Nova Scotia ( pronounced / novsko/;Latin for New Scotland; Scottish Gaelic:Alba Nuadh; French: Nouvellecosse ) is aCanadian province located on Canadassoutheastern coast. It is the mostpopulousprovince in Atlantic Canada. Its capital,Halifax, is a major economic centre of theregion. Nova Scotia is the secondsmallestprovince in Canada with an area of 55,284square kilometres ( 21,300 square miles ).

Its population of 939,531 makes it the fourthleastpopulous provinceof the country, though secondmostdensely populated.

Nova Scotia's economy is traditionally largely resourcebased, but hasdiversified since the middle of the 20 th Century.

Industries such as fishing, mining, forestry and agriculture remain veryimportant and have been joined by tourism, technology, film, music,and finance.

According to the 2001 Canadian census, the largest ethnic group inNova Scotia is Scottish ( 29.3% ), followed by English ( 28.1% ), Irish( 19.9% ), French ( 16.7% ), German ( 10.0% ), Dutch ( 3.9% ), FirstNations ( 3.2% ), Welsh ( 1.4% ), Italian ( 1.3% ), and Acadian( 1.2% ). Peoples of European descent thus make up approximately96.8% of the total population. Almost half of all respondents ( 47.4% )identified their ethnicity as Canadian .

PROPOSED

NONESSENTIAL PESTICIDES BAN

OPEN TO COMMENT

January 7 th, 2010

Government of Nova Scotia

Media Release

Nova Scotians will have an opportunity to comment on aPROPOSEDBAN on the use and sale of nonessential lawn care pesticides.

A public consultation will help government better understand opinions, concerns andissues arising from the nonessential use ofpesticides for residential, public and com-mercial lawn maintenance. Comments willbe considered before decisions are made onchanges to laws or regulations.

The province is committed to fostering ahealthier, more sustainable environmentand is looking for ways to reduce nonessential pesticide use, said EnvironmentMinisterSterling Bell iveau.


4/20

This proposal is consistent with the municipalities request, andwe look forward to hearing Nova Scotians comments on it.

Health Canada has said it is good practice

to reduce or eliminate unnecessary expo-sure to pesticides, and Canadians shouldminimize exposure to pesticides.

Health Canada s Pest Management Regulatory Agency approveswhich pesticides may be sold or used in Canada. The provincialDepartment of Environment currently regulates how commercialand restricted pesticides may be sold, used, stored, disposed of, andtransported.

The provincial consultation will address the use and sale of pesti-cides for nonessential lawn care, not uses such as pest control toprotect public health, maintain commercial golf courses, or agricul-tural and forestry application.

Comments will also be accepted by phone at 18883200555.

The deadline for comment is March 7, 2010.

[ Chris Benjamin is an EnviroManiacActivist whowrites on behalf of Pesticide Free Nova Scotia, which isa club with a mere four dozen individuals that conspireto ANNIHILATE the entire Modern Green Space Indus-try with the NEEDLESS, SENSELESS, and MALICIOUSprohibitionist policies leading to LOSS OF REVENUES,BUSINESS FAILURES, BANKRUPTCY, and UNEMPLOY-MENT, inflicting TERROR, DESPAIR, and DESTITUTIONon THOUSANDS of hapless victims throughout theGreen Space Industry. Benjamin has absolutely NOrecognized expertise, training or background in mat-

On the issue of cosmetic ( lawn and garden ) pesticides, Nova Sco-tia has officially gone from leader to last.


9/20

Ontario and Quebec have banned the sale and use of these prod-ucts. New Brunswick has announced legislation that it hopes willreduce pesticide use significantly. Prince Edward Island has prom-ised a pesticide ban by next year. At one time, Halifax was thelargest city in Canada to ban pesticides. Now we are the laggards

of our region.

The new government[ of Nova Scotia ] has promised to change therules, allowing any municipality the right to ban the use of pesti-cides. This is welcome news for towns like Wolfvil le and Stellarton, where residents harmed by pesticides have convinced their towncouncils that a pesticide bylaw is needed.

