The role of pesticides as a major factor and prime cause in the downward trajectory of our children’s health has been known for decades. There are innumerable studies that have documented how pesticides work and why they are so dangerous for our children. Yet, agribusinesses and government officials ignore both the well-vetted scientific and clinical information available and continue to promote the application of pesticide usage despite these alarming negative trends in our children’s health globally.

Over the past two years, a citizen-led and independently funded initiative was established, The National Citizens Inquiry, to amplify the voices of ordinary Canadian citizens and document their experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic. Operating outside of government influence, this initiative sought to understand the events that unfolded and develop recommendations to ensure that future crises are managed with minimal harm to the public.
The inquiry was structured by dedicated volunteers, featuring two main branches: An Administrative team to oversee operations and a panel of Commissioners responsible for conducting the inquiries and producing detailed reports.
