This could interesting , for those who can be there - the House of Commons
Committee on Agriculture is holding the third hearing on mandatory
labelling. The Consumers Association and the Quebec consumer group (much
more critical - has a position for labelling) will present. It would be
great if people could go and observe to hear what the CAC has to say but
also to be there as concerned public (*not* represented by CAC position).
You could also introduce yourself to MPs or later phone to meet with them!