What manyNova Scotians may not know is that pesticide bans are

a great way to create the green jobs our politicians keep promising. The lawn care industry is booming wherever cosmetic pesticideshave been banned. [ Wrong ! ]

In Halifax, since the enactment of the cosmetic pesticide bylaw, thenumber of landscaping companies has increased bymore than 50per cent, [ Wrong ! ] as has the number of employees per firm.Most of this growth is sparked by organic landscapers filling theniche for pesticidefree yard work created by the ban. [ Wrong ! ]

Banning landscape pesticides is an easy way to create green jobs,save on health care costs, save lives and protect the environment.[ Wrong ! ] We can only hope that our new government decides tokeep up with the rest of the Maritimes, and ban the sale and use oflawn pesticides outright.

Guehas absolutely NO recognized expertise, trainingor background in matters concerning pest controlproducts ! Consequently, her opinions on this

subject are VALUELESS and WORTHLESS. ]

Quebec adopted regulations in 2003 to ban the use and sale ofmany lawn pesticides.


11/20

A few months ago, a new ban came into effect in Ontario [ in2009 ]. Prince Edward Island has promised to follow suit, andNew Brunswick is considering i t [ This province eventually legis-lated a prohibit ion ].

Halifax was ahead of the curve when the cityadopted a bylaw prohibiting pesticide use onlawns and gardens and in parks back in 2001.

But provincial parties were curiously silent onthe issue during the recent election campaign.

Whats stopping Nova Scotia politicians from weeding out toxic lawn chemicals provincewide ?

The chemical industry will repeat the mantra that pesticides aresafe, but not even the federal agency in charge of licensing theirproducts uses that language.

Background Information from an Independent Perspective Overall, the ideathat pest control products are causing irreversible health and environmentalproblems is little more than NONSENSE. Conventional pest control products areSCIENTIFICALLY SAFE ! Overall, when they are used properly, there are NOharmful irreversible effects to health and the environment !

Its worth noting, as well, that at least 50 active ingredients regis-tered for use in pesticides in Canada have been banned in otherWestern countries due to health or environmental concerns.

[ Big Deal ! ]


12/20

For instance, the popular lawn herbicide 2,4D is banned in Den-mark and Norway, and was voluntarily withdrawn from the marketin Sweden. [ See later segment for background information. ]

What do the Scandinavians know that we dont ?

In fact, we know a lot.

A scientific literature review published by the Ontario College ofFamily Physicians points to consistent links to serious illnesses,such as cancer, reproductive problems and neurological diseasesassociated with chronic pesticide exposure. [ Wrong ! ]

The study also shows that children are particularly vulnerable

and theyre the ones rolling around on the grass on hot summerdays. [ Alarmist fearmongering using children as weapons of mass destruction ! ]

Background Information from an Independent Perspective

EnviroManiacHealthCareWorkers have made cosmetic pesticides a public health issue for their own twisted and nefarious reasons.

FACT : EnviroManiacHealthCareWorkers routinely SCAM the public withthe CONCOCTION of FRAUDULENT LIES and NONEXISTENT DANGERS. Theydeceive the public blurting out HOLLOW and DESPICABLYALARMIST expressions

like cancer and serious illness and reproductive problems and neu-rological diseases !

This is clearly evident in a literature review that is a DISGRACEFULLY FALSE andMISLEADING report concocted by ONTARIO COLLEGE OF FAMILY PHYSICIANS( O.C.F.P. ) and financed by LAIDLAW FOUNDATION, an organization that sup-ports EnvironmentalTerror against the Green Space Industry.


13/20

ENVIRODECEPTION : One doctor, who was listed as having peerreviewedthe report, was not aware that her name was on the report until it was published,and then denied she had reviewed the report.

FACT : The O.C.F.P. report has absolutely NO CREDIBILITY in the legitimatescientific community.

FACT : The O.C.F.P. report has been INTERNATIONALLY DISCREDITED.

WARNING : The O.C.F.P. report is merely a deceptive ENVIROMANIACJUNKSCIENCE document that consisted of simply a CHERRYPICKING of someof the most recklessly negative reports regarding pest control products.

