Hello all=2C
=20
Happy World Environment Day! Although the Canadian government seems to hav=
e forgotten it and the Canadian Environment Week that was based around it=
=2C this is the 40th one and it is still celebrated around the world=2C at =
least in countries that do not consider environmentalists as the enemy. He=
re is a link for more information.

It is difficult to celebrate this in Canada with our environmental protecti=
on laws under attack by the Harper oleocracy=2C but it is a reminder for an=
y who care about the future to at least let your MP know that you are not h=
appy about the destruction of the Environmental Impact Assessment process a=
nd the weakening of endangered species and aquatic and marine habitat prote=
ction. There must be some Conservatives who understand what they are doing =
and who care more about the survival of living things than blindly followin=
g a political leader who shows such contempt for Parliament=2C science=2C a=
nd democracy. Don't forget the Senators=2C who are less under the control =
of the P.M.
I had better stop here before I get my knuckles rapped for bringing politic=
s into this list. Let me assure any concerned that I would be just as crit=
ical of any other party or leader who tried to undo the progress of the pas=
t 40 years of environmental legislation. There are=2C of course=2C improve=
ments that could be made to these laws and the EIA process=2C but the way t=
he government is hiding its changes in a budget bill shows that they do not=
want public debate or informed comment to improve the laws.
