One week ago I sent the mayor and all the city councilors an email in regards to the addition of hexafluorosilicic acid (fluoride) to the cities drinking water.

Here is the email that was sent:

Hello, my name is Terry Wilson.
I am a new resident of Hamilton, and my family has lived here for over ten years. I am writing you today because of something that I find quite disturbing.
The city of Hamilton is promoting that tap water is the clear choice, and that it is completely safe. But the city is still adding what is commonly known as fluoride
to the public water supply. What most people do not realize is that the "fluoride" that is being added to our water is really called hexafluorosilicic acid.
hexafluorosilicic acid is literally classified as a toxic waste, that is produced from the phosphate fertilizer industry. It is not a naturally occurring substance like your water reports state.

There is a very wide range of side effects that occurring from ingesting this substance. Just recently the 23rd scientific study linking fluoride exposure to lowered IQ in children. Among other professionals citing that there is now more evidence linking fluoride exposure to cancer, than there ever was with DDT. You can look at all of the scientific studies here: http://www.fluoridealert.org/health/

Water fluoridation is the only medical treatment in Canadian history, that has been implemented on a large scale, without the informed consent of the patients. To my
knowledge there has never been a public vote on the issue in Hamilton. In cities across Canada, who have never voted on it and now have. Barrie, Kitchener/Waterloo, and now Calgary (on the verge of a vote) have all now held votes, and the people voted it out.

The time for a vote on the issue of water fluoridation in Hamilton is long over due! I hope that you will support this, and the people of Hamilton will not have to enact the Ontario fluoridation act, to force a referendum.

No politician or bureaucrat in city hall or in Ottawa have the right to tell us what will or will not go into our bodies.

Thank you, and I will look forward to your response.
Terry Wilson


The first response that I received from city councilor Brad Clarke. Brad is himself against fluoride, and agreed to add a poll to his blog about the addition of it to our water supply. In the one day that his poll was posted, 85% percent of the voters checked off a box that said to completely remove all fluoride compounds from the water supply in Hamilton. If that was an election, it would have won in a "landslide" victory.

That one totally threw me off, but then I got the second response.

Hi Terry,

Thank you for your message regarding Fluoride in the water. This topic has been brought up in Council Meetings. As things come to light with respect to changes in the way tap water is being treated, the Council will make a public announcement.

I acknowlege your concerns, and will be recording your message.

The Mayor aprreciates hearing from residents on the many matters relating to City business.

And the third was a short conversation with councilor Lloyd Ferguson.

Terry,
Our Medical Officer of Health has advised us it is the right thing to do. I am not a medical professional and therefore rely on her advise.

(Me)
I totally understand that! I am not a medical professional either. But when there is so many medical professionals, who oppose the practice, I think that it is in the best interests for the people of this great city to be given the chance to decide if they want it or not. I guess my real question is, would you support a public vote on the issue?

(Lloyd)
We had a long debate with public input two years ago and decided to stay with Fluoride. I know a number of medical doctors and dentist in Ancaster and all of them say Fluoride is the right thing to do.
Sorry I could not be more helpful.

The other twelve councilors have not replied at all.

This is very disturbing, but not new in the fight against fluoride. Although most of the population does not even know that it is being added to the water, or what it even is. And those who do know, (for the most part) all agree that we deserve a choice. Our elected officials do not seem to be interested in giving the people the
right to informed consent, or freedom of choice. They avoid the question like it is the plague, and when forced into the corner they will throw it of on to the head medical officer of health. Who of coarse fully supports it.

That is one doctor, out of the thousands in this country. Regardless if it is one doctor saying so, or every doctor in Canada saying the same thing. You still have the right to informed consent to any medical treatment!

The Canadian Awareness Network will not stop this battle until everyone in this great city gets that freedom to informed consent. These emails are only the start of what will probably be a long and hard fought battle!

Infowars special featuring Dr. Paul Connett, on January 27 2011.

"Alex talks with Dr. Paul Connett, a full and tenured professor of chemistry at St. Lawrence University in Canton, New York, where he has taught for 15 years. He obtained his undergraduate degree in natural sciences from Cambridge University and his Ph.D. in chemistry from Dartmouth College in the US. For the past 14 years he has researched waste management issues with a special emphasis on the dangers posed by incineration and the safer and more sustainable non-burn alternatives. Dr. Connett has researched fluoride over the last few years and has produced Fluoride: A Statement of Concern. Alex also covers the latest news and takes your calls."

Part 3

Is this the end of water fluoridation?

NEW YORK, Dec. 21, 2010 Exposure to fluoride may lower children's intelligence says a study pre-published in Environmental Health Perspectives, a publication of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (online December 17, 2010).