WARNING : The BOGUSOCFPJUNK SCIENCE document consists mostly ofresearch that DOES NOT EVEN COMPLY with the same research standards as thePest Control Product Industry. This industry must comply with VERY PRECISEand DEMANDING STANDARDS when it comes to undertaking the scientific re-search required by government regulatory agencies. Scientific data submitted toHEALTH CANADA and other federal regulators must be done by GOOD LABORA-TORY PRACTICE ( GLP ) qualified laboratories.

FACT : ONTARIO COLLEGE OF FAMILY PHYSICIANS ( O.C.F.P. ) DOES NOThave ANY qualified laboratories for testing pest control products. In fact, it hasNO laboratories whatsoever.

FACT : NOT A SINGLE PERSON at ONTARIO COLLEGE OF FAMILY PHYSI-CIANS ( O.C.F.P. ) has ANY recognized expertise, training or background in mat-ters concerning pest control products ! Most of these people are mere EnviroManiacHealthCareWorkers, and NOT scientists or researchers !

FACT : There are NO EnviroManiacHealthCareWorkers at O.C.F.P. whoare scientists or researchers with credentials in the field of pest control products.

Moreover, David Suzuki Foundation research found more than6,000 cases of acute pesticide poisoning in Canada in one year,nearly half involving children under the age of six.

2,4D PROHIBITED BY OTHER NATIONS

2,4D is not approved for lawns and gardens in Denmark, Kuwait,Norway, and Sweden. 2,4D use is severely restricted in Belize, but it is approved in the European Union ( E.U. ), of which bothSweden and Denmark are members.

Of course, the EnvironmentalTerrorMovement wishes to give the false impres-

sion that things are so much better in Be-lize, Denmark, Kuwait, Norway, andSweden. Indeed, 2,4D is used exten-sively on golf courses and other immacu-latelymaintained green spaces that areresplendent throughout the wartorn Ku-wait region. (See photo.)

EnviroManiacActivists avoid to mention

the fact that the issue of2,4D being pro-hibited by other nations has already beensufficiently addressed by the Canadianfederal government. As usual, these UN-PRINCIPLED and UNEDUCATED maniacsprefer to resort to FEARMONGERING,


15/20

FRAUDULENT LIES, MISCONCEPTIONS, COERCION, THREATS,DECEPTIONS, TERROR, and PARANOID CONSPIRACIES aboutpest control products.

NOT ONE EnviroManiacActivist has ANY recognized expertise,training, or background in matters concerning pest control prod-ucts. Overall, maniac opinions on pest control products are VAL-UELESS and WORTHLESS.

In 2005, the respected Pest Management Regulatory Agency ofHealth Canada ( P.M.R.A. ) responded to the issue of nation prohi-bition with following statement


16/20

It is important to recognize that of the many studies pub-lished, some report associations between adverse health effects and 2,4D exposure, while many others report a lack ofassociation. As most of these papers acknowledge, epidemiol-ogy studies on their own are difficult to interpret because bi-

ases and confounding factors often preclude any convincing linkbetween specific pesticide exposures and effects. For example,influences from other chemicals and the physical environmentencountered at the same time as pesticide exposures and recallbias from the individuals examined are two factors that canstrongly influence the study result. Without an actual expo-sure calculation, it is difficult to assess whether pesticidescould have been responsible for an adverse health outcome.This is why the PMRA also relies on the more scientifically ex-act method of quantitatively estimating risk by comparing ex-posures to the results of toxicity studies in laboratory animals.The proprietary studies used are conducted to internationallyaccepted standards and include toxicity studies done on a num-ber of laboratory animal species for comparative purposes, aswell as studies of exposure from all routes and methods of exposure. Safety factors (typically 100 to 1000 fold) are builtinto the assessment to account for different sensitivities be-tween humans and experimental animals and among humans(age, gender and individual sensitivities to pesticides). In

general, this is the same approach that is currently utilized bythe various international pesticide regulatory authorities in-cluding the US EPA and other OECD countries. >>

FORCE OF NATURE was launched for continuous transmission on the Internet on January 1st, 2009. It is a se-ries of enewsletters destined for the Green Space Industry, the EnvironmentalTerrorMovement, Govern-ment Officials, and the Media, nationwide across Canada, the United States, and overseas.

