Fluoride in our Drinking Water
The subject of fluoride being added to our water has come up again in the local paper and if council passes the legislation this year it will be added mid 2018.
Fluoride is a drug and we should not be medicated against our will through our drinking water. Chronic intake actually has a detrimental effect on tooth enamel and to bones causing among other things, mottled teeth, brittle bones and joint pain. It negatively effects the thyroid gland and can cause permanent damage to the digestive system and nervous system. Even if it's in trace amounts, it accumulates in the body, we cannot filter it out easily and some people drink a lot of water because it is supposed to be good for us. We should be entitled to uncontaminated drinking water. To see how toxic it is, just look up the Material Safety Data Sheet for Sodium Fluoride. An extract is attached. Just wondering what other locals think about it.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.6% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
24.8% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.7% ... It is complicated