According to Paul Connett, Ph.D., director of the Fluoride Action Network, "This is the 24th study that has found this association, but this study is stronger than the rest because the authors have controlled for key confounding variables and in addition to correlating lowered IQ with levels of fluoride in the water, the authors found a correlation between lowered IQ and fluoride levels in children's blood. This brings us closer to a cause and effect relationship between fluoride exposure and brain damage in children."

Source

24 human and animal tests have now confirmed this. How can Health Canada fight this anymore? Most of these studies show a lowering in IQ's when the fluoride levels are much higher then what we currently have in our water. So according to Health Canada, the amounts of fluoride in our water are safe, and will not cause these effects.

But at the same time, Health Canada says that they do not know how much fluoride Canadians are ingesting. Because of the many ways the public is exposed to the substance. There is fluoride in most bottled drinks, preserved and processed foods, Teflon cooking pans and many more other sources.

So we are being exposed to this hazardous waste not only in the water at so called "safe" limits, but from a variety of other sources, and there is no way to tell how much each individual is consuming. That makes it next to impossible for any municipality or Health Canada to verify that Canadians are not being over exposed to fluoride. Nor can they verify that fluoride is having no negative side effects on us or our children.

Even with the levels of fluoride in the water, every one consumes different amounts on a daily basis. Think if some one is working out or physically training everyday. How much more water are they drinking compared to some one who is not.

I sincerely hope that this is another nail in the coffin for water fluoridation! And we can make it that. If you live in a fluoridated city, please send this story, the rest of the stories on this site, and many more from fluoridealert.org to your city councilors and mayor. Give it to your doctor and your dentist as well.

Together we can be the change we wish to see in the world!

As many people already know the commonly used sodium fluoride is extremely toxic, and contrary to most "medical professionals" it is not good for the human body.

But if you have become health conscious and stopped drinking fluoridated water your good right? Yes and No.

If you were raised in a community that fluoridates your water, it has built up in your system. Sodium fluoride is an accumulative poison. If you are like me, born and raised in a fluoridated city it has built up in your body. Mainly in your bones, thyroid glad, and pineal gland. So how do you get that fluoride out of your system?

That is a very complicated question. There is no 100% verified method of totally detoxing fluorides from your body. But there is several methods that I have used (along with many others), and you can feel a huge difference. For example: Joint pain disappearing, Chronic headaches gone, an ability to think clearer, and weight loss.

Number one of coarse is to stop as much intake of fluoride as you can. Even though you may have stopped drinking it in your water, many preserved foods contain it.
Second is to start using a sauna regularly. Saunas expel many heavy metals and toxins (including fluoride) from your system. Third, getting enough sunlight daily plays a large role in detoxing the pineal gland. As well as getting enough time in the dark. Sounds strange I know. But the right balance of light and darkness helps to regulate the melatonin production (the main function of the pineal gland). Forth is getting enough exercise (which also helps regulate melatonin production). And fifth is doing a raw liver detox. The raw detox is were most people cringe and get turned away. But it is very simple and effective. All that you need to do is drink two cups of tea a day, cut back on preserved foods, and increase your intake of raw foods. Here is the tea recipe that I use.
* 1 thick slice of lemon
* 1 piece of fresh ginger, 2/3" long, peeled and bruised
* 1 cup boiling water
Place lemon and ginger in cup. Add boiling water and leave to infuse for two minutes. Remove lemon and ginger and drink immediately.

Using these five methods is very effective! But it is not a quick fix. It took all of that fluoride years to accumulate, and it will take years to get it all out. Everyone is different and can expect different results, but for myself I started to feel a large difference in 3 months. I have now been doing it for 3 years, and have felt great! I am at the point that if I drink a cup of coffee that contains fluoridated water, or eat a processed food that has fluoride, I become physically ill.

Here is another must see video from infowars.com, Dr Russell Blaylock lays out his thoughts on fluoride, vaccines, and eugenics.

Dr. Russell Blaylock M.D. is a retired neurosurgeon and author whose trailblazing research has tirelessly documented the fact that there is an epidemic of neurological disorders in the western world which are directly connected to toxins in our environment, and how this relates to the larger global eugenics program behind population reduction. In this fascinating interview, Blaylock reveals how depopulation programs forged by the Rockefeller foundation in association with the Nazis were the basis of modern day incarnations of eugenics like fluoride poisoning and vaccinations.

I have been honored to take part in a town hall meeting with this man. His knowledge on fluoride is uncontested by any other doctor to my knowledge. Dr. Paul Connett is interviewed by Alex Jones, and like usual he is dead on!

After talking to, reading from, and watching reports from countless medical "professionals" promoting the practice of water fluoridation and condemning professionals and citizens who stand up against it . It is my time to say enough is enough!

We are consistently lied to about fluoride. Health Canada says that they do not mandate fluoridation, municipalities do. In turn the municipalities say that they go by the Health Canada recommendations. No one even wants to admit that they are responsible.

