Take Action - Help us Ban Asbestos
Dear Friends,
Over 25 of Canada’s foremost health, environment and labour organizations have signed a statement urging Parliamentarians to ban Canadian asbestos, supporting a call brought to Ottawa by three Grade 10 students from Smithers, British Columbia. Chloe Staiger, Hayley McDermid and Claire Hinchliffe wrote a bill to end Canada’s mining and export of asbestos to developing countries. Their Member of Parliament, Nathan Cullen, is presenting the bill in the House of Commons today, June 1, 2009.
