I am calling on Dr. Perry Kendall, Dr. Richard Stanwick and all School and Chief Medical Health
Officers in the province to resign from one of the most prestigious positions a physician can hold,
protecting our children. As physicians and medical health officers you are guilty of breaking your
Hippocratic Oath, "nil nocere" - do no harm, by allowing innocent children to be exposed to a known
2b carcinogen in our schools.
I have a grandson who is 10 years old and experiences severe headaches, nausea, extreme fatigue
and insomnia with prolonged exposure to microwave radiation emitting from commercial Wi-Fi
transmitters and wireless devices in our schools. This boy has been dismissed from his Home School
District for the last three years based on an old letter dated 2011 from Dr. Stanwick and another old
letter from Dr. Kendall, dated November 17, 2010, before the World Health Organization declared
microwave radiation a 2b carcinogen.
The School Board says because they are not medical experts they rely solely on the information
provided by the School Medical Health Officer, Dr. Richard Stanwick and the Provincial Chief Health
Officer Dr. Perry Kendall, who are not scientists or medical experts with a background in the biological
effects of microwave radiation has on the human body.
Dr. Stanwick states: Upon review of the evidence, the prevailing position in this province from experts
at the federal, provincial and regional levels is that the evidence reveals that “Wi-Fi exposure in
schools does not pose a level of risk that is unacceptable.” The other chief medical health
officers in the province, Provincial Health Officer, Ministry of Health and other federal and provincial
agencies hold this position.
Again what evidence! On what evidence or recommendations do Health Officials assert Microwave
Radiation emissions from wireless technologies at any level is safe for children? Who has decided
what the acceptable risk is? If wireless technology is safe then why is there any risk at all?
Dr. Stanwick and the School District have refused to follow even the basic recommendations stated by
Dr. Kendall in his letter in 2010.
If despite the lack of evidence of any adverse health effects related to W-Fi and the fact that Wi-Fi
exposure constitutes only a small fraction of total radiofrequency exposure, school-boards still wish to
consider measures for reducing children’s exposure to Wi-Fi inexpensive (although unproven)
measures include:
- Limiting Wi-Fi use to certain times or locations within the school
- Turning off Wi-Fi when, not in use
- Disconnecting Wi-Fi in rooms, that do not use computers
- Ensuring user manuals for smart-phones and smart tablets are read and
recommendations are followed
Parents have never been informed of the health risks or given their written consent to expose their
children to microwave radiation in our schools. Safety Manuals and Disclaimers have not been
disclosed to parents, teachers and students therefore putting them at risk by not allowing them to
make an informed decision. School Boards have shifted the liability of potential lawsuits from the
permanent injuries to their School Medical Health Officer who has endorsed the installation of a known
2b carcinogen in our schools.
As parents we have been robbed of our right to protect our children from the mandatory exposure to
microwave radiation in our schools. Scientists and Medical Experts around the world are warning us
of the permanent health risks from accumulative and prolonged exposure from man made wireless
technology.
