Concerned Residents of
Winnipeg
and Manitoba |
The foggers are at it again! Need haven from nightly nerve toxin distribution?
Here's a preliminary video clip produced for a local malathion documentary.
***
Every year we have to
BUFFER
UP!
Send
your buffer application to Insect Control Branch, or on the
bugline
website you can register, read fogging
updates and public
notices.
Buffer
registration
forms are also at libraries, in the Leisure
Guide and in the telephone book.
There's
always hope this will be the year they will smarten up but if not,
CBC
tells you how to protect
yourself in the fog.
They also tell us Winnipeg did not keep its promise of ecological insect control.
Public pressure does affect policy decisions. Let your views be known:
Tell Winnipeg's entomologist Children are outside at 9:30 pm! 986-3210
Canada's PMRA registers these poisons. E-mail exposure
symptoms to them.
West Nile virus fogging is ludicrous!
Toxic malathion compromises immune systems.
Contact Manitoba's Chief Medical Officer of Health, Joel Kettner (204) 788-6666
and the Minister of Health, Honourable Teresa Oswald (204) 945-3731
Then call
Winnipeg City
Hall:
986-2171. Tell them:
STOP
POISONING US with neurotoxic, immunotoxic, genotoxic
poisons like malathion
and dursban
which breakdown
and
become more toxic
AND MAY PERMANENTLY ALTER THE
DEVELOPING BRAIN OF A HUMAN FOETUS.
And adopt a real pesticide
by-law
because neighbours
shouldn't
poison us either.
