Tim Townsend:
Canada allows plastic in it's organic standard.

I have come to the conclusion I see no problem with this with food grade plastic frames, but would like to clarify sizing is still important, and am very happy, more and more products like HSC and 4.9mm plastic is available, or close there to, in sizing, for beekeepers to be able to regress back down their honeybees body sizing for healthier bees.
Pierco is in the 5.2mm range to me and would be nice if it would come down more closer to the middle of the size specturm in the natural world for more usage. For if HSC can do it, Pierco can too!
It is good to read Canada allow plastic in it's organic standard and though USA federal laws have not been finalized, that I think should be in the USA federal laws also. Besides Canada and USA have for the most part always worked together pretty much and should continue.
