Sylvain Charlebois

I don't know who Nosfer ariel65 is, but edits are misguided. Charlebois was the instigator of Buttergate, and the story went viral because of his work. The story came out days before the Calgary CBC person wrote her column. He wrote a tweet, months before hers. Multiple sources, completely overlooked by Nosfer ariels65 suggest s/he aimed to eliminate his work. Some sources: [1]https://financialpost.com/commodities/agriculture/buttergate-the-canadian-dairy-controversy-that-swept-the-world-podcast [2]https://www.npr.org/2021/02/24/971018428/baffled-canadians-spread-reports-of-hard-butter [3]https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-56175784 [4]https://www.intelligencer.ca/news/buttergate-controversy-causing-a-stir-among-alberta-dairy-producers/wcm/8cf8db6f-77cd-4195-bc5e-6306bc2b2fe4/amp/
