Thanks wd9. You have identified more aligators in the swamp of my barley project. I have to keep in mind the outcome is to drain the swamp (or in this case ensure barley is a profitable crop that competes with other crops in Alberta for acreage and resources).

Here is an interesting site to bookmark - the government of Canada site that outlines the regulatory structure for approving biotech.

This includes Environment Canada (living modified organism), Health Canada and Canadian Food Inspection Agency. You can even look at the whole approval process for something like clearfield wheat.
