Companies should need very clear measures for approval of mass use of chemicals. This is disgusting.

Way to much power in the hands of this company. Stop now! Please act as our elected officials and represent the voice of the people you work for. As a cancer survivor who grew up in Pictou, exposed to the toxic outpour from the pulp mill, and a resident who lives in Truro and spends considerable time in beautiful Victoria park and our hikes on our amazing trails in NS I want to be assured I and all others are not exposed to this substance. Not to mention mother earth! Please stop this now!

Don't subject the people and environment to this spraying. It is irresponsible to continue using chemicals that are highly likely to increase the cancer occurrence even more than it is already. I am appalled by our governments lack of understanding of consequences of turning a blind eye to the activities of corporations

I am an expert in weed science and have consulted with both the provinces of Alberta and British Columbia as well as private forest companies. Glyphosate is a broad spectrum silvicide that harms many species that come into contact as well as indirectly through species changes, soIL an water chemistry an health effects. It should be banned from forest practices.

Only when the last river is poisoned will our government realize we can't drink money.

We have enough health issues in Nova Scotia and many of us dont have doctors to help us address them. We don't NEED this spray (it's just for business...not to kill a cause of human disease). Find something that is non toxic.

I can't believe that Northern Pulp has the audacity to propose aerial spraying. When do citizen rights matter. I thought we were done with poisonous activity which will impact the health on many. It must not be allowed to go a head.
