Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, I am not in a position to give you a medical assessment. I can give you what I would think would be some of the possible potential problems in a prolonged situation where there was a constant haze of dust. People with breathing and respiratory problems would probably be in difficulty. Seniors and young children may have some difficulty as well, and would possibly require to stay indoors or deal with the issue in some other way that is deemed appropriate.
Mr. Speaker, the issue of whether it is a medical hazard, it has not come to my attention that this is a pervasive problem. If it is, of course we would be prepared to look at it, along with MACA and Transportation. Thank you.
