    First off that article says nothing about MS increased rates anywhere. But also, it talks about something that happened from July 9, 1953 to Aug 1, 1953. It’s one instance of testing a chemical for the cold war that was for trying to determine how Nuclear Fallout would spread in the area. Also, worst of all, you said there was an increased rate of MS in Saskatchewan but then posted an article that talks about something that happened in Winnipeg, which last I checked, was in Manitoba not Saskatchewan.

      Maybe cause that’s not exactly why I posted the article. There’s a whole lot more to dig into, from reputable sources, I was just pointing you in the general direction with an article from a national paper. And not only 1953. They’ve been trying to figure out that geographic MS thing for years. You have enough info now to look into it yourself. (Medicine Hat is also mentioned too, it’s like you skimmed that article)

              Gee. I wonder why I can’t be bothered to recall everything i’ve read on the subject over the years, track it all down, and serve up a bunch of neatly listed links for people bitching i don’t

                Probably the same reason why I can’t be arsed to “look up” every deranged conspiracy I see on the Internet.

                  There ya go again, comparing it to that after verified proof was posted, at least to one aspect. You all already showed me you’ll immediately misrepresent what you’re shown to assuage your prior held beliefs.
