More fake fluoride news from the Brampton Guardian
A new article from Roger Belgrave at the Brampton Guardian.
Peel Region reports fluoride added to water supply lowered by .05 mg/L. Anti-fluoride lobbyists still raise health concerns.
The headline looks promising but the article is full of nonsense. At least he published my position that THERE IS NO “STANDARD” THAT “ALLOWS” FOR WATER FLUORIDATION… but tried to undercut it with a lame quote from the MOECC.
Further below I have pasted the comments that I made on this article on the Guardian’s website.
Please chime in, if possible, letting the Guardian and Region know that you do not consent to being treated with the Region’s fake fluoride drug and are not buying into the misinformation.
Yours for Safe Water,

My comments on the article:
“The provincial standard provided by the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change recommends a 
range of 0.5 mg/L to 0.8 mg/L”. Can we please give this up already? There is no “standard” from the MOECC or any other Ministry that allows for the addition of fluoride to a large drinking water system for the purpose of preventing cavities. None. The MOECC has confirmed this for me, and I forwarded the emails to Dr. Loh and everyone else at the Region involved in this ridiculous scheme back in April, as well as Roger Belgrave (who published a blatantly false article stating that the new target level is 0.5ppm on March 9th and has taken 4 full months to correct it, without drawing any attention whatsoever to his error).
“When media contacted the same official, he was much less definitive on the issue of standards.” Roger Belgrave, did you ask Satish Deshpande point blank whether or not any “standard” allows for adding fluoride to drinking water to prevent cavities? My guess is that no, you did not, thereby leaving yourself wiggle-room to print this misleading quote and continue confusing and misleading the public and distract from your own false fluoride article of March 9th. Ask Satish point blank and you will get the same reply I did, because there is no such standard. If I am wrong and one exists, name it. The technical document and the protocol for monitoring fluoride levels do not contain any such “standard”.
“Operationally, he added, a range of 0.5 mg/L to 0.8 mg/L is allowable under the Ministry of the Environment and Climate Change’s Technical Support Document for Ontario Drinking Water Standards, Objectives and Guidelines ” – a blatant lie from Dr. Loh. The MOECC stated the obvious in an email to me: “The short answer to your question is that there is no legal provincial standard to add fluoride to the drinking water within the 0.5-0.8 mg/L range. Our “Technical Support Document for Ontario Drinking Water Standards, Objectives and Guidelines” does recommend a range but we rely on the drinking water system to set the level for fluoride addition.” A “recommendation” is not a legal standard, and it does not “allow” for anything.
Further, pg 1 of the MOECC’s Technical Support Document for Ontario Drinking Water Standards, Objectives and Guidelines states: “Standards, objectives and guidelines are considered to be the minimum level of drinking-water quality and in no way should be regarded as implying that allowing the degradation of a high quality water supply to the specified level or range is acceptable.” Fluoridation illegally degrades drinking water quality by adding at least 3 potent regulated water contaminants: tooth-damaging fluoride, arsenic and lead.
The purpose of the Protocol for the Monitoring of Community Water Fluoride Levels is “to provide direction to boards of health in monitoring community water fluoride levels and taking specific action in accordance with the level of fluoride in the water.” It refers to an alleged (unproven) “therapeutic range (TR) of 0.6 to 0.8 ppm”. It does not even “recommend” that fluoride be added to drinking water, let alone contain a “standard” that allows any specific range for the reduction of cavities. THERE IS NO SUCH STANDARD.
O. Reg. 169/03: ONTARIO DRINKING WATER QUALITY STANDARDS is the only set of drinking water standards for large municipal systems and it does not say anything about adding fluoride to water to prevent cavities.
That this issue is even still on the table is a disgrace. Council formally admitted months ago in a motion and a letter to the Premier and Health Minister that they have no idea whether HFSA in tap water prevents cavities and there are no toxicology studies on their F chemical. They know they are harming children’s teeth (causing permanent hypo-mineralization from overexposure to fluoride during tooth development resulting in white patches or brown spots and pitting)… in the name of oral health. One in 3 (34%) seven year olds sampled in the Region’s 2007 study had dental fluorosis. 4% of Peel kids had moderate or severe dental fluorosis in the Region’s 2003 oral health report. And this is just the tip of the iceburg of harm.
