Was former New Brunswick chief medical officer of health, Dr. Eilish Cleary, on the verge of blowing the lid about Monsanto’s Roundup herbicide and its danger to humans? Or is it simply a bizarre coincidence that she was mysteriously fired from her position just weeks before she was set to unveil an official report assessing the risks associated with this pervasive weedkiller?
Many environmental groups throughout Canada are seeking answers to these important questions, as Dr. Cleary’s temporary replacement, Dr. Jennifer Russell, won’t agree to talk, and neither will her spokespeople. Dr. Cleary simply picked up where Dr. Russell left off, officials are claiming, and that’s the end of that – or is it?
In a letter to Dr. Russell, Ann Pohl of the Kent County branch of the Council of Canadians, is demanding that Dr. Cleary’s report – or at least what was completed of it before Dr. Cleary was let go – be released immediately for public review. Many fear that this is yet another instance of corporate corruption silencing the truth about the world’s most widely used herbicide, which the World Heath Organization (WHO) found to be probably carcinogenic to humans.
“We need to see that report now,” Pohl’s letter demands. “It is not clear to us if your report has been scrapped, suppressed, or something else has happened.”
An earlier letter from Dr. Cleary to Pohl from last August, when she was still in her position, elicited a positive response about a formidable action plan to be released “in the coming year.” But, before that plan could be released, Dr. Cleary was told to pack her bags and go home, with no logically defensible reason as to why.
If you question the safety of industry cash cows like glyphosate, prepare to be punished
