This year, the small BC company called Okanagan Specialty Fruits could get approval in the US and Canada for its GM “non-browning” apple, engineered to keep from going brown after being cut. Contamination from GM apples threatens the future of BC apples, and the farmers who grow them. BC apple growers have already rejected the GM apple and polls show 69% of Canadians oppose it!
