Environmental and indirect human health risk assessment of the Glofish® Tetras (Gymnocorymbus ternetzi) : five lines of transgenic ornamental fish.: Fs70-6/2019-002E-PDF

"The biotechnology provisions of the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 (CEPA) take a preventative approach to environmental protection by requiring all new living organism products of biotechnology, including genetically engineered fish, to be notified and assessed prior to their import into Canada or manufacture in Canada, to determine whether they are “toxic” or capable of becoming “toxic”. Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) and Health Canada (HC) are mandated to conduct all risk assessments under CEPA."--Context, page [1].
