LETTER TO THE EDITOR ― MEDIA RELEASE
RESPONSE TO SANELA BEGIC ( CANADIAN CANCER SOCIETY )
THE REGINA LEADER-POST
REGINA, SASKATCHEWAN
Mock Assessment
According to Sanela Begic of Canadian Cancer Society ―
Our call for a [ pesticide ] ban is based on OUR CAREFUL REVIEW [ ?!?! ] of the scientific evidence and OUR ASSESSMENT [ ?!?! ] of the risks and benefits of the cosmetic use of pesticides.
What REVIEW ?!?!
What ASSESSMENT ?!?!
Canadian Cancer Society is NOT a health, science, or research organization.
Canadian Cancer Society is a mere FUND-RAISING ORGANIZATION.
Was Begic’s REVIEW and ASSESSMENT based upon her vast scientific knowledge of pest control products ?!?! [ No ! ]
Did Begic REVIEW and ASSESS these products after spending time and money carefully studying their effects on health and environment ?!?! [ No ! ]
Is Begic, who is a MERE FUND-RAISER for an Anti-Pesticide Organization, COMPETENT to give ANY advice concerning these issues ?!?! [ No ! ]
In fact, Begic is WRONG and CANNOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY.
Not surprisingly, NO ONE at Canadian Cancer Society, including Begic, has ANY recognized background, training, or experience in matters concerning pest control products, making their opinions FLAWED, DISTORTED, VALUELESS and WORTHLESS.
Moreover, Canadian Cancer Society has NOT SPENT A SINGLE PENNY to REVIEW and ASSESS pest control products.
Begic and her buddies DID NOT conduct a serious REVIEW and ASSESSMENT … evidently because they are NOT COMPETENT OR MOTIVATED to do so.
Neither Begic, nor anyone else at Canadian Cancer Society, COULD EVEN BE BOTHERED to have used the EXTENSIVE TOXICOLOGY DATABASE that is available from Health Canada.
Begic and her buddies are not only SCIENTIFICALLY IGNORANT, but also LAZY and OBTUSE.
Health Canada’s EXTENSIVE TOXICOLOGY DATABASE CLEARLY PROVES that pest control products are SCIENTIFICALLY SAFE since they have been scrutinized and approved by the HUNDREDS of expert scientists at Health Canada !
Health Canada requires each new pest control product to go through about TWO-HUNDRED SEPARATE TESTS to examine health and environmental impacts as well as value, and costing about 250 MILLION DOLLARS.
Consequently, when pest control products are used properly, there are NO harmful irreversible effects to health and the environment ― they are SCIENTIFICALLY SAFE and CAUSE NO HARM.
Canadian Cancer Society is WASTING ITS MONEY AND RESOURCES because pest control products are, in fact, HEALTH-CANADA-APPROVED, FEDERALLY-LEGAL, SCIENTIFICALLY-SAFE, and PRACTICALLY-NON-TOXIC.
For some SELF-SERVING REASON, Canadian Cancer Society has SPENT OVER 2,500,000 DOLLARS on SUBVERSIVE Anti-Pesticide CONSPIRACIES.
ALLEGATIONS from Sanela Begic about the IMAGINARY DANGER of pest control products are TOTALLY FALSE, and are UNTRUE MIS-REPRESENTATIONS designed to alarm and enrage the public and enhance the BUSINESS, CASH-FLOW and PROFIT of Canadian Cancer Society.
Pesticides DO NOT Cause Cancer
Begic has NO SCIENTIFIC PROOF that pest control products cause cancer.
There is NOT ONE KNOWN ILLNESS or DEATH from the proper use of pest control products used in the Urban Landscape.
There is NO direct link between pest control products and cancer.
Pest control products CAUSE NO HARM, including chronic effects such as CANCER.
THE MYTH OF CANCER ( Web-Page )
THE MYTHS ABOUT ANTI-PESTICIDE PROHIBITION ( Web-Page )
Even Begic’s organization, Canadian Cancer Society, states on several of its web-sites that scientific research DOES NOT PROVIDE A CONCLUSIVE LINK between pest control products and cancer.
CANADIAN CANCER SOCIETY – NO DIRECT PROOF PESTICIDES CAUSE CANCER ( Web-Page )
On April 11th, 2012, and again on August 4th, 2012, Begic herself admitted that the evidence linking pest control products and cancer is NOT DEFINITIVE.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR — 2012 04 11 — BEGIC ( CCS ) — PESTICIDES DO NOT CAUSE CANCER — REGINA, SASK — RESPONSE
What is her problem ?!?!?!
Why is Begic and Canadian Cancer Society WASTING EVERYBODY’S TIME on the issue of pest control products ?
Health Canada, and NOT Canadian Cancer Society, has THE ESSENTIAL EXPERTISE on the subject of pest control products.
Canadian Cancer Society is RIDICULOUSLY IMPLYING that its NON-EXPERT ASSESSMENT is somehow being withheld from Health Canada and EVERY other regulatory agency in the world.
Canadian Cancer Society is a FUND-RAISING, PROFIT-SEEKING, and LOBBYING organization, and NOT a science, research, or health organization.

