Equiterre et la Fondation David Suzuki, repr\u00e9sent\u00e9s par les avocats de l&rsquo;organisation Ecojustice Canada, ont d\u2019ailleurs intention d\u2019intervenir \u00e0 titre d\u2019ami de la cour (amicus curiae) devant le panel de l\u2019ALENA qui sera constitu\u00e9 \u00e0 cette fin. <BR\/>Le Code de gestion des pesticides du Qu\u00e9bec interdit depuis 2003 la vente et l\u2019usage de plusieurs pesticides et herbicides sur les surfaces gazonn\u00e9es afin de prot\u00e9ger la sant\u00e9 humaine et particuli\u00e8rement celle des enfants. Dow AgroSciences, fabricant am\u00e9ricain du puissant herbicide 2,4-D, a port\u00e9 plainte en ao\u00fbt dernier contre le Canada pour obtenir un d\u00e9dommagement puisque la vente de ce produit est dor\u00e9navant interdite au Qu\u00e9bec. Selon la compagnie, cette interdiction viole les clauses du chapitre 11 de l\u2019ALENA sur la protection des investisseurs. <BR\/>\u00ab Le Code de gestion des pesticides du Qu\u00e9bec a \u00e9t\u00e9 cr\u00e9\u00e9 pour prot\u00e9ger la sant\u00e9 des Qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois et leur environnement. Pour nous, il est absolument inconcevable de mettre en p\u00e9ril les r\u00e9glementations mises en place par le Qu\u00e9bec pour favoriser des int\u00e9r\u00eats commerciaux\u00a0 \u00bb, explique Edith Smeesters, porte-parole d\u2019\u00c9quiterre pour les dossiers des alternatives aux pesticides et de l\u2019horticulture \u00e9cologique. \u00ab Comptez sur nous pour prot\u00e9ger et bonifier le Code de gestion des pesticides et les acquis du Qu\u00e9bec en la mati\u00e8re \u00bb, ajoute-t-elle.<BR\/>\u00c9quiterre peut compter sur l\u2019appui de plusieurs organisations dont l\u2019Association pour la sant\u00e9 environnementale, les hypersensibilit\u00e9s et les allergies du Qu\u00e9bec (AEHAQ), le CRE de Montr\u00e9al, le CRE de la Mont\u00e9r\u00e9gie, le CRE de Laval, ENJEU, Greenpeace, Nature-Action Qu\u00e9bec, le Regroupement national des CRE du Qu\u00e9bec (RNCREQ), Nature-Qu\u00e9bec, Vivre en ville, l\u2019AQLPA ainsi que l\u2019entreprise RONA. D\u2019autres organisations sont d\u2019ailleurs invit\u00e9es \u00e0 appuyer ces d\u00e9marches.<BR\/>Plusieurs pays dont la Norv\u00e8ge, le Danemark et la Su\u00e8de ont d\u00e9j\u00e0 banni l\u2019utilisation de ce pesticide puisqu\u2019il est soup\u00e7onn\u00e9 d\u2019\u00eatre canc\u00e9rig\u00e8ne et de provoquer plusieurs d\u00e9r\u00e8glements notamment des syst\u00e8mes reproducteur ou immunitaire. \u00ab Plusieurs chercheurs et organisations, dont l\u2019Institut national de la sant\u00e9 publique du Qu\u00e9bec, ont d\u00e9clar\u00e9 qu\u2019il y avait assez d\u2019\u00e9l\u00e9ments justifiant la nocivit\u00e9 de ce pesticide pour la sant\u00e9 humaine, l\u00e9gitimant ainsi la prudence face \u00e0 ce produit . Pour nous, le principe de pr\u00e9caution doit primer d\u2019autant plus qu\u2019il existe une foule d\u2019alternatives saines et \u00e9cologiques pour remplacer les pesticides utilis\u00e9s \u00e0 des fins esth\u00e9tiques \u00bb, conclut Madame Smeesters. <BR\/>L\u2019Ontario a \u00e9t\u00e9 inspir\u00e9e par le Qu\u00e9bec puisque la province a instaur\u00e9 une loi en 2008 interdisant les pesticides \u00e0 des fins esth\u00e9tiques. D\u2019ailleurs, une r\u00e9glementation bannissant notamment l\u2019usage du 2,4-D devrait \u00eatre mise en place d\u00e8s la semaine prochaine. <BR\/>\u00c9quiterre invite les citoyens \u00e0 faire parvenir une lettre au ministre, \u00e0 partir de son site web, lui demandant de d\u00e9fendre les r\u00e9glementations du Qu\u00e9bec en mati\u00e8re de pesticides.<BR\/>Source :<BR\/>Eveline Trudel-Fug\u00e8re<BR\/>\u00c9quiterre<BR\/>514-522-2000 #303<BR\/>514-605-2000<BR\/>INSPQ, 2006 : Profil toxicologique du 2,4-D et risques \u00e0 la sant\u00e9 associ\u00e9s \u00e0 l\u2019utilisation de l\u2019herbicide en milieu urbain.\u00a0 <A href=\"http:\/\/www.inspq.qc.ca\/pdf\/publications\/509-ProfilToxicologique_2,4-D_Avis.pdf \">http:\/\/www.inspq.qc.ca\/pdf\/publications\/509-ProfilToxicologique_2,4-D_Avis.pdf <\/A><BR\/><BR type=\"_moz\"\/><P\/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Plus de quarante organisations, dont la Ville de Montr\u00e9al, font front commun pour le d\u00e9fendre<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev.totemweb.design\/macommunaute\/communiques\/u8822-le-code-de-gestion-des-pesticides-du-quebec-menace\/\">read more<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","thematiques":[],"regions":[],"class_list":["post-211257","communiques","type-communiques","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v19.6 -
