Very cool.

Sarnia however is not a place one would want to live in, due to this Chemica Valley.

There have been documentaries about this area, and all the health effects these plants have on the community.

The community has one of the highest cancer and lung illness rates in Canada.
There is an indian reservation that borders right onto the chemical factories, and they found that chemical emissions have changed the DNA in that reservation. So much so that almost all kids born there are girls, because the males sperm in the area has been altered by the emissions.

Great for the economy, but that Chemical Valley is one big environmental mess in waiting.
