Canadian scientists still muzzled by Conservatives

http://ca.news.yahoo.com/blogs/canada-politics/harper-government-muzzlers-still-discouraging-scientists-speaking-reporters-221230239.html

According to an article by PostMedia News, Environment Canada officials have confirmed that there are in fact contaminants accumulating in the precipitation near oil sands operations.

While that is pretty significant news, the more concerning piece of information in the article was that, once again, federal scientists were kept from publicly sharing research information.

Shameful actions from our Evironment Minister Peter Kent and Prime Minister Harper in not protecting the environment and the people of Alberta. It is criminal that this information is being kept from other governments and the people.

The question is.... "will this become Canada's Love Canal" ??? Will we, the taxpayer become libel for potential ailments that could ravage those who come in contact with contaminants over prolong periods of time?
