Codex Alimentarius is a trade commission aimed to control the international trade of food and backed by the World Trade Organization (WTO). Everything edible, except pharmaceuticals, will be controlled by the Codex. This will go into full global effect in the year 2010, and here are a couple of disturbing highlights:

Remember the Bovine Growth Hormone (BGH)? This is a product that increases the milk production in cows. There are numerous other products that do the same thing, as well as different hormones given to cows to increase the production of meat. Artificial hormones that increase production will become MANDATORY! Any vegans out there who think nothing of this should know that all agricultural products would be required to be irradiated. Essentially, all organic food will be illegal. Are you enjoying the New World Order yet?

Under the Codex, all nutrients (vitamins and minerals) are listed as TOXIC MATERIALS. Any substance deemed as toxic is required to be legally regulated to "protect the ignorant, the unthinking and the credulous" through the Science of toxicology. The sciences of toxicology and 'risk management' have one ultimate goal: to limit the amount of the material in question to a point where it will have "no possible affect on humans". So, if the Codex is allowed in the United States, and you go to the store to pick up some glucosamine for your joints or some green tea for. . . well. . . everything, the nutritional content of those tea bags or those gelcaps will be limited to a point where they will have "no possible affect (benefit) on humans".

Result: in the very near future, any health conscious person who would prefer to watch what they eat and take care of themselves will be allowed only two solutions: pharmaceuticals or death.

The Conservative government of Canada has submitted Bill C-51 (first reading was April 8, 2008) to pave the way for Codex to become reality in Canada.

I realize I’m asking for a lot in terms of investing some of your precious time into this, but here I go, my friends:

Please read the information on Bill C-51 here:

If you feel inclined to do so, please sign the petition to stop this monstruosity at this link:

Then, please forward the two links to all of your friends, asking them to do the same.

The petition site was down for 2 days, with no explanation whatsoever, just a simple message: “The petition is now closed” at 17,0157 signatures when the declared goal is 111,111 signatures. I found that strange. Yesterday I called the host of
http://www.stopc51.com
and informed them of the situation, they said it’s “government hackers” and they’d look into it; they did – this morning it was up and running again.

I am amazed, deeply moved and grateful to read posts supportive of this cause from all over the US, New Zealand, Hawaii, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, Barbados, United Kingdom…

This is no longer only about what’s happening in Canada. It has already happened in Europe, will soon happen in the US, with the rest of the world to follow; we are ALL in it together, the only difference is that it hit some sooner than others. We have an opportunity here to send a clear message not only to the Canadian government, but to any other government intent on imposing similar draconic, ludicrous, irrational laws on their people.

I strongly feel this is one of the most serious and tragic issues (if not THE) that the Global Village is facing at this particular moment.

Thank you kindly for your help, attention, and every second of your time you’ll give to this matter,
