      Dear
      Editor,
     
    
   
   
    
     
      I
      am
      writing
      to
      express
      my
      opposi-
     
     
      tion
      to
      the
      use
      of
      Bovine
      Growth
      Hormone
     
     
      (tBGH
      or
      rBST)
      in
      Canada.
      rBGH
      is
      a
     
     
      genetically
      engineered
      hormone
      which
     
     
      essentially
      causes
      cows
      to
      remain
      in
      the
     
     
      high
      production
      phase
      of
      early
      lactation
     
     
      for
      much
      longer
      than
      is
      natural.
      Among
     
     
      the
      40+
      side
      effects
      on
      cows
      are
      recurrent
     
     
      udder
      infections,
      birth
      defects,
      breeding
     
     
      problems,
      lameness,
      internal
      bleeding
      and
     
     
      premature
      death.
      An
      eightfold
      increase
      in
     
     
      the
      level
      of
      the
      insulin-like
      hormone
      IGF-1
     
     
      has
      been
      identified
      in
      rBGH-milk.
      IGF-1
     
     
      has
      been
      clearly
      linked
      to
      the
      production
      of
     
     
      cancer
      cells.
     
    

    
     
      The
      Canadian
      government’s
     
     
      current
      tactics
      of
      indecision
      and
      inaction
     
     
      are
      unacceptable
      in
      light
      of
      the
      emormous
     
     
      amount
      of
      protests
      from
      consumers,
     
     
      farmers
      and
      advocacy
      groups.

      and

      groups
      have
      in-
     
     
      formed
      the
      government
      of
      their
      opposition
     
     
      to
      the
      hormone
      and
      40%
      of
      Canadians
     
     
      surveyed
      say
      they
      are
      extremely
      worried
     
     
      about
      the
      use
      of
      rBGH.
      Farmers
      know
      that
     
     
      Canada
      already
      has
      a
      surplus
      of
      milk
      and
     
     
      that
      rBGH
      does
      not
      provide
      any
      kind
      of
     
     
      nutritional
      advantage.
      If
      approved,
      the
     
     
      nature
      of
      our
      processing
      system
      will
      not
     
     
      allow
      consumers
      access
      to
      naturally
     
     
      produced
      milk.
      rBGH
      makes
      no
      sense
      at
     
     
      all
      --
      except
      to
      its
      multi-national
      develop-
     
     
      ers.
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Governments
      are
      elected
      to
      serve
      the
     
     
      people,
      not
      to
      cave
      into
      the
      high-powered
     
     
      lobbying
      of
      such
      corporate
      giants
      as
     
     
      Nonsanto
      and
      Eli-Lilly.
      When
      our
      govern-
     
     
      ment
      does
      not
      listen
      to
      the
      concerns
      of
      its
     
     
      electorate,
      I
      believe
      Canadians
      must
      back
     
     
      their
      protests
      with
      consumer
      action.
     
     
      Consumer
      action
      was
      very
      effective
      in
      the
     
     
      fight
      for
      dolphin-free
      tuna.
      The
      same
     
     
      strategy
      can
      work
      in
      the
      fight
      against
      rBGH
     
     
      if
      Canadians
      apply
      a
      strong
      co-operative
     
     
      effort.

      am
      asking
      for
      your
      support
      to
     
     
      pressure
      the
      Canadian
      government
      to
     
     
      follow
      the
      lead
      of
      Australia
      and
      New

      A
      national
     
     
      boycott
      of
      domestic
      milk
      products
      is
      urged
     
     
      for
      the
      week
      of
      of
      Nov.
      17-23
      as
      a
      demon-
     
     
      stration
      of
      consumer
      determination
      to
      stop
     
     
      the
      hormone.
      I
      believe
      it
      wiil
      be
      rar
      easier
     
     
      to
      fight
      for
      a
      ban
      on
      rBGH
      than
      it
      would
      be
     
     
      to
      fight
      for
      its
      removal
      should
      it
      be
      ap-
     
     
      proved.
      If
      the
      government
      refuses
      to
      take
     
     
      Canadians
      seriously,
      they
      have
      only
     
     
      themselves
      to
      blame.

      Zhirinovsky--"The
      Russian
      Hitler"?
     
    
   
   
    
     
      The
      latest
      antics
      of
      this
      Russian
     
     
      politician
      remind
      us
      of
      the
      eerie
      similarity
     
     
      between
      Zhirinovsky
      and
      the
      late
      Nazi
     
     
      leader.
      Both
      men
      came
      out
      of
      obscurity.
     
     
      Both
      wrote
      of
      an
      unhappy,
      troubled
     
     
      childhood.
      Hitler
      was
      anti-Semitic,
      so
      is
     
     
      Zhirinovsky.
      Hitier
      came
      to
      power
      through
     
     
      the
      democratic
      process
      --
      barring
      a
      success-
     
     
      ful
      assassination
      attempt,
      the
      overwhelm-
     
     
      ing
      likelihood
      is
      that
      Zhirinovsky
      will
      win
     
     
      the
      December,
      1996
      Russian
      presidential
     
     
      elections.
     
    

    
     
      Indeed,
      the
      situation
      in
      Russia
      today
     
     
      is
      reminiscent
      of
      conditions
      in
      Weimar
     
     
      Germany
      prior
      to
      Hitler
      coming
      to
      power
      --
     
     
      chaos,
      disillusionment,
      and
      despair.
      These
     
     
      are
      the
      conditions
      ripe
      for
      a
      dictatorship.
     
     
      Hitler
      had
      an
      electrifing
      effect
      on
      the
     
     
      German
      people,
      unmatched
      by
      any
      other
     
    
   
   
    
     
      politician.
      The
      same
      can
      be
      said
      of
     
     
      Zhirinovsky
      among
      Russians.
      Before
      and
     
     
      after
      Hitler
      came
      to
      power,
      the
      Interna-
     
     
      tional
      Press
      ridiculed
      him
      as
      a
      clown
      and
      a
     
     
      madman.
      The
      International
      Press
      today
     
     
      tend
      to
      dismiss
      Zhirinovsky
      as
      ‘‘the
      clown
     
     
      prince’’,
      a
      ‘‘political
      jester’,
      ‘“‘buffoon’’,
     
     
      etc
      --
      much
      as
      they
      reacted
      to
      Hitler.
      This
     
     
      will
      prove
      to
      be
      a
      great
      mistake.
     
     
      Zhirinovsky
      is
      a
      man
      of
      destiny.
      His
      rise
     
     
      and
      fall
      (‘‘upon
      the
      mountains
      of
      Israel’’)
     
     
      are
      foretold
      in
      the
      Biblical
      book
      of
      Ezekiel,
     
     
      chapters
      38
      and
      39.
      He
      is
      described
      as
     
     
      ‘*Gog,
      the
      prince
      of

      Meshech,
