Canterbury Boosts Wallaby Control With $2M Funding Push
Wallaby control efforts in Canterbury have received a major boost, with Canterbury Regional Council releasing $2 million from its Pest Management Reserve.
This mutt doesn't know how else to explain the juvenile declaration by ECan of a "nitrate emergency" - a political stunt rightly decried by Federated Farmers and others.
The pointless, virtue-signalling 'declaration' reminds the Hound of the now defunct group of equally earnest teenage 'eco-worriers' School Strike 4 Climate that declared daily climate emergencies for a few months before declaring itself 'racist' and promptly cancelling itself!
ECan councilors are unlikely to have the same good grace and will keep their snouts firmly in the trough.
So good on Central Plains Water Limited for taking out a full-page ad in The Press to correct the record and outline the massive economic contribution water schemes make to the economy.
