Day of Mourning holds special meaning for founder of McIntyre Powder Project April 28, 2021 April 28, 2021 TIMMINS DAILY PRESS The Day of Mourning will mean something extra this year for Janice Martell, who is the driving force behind the McIntyre Powder Project. Her research started in 2014, and she went public with her findings in 2015. “In 2011, I filed a claim for my dad for Parkinson’s related to McIntyre powder exposure. He was an underground miner in Sudbury and Elliot Lake, and his exposure to McIntyre powder was in Elliot Lake at Rio Algom Quirke Mine. He was there until the mine closed in 1990, and 10-11 years later, he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2001, having started symptoms in 2000. Ten years after that in 2011, is when I found out he had been exposed to McIntyre powder,” said Martell.
