Overview From An Independent Perspective
According to Canadian Association Of Agri-Retailers ( CAAR ) ―
• Pest control products go through rigorous testing from Health Canada.
• The public must think about pest control products from a scientific perspective.
• The scientific evidence backing up Manitoba’s proposed PROHIBITION just isn’t there.
• There is QUESTIONABLE PUBLIC SUPPORT for PROHIBITION against the use of pest control products in the Province of Manitoba.
( See later segments for more details. )
――――――――――――――――――――
Overview From An Independent Perspective
According to Weed Man ―
• If pest control products are dangerous, why are pest control products allowed on our GOLF COURSES ?
• If pest control products are dangerous, why is the Government of Manitoba allowing us to put them on our FOOD ?
• PROHIBITION WILL DAMAGE the Professional Lawn Care Industry since so-called Green Alternative Pesticides are BOGUS and yield results that are INEFFECTIVE.
• The Government of Manitoba is PUSHING PROHIBITION WITHOUT ANY JUSTIFICATION.

Pesticide Ban’s Foes Get Louder
Opposition Against Prohibition
OPPOSITION to the Government of Manitoba’s plan to PROHIBIT against pest control products appears to be MOUNTING, led by groups, like Canadian Association Of Agri-Retailers and Weed Man, that claim THE GOVERNMENT OF MANITOBA HAS SNUBBED SCIENCE IN FAVOUR OF A FEEL-GOOD POLITICAL HIT.
They also say Anti-Pesticide Minister Gord Mackintosh’s proposed PROHIBITION has caused NEEDLESS CONFUSION for customers of the Professional Lawn Care Industry.
Manitoba’s proposed PROHIBITION appears to be based more on PRESSURE from Anti-Pesticide Terrorist-Organizations than REASON.
On March 22nd, 3013, Anti-Pesticide Minister Mackintosh said Manitoba is simply following the lead of other provinces, and that any PROHIBITION will be phased in over a one- to two-year period, and will be accompanied by a public education campaign on so-called safer GREEN ALTERNATIVE PESTICIDES that, in fact, ARE INFERIOR AND DO NOT WORK.

Canadian Association Of Agri-Retailers ( CAAR )
CAAR is the only trade association dedicated to providing benefits and services to agri-retailers across Canada.
CAAR was founded with the goal of speaking as the voice for the agri-retailer on the political stage, whether local, provincial or federal.
CAAR questions how much public support there actually is for PROHIBITION.
According to CAAR spokesman Draper Houston ―
We’re encouraging everybody to think about it from a scientific perspective rather than an emotional response.
The scientific evidence backing up the bans just isn’t there.
The pesticides that are in question go through rigorous testing from Health Canada and we want to make sure that that’s part of the decision, which it doesn’t seem to be right now.

Anti-Pesticide Polls Are NOT TO BE TRUSTED
Ontario’s Lunatic-Vermin have been let out of their cages to DESTROY Manitoba's Professional Lawn Care Industry with BOGUS and MISLEADING Anti-Pesticide Polls.
In February 2013, an Anti-Pesticide Poll ALLEGED 71 per cent of Manitobans supported PROHIBITION. [ WRONG ! ]
The ONLY people who want PROHIBITION in Manitoba are a SMALL GROUP of activists with VESTED INTERESTS IN CONCOCTING IMAGINARY DANGER against pest control products, such as Ontario’s Canadian Association Of Physicians For The Environment ( CAPE ) and Manitoba’s Green Action Centre, both known Anti-Pesticide and Environmental-Terrorist Organizations that are PAID TO PROMOTE PROHIBITION.
Anti-Pesticide Polls are NOT TO BE TRUSTED since they are HOPELESSLY BIASED AGAINST PEST CONTROL PRODUCTS.

