Canada is the world’s largest exporter of Asbestos. Asbestos is a toxic and deadly substance that leads to a horrendous death via cancer and even worse complications. The world’s largest exporter of this horrendous substance is Canada who seem to claim some rubbish higher human rights ground but have no problem in flooding the 3rd world with a toxic substance that is banned in almost all developed nations including within it’s own. It is hypocracy on an unbelievable scale and is leading to suffering and carnage on an even more insurmountable scale outside it’s borders. It’s even gone to the scale of bribing nations to prevent asbestos from being listed on a hazardous products list, it is a true and utter disgrace.