Agriculture Is NEXT
According to Sanela Begic ―
It’s important to clear that we are not talking about pesticides used in AGRICULTURE to grow food. [ ?!?! ]
Begic is WRONG !
Both PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE INDUSTRY and AGRICULTURE INDUSTRY use the VERY SAME ingredients for the control of pests.
If it is safe to eat pesticide-treated food, then it is safe to play on pesticide-treated lawn.
Canadian Cancer Society is a PRINCIPAL ARCHITECT in the CONSPIRACY TO PROHIBIT against pest control products used in the Urban Landscape.
Its ANTI-PESTICIDE TERRORIST ACTS OF SUBVERSION have ANNIHILATED the Professional Lawn Care Industry.
CARNAGE CAUSED BY CATASTROPHIC ANTI-PESTICIDE PROHIBITION ( Web-Page )
Moreover, Canadian Cancer Society has every intention of ANNIHILATING THE AGRICULTURE INDUSTRY NEXT.
On June 12th, 2012, during a City Council Meeting in Kamloops, British Columbia, observers could not believe the comments uttered by another FUND-RAISER from Canadian Cancer Society.
Observers were in shock and could not believe what they were hearing.
Canadian Cancer Society is pushing for a BAN on ALL PESTICIDES, not just against the Professional Lawn Care Industry, but also against the AGRICULTURE INDUSTRY as well.
Now that the Professional Lawn Care Industry has been ANNIHILATED …
… AGRICULTURE IS NEXT !

Trend AGAINST Pesticide Bans
According to Begic ―
No municipality has revoked their by-law [ WRONG ! ] and many large communities have found that using pesticide alternatives is not more expensive than using pesticides [ WRONG ! ].
Begic’s statements are FALSE !
In fact, Government Officials are now INCLINED TO AVOID Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITION for the following reasons ―
● Ban Failures ―
Because of Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITIONS, green alternative pesticides and practices have been shown to be DISMAL FAILURES.

● Children Suffering Injuries ―
Because of Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITIONS, children are AT HIGH RISK of TRIPPING and becoming SERIOUSLY HURT.

● Garbage Dump Green Spaces ―
Because of Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITIONS, public and residential green spaces turn into GARBAGE DUMPS.

● Stunningly Exorbitant Costs ―
Because of Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITIONS, municipalities were/are forced to spend STUNNINGLY EXORBITANT amounts of money.
There are examples where Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITION led to municipalities being forced to spend STUNNINGLY EXORBITANT amounts of money ● Coquitlam ( British Columbia ) ● Cornwall ( Ontario ) ● Delta ( Ladner, British Columbia ) ● Hamilton ( Ontario ) ● Kelowna ( British Columbia ) ● Kingston ( Ontario ) ● Langley ( British Columbia ) ● Lawrence ( Kansas ) ● Lincoln City ( Oregon ) ● London ( Ontario ) ● Mississauga ( Ontario ) ● Oshawa ( Ontario ) ● Portland ( Oregon ) ● Revelstoke ( British Columbia ) ● Richmond ( British Columbia ) ● Sudbury ( Ontario ) ● Surrey ( British Columbia ) ● Vernon ( Coldstream, British Columbia ).

● Trend AGAINST Pesticide Bans ―
Government Officials realize that PROHIBITION is NOT necessary because STRICT REGULATIONS based on scientific research already PROTECT our health and our environment.
There are examples of a REAL TREND AGAINST Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITION ● Alberta ( Province ) ● Ashland ( Oregon ) ● Beaumont ( Alberta ) ● British Columbia ( Province ) ● Calgary ( Alberta ) ● Campbell River ( British Columbia ) ● Chicago ( Illinois ) ● Edmonton ( Alberta ) ● Everett ( Washington ) ● Guelph ( Ontario ) ● Guelph-Eramosa ( Ontario ) ● Kamloops ( British Columbia ) ● Kelowna ( British Columbia ) ● Merritt ( British Columbia ) ● Portage La Prairie ( Manitoba ) ● Quebec ( Province ) ● Regina ( Saskatchewan ) ● Rossland ( British Columbia ) ● Salmon Arm ( British Columbia ) ● Scarborough ( Maine ) ● Steinbach ( Manitoba ) ● Vernon ( British Columbia ).
VICTORIES AGAINST TERRORISTS ! – TREND TOWARDS PESTICIDE BANS HAS STOPPED ( Web-Page )
Public Support ?!?!
The public DOES NOT WANT PESTICIDE BANS.
The ONLY people who want Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITION in provinces like British Columbia are a SMALL GROUP of activists like Begic with VESTED INTERESTS defended by the IMAGINARY DANGER of pest control products.
In BRITISH COLUMBIA, the public DOES NOT WANT PESTICIDE BANS.
A recent POLL conducted by Canadian Consumer Specialty Products Association ( CCSPA ) showed that the VAST MAJORITY of residents in British Columbia are OPPOSED to the PROHIBITION of conventional pest control products, and they actually FAVOUR the continued use of these products around their homes and in public green spaces.

In ONTARIO, the public DOES NOT WANT PESTICIDE BANS.
According to another recent Ontario poll, MORE THAN HALF of Ontario residents believe that the provincial government DID NOT DO THE RIGHT THING by implementing Anti-Pesticide PROHIBITION.
Ontario residents WOULD RATHER HAVE THE BAN SCRAPPED OR MODIFIED.

The public DOES NOT WANT PESTICIDE BANS.
