B.C. cities join in anti-GMO battle Sunday, November 3, 2013 Municipalities in British Columbia have joined the anti-GMO fray. In September, the Union of British Columbia Municipalities passed a resolution asking the provincial government "to legislate the prohibition on importing, exporting and growing plants and seeds containing genetically engineered DNA, and raising GE (genetically enhanced) animals within BC (sic), and to declare, through legislation, that BC is a GE Free area in respect to all plant and animal species." Particularly delighted is Alex Atamanenko, NDP MP for British Columbia Southern Interior, a retired school teacher, according to his constituency office's press release. "Those grassroots organizers, passionate citizens and dedicated public officials are all to be applauded for bringing about such a momentous result," stated Atamanenko. "I have found that when people are armed with accurate information about GE crops and the industry behind it they are outraged and want to put an end to it."
