This week’s webpanel survey shows that business leaders are substantially confident in GMO foods and enthusiastic about the quality of Canadian beef. Given their confidence in GMO’s, one might expect business to perceive the food trade sanctions imposed by Europe as largely driven by protectionist considerations rather than concerns about health, and they do. They likewise perceive the Japanese ban on Canadian beef as driven by trade interests. These are the key findings from the Financial Post/COMPAS survey.
