Yes, but producers should not be able to patent seeds

The Green Party of Canada is concerned about the concentration of power in the hands of a few large corporations that control the production and distribution of genetically engineered seeds. They support the rights of farmers to save and reuse seeds and oppose the patenting of seeds. While they do not completely reject the use of genetically engineered crops, they believe that the patenting of seeds can lead to negative consequences for farmers and the environment.
