Today I fulfilled a dream! I baked my own healthy, whole-wheat,
multi-seed bread with no artificial ingredients, lard or chemicals! WOW! I baked
it in an electric oven not one that uses natural gas and that destroys the environment.
Hmmm… maybe I shouldn’t have used an electric oven after all.
I just learned that in Alberta, close to 80% of electricity is generated from
coal. Talking climate change! Hmmm… they say that all those foods grown on the
land are in fact nothing but energy converted into proteins! It takes natural
gas to make fertilizer; the farmer used up precious water to irrigate the land;
he used oil to run his tractors and combines.
Oops, I hope they used wind or water to grind the flour
because otherwise I caused unending damage to the environment, to my children,
to future generations and to society in general. L
I hope the farmer didn’t use genetically modified grains
bought from some nasty, capitalist chemicals company. Come to think of it, the
harm I have done baking my own bread!
The union representatives are knocking on my door, I have
robbed the livelihood from one of its members, a poor, disadvantaged immigrant
from Nigeria! There are former wheat board members protesting in my back yard;
apparently I supported the Harper Government and undermined the poor
disadvantaged Canadian Farmer. Well, those farmers that demanded protection
from foreign competition, not the farmers who wanted to do
their own marketing.
You know, I feel so bad about all this. I don’t to deserve
to live. I feel like jumping of a bridge, but the fire department’s unions
inform me that I will affect their workload and their family life! The damage
to the bridge and pavement place an enormous burden on the capital budget of my
hometown and society in general.
I wish I had never been born… well thanks 'you know who' that
at least I live in a free democratic society where the government protects me every
day by scanning my private e-mails. Well so much for baking my own bread!
