Poll Question: Are you concerned about Wi-Fi's potential health risks?

CBC: posted February 21, 2012 (240 comments)

"Public board sides with Health Canada, Ontario premier

"Dave Miller says the Ottawa-Carleton District School Board trusts Health Canada's belief that Wi-Fi is not a cause for concern. (CBC)

"The man behind the public board's plan to wire the schools is siding with Health Canada. He also said most parents are excited by the prospect of their children using wireless internet to learn.

"Mostly, we are hearing calls about when are we going to get this installed, and how come it hasn't been done by now," said Dave Miller, manager of business and learning technologies at the school board. They ask, "How come I'm not ahead of the other guy?"

Poll Question: Do you think Wi-Fi should be banned at schools because of suspected health concerns?

"A Catholic teachers association looks to ban WiFi. What's next? Coffee?"

The Globe and Mail: Posted February 20, 2012

Intro:   "The Ontario English Catholic Teachers Association has called for schools to stop installing Wi-Fi because it poses a "potential health and safety risk" to staff and students.

"Let's hope that the science being taught in our schools is a lot better than the "scientific" reports that teachers are producing for each other . . .

"That's because the OECTA Wi-Fi study, entitled "A position regarding the use of Non-Ionizing Electromagnetic Radiation, including WiFi, in the workplace," is a disturbing mix of fear-mongering, false assumptions and twisted logic. Where to begin . . .

Poll Choices:
No, that's ridiculous, just look at the science
Yes, it's important to be cautious with our children's health
Maybe, if new damning evidence emerges WiFi radiation?
Teachers need to worry about more important things

Doctor's Information Package

Addressed to Medical Professionals. Useful to all.

Also available on this website:  Advice about how to obtain a letter from your medical doctor

"Dear Medical Professional:

"Your patient has asked us for support in providing you with information regarding the possible health risks from non-thermal microwave radiofrequency electromagnetic radiation, recently reclassified by the WHO/IARC as a Class 2B, possible human carcinogen.

"This WHO risk category also includes lead, DDT, chloroform, and dioxane, and is relevant to all wireless devices emitting radiofrequency electromagnetic fields, including cordless phones, cell phones, IPads, Wi-Fi routers, wireless games, baby monitors, and smart meters . . .

"Many doctors have already given medical advice to their patients by way of a medical letter or note on a prescription form stating that the patient should avoid, for medical reasons, living in a residence or residential complex at which a wireless meter is operating in order to maintain their health or avoid aggravating a medical condition. This medical advice stating the health condition and advising the patient that they should avoid ongoing exposure to wireless radiofrequency and smart meter emissions will allow your patient to participate in the Human Rights Action currently underway. We are hopeful that the individual's right to protect their health as advised by their medical doctor will be upheld by the Human Rights Tribunal, and this forced exposure within their own home to undesirable microwave radiofrequency emissions will be replaced with reasonable and respectful accommodation by BC Hydro . . . "

Information categories contained in this package: 

  1. Microwave Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Radiation - General 
  2. Smart Meters
  3. Interference with medical devices (Smart Meters Risk)
  4. Children
  5. EHS/ES - Electrosensitivity
  6. Diabetes
  7. Heart

Wi-Fi in Schools: Memorandum in Support of Preliminary Injunction Motion (3 of 7)

Morrison v. Portland Public Schools - Defendant: Portland Oregon Public Schools US District Court

"Alexandra Helen Morrison and David Mark Morrison offer the following Memorandum in support of their Motion for Preliminary Injunction as their fundamental rights are violated by Portland Public Schools' policy of educating via the internet by use of WI-FI.

"This case will establish that a child's fundamental rights and liberties to a life and health free from ill health and disease, and a parent's fundamental rights and liberties to the care and control of his child's health and continuing well-being are violated by Portland Public Schools' policy of educating via the internet by way of WI-FI and must be permanently enjoined as it is not narrowly tailored to a compelling governmental interest . . ."

Wi-Fi in Schools Part 1: Testing for Microwave Radiation Dangers in the Classroom

background, balanced overview, testing demonstration with reference points at Calais School in Vermont

First posted in September, 2011, this video would be an excellent resource for parents and teachers to raise awareness about wireless devices in schools.  It includes a meter demonstration showing the effects of signals from laptops and routers in Calais School in Vermont. 

Testing demonstration begins at 7'30" mark 



 As the Wireless Industry and School Boards continue to facilitate the acquisition of wireless computers and devices in schools, the situation at Calais School is becoming the norm for schools throughout the US and Canada.  

Link to Part Two in this series.

Wi-Max to Blanket Cities and Towns (SHAW)

Shaw Regional Manager, Greig Skulland 604-629-3344

Everywhere you go, in every town, in every park, on every beach, in every neighbourhood, you will be under great big Cisco Wi-Fi/Wi-Max routers. That's Shaw's great plan. Even in the little towns, like Enderby, and Merritt, and 100 Mile House.

The person to call is Shaw Regional Manager, Greig Skulland 604-629-3344

Tell him and his representatives you HATE the Wi-Max vision (High frequency Wi-Fi in streets and parks) and you plan on joining a class action lawsuit against them. They will be destroying your personal rights to safety on the streets, in your home, with your kids, in the parks. These emissions are a Class 2B carcinogen risk and they are flooding every neighbourhood with them.

Shaw is stating they are regulated and allowed to do this by Industry Canada. This is a lie.

Wi-Fi is unregulated and the only thing Industry Canada regulates are the components of the devices, which are manufactured to standards.  Industry Canada does nothing about health risks, and Health Canada, which should protect us, is lobbied and funded by wireless industry "customers."

They are now putting up the routers everywhere, in all towns and cities, for Shaw customers. That means that Telus will also want to do the same thing, and Rogers, and others . . . resulting in even more radiation.

Phone Shaw Regional Manager, Greig Skulland 604-629-3344.

Tell him you don't like the plans, that the public haven't been consulted, that this is dangerous, that you will even cancel your Shaw account if necessary. There is no defense for unleashing a risk on the whole public, beaming radiation upon all living things, everywhere.

Right now they are rolling out Wi-Max in White Rock, Surrey, Victoria, Vancouver, Langley . . . all across the Lower Mainland as far as we can tell. We are also hearing reports from the Okanagan that they are setting up the system there as well.
