Residents of Ontario First Nation sickened after high benzene levels detected
Description
April 18, 2024
The people of Aamjiwnaang First Nation are demanding a chemical plant, which is located right across the street from their reserve, be shut down after being repeatedly exposed to high levels of benzene, a cancer-causing chemical. As Carolyn Jarvis reports, many said the pollution left them feeling ill and anxious about the air they breathe.
