Monsanto's tradition of creating genetically modified foods (gmo foods) may be coming to an end, as health activists in California rise up against gmo products.

Chris J. Slater Taking over Wall Street the last couple of weeks, Bay Street this week. Thanks God, some people finally get it; but not those who report the news or make policy like local councils in Nanaimo and Lantzville. Now is YOUR chance to make a difference! Don't waste it by voting the status quo. If your local and provincial politician isn't part of the solution, they are the problem! Especially if they believe there is no problem with GMO's, Corporate Personhood, always seeking after their ALMIGHTY DOLLAR. A 24% RAISE? If you live in Nanaimo and want some common sense, vote Gord Fuller, if you live in Lantzville vote for change there too!about an hour ago ·- Chris J. Slater Story at-a-glance
You CAN make a MAJOR difference in helping eliminate GMO foods in the US with these simple steps.
In September, lawyers representing a broad coalition of health, environmental, and consumer advocate groups filed papers to launch a California Ballot Initiative that would require mandatory labeling of genetically engineered foods and food ingredients.
If California voters pass this ballot initiative in 2012, it will likely be the beginning of the end for Monsanto and genetically engineered food in the U.S. http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2 011/10/03/cbi-taking-down- monsanto-gmo-products.aspx ?e_cid=20111003_DNL_art_1 Millions Against Monsanto...Let's use this strategy to clean up this toxic mess in Canada starting on a local basis in Lantzville and Nanaimo!! Let's identify who are the Monsanto STOOGES right here and NOW. And let's identify who is for our liberty and freedoms. Let's tell Washington, DC and Ottawa, Ont. WE WANT TO BE HEARD!

"If you put a label on genetically engineered food you might as well put a skull and crossbones on it." - Norman Braksick, president of Asgrow Seed Co., a subsidiary of Monsanto, quoted in the Kansas City Star, March 7, 1994
Monsanto and Food Inc.'s stranglehold over the nation's food and farming system is about to be challenged in a food fight that will largely determine the future of American agriculture. (I believe the world!)
A growing corps of organic food and health activists in California—supported by consumers and farmers across the nation—are boldly standing up to Monsanto and its minions, taking the first steps to expose the widespread contamination of non-organic grocery store foods with Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs), and moving to implement mandatory GMO labeling through a grassroots-powered Citizens Ballot Initiative process.articles.mercola.comMonsanto's tradition of creating genetically modified foods (gmo foods) may be coming to an end, as health activists in California rise up against gmo products.

Mayor Colin Haime; Lantzville, BC, Canada
On the Island we only produce 4% of the FOOD we consume here. The rest of our food has to come from somewhere else in the world: China, California, Florida, Mexico, Thailand: What is going to happen when there is no more cheap transportation or "chemicalized" food?

Mayor Colin Haime; Lantzville, BC, Canada
Chris J. Slater @ GrownFoods says: Your comment is awaiting moderation.
Mayor Haime. I am a Canadian, a British Columbian, a neighbour to Lantzville; I live in the Cowichan Valley Regional District. I moved to Vancouver Island from Edmonton in 1978 to escape the “development above all else” mentality. So although not a resident of Lantzville, I and my family still need clean air, water, food and adequate shelter. No one in this world can live in isolation to anyone else. Having been to Compassion Farm, and having met Dirk Becker and Nicole Shaw, I can assure you the neighbour, Jim Brash and you, as the “majority of Council” – Mayor, wife as a Councillor and the other 2 who are pushing this issue, more than deserve the criticism you are now getting. Unlike you, we are having difficulty obtaining those 4 basics of life. I and my wife just watched you and Dirk on Shaw Cable and we are dismayed at your inflexible attitude and insistence on a flawed 2006 bylaw restricting people from people from growing their own organic air, water, food and shelter. Sir, drop the foolish litigation, stop wasting precious resources. In closing, you and council of Lantzville need to know you were elected to provide leadership in your community, the province of B.C., Canada and the world. So either you will lead, will follow or you will get out of the way; the times are changing.

Standing out amid the typical suburban sea of grass patches are his potatoes, carrots, beats, peas, shallots, squash, parsnips and more -- enough to have given food to 70 people by the beginning of July.
