		Health Canada has continued to follow the science that has been published on the health effects of manganese and exposure to manganese through diet or inhalation since the time of the last risk assessment.
		It should be noted that Health Canada, the U.S. EPA and the WHO all agreed in their risk assessments for inhaled manganese that the most sensitive endpoints of manganese toxicity are subtle, subclinical neurological signs such as hand-steadiness and eye-hand coordination.
		Health Canada conducted the 1994 (and previous) risk assessments of MMT to respond to Part 5, paragraphs 68(b) and 68(c) of the then CEPA (1988) to assess whether or not a substance is "CEPA toxic" in the Canadian environment.

		The letter written on behalf of the Minister, which is identified in the applicant's originating notice of motion as the subject of the application for judicial review, was simply informative in nature and did not purport to determine or otherwise affect any legal rights or duties of the applicant.

	FORCES - FORCES CANADA - B.C. AFFAIRS - Open Letter to Joy Mac Phail, B.C. Minister of Health
		The approach instead seems to be the elimination of smoking by using the force of the state to bend the will of the citizens who have made a choice that is in disagreement with state policy.
		We hold the B.C. Ministry of Health largely responsible for creating the next generation of B.C. smokers, while acting on the basis of short-term political gain, if it presumes to stop teenage smoking by saying, in effect, "the adults say you can't, so don't you dare...".
		We demand an assurance that the Ministry of Health and the B.C. government will not let the anti-smoking juggernaut make this province a socially hostile place for smokers who live and are taxed here, or for those who come to visit.
