The Town of Asbestos, Que. is once again reviewing the suggestions it received for its new name after a lacklustre response from residents over the top four picks. About 1,000 suggestions were received since the town, named after the mineral that was once its source of pride, announced it was seeking a new name last year. Once a major exporter of asbestos, the town's Jeffrey Mine stopped operating nearly 10 years ago. Caroline Payer said the town received "a little bit of everything" in their request for help finding a new name.