Canadian Cancer Society
The Government of Manitoba prefers to somehow rely upon Non-Expert Anti-Pesticide Lunatics for so-called EXPERTISE on health and pest control products.
According to Anti-Pesticide Minister Mackintosh, so-called HEALTH EXPERTS, such as the Canadian Cancer Society, say government should focus most on reducing exposure to pesticides where these products are needed least.
In fact, Canadian Cancer Society has NO CREDIBLE EXPERTISE on health and pest control products.
It is a mere FUND-RAISING, PROFIT-SEEKING, and LOBBYING organization, and it is NOT a science, research, or health organization.
Health Canada, and NOT Canadian Cancer Society, has THE ESSENTIAL EXPERTISE on the subject of pest control products.
Moreover, Canadian Cancer Society has OFFICIALLY AND PUBLICLY STATED REPEATEDLY that scientific research DOES NOT PROVIDE A CONCLUSIVE LINK between pest control products and cancer.

In direct contradiction to a mere handful of Anti-Pesticide Activists, on February 27th, 2013, a newspaper poll in Winnipeg Free Press showed that 60 PER CENT WERE OPPOSED TO PROHIBITION.
Another newspaper poll reported on September 25th, 2012, showed that A MAJORITY OF MANITOBANS DO NOT WANT PROHIBITION.
Moreover, in Fall 2012, Professional Lawn Care businesses and clients sent to Manitoba Government Officials the results of a PETITION with 2,500 POST-CARDS OPPOSING THE BAN.

On February 20th, 2013, British Columbia took into account over 8,000 comments from a public consultation as well as recommendations from its bi-partisan Special Committee On Cosmetic Pesticides, and decided to AVOID PROHIBITION against Professional Lawn Care businesses.
Even in Ontario, the public REJECTS PROHIBITION, where MORE THAN HALF of Ontario residents believe that the provincial government DID NOT DO THE RIGHT THING by IMPOSING its 2009 PROVINCIAL PROHIBITION.

PROHIBITION Will DESTROY Businesses, And Will IGNORE More Important Sources Of Exposure
Professional Lawn Care businesses like Weed Man KNOW that PROHIBITION in Manitoba will DESTROY their operations, just like in other jurisdictions ( see later segments ).
Sharra Hinton, Co-Owner of Weed Man, said A PESTICIDE BAN WILL DAMAGE THE INDUSTRY, since so-called Green Alternative Pesticides are BOGUS and yield results that are INEFFECTIVE.
Dave Hinton, another Co-Owner of Weed Man, said if the province was truly interested in protecting Manitobans from MORE IMPORTANT SOURCES OF EXPOSURE to chemicals, it would also address what people add to their hot tubs and swimming pools or use to preserve their wood decks.
Hinton said Health Canada reported in 2008 that ONLY 1.6 PER CENT of non-agriculture pest control products were used on turfgrass.
Hinton said pest control products used in Canada for non-agriculture purposes are …
… for water treatment in swimming pools and in wood preservatives.
That’s where most of it is being used.
If these [ pest control ] products are dangerous, why is the government allowing us to put them on our FOOD ?
Why are they allowed on our GOLF COURSES ?
They are pushing this [ PROHIBITION ] through WITHOUT ANY JUSTIFICATION.
They never specify which pesticides are bad.
They just say all pesticides, but we [ Weed Man ] hardly use any.
Weed Man is a Professional Lawn Care business that became a HOUSEHOLD NAME ACROSS NORTH AMERICA.
The COMBINED Weed Man franchises number OVER 330.

