So much for honest government...

Nothing spectacularly new here for those who pay attention to such things; just a lot of depressing, scary facts gathered into one tidy bundle providing further evidence that the current American government is run by people who lack a basic understanding of scientific principles and are thus unable to differentiate between those things that should be based on science and those that should be based on faith. (Of course, some of us would argue that nothing should be ever taken on faith--or at the very least that faith has no place in government--but that's a different entry.)

Of course, I don't doubt that reports out of Health Canada and other local agencies are filtered for ideological purposes, or to cave to pressure groups, it just doesn't seem to have reached the same extent here yet (of our media are just too darned nice to report it).

I really hope it's the former.
