"Ontario Probes Agent Orange Poisoning" [1]

"The province has launched a probe into the use of the deadly toxin Agent Orange after a Toronto Star investigation showed young forestry workers were doused with the chemical in the 1950s, 60s and 70s.

The Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) has posted an alert online asking for people to come forward if they think they were exposed."