We get told by many scientists and health care "professionals" that water fluoridation is a cheap and effective measure to prevent tooth decay. Dr. Malcolm Lock the head medical officer of Brant county even went as far as telling me that it is for the poor people, that cannot afford toothpaste.

But here are graphs from two separate studies that so it is not effective at all.
The first is a comparison between fluoridated Vs non fluoridated countries, produced by the fluoride action network.

And the second graph is one I have used many times. It is from a study conducted by statistics Canada. It shows next to no difference between provinces that fluoridate and those who do not.

8 of the top 10 WORST CITIES FOR TEETH are fluoridated (America). The November 2010 issue of Men's Health magazine identified the following 10 cities for WORST TEETH:

1. St. Louis - Fluoridated since 1963
2. Philadelphia - Fluoridated since 1954
3. Newark (NJ) - Not fluoridated
4. Baltimore (MD) -Fluoridated
5. New Orleans (LA) - Fluoridated since 1974
6. Jackson, Mississippi - Fluoridated since 1969
7. Jersey City, New Jersey - Not fluoridated
8. Milwaukee (WI) - Fluoridated since 1953
9. Kansas City (MO) - Fluoridated since 1981
10. Dallas (TX) - Fluoridated since 1966

Health Canada promotes it as completely safe and says that the science showing anything different is "junk" science. Here is a few examples of that "junk" science

thanks to the meticulous research of Dr. Jennifer Luke from the University of Surrey in England - that the pineal gland is the primary target of fluoride accumulation within the body.

As acknowledged by the U.S. National Toxicology Program there is a "biological plausibility" of a link between fluoride exposure and osteosarcoma. The biological plausibility centers around three facts: 1) Bone is the principal site of fluoride accumulation, particularly during the growth spurts of childhood; 2) Fluoride is a mutagen when present at sufficient concentrations, and 3) Fluoride can artificially stimulate the proliferation of bone cells (osteoblasts).
Source

When bone turnover occurs, the potential exists for immune system cells and stem cells to be exposed to concentrations of fluoride in the interstitial fluids of bone that are higher than would be found in serum.

In most cases, we are told that fluoride is a natural occurring mineral. Calcium fluoride is a naturally occurring mineral, that is true.

But in 90% of the cases it is Hexafluorosilicic acid and sodium silicofluorides used in water fluoridation. The only difference between the two, is one is a liquid (Hexafluorosilicic acid) and one is the powder form (silicofluorides).

Both are toxic waste from the aluminum and phosphate fertilizer industries. Not the pharmaceutical grade fluoride that is in your toothpaste.

And beyond even the health effects, the effectiveness, or its origins. There is our right to informed consent. According to the
Canadian medical protection association

"For consent to treatment to be considered valid, it must be an “informed” consent. The patient must have been given an adequate explanation about the nature of the proposed investigation or treatment and its anticipated outcome as well as the significant risks involved and alternatives available. The information must be such as will allow the patient to reach an informed decision. In situations where the patient is not mentally capable, the discussion must take place with the substitute decision maker."

Well I don't know about any of you, but I have never had a doctor or dentist explain why I need to drink fluoridated water, and had him/her explain what the possible side effects are. We have never even been given a chance to hold a municipal vote on the issue. Not when the program was first started and not until we the people make it happen. Kitchener/Waterloo is a perfect example of that. After months of public debates from both sides of the argument, the public voted it out of the water.

But it is not regarded as a medical treatment. It is classified a adding a nutrient to the water. That is how they bypass the informed consent. Nothing more then a little word play.

Either sticking a needle in your arm to give you a dangerous vaccine, or adding a so called nutrient to your water, they both have a medical purpose. Which makes them both a medical treatment!

We also are told that the tooth decay that fluoridation prevents saves the health care system untold amounts of money. What they don't mention is the cost of hip fractures, hyperthyroidism, cancer, and so on. Caused by fluoride.

To put it very simply and logically, fluoride is very dangerous, not effective, and costs the tax payers high amounts of money (adding it to the water costs $100,000 a year in the city of Hamilton alone, never mind the cost to the health care system). And on top of that we are consistently lied to about it.

It is time to say enough of the BS and just get it out! If we need it that badly a doctor or dentist can prescribe it, just like any other medication.

When I took a look at the quarterly water report from the Carlisle water treatment plant in Hamilton.

The sentence "A naturally occurring mineral found in most waters" beside the fluoride section jumped right out to me. I couldn't believe it! Could it be true that the city of Hamilton's water supply had the naturally occuring Calcium Fluoride instead of the usual Hydrofluosilicic acid and sodium silicofluoride.

