Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency ( PMRA ) is responsible for administering the Pest Control Products Act on behalf of the Minister of Health.
At the PMRA, before a pest control product is allowed to be used or sold in Canada, it must undergo a rigorous scientific assessment process which provides reasonable certainty that NO HARM WILL OCCUR, including chronic effects such as cancer, when used according to label directions.
Health Canada has reached the following conclusions about Glyphosate ―
• Glyphosate is NOT expected to pose risks of concern to human health or the environment.
• Health Canada has granted the continued registration of Glyphosate.
• Health Canada, as well as all other national regulatory agencies world-wide, have vindicated Glyphosate ― these agencies include those within the European Union, the United States, and the United Nations.
• NO pesticide regulatory authority in the world considers Glyphosate to be a carcinogenic risk of concern.
• NO risk of concerns to human health or the environment have been identified with Glyphosate’s surfactants, like Polyethoxylated Tallow Amines ( POEA ).
• Non-occupational risks are NOT of concern.
• Non-occupational risks from by-stander dermal exposure are NOT of concern.
• Overall, there are currently NO environmental incident reports involving Glyphosate in Canada.
• Products containing Glyphosate are UNLIKELY to affect your health.
• The dietary risks for Glyphosate are NOT a risk of concern.
• There are NO health concerns with Glyphosate for all segments of the population, including pregnant and nursing women, infants, children, and seniors, when all possible food sources are eaten every day, over a life-time.
• There is NO expectation of risk of concern for pollinators, beneficial insects, and amphibians.
• To further protect workers entering treated sites, a Restricted-Entry Interval of 12 hours is now required for agricultural uses of Glyphosate.
The evidence in favour of Glyphosate is overwhelming.

Frequently Asked Questions About Health Canada’s Re-Evaluation Decision RVD2017-01, Glyphosate
Q-1. What Is Glyphosate Used For In Canada ?!?!
Glyphosate, marketed under brand names such as RoundupTM and VisionTM, is the most widely used herbicide in Canada.
It plays an important role in weed management for both agricultural production and non-agricultural land management.
Glyphosate products are used to control many weeds, including many invasive weeds and toxic plants, such as poison ivy.

Frequently Asked Questions About Health Canada’s Re-Evaluation Decision RVD2017-01, Glyphosate
Q-2. What Were The Main Findings Of Health Canada’s Re-Evaluation ?!?!
Glyphosate Is NOT Expected
To Pose Risks Of Concern
To Human Health Or
The Environment
Health Canada has carried out a rigorous science-based Re-Evaluation for herbicides containing Glyphosate to ensure that they continue to meet modern standards for human health and environmental protection and provide value.
The findings are that, when used according to the label instructions, products containing Glyphosate are NOT EXPECTED TO POSE RISKS OF CONCERN TO HUMAN HEALTH OR THE ENVIRONMENT.
Label directions such as those described later in this document are intended to further reduce exposure.
For example, as Glyphosate is a herbicide, it may harm non-target terrestrial and aquatic plants.
Therefore, SPRAY BUFFER ZONES [ i.e. VEGETATIVE STRIPS ] are being required to protect sensitive plants from spray drift.

Frequently Asked Questions About Health Canada’s Re-Evaluation Decision RVD2017-01, Glyphosate
Q-3. What Are The New Label Changes ?!?!
To Further Protect Workers Entering
Treated Sites, A Restricted-Entry
Interval Of 12 Hours Is Now Required
For Agricultural Uses Of Glyphosate
Manufacturers are required to make label changes on product labels NO later than 24 months after the publication of the Re-Evaluation Decision on Glyphosate.
As a result of the Re-Evaluation, the Department is requiring the following information to be conveyed through statements on labels ―
HUMAN HEALTH – RESTRICTED-ENTRY INTERVAL
• To protect commercial and residential applicators ― Glyphosate is NOT to be applied using hand-wicking or hand-daubing methods, which involve applying the herbicide directly by hand, or with a hand-held tool, on individual plants.
• To protect workers entering treated sites ― a Restricted-Entry Interval of 12 HOURS is required for AGRICULTURAL USES.
• To protect by-standers ― a statement is required indicating that the product is to be applied only when the potential for drift to areas of human habitation or areas of human activity, such as houses, cottages, schools and recreational areas, is minimal.
ENVIRONMENT – BUFFER ZONES
• Environmental hazard statements will be added to inform users of toxicity to non-target species.
• SPRAY BUFFER ZONES [ i.e. VEGETATIVE STRIPS ] are required, to protect non-target terrestrial and aquatic habitats.
• To reduce the potential for run-off of Glyphosate to adjacent aquatic habitats, precautionary statements are required ( for sites with characteristics that may be conducive to run-off and when heavy rain is forecasted ). In addition, SPRAY BUFFER ZONES [ i.e. VEGETATIVE STRIPS ] between the treatment area and the edge of a water body are recommended to reduce run-off of Glyphosate to aquatic areas.

