‘Tis truly amazing how these numbers magically appear. ‘Tis also amazing that anybody actually believes these clowns. They, and their ilk, are making a mockery out of science.

Is it that you don’t believe the specific numbers or that you don’t believe air pollution kills at all?

I think guessing at numbers is BS, but I don’t think there’s any question that air pollution can kill or hasten death.

I've never seen any thing that unequivocally verifies that. It's like trying to say that second hand cigarette smoke is just as or more dangerous than smoking a cigarette yourself which from a common sense point of view is bs...just like global warming...it's a hoax put on by the smoking nazis...IMHO opinion of course ;-)

Quick! Do the math! How many Canadians will die from “pollution” by the year 2042 when whitey becomes the minority in this country.

“I’ve never seen any thing that unequivocally verifies that.”

Unequivocal? Little is. But it’s just common sense that breathing in crap is not good for your health. I don’t need unequivocal health studies for that. Why do you think so many athletes are avoiding the Beijing air for as long as they can?

In the end, all 35 million Canadians will die.

As in our country, some will merely catch the early train.

So the numbers keep going up even though the air gets cleaner every day.

How many were dying back in the 60s and 70s I wonder? Maybe there really is nobody in Canada. They’re all dead.

Probably because they are overreacting...that’s why!

I’ll believe that when they provide a list of names and copies of the death certificates.
