Province Moves To Endorse Fluoridation Using 70 Year Old Junk Data

On November 27, 2014. MPP Bob Delaney of Mississauga-Streetsville presented a motion for the province of Ontario to fully endorse water fluoridation.

Mr. Delaney started his presentation by stating that he had looked into the anti fluoridation “junk science” that fringe candidates had been promoting during election campaigns. Also that he met with dental professionals from the Halton and Peel regions over the summer (which is important and will be explained).

I wonder if the Harvard University study showing that fluoride exposure lowers IQ of children, was part of the junk science he reviewed in the summer? Or if the study published in the Lancet medical journal calling fluoride a neurotoxin and that it is part of a Brain Damage Pandemic was also part of that junk science?

Mr. Delaney then goes on to explain what naturally occurring fluoride (calcium fluoride) is. There is only one problem, calcium fluoride is not what is being used in fluoridation programs. Hydrofluorosilicic acid, a known hazardous waste product is being used to fluoridate water. This chemical does not even have one single study proving that it is safe for human consumption. (after I present Hamilton city council with a petition to remove the chemical, they responded by asking Health Canada to provide safety studies on it. Here we are nearly 3 years later and still waiting)

He then goes on to explain that they are “doing something right” and that water fluoridation is saving children from tooth decay. Despite statistics Canada information showing the exact opposite. (theglobeandmail.com: Flouridation may not do much for cavities

After going on about his childhood and experiences of tooth decay, Mr. Delaney then brings up the cities of Stratford, Ont. and Brantford, Ont. For anyone who has not researched the history of fluoridation in Canada, this would be meaningless. But the reality is that he is referring to the original fluoridation trials for the country. That took place in 1945.

The 1945 studies where conducted with 3 control cities. Stratford, Ont. with naturally occurring fluoride (calcium fluoride) in the water, Sarnia, Ont. with no fluoride, and Brantford, Ont. with artificial fluoride.

The studies conlcuded 10 years later, and hailed artificial fluoridation as a huge success. Claiming that tooth decay rates had been lowered by as much as 60% in Brantford.

In 1959 a peer reviewed report on the studies was published by Dr. Philip Sutton, titled: Fluoridation Errors And Omissions In Experimental Trails.

Dr. Sutton found that the studies included:

- Inappropriate experimental and statistical methods
- Failure to consider random variation, examiner variability, and examiner bias
- Omissions of relevant data
- Mathematical errors
- Misleading comments
- Many of the reports during the trail where either doubtful or non existent

After Mr. Delaney stepped down, MPP after MPP showed support. Including Hamilton mountain MPP Monique Taylor.

Taylor made the claim that “Many people of this province cannot even afford a tube of toothpaste” and implied that this is why we need fluoridation. This claim is flat out outragious! Toothpaste is sold at dollar stores and is even given out at food banks.

The promotion of these down right silly talking points is not happening by chance. Mr. Delaney brought this motion forth this motion after meeting with officials from Halton and Peel regions. Both of which have been the center of heavy debate about fluoridation. The region of Halton recently voted to keep fluoridating with a council vote that was victorious by one vote.

The region of Peel was recently warned about having legal action taken against them. Below is my coverage of that.

Officials from both regions have decided to go to the provincial government to “endorse” the fluoridation programs, rather than listen to the people and/or even lawyers.

Fluoridation programs are falling apart and as they do, we can expect to see more of these types of actions. Pro fluoride campaigns are built on endorsements by governing bodies instead of science. They are built on demonizing “fringe” candidates, they are built on attempts to demonize anyone speaking out about it.

    The thing is about this chemical called fluoride and I am not talking about the natural sources is that it is a slow poison in that it takes time to accumulate in your body.I mean one drink of this poison is not enough.A lot of people who say it is safe need to do some research on this topic to get an idea before they make claims that it poses no problem.The toothpaste has the same chemical as in the city of Toronto water supply.As well someone said chlorine is safe in the water supply but it is not safe at all.Chlorine kills all the good bacteria in your digestive tract and again one drink would not be enough you have to drink some before it has an affect on you.This chemical is also in the city of Toronto water supply.

    This MPP may simply be a dupe for the phosphate industry by helping them dispose of their industrial waste in the drinking water of Ontario citizens, at a cost, of course. Mental midgets are totally oblivious to reality. In this case, he has not read or comprehended the preponderance of data by reputable universities with regard to the hazards posed by forcing people to ingest industrial poisons.
    Fluoride has been used as an active medication ( used to treat hyperthyroidism) and requires a prescription. It is an insecticide. The US uses fluoride to spray fruits and vegetables to kill insect manifestations. Those products are shipped to Canada via NAFTA. No mention of disease processes caused by migration of fluoride to bone structures. Things such as fluorosis, osteoporosis, and bladder stones are just a few of the detrimental affects of fluoridation. Guess he does not bother to understand the implications in developmental disorders such as ADD or ADHD. This MPP is about as credible with his nonsense as the government in Quebec when they kept exporting asbestos, a known carcinogen. |Someone in the Quebec government was finally overcome with common sense in 2012 and put an end to that foolishness. This character would like to turn all Ontario residents into mini toxic waste dumps.

  3. This is a CHEMICAL WASTE PRODUCT FROM A FACTORY they call it “Fluoride”. It has NOTHING to do with “Natural Fluoride” in the environment. I can RENAME MY URINE to VITAMIN C. That does not make my urine vitamin C. #JunkScience

  4. One need only check the material safety data sheet on fluoride to see that it is a deadly poison.

  5. I am astounded, although I should not be, at the mind-numbing stupidity of this MPP reading his prepared script. To know that there is such a concerted effort to keep the people of Halton-Peel sick and dumbed down by the addition of hydrofluorocilicic acid to our drinking water is deplorable. All MPPs and dental professionals should be ashamed of themselves for being so gullible and for not knowing the difference between fluoride, fluorine and hydrofluorocilicic acid.
