| Message | As we said with regards to a previous bill dealing with this issue, the public should be fully informed of both the ingredients and the nutritional value of their food. That way they can make informed choices on their diet. |

| Message | Again the RFP doesn't respect the people's right to know or their ability to deal with the information. The RFP is seeking bliss through ignorance. Defeat this bill. Gene Wellan, MP (Vilbin-Foothills) TDP Food and Agriculture Critic |
