Hey, a few women or a few hundred or a few thousand have to die or be beset with cancer, such is life, Corporations are entitled to their profits more than women and their babies are entitled to life. You see the people at the fraser inst. and their financial supporters don't live near fracking so it doesn't matter. They are the only ones who matter, its that simple. Of course the Province is going to print the shit from the Fraser Institute, just look at who ownes Post Media, hey didn't one of those Post Media people go to work for the Fraser Institute some years ago.<br /><br />As to the fraser institute's claims of a ministry of health study from 2014, who would believe that. The B.C. Lieberals would say anything to ensure their financial supporters got their projects through. As to the "short term", the problem is all that pollution goes up in the air where people live year round. They're not like the supporters of the B.C. Lieberals, the Fraser Institute, etc. who have other places they can move to. The Koch Brothers who support the Fraser Institute live in New York city<br /><br />we do not owe these vultures our health. We know who finances the fraser institute and they are a disgusting group of people who care little for the people who have to live in fracking areas.e. a. f.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229885.post-74050197334010961712017-11-21T23:28:42.434-08:002017-11-21T23:28:42.434-08:00Here's the (no BC corp media) news link

We lived in Whitehorse in the 70's and 80's when the air pollution was worse than Tokyo in the winter due to wood smoke from poorly burning stoves. Wild fires cannot be controlled to a great extent. Wood burning appliances can and should be regulated. On the SW coast, where people burn wood when temperatures are near 10 degrees, wood smoke pollution is a real problem and needs to be addressed. The pollution can be almost eliminated, as it was in Whitehorse, if people burn responsibly. It is not much to ask. As in Whitehorse, it took legislation, regulation and enforcement to control. Breathing fresh air is not optional. It is required.

The result was an abdication of responsibility by the health and environment ministries to undertake proper independent study of the health effects of fracking.<br /><br />It is now (past) time the new government demonstrates it is captured as well; by the public interest. Time for Mr. Heyman and Mr. Dix to step up.<br />Lewnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229885.post-9908638518447229762017-11-21T08:47:59.953-08:002017-11-21T08:47:59.953-08:00"B.C.

No where in the story is the smoke effect of this past summer of fires that wiped out Vancouver's pristine view of the north shore vs our north shore view of Vancouver. No where in the story is that seniors and children were effected by all that smoke, all that fine particulate. <br /><br />7,000 stoves generated 400 tonnes of fine particulates, would anyone want to place a guess on tonnes for Vancouver, nay Metro Vancouver, nay Fraser Valley, nay .......North Van's Grumpshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17571810726275726952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229885.post-21039589515759359992017-11-21T08:08:12.715-08:002017-11-21T08:08:12.715-08:00stovepipe media. shape and manufacture consent?stovepipe media. shape and manufacture consent?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
