After you loved one has died, it's just a hunk of decomposing meat. Why do people care which one they bury?

No scabs! Support the local 252 gravediggers union in Montreal!
Seriously though, can't the cemetery folks find anyone wiling and able to dig a hole in the ground?

Problem is, those fukkin' froggies don't KNOW their asses from a hole in the ground! Rumor has it that there's a few cadavers still riding the Hershey Highway thru Montreal.

Here is an interesting clip about corporate responsibility from a sidebar story:
"Quebec, home to most of Canada's asbestos mines, has one of the highest rates of mesothelioma on the planet.
Worldwide, about 125 million people are exposed to asbestos at work, and at least 90,000 die each year from asbestos-related diseases, according to the World Health Organization.
"It's really a public health epidemic," Brophy said.
Yet, asbestos continues to be mined in Canada. Our country is the second-largest exporter of the mineral, after Russia, shipping it mainly to developing countries such as India and China.
What's more, unlike countries in the European Union, as well as Japan, Australia and Saudi Arabia, Canada has not banned asbestos. Rather, the federal government actively promotes its use globally."
