Sarnia Justice Film Festival – season 1 first quarterly film

Toxic Trespass Sarnia Public Library Auditorium Saturday, April 26, 7pm Free admission

Toxic Trespass reveals the links between industrial chemicals, environmental degradation and childhood illness and asks why our governments are doing so shockingly little about the problem.  Filmed in Sarnia and Windsor, this film is essential viewing for anyone concerned about the effects of pollutants on our - and our children's - very DNA. 

Panelists from Aamjiwnaang First Nation and from Occupational Health Clinics for Ontario Workers will be available to answer questions after the film presentation.

 

A must see if you are concerned about:

  • the proposed expansion of Highway 402
  • the lack of a local pesticide bylaw
  • the impact of chemical emissions on our and our children’s endocrine / reproductive systems
