  2. TRUTH serving the citizens One day, a frog was swimming peacefully in a pot full of cold water where it was placed by a researcher wishing to demonstrate how to kill it gently and without its knowledge.

  3. TRUTH serving the citizens • “You will see. If we can increase the temperature slowly, the frog won’t even notice it!” The researcher turned on the burner to the lowest setting and the water in the pot started to warm up slowly. You will see. If we increase the temperature slowly, the frog won’t even notice it…

  4. The frog finds this quite agreeable and continues to swim . The water is soon lukewarm. TRUTH serving the citizens

  5. TRUTH serving the citizens The researcher increases the heatby a notch.The temperature continues to rise.

  6. TRUTH serving the citizens The researcher increases the heat another notch.The water is now hot.It’s a bit too much for the frog,it tires him a bit, but the frog isn’t worried.

  7. TRUTH serving the citizens The frog’s apathy encourages the researcherto increase the heat another notch….The water is now really hot.The frog is now finding this uncomfortable,but since it grew weaker,it tolerates the situation and does nothing.

  8. TRUTH serving the citizens The researcher continues to increase the heat: one last notch.The temperature continues to increase until the frog dies and is cooked.

  9. TRUTH serving the citizens If the frog had been plunged directlyinto 50° C water,it would have leaped out of the pot immediately.

  10. TRUTH serving the citizens This experiment demonstrates thatwhile change is taking place very slowly,it escapes the mind and most of the time doesn’t bring on any reaction, any opposition, any revolt. This is exactly what the Canadian Government, represented byTransport Canada and Aéroports de Montréal (ADM) have understoodandthis is exactly the strategy they have adopted.ADM gradually and secretly brings on changesto the original plans of Montreal-Trudeau and Mirabel airports,increasing constantly and without any consultation,the assault to health, safety, quality of lifeand value of real estateof hundreds of thousands of citizensresiding under the soundscape at Trudeau airport.

  11. TRUTH serving the citizens While observing what has been happening on the airport file since 1971,one could state that the citizens of the Montreal areaare slowly suffering in a way they are becoming accustomed to.A visit to the website of the Citizens for a Quality of Life Citoyens pour uneQualité de Vie (CQV)www.c-q-v.orgwill allow you to understand the significance of this ploy.If the citizens, the elected municipal and provincial politicians, the business world and the media had known 40 years ago what they know today,they would have moved the sea and the earth to oppose this.To avoid the grumble, Transport Canada and its accomplices at ADMhave little by little downplayed the effects of their decisionsby announcing them little by little and carefully avoiding any consultation.The next page is very eloquent on this subject.

  12. TRUTH serving the citizens The Canadian Government thanks to its mercenaries, behaved with the Montreal area like the researcher did with the frog, by introducing slowly and surreptitiously, a notch at a time, the measures which would make Mirabel airport disappear:

  22. TRUTH serving the citizens The citizens aren’t cooked yet like the frog.It is urgent that a strong awareness be spread aroundand that an independent impact assessment and apublic consultation take place without delay, which ADM has always refused to do so far.This would be the salutary leapbefore the number of aircraft movements tripleabove the heads of powerless citizens.

  23. TRUTH serving the citizens The analogy of the frog that reveals the disastrous consequence of the unconscious mind was inspired by the book published in 2005 by the Swiss-French writer and philosopher, Olivier Clerc. Many of the illustrations come from the same book. • La grenouille qui ne savait pas qu'elle était cuite ... et autres leçons de vie Olivier Clerc Éditions JC Lattès Parution Novembre 2005 • 216 pages, 10€ http://www.olivierclerc.com/dossiers
