Canadian poisonings
Yet another country apparently facing bee poisoning from contamination at maize seed sowing time. How come the problems in Europe and more recently in the US *don't* induce the regulators and the companies to act before this happens?
It is inconceiveable that the companies involved didn't know about the earlier problems in Europe. From the testimony given it is plain that the Canadian farmers are still using air seeders that blow their exhaust skywards rather than down onto or into the soil as is required in Europe.

This from Allen Dick on Bee-L:

I finally finished listening to this and all I can say is this:
"Wow! Be sure to listen if you are on the fence about corn and neonics -- or even if your mind is already made up."
