The Canadian Cancer Society is pleased the Provincial Government is taking steps towards banning cosmetic pesticides. The Special Committee on Cosmetic Pesticides, made up of MLAs, is planning on conducting province wide consultations to investigate and issue recommendations on the elimination of the unnecessary use of the chemicals. Spokesperson for the society, Kerensa Medhurst, says they have been working a long time to bring this issue to the attention of the government.
“The Canadian Cancer Society is very concerned about the cosmetic use of pesticides, which are substances used to control weeds, insects, animals or fungi,” says Medhurst, “they’ve been linked to negative health and environmental impacts and there’s a growing body of evidence linking pesticide exposure to both childhood and adults cancers.”
British Columbians can participate by completing an online questionnaire or by sending the committee a written submission or audio file. To access the questionnaire, or for more info here. The call for public input closes December 16th.

It's very cool what is happening down in the US with the “Raw Milk Freedom Riders–Milk and Cookies Rally” on Tuesday November 1st. Michael Schmidt will be there too. I hope he has a chance to come down to Village #Occupy when he is here in Vancouver for the contempt of court nonsense. But sinc ...
I've said over and over again that our leaders are literally insane because they are infested with parasitic microorganisms (similar to this parasitic fungi that brainwashes ants). Now we are seeing the true depths of their blind madness. They are so obsessed with controlling everything they can't s ...
I had a special request to write this recipe down right away so I don't forget it. It is indeed delicious, but I think it is more the care put into finding good ingredients than the precise measurements described in the recipe given below. I've recently been reading about the Sikhs and their culinar ...
I've been spending all the time I can lately down Village #Occupy Vancouver. It is so lovely to have a new-old village in the middle of the downtown!