Q-4. What Information Did PMRA Consider During The Re-Evaluation ?!?!
Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency ( PMRA ) considered …
• federal and provincial governments
• published scientific reports
• relevant data and information from registrants
• other regulatory agencies.
Rigorous scientific evaluations were conducted to determine whether Glyphosate would cause any negative effects to people, animals, birds, insects, plants as well as on soil and water, when used according to label directions.

Q-5. What Other Ingredients Are In Herbicides That Contain Glyphosate ?!?!
NO Risk Of Concerns To Human
Health Or The Environment
Were Identified With Glyphosate’s
Surfactants, Like Polyethoxylated
Tallow Amines ( POEA )
Pesticides, including Glyphosate products, are marketed in different formulations, such as solutions and granules.
Other substances called formulants are intentionally added to herbicides to improve how they work, such as making them more soluble or spreadable so they can be more effective in destroying weeds.
Both the active ingredient Glyphosate and its formulated products were considered during the Re-Evaluation.
Certain Glyphosate products also contain Polyethoxylated Tallow Amines ( POEA ), which functions as a surfactant.
NO RISK OF CONCERNS to human health or the environment were identified provided that products contained NO more than 20 per cent POEA by weight and Proposed label directions ( including larger SPRAY BUFFER ZONES [ i.e. VEGETATIVE STRIPS ] for products that contain POEA ) are followed.
All currently registered Glyphosate end-use products in Canada meet the 20 per cent limit.

Frequently Asked Questions About Health Canada’s Re-Evaluation Decision RVD2017-01, Glyphosate
Q-6. Was The Public Consulted On The Glyphosate Re-Evaluation Decision ?!?!
What Did Health Canada Do With The Comments Received ?!?!
Health Canada’s Re-Evaluation Program ensures that registered herbicides like Glyphosate regularly undergo re-evaluation, using internationally accepted assessment techniques and current scientific information.
This is a legal requirement under the Pest Control Products Act.
As part of this process, Health Canada published the Proposed Re-Evaluation Decision on Glyphosate for public consultation in 2015. [ See link below. ]
Comments were received from various stake-holders/ including registrants, growers, and the public.
All comments received during the consultation period were taken into consideration.
These comments and new information resulted in only minor revisions, which are reflected in the final Re-Evaluation Decision.

Frequently Asked Questions About Health Canada’s Re-Evaluation Decision RVD2017-01, Glyphosate
Q-7. Why Does Health Canada Consider Glyphosate As Unlikely To Be A Cancer Risk While The World Health Organization’s [ WHO ] International Agency Of Research On Cancer [ IARC ] Has Deemed Glyphosate As « Possibly Carcinogenic To Humans » ?!?!
√ Fact ― International Agency
For Research On Cancer ( IARC )
Is NOT To Be Trusted
[ BACKGROUND INFORMATION ― On March 20th, 2015, the IARC’s bogus hazard study arbitrarily classified Glyphosate as PROBABLY CARCINOGENIC on the basis of LIMITED EVIDENCE. IARC’s use of the term LIMITED EVIDENCE clearly implied that its study was SEVERELY FLAWED, DISTORTED, and UNBALANCED. ]
Hazard classifications are NOT the same as health risk assessments. Hazard classifications established by the World Health Organization DO NOT take into account the levels of human exposure, which determines the actual risk.
Pest control products are registered for use in Canada only if the level of exposure to Canadians DOES NOT cause any harmful effects, including cancer.
To reach its decision, the PMRA applies risk assessment methods that consider sensitive population subgroups in both humans ( for example, children ) and organisms in the environment ( for example, those most sensitive to environmental contaminants ).
As part of the Re-Evaluation Decision for Glyphosate, Health Canada reviewed the dietary exposure to Glyphosate and found that the levels found in food would NOT be a health risk to Canadians.

