Dear Premier Charest:As scientists from 28 countries, dedicated to protecting public health, we appeal to you to respect the overwhelmingly consistent body of scientific evidence and the considered judgment of the World Health Organization (WHO) that all forms of asbestos have been shown to be deadly and that safe use of any form of asbestos has proven impossible anywhere in the world.We appeal to you to act honorably and to listen to Quebec's own public health experts,prominent health experts across Canada, as well as the Canadian Medical Association, the Quebec Cancer Society, and the World Health Organization (WHO) , who have all called for the use and export of asbestos to end.
