Authorities have now pulled more than 13,000 dead pigs out of the Huangpu river which supplies over a fifth of Shanghai’s drinking water. But as usual in Communist countries, there’s no problem at all. The People’s Daily observes cheerfully that both the number and size of dead pigs in the daily haul is now declining while an official with the Shanghai Information Office says water quality in the Huangpu river is “normal”.
Sadly, given China’s pollution problems it probably is.

Since Elizabeth May made an observation of hers at the Press Conference in Ottawa that she firmly believes that some ministers in CPC caused the world recession. And NOT NOT NOT one solitary reporter ever took her on.
I guess then that
it must be PMSH who caused the problem or the Alberta’s oilsands pollution that drove the pigs to their deaths.
China’s pollution according to Lizzy May, is far better than Canada’s. Again, no one took her up on this.
I wonder if the Chinese are running a story about how we dump millions of tonnes of raw sewage into our water resources, call it “overflow” and how the gov’t candy coats it and the public just hum and haw and figure it’s all ok.
Two different systems, same practices by those in authority.