Frequently Asked Questions About Health Canada’s Re-Evaluation Decision RVD2017-01, Glyphosate
Q-9. Why Has Canada Come Out With A Decision To Continue Registration Of Glyphosate Products Ahead Of Europe & The United States ?!?!
Aren’t You Working Together ?!?!
Canada works closely with its international counterparts to ensure that regulations for herbicides are aligned internationally.
During the Re-Evaluation of Glyphosate, Health Canada worked co-operatively with the United States Environmental Protection Agency [ US EPA ] by sharing study reviews, as well as reviews of relevant published literature.
However, consistent with other joint activities, each country conducts their own risk assessments, taking into consideration country-specific legislation and policies.
This is why decisions are NOT always published at the same time.
Health Canada is aware of the recent United States Environmental Protection Agency’s Scientific Advisory Panel report on Glyphosate.
The Department will continue to monitor regulatory activities from the United States, including the Environmental Protection Agency’s review of the Scientific Advisory Panel recommendations, and their final determination regarding the potential carcinogenicity of Glyphosate.
Health Canada will take appropriate action if human health or environmental risks of concern are identified.

Frequently Asked Questions About Health Canada’s Re-Evaluation Decision RVD2017-01, Glyphosate
Q-10. Does Glyphosate Affect The Traditional Diet Of First Nations Communities ?!?!
The First Nations traditional diet may consist of vegetation foraged from the land and forest instead of farmed vegetation.
Depending on the province, each provincial jurisdiction may use pesticides, including Glyphosate, to treat invasive weeds on the land.
Forestry management falls under provincial jurisdiction.
Based on the dietary risk assessment conducted by Health Canada, the Department can extrapolate that the anticipated residues of Glyphosate in edible forest vegetation would NOT be of concern when ingested as part of the traditional diet.

Frequently Asked Questions About Health Canada’s Re-Evaluation Decision RVD2017-01, Glyphosate
Q-12. What Are The Maximum Residue Limits [ MRLs ] For Glyphosate ?!?!
There Are NO Health Concerns With
Glyphosate For All Segments Of The
Population, Including Pregnant &
Nursing Women, Infants, Children, &
Seniors, When All Possible Food Sources
Are Eaten Every Day, Over A Life-Time
Health Canada establishes Maximum Residue Limits ( MRLs ) for pesticide residues in all foods, including genetically modified foods [ GMOs ], regardless of whether they are grown in Canada or imported.
Canadian MRLs are set only after an extensive review of the scientific information and after a thorough risk assessment confirms that THERE ARE NO HEALTH CONCERNS TO ALL SEGMENTS OF THE POPULATION ( including pregnant and nursing women, infants, children and seniors ), when all possible food sources are eaten every day, over a life-time.
MRLs are set for each pesticide-crop combination and are well below levels that could pose a health concern.

Frequently Asked Questions About Health Canada’s Re-Evaluation Decision RVD2017-01, Glyphosate
Q-13. Are The Levels Of Glyphosate Found On Food In Canada Considered Safe ?!?!
How Are The Maximum Residue Limits [ MRLs ] Enforced ?!?!
The Dietary Risks For Glyphosate
Are NOT A Risk Of Concern
Yes, based on the data and information Health Canada reviewed, the Department has assessed dietary risks and found that the levels present are NOT A RISK OF CONCERN FOR HUMAN HEALTH.
The Canadian Food Inspection Agency ( CFIA ) is responsible for monitoring pesticide residues in food.
The CFIA works closely with Health Canada to ensure that foods available on the Canadian market comply with the Maximum Residue Limits ( MRLs ).
Activities include testing of fresh fruits, vegetables, grains, pulses, and oil seeds that are domestically produced, as well as monitoring of imported foods.
To date, the results from monitoring pesticide residues in food show a high degree of compliance with the MRLs.
In 2015, the CFIA tested a large number of samples for Glyphosate, consisting of a wide variety of food commodities.
The CFIA anticipates having its full analysis completed by spring 2017, and the summary of their report will be available on the CFIA web-site.