Water report HERE

As I quickly suspected this was not true. In another section of the city website, I found this. Hydrofluosilicic acid is precisely metered into the water so as to raise the natural fluoride concentration to approximately 0.5 – 0.8 parts per million (ppm).
More HERE

So what exactly is Hydrofluosilicic acid?

Hydrofluosilicic acid is the substance derived from the pollution scrubbing devices of the superphosphate fertilizer industry, 70 to 75% of which comes from the Cargill fertilizer corporation.
Fluosilicic acid, which is a classified hazardous waste, is the substance used in 90% of the water fluoridation programs.

It is a toxic waste that is illegal to dump into our lakes and rivers, but purposely added to our drinking water.

What are the known side effects?

* Increases lead absorption
* Disrupts synthesis of collagen
* Hyperactivity and/or lethargy
* Muscle disorders
* Brain damage, and lowered IQ
* Arthritis
* Dementia
* Bone fractures
* Lowers thyroid function
* Bone cancer (osteosarcoma)
* Inactivates 62 enzymes
* Inhibits formation of antibodies
* Genetic damage and cell death
* Increases tumor and cancer rate
* Disrupts immune system
* Damages sperm and increases infertility

How effective is it in fighting tooth decay?

According to statistics Canada, it is not effective at all!
Here is a graph posted in the Globe and Mail April 2010. That shows very little difference in the tooth decay rates of Ontario (over 70% of water fluoridated) and Quebec (6% of water fluoridated)


So lets get this straight. The fluoride that is being added to our water has a very long list of side effects, with very little benefit to dental health, and on top of that the city of Hamilton is lying to us about the origins of the fluoride.


But it does not end there. I have now seen countless signs and billboards promoting that Hamilton's water is the clear choice.

The city council, mayor, and city employee's are knowingly lying to the people in Hamilton. As well as promoting their toxic cocktail as being safe and the "clear choice".

This is criminal negligence and they should all be fired immediately!

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Regarding Dr. Lynn Tomkins (President of the Ontario Dental Association), being appalled at my audacity to question the safety of fluoridation:

Dr. Tomkins quotes the Centre for Disease Control (U.S.) stating water fluoridation is one of the greatest medical accomplishments of the 20th century. This absurd statement was made back in the 1980s.

Since that statement, doctors in California and the U.S. Public Health Service, after 33 years of study, have gathered strong evidence that fluoride causes at least three types of cancer (liver, bone and thyroid).

The head of the department of preventative dentistry (University of Toronto) declared accumulated affects of fluoridation will be catastrophic. The Paediatric Society of Canada has also stated that giving fluoridated water to infants will irreversibly damage their teeth before they erupt.

Both the National Research Councils of Canada and the United States stated that fluoride is an endocrine disruptor (gender bender). Who are we going to believe?

The dental association maintains that this practice is perfectly safe; "Trust me I am your dentist." These people have stuffed patient's mouths with mercury for over one hundred years also saying (some still do) it is not harmful.

Thousands of lives have been ruined over the course of many years from mercury poisoning. Chewing food with mercury fillings releases 700 times the acceptable level of mercury as stated by the EPA (U.S.).

Now they are telling us this pollutant they admit is scrubbed from the chimneys of large phosphate fertilizer plants (not natural fluoride) hydrofluoric acid containing lead, arsenic, mercury, cadmium and radium is safe for our babies, children and seniors to drink, and they have dumped this into our water supply since 1973. It should be known the residents in Alliston rejected this practice.

The World Health Organization has declared fluoride a drug, so to you Dr. Tomkins, do you feel you have the right to medicate all the people of Tottenham against the wishes of many?

Is your organization lobbying the provincial government to fluoridate all the communities in Ontario including Alliston, Beeton and Green Briar? They are, by the way.

Over 30 per cent of children in the U.S. and Canada have irreversible damage caused by this already. According to the ODA, this can only be caused by ingesting fluoride through a water source.

To quote Dr. Arvid Carlsson Nobel, "fluoridation is against all modern principles of pharmacology. It is obsolete. I don't think anybody, not even a single dentist, would bring up this question in Sweden anymore."

Need I say more?

5.
Sodium Fluoride, Sodium Silica fluorides, and hexafluorosilicic acid are not natural occurring substances. They are by products of mainly the phosphate fertilizer industry, it literally is toxic waste.

4.
The side effects on human health range from Dental Fluorosis, Arthritis, Reproductive organ damage, Pineal Gland damage, Thyroid Gland, all the way up to bone cancer's.

3.
The research that is used to promote water fluoridation is outdated, and not available even in FIOA request in most cases.

2.
98% of European countries have banned water fluoridation because of the dangers.

1.
No matter how long fluoride has been in your city or towns water, We the people have never been asked about it. The right to informed consent of medical treatment has been thrown right out the window because of a simple case of word play.

We deserve a say in what goes into our bodies. And it is time to stand up and say enough is enough!
