(Translation) Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Good morning colleagues. I want to talk about diseases that are acquired from PCB. PCB has been a major concern in some of the communities in my riding, particularly in Clyde River and Broughton Island. There is a place called Cape Christian and some scientists have found some PCBs in this area, in as many as 40 barrels. There was some work done on cleaning up PCB sites. Today, Mr. Speaker, I want to say that, as I was visiting Broughton Island, I have had the opportunity to go to a DEW Line site and see this for myself. There are some older buildings on this site and these older, abandoned units have not been cleaned up. There has not been any cleaning up on these sites. During question period, I will be asking the Minister responsible for the environment with regard to the clean-up site on the DEW Line. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. (Translation ends)
