An op-ed from the January 8, 2011 edition of the Montreal Gazette.
Premier Jean Charest and the asbestos lobby have had to come up with some new arguments to defend Quebec’s export of asbestos.
Their usual arguments -that Quebec’s chrysotile asbestos is less harmful than other forms of asbestos and can be safely used -have been exposed as groundless by provincial, national and international medical authorities, who are appalled by Charest and Prime Minister Stephen Harper denying the science and putting politics ahead of human life.
