LOW CUNNING, MANIPULATIVE, PROFESSIONAL LIARS COMBINED WITH NAIVETE, LAZINESS, INCOMPETENCE & COMPLACENCY

The list in the title above covers just about the gamut of politicians even more so than professional bureaucrats. Just as it is inaccurate to suggest that all athletes are not smart people including the doctors and lawyers among them, it would be inaccurate to suggest that all politicians are dishonest, corrupt liars. Now of course our so called democratic system does encourage those negative traits unfortunately. I would suggest that to date the seven different groups that I invited to partake in the receiving of the Pacific Rim seven page lab report are led by people distinctly lacking certain personal virtues. That is why they are the leaders and the less observant and vigilant are the followers. From Woolwich Council to the Ministry of Environment (MECP), GHD, Regional Council, GRCA, TAG and RAC they all stepped into it when they made excuses not to receive that professional lab report from Pacific Rim. What has irrevocably damaged the Elmira cleanup for the last 32 years has been the biased, one sided and self-serving technical reports issued by CRA and GHD on behalf of Uniroyal/Crompton/Chemtura/Lanxess. They have rarely been science so much as psuedo science, junk science and wishful thinking all for the benefit of the polluting company. ............................................................................................................ My question to all the guilty parties was expected to elicit a number of negative responses as the dumber groups/leaders automatically jumped to our world class polluter's (Uniroyal) defence. Afterall that's what they've been doing either subtly or blatantly since 1989. Imagine my surprise when they ALL jumped on the save Lanxess bandwagon. The silly twits know where there bread is butterred and believe Lanxess=Good and private ciizens=BAD. Hilariously Lanxess didn't get the memo. I have to wonder if all the fellow travellors actually did conspire together to refuse this lab report or if they all individually screwed up. ......................................................................................................................... Was this test the sole definitive determinant of these groups dishonesty? Of course not. I've been following this process since 1989 when I worked at Varnicolor Chemical in Elmira. I was a believer back then in the inherent honesty and truthfulness of human beings, politicians and especially government agencies allegedly protecting the public interest. My God the blatant, without a second thought lying of the Ontario Ministry of the Environment (MOE/MECP) prior to their finally realizing that I had an individual inside Varnicolor feeding me information and advance notice of what the MOE were doing/covering up. I also took a couple of years at least to realize how biased and pro Uniroyal the original UPAC (Uniroyal Public Advisory Committee) was. Soon APTE had named them the Uniroyal Public Appreciation Club. It also took longer to understand how totally compromised Woolwich Township was with perhaps the only faint light being during the Todd Cowan regieme. ............................................................................................................... In hindsight there have been exactly zero public bodies allegedly working in the public interest that have done so. It's possible that some actually have convinced themselves otherwise but that doesn't make it so. The ONLY faint hope have been independent citizens standing up along the way and publicly stating the truth. Those unfortunately over time have mostly dropped out, passed on or just thrown in the towel against overwhelming odds.
