absolutely trivial reasons: i.e. ... research Okay, you have totally lost me here. I can see why it might be worthwhile to get people out of Nunavut (you can also make such an argument on economic or environmental grounds), but research? Seriously? It's one thing to call for strict regulation to make sure animals aren't harmed unnecessarily, or that the research is for worthwhile ends (e.g. medical treatment rather than shampoo testing). But on what grounds could you claim research is 'absolutely trivial,' when it has the potential to avert far greater suffering than it causes?
