Dear
John Horgan and Adrian Dix
We
are appalled that Dr. Bonnie Henry felt a regurgitated form
letter from Kendall’s library of lies and deception was
good enough to send to a large group of parents, teachers and
students who are concerned about the current proven
health risks to our children from the mandatory exposure to
microwave radiation exposure in our schools. Dr. Kendall disregarded and minimized
thousands of peer-reviewed studies, providing proof of cancer,
DNA damage, protein synthesis, stress response, and
detrimental biological and health effects in humans that occur
at radiation levels far below the existing Safety Code 6
Guideline.
Dr.
Kendall was unable to provide the parents with even ONE peer
reviewed study by a scientist or medical expert stating
“exposure to microwave radiation is safe for children and the
unborn.” The link Dr. Henry provided to Dr. Kendall's information is a dead link.
Dr. Stanwick,
our School Health Officer, has endorsed the installation of a
known 2b carcinogen
listed next to lead, DDT, methyl mercury, chloroform, and
car exhaust as an acceptable risk in our
schools. We want to know is Cancer an
acceptable risk too?
Dr.
Bonnie Henry stated in her recent email that, she along with my
colleagues across the country, continue to monitor the
science around electromagnetic fields and have reviewed the
recent publications with scientists at the BCCDC and the BC
Cancer Agency. We
are requesting a copy of these studies and the recent
publications that were recently "reviewed" along with the
names of the scientists and medical experts who stated
microwave radiation exposure is safe.
This scandalous report shows just how
reputable this organization is.

$561,000 in salary, while they celebrate volunteers, working
for free, to raise money!

We are aware Health Canada administers the Radiation Emitting Devices Act which governs the sale, lease, and importation of radiation emitting devices does NOT have any regulations in place to protect the public from long-term exposure to the biological effects of the “non-thermal” levels of microwave radiation. In 2013, in the Superior Court of Quebec, James McNamee, scientist for Health Canada, admitted that the Safety Code 6 guideline for microwave radiation emitting from wireless technology is based ONLY on thermal effects, heating of the skin.
On page 3, inside the Safety Code 6 document it states, “These guidelines apply to all individuals working at, or visiting, federally regulated sites and may also be adopted by the provinces, industry or other interested parties.” Schools are not federally regulated sites and, therefore, SC 6 does not apply to wifi in schools. The fact that the provinces may Adopt SC 6 means that the provinces are free to set their own guidelines.

Dr. Bonnie
Henry states that “.
. . and we continue to recommend people make personal
choices to reduce their exposure.” How can
parents make a Personal
Choice to protect their children when microwave
radiation exposure is mandatory 6 hours a day 5 days a week in
all our public schools and 24/7 in hospitals?
Our
Provincial Health Officer, Dr. Bonnie Henry, has failed to
provide us with an official response to the 2018, current findings of the US National Toxicology
Program and the supporting Ramazzini Institute Study along
with over 27,000 peer reviewed studies that confirmed the link
to Cancer from
Microwave Radiation Exposure.
Canada
agreed the Precautionary Principle would be implemented
when an activity raises threats of harm to human health or
the environment, even if some cause and effect relationships
are not fully established scientifically. The
Precautionary Principle shifts the burden of proof, insisting
that those responsible for an activity must vouch for its
harmlessness and be held responsible if damage occurs. http://sehn.org/wingspread- conference-on-the- precautionary-principle/
Health is a Provincial
Jurisdiction. You have an obligation and a duty to protect our children
by taking the reasonable steps to reduce wireless radiation in
our schools immediately given the overwhelming amount of
evidence of harm.
Respectfully,
Janis
Hoffmann

Dear Janice Hoffmann:
I am responding to a
number of emails and letters you have sent in the last few
months. I am aware that you have had several responses from my
predecessor Dr. Kendall and from staff at the Ministry of
Health on this issue. The Honourable Adrian Dix, Minister of
Health, asked that I respond on his behalf.
In British Columbia, the BC Centre for
Disease Control (BCCDC) also provides information regarding the
human health effects of electro-magnetic exposures. This
information can be found at: http://www.bccdc.ca/health- info/health-your-environment/ electro-magnetic-exposures.
In addition the statement from Dr. Kendall
and frequently asked questions on this issue is available: http://www.bccdc.ca/health- info/health-your-environment/ electro-magnetic-exposures/ radiofrequency/do-cell-phones- cause-cancer-statement-from- provincial-health-officer-dr- perry-kendall-optical.
In my role as Provincial Health Officer I,
along with my colleagues across the country, continue to monitor
the science around electromagnetic fields and have reviewed the
recent publications with scientists at the BCCDC and the BC
Cancer Agency. There continues to be more research needed around
cellphone use and cancer and we continue to recommend people
make personal choices to reduce their exposure. The scientific
consensus, however, continues to support there is no evidence
that exposure to wifi and smart metres and other devices which
use radiofrequency transmission at current exposure levels poses
a threat to health of children or adults in BC. The statement
above remains the position of my office on this issue.
Sincerely,
Bonnie Henry, MD
MPH, FRCPC
Provincial Health Officer

Horgan, Premier
Honourable
Adrian Dix, Minister of Health
Honourable Rob Fleming, Minister of
Education
