Letters/Initiatives - Health
Writing formal letters isn't everyone's favourite pastime. For most of us, it is a lot of work, and our busy lives interfere with good intentions. Even when written, letters on this topic more often than not seem to fall on deaf ears, or result in a formulaic response and nothing more. A frustrating process. Group initiatives are even harder to organize.
Yet voices are necessary if any kind of progress can be made, with anything. Informative conversations, and letters to physicians, caregivers, community members, industry and government authorities, can all help to raise awareness about the biological health effects of electromagnetic fields and RF microwave radiation.
In this part of the CST website, we will attempt to present an ongoing collection of letters, articles and initiatives already undertaken that may serve as examples and springboards for others.
Hopefully, the more people hear and learn about the problem, and the more strategies and solutions are shared, the sooner we can work together to find relief and alternatives for those who are having difficulty coping in today's technological world.

Face to Face with Smart Meters (Parts 1 to 5)
Press Conference at Provincial Health Officer's Office and Conversations about the Smart Meter Issue
Here is the full slate of Face to Face with Smart Meters Parts 1 to 5. Part 5 includes the presentation of 160 scientific studies to Dr. Perry Kendall on May 9, 2012
Part 1: May 31, 2011
Starting as soon as this summer the BC government is going to put a powerful wireless transmitter ON YOUR HOUSE. At a cost of One Billion Dollars. For no good reason.
We talk to Walt McGinnis about the dangers of all wireless technology -- including the ability of Hydro and other hackers to invade your privacy by reading your meter output -- which will be linked to ALL of your electrical devices -- and data mining your usage habits. This will allow Hydro to bill you based on peak or low times and it will allow marketers to target you based on your data. They also discuss the intentional dismantling of BC Hydro, the lack of public consultation and education and, most important, the health impact of EMR on living organisms.
Part 2: June 29, 2011
Part 3: June 29, 2011
In this, our third episode with Walt McGinnis, co-chair of the Electromagnetic Radiation Health Alliance of British Columbia, we take on the corporate propaganda of Victoria's Times-Colonist. Recently, the T-C published three pages of glowing Smart Meter advertisement and misinformation. The interview concludes by debunking the so-called Provincial "Health" Officer Dr. Perry Kendall's remarks in one of the said T-C articles.
Part 4: February 18, 2012
Part 5: May 18, 2012
includes the personal delivery of 160 studies presented to Dr. Perry Kendall, our Provincial Health Officer, who has, even now, not responded.
Walt McGinnis gives us an update on what has been going on with the campaign to Stop Smart Meters in BC. Discussion includes and update of Dr. Kendall's current stance on the matter.
"This video features exclusive footage of a press conference and direct action that was held at Provincial Health Officer Perry Kendall's office on May 9, 2012. Over one hundred people hand-delivered 160 scientific studies to the receptionist at Dr. Kendall's office at the Ministry of Health.
"The program also features renowned Cellular Biophysicist Dr. Martin Blank who resoundingly and categorically informs the crowd that electro-magnetic radiation is damaging to cells and to DNA."
