- greMy letter to the editor submitted to many local and national newspapers, re: Environmental Devastation Act: Canadians don't accept the "Terms and Conditions" of the budget implementation act. The conservative government is using this omnibus bill to sneak provisions past Canadians that they would never accept hoping that they will never read the terms and conditions. In fact, the bill includes provisions that have nothing to do with the budget but will gut some of our most cherished environmental checks and balances. These repeals will only profit the wealthiest corporations and individuals in Canada, while socializing the long-term potential environmental costs to everyday Canadian families. Sneaking these provisions in is just like an insurance company placing "pre-existing conditions" into an unreadably long insurance policy document that customers never read, hoping to get out of paying claims when the customer has an incident. In the event of an environmental disaster, it will be taxpayers footing the bill. These provisions should be taken out of the budget bill and debated on their own merit instead of trying to sneak them by taxpayers. Thank you.

- greRead my comment on Wente's article on ethical meat. She seems to think tha only lab meat will work. Here's what I said: Actually there's a very easy solution that I've tried myself. Eat less meat. We don't need meat at every meal, or even every day. I have a good quality steak or chicken once every week or two, depending on where we go out for dinner. I cook vegetable based meals at home during the week. I've seen my cholesterol come down, my blood pressure come down, and my weight come down. I'm in better health now than I have been since high school. I still get all the nutrients I need, and I actually see my steak as a treat and not as a daily requirement. I've reduced my meat consumption by about 90%, and I used to be a confirmed carnivore. If we all consumed less meat from better sources, we could have a significant impact on the environment, as well as reducing the cost of our healthcare system which is overwhelmed by those suffering from obesity, diabetes, and cancer, all of which has been linked to the over-consumption of meat http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/opinions/margaret-wente/is-eating-meat-ever-ethical/article2411576/Apr 24, 2012 4:11 pm | Ontario, Pickering--Scarborough East
