Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I will check to see if the department has ever done any research on dust. I do know that allergies and asthma are two illnesses that seem to be on the rise everywhere. We consider ourselves fortunate to have clean air. We do not have smog readings like they do in heavy industrialized areas, but certainly dust can be a contributor to asthma and allergies.

I just want to point out that the Member is absolutely right when he talks about tobacco. We have a tobacco strategy underway, but nothing on dust that I am aware of. I will check with the department and see how that kind of information might be compiled. Thank you.
