Cancellation of Variety Registration by Request in Canada

SF3. If people before thought that companies would look out for anyone than share holders, they couldn't have been that smart

Another thought is since we share a common boarder we could grow more American varieties. As pointed out it's already common in some areas.
As it is now Canadian farmers have it so we can grow anything and deliver into US at street prices.

Yet if we try and grow a US or Unregistered variety all it can be sold as is feed in Canada.

This is one of those hypocritical positions that are undefendable when called out.

There is no good reason to deregister cereals any more.

It costs Nothing to leave them registered

We need the biodiversity of past seed to continue into the future without any restrictions.

Having some seed stock in a farmers storage anywhere is all it takes to keep a variety registered.

Very simple, and costs nothing for anyone else.

plus one.

Well said.

If a variety isn't accepted by farmers in general it won't be used. It basically de registers itself.

Centennial peas disappeared pretty quick around here.

Canola has been treated like cars and trucks - diffferent packaging or a new name but basically the same thing, more money.
