Construction companies were forced to perform abatement before renovations or demolition. There is no doubt that there are very sick people with asbestosis and mesothelioma who were exposed to asbestos.

| The hospitals in Cornwall are in sad shape due to the cutbacks by a useless provincial government, and late last year he was sent home a couple of times after complaining of shortness of breath. Finally, in January of this year, he was brought to Ottawa, Ontario where they discovered his left lung was full of fluid. They operated and said they recognized mesothelioma instantly and removed the plurum around the left lung (I think, I am not all that familiar with the procedure). The doctor said he had the cancer for one to two years. |