Frequently Asked Questions About Health Canada’s Re-Evaluation Decision RVD2017-01, Glyphosate
Q-14. In The United States, A Non-Governmental Organization ( Moms Across America ) Claimed That Glyphosate Was Detected In Breast Milk.
How Was This Viewed By Health Canada ?!?!
Trace levels of pesticide residues can occur on food including breast milk.
However, these are at extremely low levels, and well below the amount that would pose a health concern.
( Trace levels are in the parts per billion or parts per trillion range, well below most Glyphosate Maximum Residue Limits ( MRLs ) which are in parts per million ).
Glyphosate MRLs for various food commodities range from 0.08 ppm to 35 ppm, depending on the commodity.
MRLs for pest control products can be found by searching the Canadian Pesticide MRL Database on the Pesticides and Pest Management portion of Health Canada’s web-site.
The Moms Across America article cited health effects in rats exposed to low levels of Glyphosate.
These findings were from a study that was INTERNATIONALLY DISCREDITED by various international organizations and regulatory authorities, including Health Canada, and later retracted by the original publishing journal.
For more information, you can read the Health Canada and Canadian Food Inspection Agency statement on the Seralini et al ( 2012 ) publication on a 2-year rodent feeding study with Glyphosate formulations and GM maize NK603.

Q-15. There Are Reports Claiming That Use Of Glyphosate May Affect Human Health By Affecting Gastro-Intestinal Tract & Its Microbiome.
What Is Health Canada’s View On This Claim ?!?!
Glyphosate targets an amino acid synthesis pathway in plants that is shared by certain types of bacteria, but NOT humans.
There is not much scientific evidence to support the claim that Glyphosate has any direct impact on human gut microflora, or has any subsequent health effect.
Several reports postulate that environmental chemicals may potentially lead to changes in normal gut microbiota.
However, information to date is based on studies done in cell cultures, with animal evidence being limited and inconclusive.
The risk assessment conducted by the PMRA includes consideration of clinical signs of toxicity on the gastro-intestinal tract and is protective of potential effects on the gastro-intestinal tract.

Q-16. What Is The Impact Of Glyphosate Use On Beneficial Insects & Bees As Well As Amphibians ?!?!
Glyphosate Is NOT Expected To Pose
A Risk Of Concern For Pollinators,
Beneficial Insects, & Amphibians
Health Canada has conducted a detailed analysis of relevant studies to determine the impact of Glyphosate use on pollinators, beneficial insects, and amphibians.
It was determined that, when used according to label directions, Glyphosate is NOT EXPECTED TO POSE A RISK OF CONCERN.
SPRAY BUFFER ZONES [ i.e. VEGETATIVE STRIPS ] have been calculated for the protection of more sensitive aquatic organisms to provide additional protection for amphibians.

WE SPEAK THE WHOLE TRUTH ABOUT UPDATES & WARNINGS FROM AN INDEPENDENT PERSPECTIVE !
We are the National Organization Responding Against HUJE that conspire to destroy the Green space and other industries ( NORAHG ). As a non-profit and independent organization, we are environmentalists who are dedicated to reporting about Truth-Challenged Pesticide-Hating Fanatics who conspire to destroy businesses that are dependent on their use of conventional pest control products. We also report on the work of Respected and Highly-Rated Experts who promote Environmental Realism and Pesticide Truths. http://wp.me/p1jq40-8DV
NORAHG is the sworn enemy of lying, pompous, smug, uneducated, & pesticide-hating enviro-fanatics. Overwhelming scientific evidence clearly demonstrates that pest control products are scientifically-safe, and will not cause harm to children, adults, animals, or the environment. http://wp.me/p1jq40-7HR http://wp.me/P1jq40-2ha http://wp.me/p1jq40-6Q6 http://wp.me/p1jq40-5ni
Not surprisingly, enviro-fanatics have demonstrated that they are incapable of processing overwhelming scientific evidence. Should we trust these fanatics, who conveniently ignore scientific evidence, and attempt to impose their politicized-doctrines and twisted life-style choices against our society ?!?!
NORAHG was the brainchild of Mr William H Gathercole and his colleagues in 1991. Mr Gathercole is now retired, although his name continues to appear as founder.
