Monsanto Company is one of the world’s leading agro-chemical companies. With its wealth and power, it seemed impossible for anyone to take this company to court and win, much less a middle class canola farmer from Canada. Percy Schmeiser was that farmer. He was the first farmer ever to win a law suit against this multinational giant. The landmark case, which went before the Federal Court of Canada, attracted international attention because it demonstrated the power of a single farmer. Since then, Mr. Schmeiser has been traveling around the world to lecture about his experience speaking to farmers, the public as well as government leaders about this case.