Agri-Retailers
March 23rd, 2013
Winnipeg Free Press
Selected And Adapted Excerpts
――――――――――――――――――――
Letter To Minister Mackintosh From Canadian Association Of Agri-Retailers
Introduction ― Three Questions
To : Conservation And Water Stewardship Minister Gord Mackintosh
From : Canadian Association Of Agri-Retailers
Dear Minister,
A large coalition of Manitoba citizens, organizations and businesses are deeply concerned with both your comments to the Winnipeg Free Press on February 27th, 2013, and your seeming determination to implement an Ontario-style pesticide ban across Manitoba.
We believe that before you go down this road, you owe Manitobans much more open dialogue and information than you have provided to date.
We have THREE QUESTIONS to which we believe Manitobans deserve answers :
――――――――――――――――――――
Letter To Minister Mackintosh From Canadian Association Of Agri-Retailers
Question Number 1. ― Providing New Scientific Studies
On February 27th, 2013, you told the Winnipeg Free Press that ―
Just in the last few months, we’re seeing red flags from the science community on the health impacts, in particularly affecting children. [ WRONG ! ]
We are not aware of any new peer-reviewed science on this subject.
Just What Are The New Studies
To Which You Refer ?
――――――――――――――――――――
Letter To Minister Mackintosh From Canadian Association Of Agri-Retailers
Question Number 2. ― Providing Studies To Health Canada
Canadians have the ability to request that Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency conduct a Special Review on any product currently approved for use in Canada if issues are identified.
Have You Provided The Data Referenced
Above To Health Canada, And
Requested Such A Review On Any Pesticide ?
If So, What Were The Results ?
If Not, Why Have You Not Done So,
Given Your Stated Concerns ?
――――――――――――――――――――
Letter To Minister Mackintosh From Canadian Association Of Agri-Retailers
Question Number 3 ― Validating Anti-Pesticide Poll
On February 27th, 2013, in the Winnipeg Free Press, you spoke with approval [ i.e. validation ] of a poll of fewer than 500 Manitobans, conducted by an environmental activist group, and inferred that this was justification for moving forward on a pesticide ban.
Does Your Government Regard
Polls Of This Nature As Being
Appropriate Proxies For Developing
Safety Policy For Manitobans, Or
Should Peer-Reviewed Science
Be The Deciding Factor ?
――――――――――――――――――――
Letter To Minister Mackintosh From Canadian Association Of Agri-Retailers
Conclusion
We believe that these questions need to be answered before, not after, your government introduces legislation.
The preservation of green space in Manitoba on both public and private lands deserves at least that much consideration.
Yours sincerely,
Don Pincock, Interim President & CEO,
Canadian Association Of Agri-Retailers

Green Alternative Pesticides Are INFERIOR
False Reassurances About Green Alternative Pesticides
Manitoba’s Anti-Pesticide Political Leaders, like Gord Macintosh, ATTEMPT TO FALSELY REASSURE EVERYONE that so-called safe and effective Green Alternative Pesticides were/are already available to replace conventional pest control products. [ WRONG ! ]
According to Gord Mackintosh, Manitoba’s Anti-Pesticide Conservation and Water Stewardship Minister concerning so-called GREEN ALTERNATIVE PESTICIDES ―
There is a blossoming market of what is called bio-pesticides. [ ?!?! ]
Clearly, the market is changing very rapidly.
It is no longer a choice between conventional pesticides and a dandelion. [ WRONG ! ]
We know that there are alternatives. [ WRONG ! ]
――――――――――――――――――――
Green Alternative Pesticides Are INFERIOR
Green Alternative Pesticides Are DISMAL FAILURES
Despite claims to the contrary, overall, there are NO viable, efficacious, economical, or low-risk alternatives to replace conventional pest control products.
It is WRONGLY ASSUMED THAT ALTERNATIVES are somehow safer and work as well as conventional products.
Since 2009, in the Province of Ontario, home-owners and professionals have been FORCED TO RELY UPON INFERIOR GREEN ALTERNATIVE PESTICIDES because of the ARBITRARY PROVINCIAL PROHIBITION against conventional pest control products.
There is little debate about the fact that Ontario’s 2009 PROVINCIAL PROHIBITION is a DISMAL FAILURE, and converted communities into SHABBIER AND DANGEROUS PEST-INFESTED GARBAGE DUMPS.
It was/is IMPOSSIBLE to control DAMAGING PESTS OF TURF AND ORNAMENTALS without conventional pest control products.
By definition, ALTERNATIVES ARE INFERIOR, which is why they did not win the market-place originally.
Alternative products are usually LESS TESTED as well, raising the prospect that they are NOT ANY SAFER OR BETTER THAN conventional products, and are, in fact, DISMAL FAILURES.
So-called alternatives, such as Corn Gluten Meal, Fiesta, Flame-Throwers, Nematodes, and Sarritor, are DISMAL FAILURES.
Green Alternative Pesticides are INEFFECTIVE, INADEQUATE, HIGH-RISK, INEFFECTIVE, MORE TOXIC, STUNNINGLY EXPENSIVE, and OVERWHELMINGLY CONDEMNED !
It is IMPOSSIBLE for home-owners or professionals to keep their properties beautiful and safe by using Green Alternatives.
There are NO viable, efficacious, economical, or low-risk alternatives to replace conventional pest control products.
A well-maintained lawn and landscape can ONLY BE ACHIEVED with conventional pest control products.

