You do realize the "global warming" is classed by the conservatives in the US Congress as a "liberal" term. But then it's OK in Canada since Liberals are conservative in Canada? How does that go? Redefine it and you can do business with anyone?

It was always like pushing a boulder up hill to get the farmers in S. Ontario to add more green manure to their fields for healthier soils and better returns and (even more so in the Mid west - I heard). So, I guess this can now be used by the oil and chemical industries to tell the farmers not to do that. It will only speed up global climate change. O, wait. Aren't they some of the biggest deniers of global warming??? D.
