Original sentence: Concerns were raised from multiple sources that the facts and context of the case was being misrepresented by Schmeiser, environmental groups and anti-genetic engineering activists and that the ruling that these groups sought would make Canada inhospitable to biotechnology industry and so restrict the choices of small farmers and make Canadian farming less profitable and more difficult.Environmental groups and anti-genetic engineering activists championed Schmeiser's cause, he spoke on the case around the world, and hundreds of thousands of dollars were raised from donations for his defense fund.. Agricultural scientists and farmers noted that such massive fundraising and public relations excercises on Schmeiser's behalf rendered attempts to portray the case as a David and Goliath battle "a crock" and that the case was in reality a contest between a large biotechnology company and an equally large and well funded anti-biotechnology industry.The contest was portrayed by some as a classic David-and-Goliath confrontation between small farmer and Monsanto, while others portrayed it as as a case of the blatant theft of years of research and development by a dishonest small businessman who sought an unfair advantage over his honest neighbours
