Quote from: Asbestos, Quebec, Chooses A New, Less Hazardous Name (https://www.npr.org/2020/10/20/925820680/the-town-of-asbestos-quebec-chooses-a-new-less-hazardous-name?utm_source=npr_newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_content=20201021&utm_term=4910967&utm_campaign=news&utm_id=1982930&orgid=467)
The residents [...] have selected a new name. Going forward, the town will be known as Val-des-Sources — valley of the springs — rather than the name of the carcinogenic mineral mined in the town until 2011.
