I can see it all now - The year 2020 - some private corporation is doing water research on the Experimental Lakes. "Turns out, after careful studies, acid rain, mercury and phosphorous are actually good for fish, freshwater and the environment. These lakes are ideal as dumping grounds for all the mining companies in the country! Yeah..that's the ticket! Bring it on!"
Harper, you are unfit to govern.
