The town of asbestos in Quebec (which they renamed last year because it was too shameful) had one of the largest (the largest?) asbestos mine in the world. It closed in 2011 with plans from the government to inject close to 60 million $ to reopen it... it didn’t go through because the party that promised it lost the elections to the party that promised NOT to do it, but note that the question of whether anyone would still buy asbestos never entered into consideration. So yeah all this asbestos must be going somewhere if it’s still profitable to mine.