Fighting Against
Anti-Pesticide Government
In Manitoba
The Government of Manitoba is INFESTED WITH ANTI-PESTICIDE ACTIVISTS.
Manitoba’s Anti-Pesticide Government Officials will, beyond any doubt, attempt to IMPOSE PROHIBITION against pest control products used in the Urban Landscape.
Who wants this #@!!% BAN NONSENSE ?!?!
Polls indicate the PUBLIC DOES NOT WANT PESTICIDE BANS.
According to polls and petitions in Manitoba, the PUBLIC REJECTS PROHIBITION.
A MAJORITY OF MANITOBANS DO NOT WANT PROHIBITION.
The government will have to pry their weed-killers out of their cold, dead hands.
Moreover, if/when PROHIBITION is IMPOSED in Manitoba, THE PUBLIC WILL LOSE ITS VALUED RESIDENTIAL AND PUBLIC GREEN SPACES.
Without pesticides, Green Spaces will turn into DANGEROUS AND PEST INFESTED GARBAGE DUMPS.
If/when PROHIBITION is IMPOSED in Manitoba, HAZARDOUS SLIPPING AND TRIPPING CONDITIONS in sports turf will THREATEN CHILDREN with serious injuries.
Furthermore, other provinces in Western Canada will NOT PROHIBIT pest control products.
For example, in 2011, the Government of Alberta STOPPED THE TREND towards NEEDLESS, SENSELESS, and MALICIOUS PROHIBITION.
And in early 2013, British Columbia decided to AVOID PROHIBITION against Professional Lawn Care businesses.
In fact, there is a REAL TREND AGAINST PESTICIDE BANS throughout North America, with dozens of jurisdictions that have STOPPED or RESCINDED or LIMITED ANTI-PESTICIDE PROHIBITION, or have GRANTED BUSINESSES AN EXCEPTION STATUS.
Until October 1st, 2012, Manitoba ran a MOCK ON-LINE CONSULTATION DONE IN BAD FAITH under the PRETENSE of gauging citizens’ views on the PROHIBITION against pest control products used in the Urban Landscape.
PROHIBITION in Manitoba IS NOT NECESSARY since pest control products are HEALTH-CANADA-APPROVED, FEDERALLY-LEGAL, PRACTICALLY-NON-TOXIC, SCIENTIFICALLY-SAFE, and CAUSE NO HARM.
As reported through Health Canada’s VAST TOXICOLOGY DATABASE, scientific research shows that NO HARM WILL OCCUR to health and environment when pest control products are used properly.
If/when PROHIBITION is IMPOSED in Manitoba, Government Officials will have done so in DEFIANCE of Health Canada’s SCIENTIFIC ASSESSMENTS proving that pest control products are SCIENTIFICALLY-SAFE … ASSESSMENTS that can take up to TEN YEARS and COST HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS.
The Government of Manitoba WILL NOT SPEND ANY MONEY on ANY SCIENTIFIC ASSESSMENT of pest control products.
This is because NO ONE within the Government of Manitoba has ANY recognized training, background, or experience in pest control products.
The Government of Manitoba prefers to somehow rely upon Non-Expert Anti-Pesticide Lunatics, such as those operating within Canadian Cancer Society, who have been PERPETUATING NOTHING BUT MYTHS regarding the need for PROHIBITION in Manitoba.
Health Canada, and NOT Manitoba, has THE ESSENTIAL EXPERTISE on the subject of pest control products.

