Fluoride Update
Did somebody mention Fluoride?
Fluoride Update
Fluoride Update
How could fluoridation end in 2015 – let me count the ways.
By Paul Connett, PhD, Director of the Fluoride Action Network
1. The Peel (Ontario, Canada) lawsuit.
This case, being brought by citizens in the Peel district of Ontario, and being fought by one of Canada’s most prestigious law firms (Ruby Shiller Chan Hasan), has perhaps the best chance of any lawsuit to end fluoridation. Under the Canadian constitution the government does not have the right to force medication on it is citizens. Unlike theU.S.,local authorities do not have the “police powers”(see note 1 below) to override constitutional provisions. This lawsuit could end fluoridation in two ways.
A) If the case is won it would end fluoridation herewith. However, even if
B) the case makes it into court it would ring the death knell around the country.
Why? In the latter situation the proponents will have to have their expert witnesses cross-examined under oath. When this happens the “authority” of local Medical Officers of Health (MOH), which currently bedazzles local councils, will melt away. Currently these MOH are forced to do the bidding of Health Canada with little independent thought or analysis. Under cross-examination it will become abundantly clear that they simply do not have the science to back either their claims for safety or effectiveness. Once the assumed “authority” of these experts is exposed for what it is then local councils will be forced to review the science and arguments of opponents of fluoridation on their merits and not simply dismiss them out of hand.
Needless to say if fluoridation ends in Canada it will have a huge impact on the US and other English speaking countries.
