The people of Aamjiwnaang First Nation are demanding a chemical plant, which is located right across the street from their reserve, be shut down after being repeatedly exposed to high levels of benzene, a cancer-causing chemical.

Many said the pollution left them feeling ill and anxious about the air they breathe. Carolyn Jarvis reports on how the First Nation is facing a possible environmental emergency.
