spring wife's
I let's do this audio cassettes to get saw this audio
I am newsperson on America blog
this is fourteen-year-old
anti GM 0 activists Rachel correct she's Canadian
this debate is taking place on a pro Gamo Canadian
the will make Canadian TV show
I can remember the name but its I am hosting kevin O'Leary
who apparently was also won the hosts of Shark Tank whatever that I'm still is
where that show is a go about the its it's it's about
entrepreneurs China raise money from these big CEO's
this guy's exposing himself as a very greasy old man in some respects and it's
not even that old
I so greedy greedy yes kevin O'Leary
who apparently had them I
a lot to say about anti GM 0 activists and
he really is they've invited this fourteen-year-old on who do
who challenge kevin O'Leary at a public speech to a debate
and
here's o'leary tried and she's been on the show for a minute or two when the
circlip picks up
his o'leary pretending that he cares about
the poor starving kids
in third world countries are courses debate about GM 0
I G Mo usage in labeling in Canada
but here's o'leary trying to trump her arguments
play this clip and let's say
you weren't as lucky as you are you were born in Asian country or
fourteen-years-old
you're only food was rice that have no vitamin E
you're going blind and then you die 550,000 people your age die that way
every year
and a company like Monsanto to come along an offer you a genetically
modified rice includes vitamin a pic to save your eyesight and your life
how do you feel about that richer actually funny you mention this Golden
Rice was scrapped because it didn't work
and in order for the average 11-year-old boy to get enough vitamin A from rice
he'd have to eat eleven no 27 balls a price per day
I'm and another thing is the reason there's blindness
is it because there's a lack of vitamin A in the race
it's because they're diets are simply rights but that's the problem you're
saying even if the st. 30 balls arris there's no vitamin A what he's eating
now
it's not scrap is still being tested and the bottom line is that the
other ways to modify food to say people like that should we not be trying these
things to help those that are dying or
okay so here is just got faced on is talking point that he got from Monsanto
about a product that does not exist essentially
now he's all argument now to this this fourteen-year-old girls
well if they a unicorn came
and said we could sell more probs would you be against solving all problems
continue you against that too
should we be messing with mother nature well what do you say to a child your age
that's going to die
what you say I mean in all reality because golden eyes didn't work
how can we fight for that and so you don't wanna see
any attempts to stop food from being destroyed by insects
I mean that but I'm trying to focus you on this is there no merits
to this at all from your point of view my point of view was just that
it should be for civil tested a lot more I mean it's only tested by the very
companies that stand to gain by their approval
so I really think that it we should have independent studies and then mandatory
jima labeling
that's my thing that way we can as consumers
have informed decisions well there's two debates going on here when you wanna see
Lake
now are we just got this guy got faced again
are you against everything that's good
well actually I'm saying that we need to have labeling and we need to test this
stuff
and now what
leary's going to do o'leary's gonna do is he's now going to break this out
he thought he realizes he's just lost the labeling debate
to this fourteen-year-old girl and there's no reason in the world why we
shouldn't have transparency about this
in if GM owes have a bad image in GR moser afraid
that if we label this stuff that people are gonna buy it
that's their problem that's their
problem they need to do more to compel people
to feel like they can trust something that has that on the label
that's their problem so he's not gonna try conflict these things and now I
realize he's lost once we need to bring in the other went to conflate
got blink thats one thing
but are you against modifying food at all
which one I actually
I know this sounds radical but yes I am against
genetically modifying our food I race I have a problem with that that may be
causing
or basically giving death sentence to millions of people around the world are
not as fortunate as you are
you know that GM owes actually don't have higher yield either
I thought the point is to stop experimentation
in a sign posit this now he just lost the debate
he's trying to make the argument that by saying that you're against genetically
modified foods
you are you are York
your cat to death sentence you're causing people to die
by being against it and then she says well there's no evidence
that it is stopping the death so that anyone there's no higher yields
these going now he has to change the debate again
to saying that she's against experimentation go
that has so much promise could be a huge mistake
and effectively be a death sentence for those that need higher heels if they can
get them
okay so he's now change shifted the debate
from you're against a energy amo foods here against labeling you're against the
the existence assuming they could do what I am claiming that they can do but
we both
it now acknowledge they can't so now you're against experimentation
well she responds
a couple minutes later for she talked about the difference between hybrid in
GM oh the notion that we've always had hybrids
but GM always is is very different this guy you taking
by DNA from from from different term
from my different a organisms
that would never essentially be able to be injected into someone else's
or something else is DNA but then she goes on to talk about
you talk about experimentation there are no independent s
for instance a common trait
is pesticide producing so to make the crops
pesticide producing but they haven't adequately tested Monsanto's longer
studies ninety days
that really doesn't determine how long term it's going to affect our health
the environment and even our entire ecosystem you know
saying my CentOS test to 90 days is a little mislabeling it because many other
organizations including us out note the irony of him saying mislabeling
get like some once you're involved in too much more testing so
a product comes to market many people tested including the government itself
Monsanto know was that about physically and can I just
it help and then or the FDA do any independent studies
and they rely only on the very start is provided by the companies that stand to
gain by their approval like Monsanto
there's other companies as well right yes
so there you have it he the
this guy is bald-faced lying to a 14-year-old because he's losing the
debate by claiming that there are other extensive studies that exist out there
by
some an organization certainly not the government it turns out he's completely
wrong
so here he is in full retreat now
and this is just the the capper no in fact
I fourteen-year-old there are it could extensive tests
to definitely we need a long-term study
to determine if its a friend not only are ecosystem but our health as well
I Rachel were in a long-term study here eating genetically modified food by the
writer the lab rats
that and yeah exactly
where the lab rats exactly
miss guys simply arguing that we should we are the lab rats over the lab rats
least there's lot rats
good for her upload 10 put that clip in the
the been up clips that I will play my daughter
very impressive this incredible really
and it just goes on and then later on we to she he tries to
ambush her with the clip from a documentary that his daughter made
and she's like yeah I actually have seen that has some problems with that
admitted he decided not to run the clever if he still afraid that eases
daughters now bout to get faced
