I saw that before. The gel was supposedly pinkish-red. I'm not sure exactly where Oakville is, but the small town of Onalaska, Washington had a wild increase in childhood brain tumors around the same time. Many children died from brain cancers. It was slightly before 1994 iirc. There was also a spate of infections from "E. coli" at Jack-in-the-Box restaurants in Seattle around 1992 or so, affecting children mainly. I believe there were fatalities.

The pneumonic plague-type Ukrainian disease has reportedly popped up in Lithuania now, too.
