's previous 2025 capital investments in fertilizer processing equipment at its Beiseker, Alberta facility. This facility recently achieved significant operational milestones, reaching sustained production rates of 4–5 metric tonnes per hour as it transitions toward full-scale commercial operations. The facility's targeted output is approximately 2,000 metric tonnes per month once final conveyance, load-out systems, and 24-hour operations are fully implemented. Supporting Diversification, Innovation and Growth The Sustainable CAP Value-Added Pro

Alberta Insect Pest Monitoring Network

Quality assurance, market access and yield are key to the success of Alberta’s agriculture industry. Surveillance and monitoring for insects provides a key piece to this success by gathering information about established species populations and new invasive threats to the cropping industry. This information can play an important piece in support of pest related trade discussions. This work helps us to understand insect populations and range expansion of the targeted insects so that industry can understand the risk and potential damage. The information gathered from pheromone traps, field insect collections and counts or damage assessment is used to create forecast maps and make control recommendations. The data from the surveys is used for more than just creating forecast maps though, it can be used to direct insect pest research priorities or researchers can use the collection of samples in their studies. The Alberta Insect Pest Monitoring Network coordinates, manages and carries ou

Public feedback welcomed for updating Beef Code of Practice

Canada's Beef Code of Practice is undergoing its most significant update in more than a decade. The code, last updated in 2013, sets national expectations for cattle care and animal welfare. One of the most noticeable changes in the draft is a stronger focus on how cattle cope with adverse weather. For the first time, heat and humidity are clearly addressed. "There is a recommendation pertaining to accessing adequate water during heat events and also strategies to support cattle and I will note that this is heat and/or humidity, recognizing that the two operate very much in tandem." said Dr. Leigh Rosengren, Chief Veterinary Officer with the Canadian Cattle Association. Nutrition and water management are another focus. Dr. Rosengren notes there will be strengthened expectations around monitoring body condition and taking action before cattle become too thin. "We did emphasize in the code that there is a requirement for corrective action to be taken for beef cattle with a body cond
