It is unnecessary to educate us on the dangers of asbestos, as we have been aware of its harmful effects for many years. “Asbestos causes cancer; it is a lethal carcinogen.” Consuming water from a leaking asbestos cement water pipe is dangerous. Regardless of how asbestos is ingested, exposure is hazardous. Further studies on the negative effects of asbestos on human health and the environment are not required. What is required is an accurate assessment of the state that asbestos pipes are in currently and an acknowledgment of the health hazards they pose to the people of Saskatchewan.
