AquaBounty GM Salmon Eggs Cleared for Production in Canada

25 November 2013

CANADA - Environment Canada, the agency of the Government of Canada with responsibility for regulating environmental policies and issues, has decided that Genetically Modified (GM) AquAdvantage® Salmon from AquaBounty Technologies is not harmful to the environment or human health when produced in contained facilities.

AquaBounty will therefore now be able to produce eggs on a commercial scale at its facility in Prince Edward Island, Canada.

The publication of the Significant New Activity Notice recognizes that the Companys hatchery, which produces sterile, all-female eggs, is no longer solely a research facility but can produce eggs on a commercial scale without harm to the environment or human health.
