Honey bees are dying at alarming rates in every country where they are raised." - Clinton Ekdah Support the “Day of the Honey Bee” by signing the petition set up by Clinton E: http://www.thepetitionsite.com/1/Canada-for-Day-of-the-Honey-Bee Excerpts from the petition: You should be made aware that the Honey Bee has been known by mankind since at least 6000 B.C. as evidenced by rock paintings in Spain found in 1924.
