Here are my concerns:

-PMRA uses primarily industry supplied testing to make decision

PMRA is greatly backlogged at present. By federal law, all pesticides are supposed to be re-evaluated every 15 years. The PMRA cannot possibly do this, and they have admitted this.

PMRA uses different standards to the OPAC. 2-4D e.g. is permitted for lawns (glyphosate) It is NOT permitted under cosmeticpesticide bans

Bioaccumulation testing (as required by the Pesticide Act, Canada, has not been carried out for most pesticides.

OPAC included many different experts, including beekeepers.
