Scientists appeal to Quebec Premier Charest to stop exporting asbestos to the developing world
In light of the above disturbing facts, we appeal to you, as you are about to leave on a trade mission to India, to show the integrity and honor that the world expects of Quebec. We ask that you listen to the overwhelming evidence put forward by independent health experts, including your own Quebec health experts, and not succumb to the political lobbying of the asbestos industry. We call on you, as well as the leaders of the other Quebec political parties, to end Quebec’s export of asbestos, to stop funding the Chrysotile Institute, to support the listing of chrysotile asbestos under the UN Rotterdam Convention, to assist the last 340 asbestos miners and their community with economic diversification, and to address the asbestos disease epidemic in Quebec. We thank you for giving our request your consideration and look forward with hope and anticipation to receiving your response.
