This is aside from the fact that, looking at the molecule, it is impossible to see a moiety that would elicit a cancer response.
Anyway, lawyers and big money are involved, so step back!!

Yes my line, 'Could we be sued if a customer was unlucky enough to develop Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma?’ was cynically tongue in cheek.
No lawyer is going to bother suing gardeners, no money there!
Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma is a terrible cancer and I feel for anyone diagnosed. The cancer was identified before Glyphosate was invented, so it can not be the cause. If the argument is it could be one of the causes, surely epidemiology would have picked up a spike in cases after the introduction of the use of Glyphosate. A spike would have followed the use of Glyphosate as it spread around the world.
