I started a new thread just in case others may have gotten responses back from various organizations - I think knowing the responses will be helpful.
I have sent numerous dissertations to quite a lot of the larger organizations. I got this response back today from Sierra Legal. He sounded nice, but didn't leave much to look forward to. Heard the same thing from the Human Rights Legal...
There are some links he left me with so they are doing some good -
Mm

Dear Ms. Mae,
We have had involvement in the Genetically Modified Organisms, including the current Saskatchewan Court of Appeal case, as well as a challenge to the Auditor General, (see below). We intend to remain on this issues.
In terms of the issues, you address in your email, these are truly concerning concerning. As a Non-profit legal organization, we simply would not have any expertise in this area, which clearly requires more scientific research.
Thus, we are unable to assist you in this cause, however, warranted it might be. Unquestionably your effort to raise public awareness and advocating further research are highly beneficial, and hope you are able to shed some further light on this issues.
Your truly,
Dave.
