I wonder if there are a lot of medical crops that could be grown here?

Big Pharma is already here (southern alberta) using genetically modified Canola to produce compounds for use in pharmacology products.

Bio- security is severe for these fields. The harvest could mean millions for the drug manufacturer. Pollen contamination from a regular canola crop could drastically reduce the useable compounds.
