Canadian anti-biotech darling strikes again…

Percy Schmeiser, the Canadian farmer who was convicted of contract breach in the Canadian Supreme Court because he was brown bagging Monsanto seed against the license agreement he had signed, has decided to sue Monsanto in civilian court.

He is now claiming that there has been another incident of pollen flow onto his field from the neighbor’s field, so he is suing for approximately $582, which is the cost of removing the oilseed rape plants that grew on the field where he was preparing to grow mustard greens.

The funny thing is that Schmeiser has become enough of a anti-biotech wonder boy to warrant a 600 word story in British Guardian, even though this story would usually not even warrant a write up in a local paper…
