ENVIRONMENTAL COMMISSIONER SLAMS ONTARIO GOVERNMENT

Yesterday's Waterloo Region Record carrys this story "Watchdog warns of crisis over bees, air pollution". The bees is of course in regards to the use of neonicotonoid pesticides and the air pollution is primarily due to the impacts of petrochemical air emissions in Ontario's notorious "chemical valley" near Sarnia. According to Gord Miller these air emissions have caused a health "crisis" in a First Nations reserve nearby. Years ago I can recall newspaper articles about the gender imbalance of newborns in the area. The concern was that chemical hormone mimicers were causing fewer male babies to be born in the area. Health effects of that nature may be the most obvious and possibly just the tip of the iceberg.
