I've posted about this a few times. I live in this province, it's been going on long before covid came to town.

I've seen a few theories. The Irvings use glyphosate for their forestry services. It kills the low lying shrubs and crap so the trees have full access to the soil. There was a university professor a few years ago that got himself in big trouble for speaking about this.

The areas where this disease has more cases IS closer to the forestry work going on all the time here. If you go back through my posts, you'll find I made an extensive one about this mid year or so. All about the Irvings and this glyphosate. The people here have been yipping for years and years about the dangerous of this stuff. But.... Irvings just keep on using it.

Another report I read said there was a certain chemical they found in all these people. Turns out that chemical is found in lobsters. If you know anything about the Maritime provinces, they love their seafood. Lobster is extremely popular and everyone here ( but me ) loves it. I don't believe there is any , real, credible proof for either argument, as they ONLY discuss it when a new case arises.

They kept this quiet for a few years as well. First cases were in 2013 I believe, but they didn't report on it until late 2019 / early 2020.

Now.. our Premier Blaine Higgs is a BIG TIME Irving shill / yes man. He worked for Irvings for years and basically does whatever they want him to. Well..... ALL the provincial gov'ts in NB do what the Irvings want as they pretty much own everything.

This points me to it's the glyphosate issue.
