Canadian Asbestos Mining
Based in the beautiful city of New York transformation states that sustainability is at the core of everything it goes. But is that really the case?
August 15th, 2011 a member of the Quebec National Assembly decided to give Indian-born Canadian businessman Baljit Singh Chadha more time to find private investors for an underground asbestos mining project in order to qualify for a $58 million gift from the Quebec government. The international consortium was to have come up with $25 million in order to qualify for this large subsidy from the Quebec government by July 1st. The deadline was extended to August 15th and now has been re-extended to the 1st of October. The Canadian Cancer Society says more than 100,000 people die worldwide every year from occupational exposure to asbestos.
