Yeah you guys might think Im crazy but I believe that there is a strong correlation between cancer and the Oil Sands in the Fort McMurray region. I lived there for about 11 years and the amount of people (young and old) that developed cancer as well as other health issues is sky high...Ive known more people there whove gotten cancer than anywhere else Ive lived. And my dad just died of small cell lung cancer (and he'd never smoked in his life) and I just gotta wonder........................................
