Why is Cancer Sweeping Tiny Fort Chipewyan?

Attached is yet another article from back in 2006. The author Patrick Brethour goes into details of how the conditions were brought to light by Dr. O'Connor and he also give his own opinions on the tragedy that the people of Fort Chip have lived. Notice how towards the end of the article an official from First Nations and Inuit Health says that he, "felt quite comfortable," drinking the water but then ended up draining the glass that he had poured for himself. It reminded me of when Erin Brokovich told the lawyers that they brought the water in for them directly from Hinkley and they didn't drink it.
