The Canadian initiative to stop Wireless Electrical and Electromagnetic Pollution
16 May 2014released a report on Health Canada's proposal to revise its
RF exposure limits.
The original chairman of the RSC panel, Daniel Krewski
of the University of Ottawa, resigned last summer in the
midst of a controversy over his and other panel members'
possible conflicts of interest.
We looked into what happened. One lesson to be
drawn is that when it comes to such conflicts, anything
goes except non-disclosure.

Your Smart Phone Is Making Birds Stupid
A new study by scientists in Germany has shown exposure to so-called "electrosmog" adversely affects migratory birds' biological navigation systems.

DTE's resistance will crumble."
If you have respect for or love yourself, love your children, love your grandchildren, or love your wonderful pets, don't even think about it againjust DO IT!
I took the smart meter off my home in January of 2013. DTE has not turned off my energy or done anything in the negative. The only "harassment" I have experienced from DTE is an occasional phone call or letter. They told me after I pulled the meter off that they'd shut off my electricityI ignored them. Occasionally, Joseph McCormick, the head of their smart meter department, calls, and I tell him, "Joe, you're never going to put that meter put back on my home!"
DTE put the smart meter on my home in July of 2012. In the days, weeks, and months that followed, I experienced horrible insomnia, memory loss, headaches, and feelings like I was going crazy. I didn't know the meter had been installed (I hadn't even heard of smart meters), and I couldn't understand why Iwho had always been a great sleepersuddenly couldn't sleep anymore. That was my first sign that something was wrong. I began talking to my friends about it, and one of them said, "Do you have a smart meter?" That's when I learned what they were. I called DTE and found out the meter had been put on my house in Julyat exactly the time I became unable to sleep.
My now 17-year-old son Drew was diagnosed at age 14 with juvenile diabetes. Once he began taking insulin, his blood sugar levels (A1c's) were perfect. He is a patient at Mott's Children's Hospital. After the smart meter went on our home (Drew's bedroom being four feet from the meter), Drew's blood sugar levels shot up from 6.8 to 9.5a very dangerous level! I didn't have to think twice and immediately pulled that damn meter off my house! Love beats out fear.
I took my meter off in January of 2013. Drew had an appointment with his endocrinologist less than a month later, and by then his A1c's had dropped back to an almost normal range. Three months later, they were normal again. I am enclosing a chart of Drew's A1c's from Mott's Hospital showing his levels before, during, and after the smart meter. You can see the effect removing the smart meter had on his levels.
I believe health is our only true wealth.
When enough people remove the smart meters from their homes, DTE's resistance will crumble. It takes you! Stand up for your rightsyour right to health, your right to protect your children and loved ones.
I believe that 30 people all taking off their meter within the same week will turn the tide! I am never going to allow a smart meter to be put on my home againnever! Won't you stand with me? It's not really all that scary once you do it. In fact, it feels quite good!

"No smart meter will ever touch our home again."
When confronted with a difficult situation, we think of all sorts of reasons to justify our non-action. But by now, you've read the science: Wireless technology is a ticking time bomb, a carcinogen. You know that there are thousands of people suffering immediate effects. You know, the system's only concerned with the bottom line, not your healththat's for sure. No one in power is looking out for you. You have to look out for yourself, for your family. I sure hope anyone who is experiencing severe health effects, or even minor effects, realizes their health is so much more important than being bullied into living with a smart meter.
I also hope that anyone who is seemingly not experiencing health problems, but who has a smart meter on their home, will carefully consider the long-term havoc this meter could wreak on their health, especially on their children's.
The smart meter is installed
Life can change in a heartbeatliterally. That's what happened for me. We didn't know a smart meter had been installed on our home until reading a small notation on the bottom of the electric bill sent to us nearly a month after the meter was installed. Was I worried? Just the opposite I was excited, having heard only great things about them.
My only worry at the time we received that bill (unrelated, I thought) were recent changes in my health. A few weeks prior to the receipt of our electric bill (but very shortly after, I later learned, installation of the smart meter), I had awakened with a racing heart. It happened again a couple days later and continued to occur every day when I awoke. I couldn't figure it out. Was I having bad dreams? Soon, I began noticing irregular heart palpitations during the day. There had been more and more over the last two weeks. And also insomnia, headaches, ear pain, difficulty hearing, flu-like symptoms, numbness, excessive flatulence and abdominal pains, and rashes, to name a few. My children soon began to complain of some of these same symptoms. I thought it was a bug, and that the problems with my heart were a separate issue.
While on my computer one morning, some time after we had received the bill with the notation informing us that a smart meter had been installed, I decided to learn more about the meters. DTE hadn't left nor sent us any instructions. I was mildly surprised to find that the meters work wirelessly. And thenI came across an article warning of health problems. Curious, I clicked the link, and my life turned upside-down. There before me was an exact list of my recent health problems, my family's health problems. My heartthinking back to the notation on our billing statementhad begun acting funny just days after the installation. I was shocked to my core when I continued my search, finding more and more articles; person after person reporting these same symptoms where smart meters have been deployed. I also felt relieved at maybe having found the source. But it seemed crazy. Wemy family and Ihad been using wireless technology for years. How could these meters be any different? How could they truly affect people's health like this? So began my crash course on EMFs, microwave technology, and electrohypersensitivity.
Into the second month after installation, my husband was back to work, the kids were in school. They seemed a bit better, but I was feeling worse. I decided to conduct an experiment and drove off into the country, away from any smart meters. After a while, the ringing in my ears and my headache diminished, my heart calmed. What also diminished and vanished was any lingering skepticism that had remained: It was definitely the meters causing these health problems.
I called DTE. I wanted them to know their meters were dangerous. It didn't matter who I spoke with, like robots on repeat I heard the following: "They're as safe as cell phones. No, they cannot be removed." So frustrated, I began calling a few times a week, hoping to get through to the right person, someone who would listen and help. My request was simple: Allow us an analog meter. They refused.
We were in a living nightmare, my health continuing its rapid downward spiral. My heart thumped like a fish on dry land. The constant ringing in my ears was now accompanied by popping every few seconds, as if changing altitude. I began seeing flashes of light when I closed my eyes. One more monththat was our plan. We'd hold out for the opt-out program that DTE assured us was coming. (We were completely unaware of the fact that both the smart meter and the opt meter would expose us to dirty electricity.)
There came a day when I just didn't think I'd get to see the next. I went to the ER, and spent the night away from home. Back in my own bed the following night, I urinated on myself (incontinence, I have since learned, is a not uncommon effect of smart meters).
How absurd that I had even subjected myself to this torture!
Even more ridiculous, that I continued doing so!
Chancing death
literally, with my heart problems
because I was afraid to remove a DTE smart meter!
very next day.
I sure hope anyone who is experiencing severe health effects, or even minor effects, realizes their health is so much more important than being bullied into living with a smart meter.

