>The study by Cinthia Scott Dupris was on canola not corn.  The issue in
Ontario is corn, corn, more corn, and some soybeans.

Completely understood!  No one is doubting the problem with planting dust
in corn.  So long as the Ontario beekeepers stick to that issue, I have no
problem.

The problem is that a group of activists is trying to extrapolate that
neonics are causing serious problems to colony health other than the
specific case of planting dust.  The findings on colony health following
chronic exposure, which is likely most intense on canola, would then apply.
