Why must we have these chemicals around? We must end this senseless culture of having poisons around the home. 10X as many children die in accidental poisoning than from handguns. When will we eliminate this senseless slaughter of our children? The chemical companies are murdering our children.



A second child has died in a case of accidental poisoning in Fort McMurray.

Several media reports confirm a two-year-old toddler died after he was inadvertently exposed to phosphide gas that was released from pesticide pellets meant to kill bed bugs.

His death was announced at Thurday's funeral for his eight-month-old sister, who died in hospital Monday from the same poisoning incident, reports Global News.
