The January 14, 2011 statement of support by the Quebec Lung Specialists Association for not re-opening the Jeffery Mine continues to show the callous disregard for human life by those parties intent on re-opening the Jeffery Mine which would allow continued proliferation of asbestos throughout the world. “We must not repeat the errors of the past and transport our former evils to countries which do not have the means or resources to protect themselves against asbestos, ”said the president, Dr. Alain Beaupré.
Sincerely,
Dr. Richard A. Lemen, Assistant U.S. Surgeon General Retired and GBAN Charter Member
