Ok, Miriam - I'm about to leave for a week's training where
I won't have email, but remind me when I'm back to highlight
how the US is using NATFA and other trade agreements to
prevent Canada and other countries from labelling genetically
modified or organic food as such (although I believe that they're
offering a compromise - as long as the definition of organic doesn't
include includes GM)

Cheers
Martin
