CBC News report on toxic garbage dump burning in Quebec town

I have been asked to take a stand on the mega-dump issue and let my viewpoint be known to all. Here is my reply...

Municipality of Alleyn and Cawood

5 year master Plan Summary

Researchers at Texas A&M University compared leachate from several municipal landfills with leachate from the notorious Love Canal landfill (and other hazardous waste landfills, such as Kin-Buc in Edison, NJ), and they found the leachates similar in their cancer-causing potential.The Texas study shows that even though municipal landfills may not legally receive "hazardous" wastes, the leachate they produce is as dangerous as the leachate from hazardous waste landfills. The abundance of toxics in municipal landfills probably occurs because the entire spectrum of consumer products ends up in municipal landfills, whereas hazardous waste landfills serve a limited number of industries within a region. In the study of 58 landfills, 113 toxic chemicals were in leachate from municipal landfills and 72 toxic chemicals in leachate from hazardous waste landfills. In municipal landfill leachate, 32 of the chemicals cause cancer, 13 cause birth defects, and 22 cause genetic damage; in industrial landfill leachate, 32 of the chemicals cause cancer, 10 cause birth defects, and 21 cause genetic damage.
