Snip ”Speakers at a major science meeting being held in Canada said communication of vital research on health and environment issues is being suppressed. Prof Thomas Pedersen, a senior scientist at the University of Victoria, ……..more info…………… Andrew Weaver, an environmental scientist at the University of Victoria in British Columbia, described the protocol as "Orwellian". Professor Weaver said that information is so tightly controlled that the public is "left in the dark". "The only information they are given is that which the government wants, which will then allow a supporting of a particular agenda," he said.” end snip
The scientists and interviewers have to get written permission to speak to anyone about the scientists work from a Government Official (oh, and this isn't national security stuff.. most of it is environmental) ..
then they have to provide the questions that will be asked, to the Government representative for inspection.. it takes days to hear back and
if the Government Representative perceives a there is a problem with any questions, they have to scratch that question from the interview… OMG….
So much for announcing a Break through in a timely fasion!
If the Government official is still a bit apprehensive about the interview he/she will sit in on the interview in order to ensure only info our current government wants revealed is talked about.
I thought we had free speech in this country… it would seem not!
Many Studies are apparently not being made public, because our current government doesn’t want us to know what the scientific community has found out! Like actual facts about climate change... diseased salmon .. and more.
The Government officials only want us to know about things that they are willing to support or include in the government adgenda, the rest is blocked from being announced!
