Is it just me? Is it just in Ottawa? Is it just in Canada? Or is this a worldwide conspiracy on behalf of the governments to take such a lacksadaisial attitude towards safety in the workplace? The crap that continually goes on, day after day, is sickening. When are these public officials going to get off their duffs and enforce the laws, not only once there has been an incident, but as a preventitive measure?

And secondly, on-line training, CD Rom courses, and train the trainers (in-house training) should all be banned and outlawed. The people training others are purchasing agents, supervisors, or anyone with an IQ over 40, who doesn't have the time, or inclination, to have the staff trained properly, or efffectively. I have yet to meet an in-house trainer who knows what, and how to teach others. And these idiotic computer based programs, which do not encompass, or address, the facility in question, should all be burnt in ****.

My rant!