Lunatic-Infested Selinger Government
Wants Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITION In Manitoba
The Government of Manitoba, which is INFESTED WITH SUBVERSIVE ANTI-PESTICIDE LUNATIC-TERRORISTS, wants to PROHIBIT against pest control products used in the Urban Landscape.
Manitoba’s Government Officials will, BEYOND ANY DOUBT, ATTEMPT TO IMPOSE ANTI-PESTICIDE PROHIBITION.
The Province of Manitoba is governed by Greg Selinger and the New Democratic Party, the POLITICAL SHIELD for Anti-Pesticide and Environmental-Terrorist Organizations.
Manitoba’s Selinger government said in January 2012 it planned to restrict so-called potentially harmful over-the-counter pesticides and herbicides.
According to Anti-Pesticide Conservation Minister Mackintosh ―
The science appears to indicate that there certainly is a risk. [ WRONG ! ]
On September 24th, 2012, Mackintosh said Manitoba would IMPOSE PROHIBITION against so-called harmful cosmetic pesticides in 2013.
Moreover, Manitoba’s Government Officials, with the SUPPORT of Anti-Pesticide Organizations, WANT TO DESTROY the Professional Lawn Care Industry.

These organizations are the PRINCIPAL ARCHITECTS in the CONSPIRACY TO PROHIBIT pest control products used in the Urban Landscape.
Their ANTI-PESTICIDE ACTS OF SUBVERSION have EXTENSIVELY DAMAGED and DESTROYED the Professional Lawn Care Industry in both Ontario and British Columbia.
These Lunatic-VERMIN have been LET OUT OF THEIR CAGES to help Manitoba’s Government Officials DESTROY the Professional Lawn Care Industry.
THESE VERMIN OF ANTI-PESTICIDE TERRORISM MUST BE STOPPED !
PROHIBITION MUST BE STOPPED in Manitoba to stop it NATIONALLY !
Manitoba’s proposed PROHIBITION is Politically-Based, and NOT Science-Based, and DEFIES THE CURRENT TREND AGAINST PESTICIDE BANS.

Background Information From An Independent Perspective
There Are Real Trends AGAINST Prohibition
There is a REAL TREND AGAINST PROHIBITION, and other provinces in Western Canada WILL NOT PROHIBIT pest control products because of their Science-Based approach.
In 2011, the Government of Alberta STOPPED THE TREND TOWARDS NEEDLESS, SENSELESS, and MALICIOUS PROHIBITION.
On August 9th, 2011, the Government of Alberta stated that it WOULD NOT CREATE RESTRICTIONS OR LAWS THAT CONFLICT WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, that is relied upon for health and safety assessments of pest control products.
Consequently, the Government of Alberta indicated that is has NO INTENT TO PROHIBIT THE SALE OF ANY PEST CONTROL PRODUCT.
Alberta has monitored Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITIONS over the past few years and the approaches taken by other jurisdictions, and has found THE BASIS FOR ACTION CONFUSING AND INCONSISTENT.
More recently, British Columbia’s Special Committee On Cosmetic Pesticides announced that it WILL NOT RECOMMEND PROHIBITION against the use of pest control products in the Urban Landscape.
THERE ARE REAL TRENDS AGAINST PROHIBITION across Western Canada, where Government Officials are no longer readily jumping in favour of Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITION.
Several jurisdictions in Western Canada that have STOPPED or RESCINDED or LIMITED or OPPOSED Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITION, or granted Professional Lawn Care businesses with an EXCEPTION STATUS ―
Alberta ( Province ), Altona ( Manitoba ), Beaumont ( Alberta ), British Columbia ( Province ), Calgary ( Alberta ), Campbell River ( British Columbia ), Edmonton ( Alberta ), Kamloops ( British Columbia ), Kelowna ( British Columbia ), Merritt ( British Columbia ), Port Alberni ( British Columbia ), Portage La Prairie ( Manitoba ), Regina ( Saskatchewan ), Rossland ( British Columbia ), Salmon Arm ( British Columbia ), Steinbach ( Manitoba ), Vernon ( British Columbia ), Winkler ( Manitoba ).

