Monsanto Canada Inc. v. Schmeiser, 2004 SCC 34, [2004] 1 S.C.R. 902 <br /><br />I suspect though that Monsanto would wish they had their success in the EU rather than CA given the relative market sizes.<br /><br />Will this decision lead to countries with weaker patents, or weaker gene based patent protection developing specialization as 'generic crop' exporters?James Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02409399188953903135noreply@blogger.com
