Environmental, health and food safety groups call on the Government of Canada to reorient federal regulation of pesticides to centre on risk reduction in alignment with Target 7 of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework. Target 7 requires signatories, including Canada, to reduce the overall risk from pesticides by at least half by 2030. Achieving this goal
will require a suite of new measures with a focus on reducing pesticide use and exposure.