Cosmetic pesticides could be banned next year on lawns and other green spaces. What’s your opinion ?
52 per cent STRONGLY RESPONDED … They’ll pry my weed-killer out of my cold, dead hands.
Furthermore, according to a poll conducted by CANADIAN CONSUMER SPECIALTY PRODUCTS ASSOCIATION, the VAST MAJORITY of residents are OPPOSED TO PROHIBITION, and they actually favour the continued use of these products around their homes and in public green spaces.

A Manitoba Pesticide Ban Will Lead To BUSINESS FAILURES
A Manitoba PROHIBITION will lead to BANKRUPTCY, UNEMPLOYMENT, DESPAIR, and DESTITUTION.
Manitoba’s Professional Lawn Care businesses FEAR that Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITION will DESTROY their operations.
With PROHIBITION, Manitoban owners of Professional Lawn Care businesses will face LOSS OF REVENUES, BUSINESS FAILURES, and BANKRUPTCY.
Employees will face LOST JOBS and UNEMPLOYMENT.
For example, Weed Man franchise owners say PROHIBITION will DAMAGE the Professional Lawn Care Industry, since so-called Green Alternative Pesticides are BOGUS and yield results that are INEFFECTIVE.
Weed Man says ― WE WILL LOSE CUSTOMERS.
According to Sharra Hinton, Owner of Weed Man ―
WE WILL LOSE CUSTOMERS.
Our customers’ No. 1 concern is not having weeds on their lawn.
They just want to fix that problem.
Weed Man franchise owners also believe some clients who wish to try Green Alternative Pesticides WON’T BE ABLE TO AFFORD THEM.
A Manitoba PROHIBITION will lead to BUSINESS FAILURES.
Sharra Hinton estimates the average lawn costs about $75 a season for traditional weed control, but $300 to $400 with so-called Green Alternative Pesticides.
A Manitoba PROHIBITION will lead to STUNNINGLY EXORBITANT COSTS.
Manitobans cannot afford this #@!!% BAN NONSENSE.

PROHIBITION Inflicted CATASTROPHIC CARNAGE In Ontario
In Ontario, PROHIBITION inflicted CARNAGE on the Professional Lawn Care Industry.
Because of the 2009 ONTARIO PROVINCIAL PROHIBITION, businesses operating in the Professional Lawn Care Industry LOST OVER 500,000,000 DOLLARS, with up to 12,500 UNEMPLOYED.
In Ontario, ONE-BUSINESS-PER-WEEK DISAPPEARS INTO TOTAL OBLIVION, and, by 2012, HALF THE BUSINESSES CLOSED THEIR DOORS.
Because of Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITION, provinces like Ontario now have a TRAIL OF ECONOMIC DESTRUCTION WITH HUNDREDS OF SMALL BUSINESSES DESTROYED and THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE OUT OF WORK, a MORE DANGEROUS OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENT, and a BLACK MARKET IN PESTICIDES.
The DEVASTATION of the Professional Lawn Care Industry was EXTENSIVE because there were NO valid economical alternatives to replace the prohibited products.
According to Jeffrey Lowes, an advocate for the Professional Lawn Care Industry in Ontario ―
The industry LOST THOUSANDS OF JOBS and many of companies in Ontario are NO LONGER IN OPERATION.
The medical reports are QUESTIONABLE and so are the so called medical professionals.
Pesticide bans just CREATE AN ARTIFICIAL MARKET FOR SUB-STANDARD PRODUCTS.