Force Of Nature is the brainchild of William H. Gathercole and his entourage. Norah G is actually an acronymfor the stable of anonymous producers and writers that contribute to this enewsletter and have now replacedMr. Gathercole. They consist of people from the following industries : Distribution, Fertilizer, Golf, Lawn Care,Manufacturing, Municipal, Nursery, and Orchard. Many of these people are leaders in their own industries.The opinions expressed in Force Of Nature, even though from an INDEPENDENT PERSPECTIVE, may not re-

flect those of everyone in the GREEN SPACE INDUSTRY, or Mr. Gathercoles many associates. Be warned !Force Of Nature may sometimes be very irreverent and fearless with these enewsletters. Mr. Gathercole isnow retired from Force Of Nature, although his name continues to appear as the founder.

William H. Gathercole is a principal FOUNDER of the Modern Professional Lawn Care Industry in BOTH Ontarioand Quebec. He holds a degree in Horticulture from the UNIVERSITY OF GUELPH, and another pure and ap-plied science degree from McGILL UNIVERSITY. He has worked in virtually all aspects of the GREEN SPACEINDUSTRY, including GOLF and PROFESSIONAL LAWN CARE, and has served in public affairs, workplacesafety, and environmental compliance. Mr. Gathercole has supervised, consulted, programmed, and/or over-seen the execution of HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of pest control applications in the urban landscape. He hastrained, instructed, and consulted with THOUSANDS of turf managers and technicians. Mr. Gathercole hasalso been an agricultural agronomist. For many years, Mr. Gathercole was a contributing columnist for TURF &Recreation Magazine, Canadas Turf and Grounds Maintenance Authority.

Mr. Gathercole has followed the evolution of ENVIRONMENTALTERRORISM for over a quartercentury. Hisinvolvement in Environmental issues reached a fevered pitch in the 1990s, when he orchestrated, with his col-leagues, legal action against the prohibition of pest control products in the Town of Hudson, Quebec. For FIF-TEEN YEARS, the strategies designed and implemented by Mr. Gathercole and his colleagues guaranteed thecontrol of EnviroTerror for the entire Modern Green Space Industry across Canada. Mr. Gathercole is person-ally credited for crafting the Golf Industry Exception Status, that endures to this day. He is also the creator ofthe signs that are now used for posting after application. Although he can be accused of being AntiEnvironmentMovement, he is, in fact, simply a strong advocate FOR the Modern Green Space Industry.However, this position has not precluded him from criticizing the Green Space Industry itself. Nonetheless, hisvast knowledge of our long journey with Environmental issues is UNDENIABLE. ( Hopefully ! )

Force Of Nature is the instrument of National Organization Responding Against Huje that harm the GreenSpace Industry ( NORAHG ) by concocting statements and activities seeking to prohibit FEDERALLY LEGAL,SCIENTIFICALLY SAFE, TOTALLY IRREPLACEABLE, and ABSOLUTELY INDISPENSABLE conventional pest con-trol products. EnviroManiacs are identified on the basis of their statements, activities, affiliations, and where-abouts. Even though each EnviroManiacCulprit is a misguided adversary, each still deserves our respect.The terms Maniac, Culprit, Terrorist, or Basterd are not accusations of any legal wrongdoing. Force Of Natureis simply holding Alleged culprits accountable for conspiring to change public policies that TERRORIZE andTHREATEN the Green Space Industry. Their pretentious prohibitionist rants has created LOSS OF REVENUES,BUSINESS FAILURES, BANKRUPTCY, and UNEMPLOYMENT, inflicting DESPAIR and DESTITUTION for THOU-SANDS of hapless victims throughout the Green Space Industry. The DEPRAVED INDIFFERENCE of ManiacCulpritTerroristBasterds is viewed as a form of TERROR against the GREEN SPACE INDUSTRY. The informa-tion presented in Force Of Nature has been developed for the education and entertainment of the reader byproviding a sequence of historical events with commentary.
