More cancer study really not necessary

To the Editor,

Re: City part of cancer study, July 28.

Do we really need another long-term cancer study? Sixty years or more, billions of dollars and the rate stands around one in 10 for breast cancer and about the same for prostate cancer.

May I suggest that those concerned and every reader of this newspaper check out the work of eminent U.K. scientist Jane Plant?

Her credentials are impeccable and her personal story of her journey and successful battle against this disease is something everyone should know.

Although this story has been documented by the U.K. Daily Mail and broadcast by the BBC, it remains totaly ignored in Canada, possibly because of the potentially commercial fallout once the general public gets to know.

Again I urge everyone to check out her story and buy her book, Your life in your hands, because no one else is going to spread this information.
