EMFs and Office of the Auditor General of Canada

We need your help.
Those of you who are concerned about radio frequency radiation, low frequency electromagnetic fields, dirty electricity or ground current in Canada and the possible health consequences can contact Roger Hillier, who is the Petitions Manager for the Office of the Auditor General of Canada.
He can be reached via email at: roger.hillier@oag-bvg.gc.ca
or by phone at: 1-888-761-5953 x 4664
I am sending this to people in Canada who have contacted me about cell phone towers, high voltage power lines, ground current, electro-sensitivity, compact fluorescent lights etc.. Apparently two petitions have been presented to the OAG (one is by Higgins and the other by Weatherall). However, I know there are a lot of you out there who have been frustrated with the answers you have received from Health Canada and other federal bodies.
Please email Roger and tell him about your concerns. It will make his job easier and it will help the two petitions currently on file.
Also, please let me know if you have/will contact him with perhaps a cc of your email correspondence. Please use "Concern about EMFs" in the subject heading.
The OAG is here to help us get Ministers in various Departments to respond to pressing concerns we all have about our health and environmental exposure to toxins (among other things). One email to Roger can make a difference. Share your story with him in a couple of paragraphs, ask specific Ministers to respond to your questions and lets see what happens.
Thanks for helping,
-magda
p.s. Please forward this email to those in Canada who have a story to share, a question to ask or are just concerned about this emerging public health issue.
