Current Concerns, Doug Westerman Nov 19, 2007
John Hanchette, a journalism professor at St. Bonaventure University, and one of the founding editors of USA Today related the following to DU researcher Leuren Moret. He stated that he had prepared news-breaking stories about the effects of DU on Gulf War soldiers and Iraqi citizens, but that each time he was ready to publish, he received a phone call from the Pentagon asking him not to print the story. He has since been replaced as editor of USA Today.

I live in Western Québec and we are in the midst of an Uranium Rush! Our watersheds are all claimed for Uranium........but they say Palladium! I say Platinum and Diamonds not Uranium. Sharbot Lake is in a battle with Frontenac Ventures, big time! We've formed a coalition in Ontario and in Western Québec with some brilliant people who have the same objective. With the Harper/Homer government calling all the shots,Homer has stiffled the experts who had shut down the Chalk River Nuclear facility due to numerous safety and health risks! Our Prime Minister ordered the plant be re-opened because he said that Medical Isotopes are in short supply! The chairman, Michael Burns resigned resigned.
