Agent Orange continues to haunt lives of U.S. veterans trained in New Brunswick
Legislators in Maine are reopening a New Brunswick controversy many thought had already been consigned to the history books.
They have established a commission to study whether U.S. military veterans may have been exposed to Agent Orange and other toxic defoliants while on training exercises in the province.
The action, signed into law last week by Democratic Gov. Janet Mills, mandates a commission to "study the impacts of exposure to harmful chemicals on veterans who served at the Canadian military support base in Gagetown, New Brunswick, Canada."