I’ll Give You My Career And My Business
When You Take It From My Cold, Dead Hands !
For the rest of our lives, anti-pesticide lunatic-terrorists are going to smear businesses operating in the Professional Lawn Care Industry.
They will slander these businesses as poison-spreading, child-killing, blood-thirsty maniacs who stand in the way of a safer society.
Will the industry remain silent ?
The industry must not remain silent !
If the industry is going to stop this, then it is vital to every law-abiding owner, employee, and family member dependent on these businesses to STRIKE BACK.
They must STRIKE BACK and defeat the divisive forces that would take away their ambitions, their assets, their businesses, their careers, their customers, their homes, their hopes, their lifestyles, their job security, their families, their children, their loved-ones, and their future.
They need to say those fighting words for everyone within the sound of their voice to hear and to heed.
They need to say those fighting words especially for the anti-pesticide terrorists …
From My Cold, Dead Hands !

DISCOVER WHAT ANTI-PESTICIDE AND ENVIRO-LUNATIC TERRORISTS ARE DOING AND SAYING ABOUT SUBVERSIVELY IMPOSING THEIR LIFE-STYLE CHOICES AGAINST OUR SOCIETY.
Force Of Nature ― The Whole Truth From An Independent Perspective.
Communities and businesses are being HARMED and DESTROYED and RAPED by PROHIBITIONS against pest control products used in the Urban Landscape, and by other ACTS OF ENVIRONMENTAL TERRORISM.
We are living in the 9|11 Era of Anti Pesticide and Environmental Terrorism where at least ONE SUBVERSIVE ACT OF TERROR is perpetrated EVERY SINGLE DAY by these terrorist.
We are living in the DARK AGE OF ANTI PESTICIDE TERRORISM where sound science is trumped by FAKE SCIENTISTS, JUNK SCIENCE and UNVERIFIABLE SECRET EVIDENCE through FABRICATION, INNUENDO, and INTERNET RUMOUR ― scientific research PROVES that pest control products CAUSE NO HARM and can be USED SAFELY.
An informed public is better able to protect itself and its communities and businesses from so-called activists who are THE LEAST QUALIFIED TO PROVIDE ANY ADVICE about pest control products or the environment.
NORAHG is the National Organization Responding Against HUJE that seek to harm and destroy the Green space industry, and the well being of our communities.
NORAHG morally represents the VAST SILENT MAJORITY of people associated with turf and ornamental plant maintenance who are OPPOSED to Anti Pesticide PROHIBITION and the CLOSURE or ABANDONMENT of green spaces under the RIDICULOUS PRETEXT of somehow « saving » the environment.
NORAHG is a NATIONAL NON PROFIT NON PARTISAN organization that does not accept money from corporations or governments or trade associations, and represents NO VESTED INTERESTS WHATSOEVER.
NORAHG is dedicated to reporting the work of RESPECTED and HIGHLY RATED EXPERTS who promote ENVIRONMENTAL REALISM and PESTICIDE TRUTHS.
NORAHG pledges to deliver comprehensive reports that are worthy of peoples’ time and of peoples’ concern, reports that might ordinarily never have breached the parapet.
NORAHG was the brainchild of William H. Gathercole and his colleagues in 1991. Mr. Gathercole is now retired, although his name continues to appear as founder.
Force Of Nature was launched by NORAHG for CONTINUOUS transmission on the Internet on January 1st, 2009 ― however, the VERY FIRST Stand-Alone FORCE OF NATURE Report was issued on September 19th, 2008.
On January 1st, 2009, Force Of Nature Reports were launched for CONTINUOUS transmission on the Internet ― however, the VERY FIRST Stand-Alone Force Of Nature Report was issued on September 19th, 2008.
On March 15th, 2010, Uncle Adolph independently launched The Pesticide Truths, an easy-to-use Web-Site that collects relevant reports of information right-off-the-press.
Pesticide Truths and Force Of Nature, in some ways, are like Google for everything concerning the SURVERSIVE ACTIVITIES of Anti-Pesticide and Enviro-Lunatic Terrorists.