This is an abomination. Richard Stanwick has refused to acknowledge any of the studies showing the harm to children exposed to RF, and supports WiFi being put into schools. When parents have asked for accommodation to children who are sensitive, to allow some schools to maintain wired access, he has refused, saying that wifi is safe. Granted he is just following the proclamations of his boss, Dr. Perry Kendall who also refuses to implement the precautionary principle until he is "given proof", but a reward!!
I hope that parents will write to the Canadian Pediatric Society about this.
health effects inconclusive, many European jurisdictions are choosing
to err on the side of caution until more is known.
Pinto dismisses the claim for liability of a neighbor for "damage" with two cell phone base stations
http://www.europapress.es/madrid/noticia-pinto-desestima-reclamacion-responsabilidad-patrimonial-vecino-danos-dos-estaciones-telefonia-20140217192902.html
MADRID , 17 Feb. (IRIN ) -
Pinto City Council has dismissed the complaint, filed in January 2013 , a neighbor called the liability of the Consistory, for damages resulting from the installation and operation of two Base Stations Mobile Phone located on the roof of the building located on Calle Joan Miró, 10.
As explained by the local government, this neighbor in its complaint sought compensation of 136,189.98 euros and has been dismissed after the technical reports and dictates about which states that " the Spanish State has exclusive jurisdiction to regulate the public domain radio " .
" The Central Government has issued Royal Decree 1066/2001 of 28 September, Regulation laying down the conditions for the protection of public radio , radio emissions restrictions and health protection measures , on a scientific basis is approved that supports " out.
This Royal Decree establishes the Inspection and Certification of Radio installations belongs to the Technical Services of the Ministry concerned .
During the investigation of this claim has requested a report to the Provincial de Telecomunicaciones de Madrid , which states that " mobile operators present at the Joan Miró are put into service and comply with regulations that ensures compliance with the emission levels in the area in relation to the provisions of Royal Decree 1066/2001 of 28 September. "
In the technical reports issued the judgment of the High Court of Valencia December 29, 2008 was also collected , which states that " a municipality can hardly have valid scientific reports in the Scientific Community results tell us that placing a cell tower falls within the rated control activities by municipal technical services " .
At this point, adds that " even be possible for a person or group of people could be shown to seriously affect , but would not be enough either to prohibit or to take general precautions against them."
" Take the case of peaches where allergy sufferers with its only touch have not alarming reactions and this has happened to us all cut peach or prohibit the sale ," reads the letter .
Electrosensitivity
This neighbor Angel Martin J. takes time claiming the Consistory " responsibility" for what he considers " dereliction of duties " of the local authority to illness endured by his mother, ' electrosensitivity ' the waves, which was aggravated , he argues , by mobile phone masts locality .
Angel has always defended his " struggle" for everyone " is aware of the danger of the waves " of the mobile phone and wifi facilities , following the death of his mother on 28 November last year.
"This is a warning owners and social level," claimed a few months ago after saying that his mother suffered a painful condition that resulted in " Radiation feel a pain that seared the skin and throat ." That led her parents to move house nine times and having to sleep even in garages .
EMF secretary Ong Bee Lay claimed the towers posed a health hazard due to the electromagnetic radiation.
