In
 the
 case 
of
 GMOs
 in
 Japan,
 the
 model 
of
 the 
European
 Union
 (EU)
 played
 a 
major
 role. 
In 1998
 the 
anti-GMO
 movement
assigned
 a
 member
 (Akiko
Frid)
 the
 job 
of
 keeping 
up with EU
 developments.
 The
 major
 protests
 in
 Europe
 from
 1996
 to
 1998,
 the
 first
 labeling directives
 of
 1998,
 and
 the
 EU
 moratorium
 of
 1999
 represented
 major
 steps
forward
 and served
 as
 legitimate
 models
 to
 be
 imitated.
 In
 the
 1999
 Cartagena
 negotiations,
 the
 EU advocated
 a
 global
 platform
 to
 spread
 the
 precautionary
 principle
 and
 its
 regulatory approach
 worldwide.
 After
 1999,
 Japanese
 NGOs
 could
 point
 to
 the
 EU
 as
 a
 legitimate model
 and
 point
 to
 legitimate
 international
 law
 in
 the
 form
 of
 the
 Cartagena
 protocol
 in arguing
 for
 change 
in
 Japan’s
 GMO 
approach. (Les Etudes du CERI – n° 124 – avril 2006)

Canadian government urged to stop GE Canola contamination in Japan (24 MAJ 2005)
The NGOs delivered their message the day before the first working group negotiation session on liability for damage caused by genetically modified organisms (GMOs) under the Biosafety Protocol, 25-27 May. Akiko Frid a Japanese representative of Greenpeace will be in Montreal attending the session and also the second full meeting of the Biosafety Protocol starting a few days later on 30th May. Frid said: ‘The contamination caused by GE canola imports to Japan is a good example of why strict liability laws are needed for GMOs. The question is; who pays for the damage caused when genetically engineered seeds contaminate our food and environment?’
Greenpeace Canada took this opportunity to invite Environment Minister Stephane Dion, to meet with them at the opening of the Biosafety Protocol meetings on Monday the 30th of May and collect a specimen of Canadian GE canola found growing in Japan.
