Chemicals Evaluated By Pest Management Regulatory Agency Of Health Canada
Health Canada regulates pest control products in Canada.
Pest control products are regulated by Health Canada’s Pest Management Regulatory Agency ( PMRA ), which requires THOROUGH SCIENTIFIC REVIEWS AND SAFETY ASSESSMENTS to ensure they meet strict health and environmental standards and are shown to have value.
In Canada, pest control products are one of THE MOST STRINGENTLY REGULATED PRODUCTS.
Health Canada employs 350 expert-scientists whose job is to assess pest control products.
These expert-scientists include ― biologists, chemists, entomologists, epidemiologists, plant pathologists, toxicologists, and weed scientists.
These expert-scientists help ensure that only pest control products that meet the strict health and environmental standards outlined by the Pest Management Regulatory Agency are registered for use or sale in Canada.
According to Dr. Lorne Hepworth, President of CropLife Canada ― http://wp.me/P1jq40-2eG
The process to have a pesticide registered in Canada can take an average of nearly 10 years and costs over 256 million dollars.
That’s a big investment, so the manufacturers ensure the products they submit for registration are safe and work the way they are intended to.
The PMRA assessments not only ensure that these products work, they also make sure they will not affect species that are not the intended target.
The PMRA also keeps track of any research on the products from international organizations, and each product must be re-evaluated at least every 15 years to ensure its continued safety.
Health Canada and PMRA have THE ESSENTIAL EXPERTISE on pest control products.
On March 31st, 2013, Health Canada published a RE-EVALUATION SUMMARY TABLE which provides a summary of the proposed and/or final decisions made with respect to RE-EVALUATION OF ACTIVE INGREDIENTS.
The simple fact of being LISTED in this table DOES NOT IMPLY THAT THE PEST CONTROL PRODUCT POSES A SIGNIFICANT HAZARD to the public from use.
Health Canada considered all of the information in a WEIGHT-OF-THE-EVIDENCE APPROACH.
However, chemicals have been REMOVED or PROPOSED FOR REMOVAL by Health Canada.
Additionally, almost ONE-THIRD OF ALL PRODUCTS REMOVED WERE USED EXCLUSIVELY IN THE GOLF INDUSTRY, including Arrest-75W, ProTurf FF II, ProTurf Granular Fungicide V, ProTurf Granular Insecticide 1, Quintozene 75 Per Cent, Terraneb SP, and Tersan 1991.
And almost HALF OF ALL PRODUCTS REMOVED were REMOVED VOLUNTARILY by the registrant, or were NOT SUPPORTED for further re-evaluation ( i.e. the cost to keep the product in the market-place was not profitable for the registrant a.k.a. manufacturer ).
The next segment contains selected and adapted excerpts from the RE-EVALUATION SUMMARY TABLE concerning PEST CONTROL PRODUCTS USED IN THE URBAN LANDSCAPE, which include those products used by the Golf Industry, the Professional Lawn Care Industry, and the Ornamental Plant Maintenance Industry.

Discover What Anti-Pesticide And Enviro-Lunatic Terrorists Are Doing And Saying About Subversively Imposing Their Life-Style Choices Against Our Society
Read … 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 RUMOR ― 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 SUBVERSIVE ACTIVITIES of Anti-Pesticide and Enviro-Lunatic Terrorists.
