WENDY WALKS FOR ES (ELECTRO-SENSITIVITY)September 2012
In light of the proliferation of Electro-magnetic Radiation (EMR) in our environment (such as those emitted from cell towers, ‘smartmetres’ and wi-fi) which have
not been proven safe, we, the undersigned, do hereby Petition Mr. Stephen Harper, Prime Minister of Canada, the Members of Parliament; the Federal and
Provincial Minister and Ministry of Health, the Minister and Ministry of Industry and the Minister and Ministry of Natural Resources to:
1) Prevent Involuntary Exposure to electro-magnetic radio frequency. IE: smart meters on homes, wi-fi in schools and hospitals, etc
2) Provide White Zones for Persons with ES and Those Not Wishing to be Exposed - Develop a template for the identification of White Zones (low RF areas) and
implement the designation of such residential areas to the Canadian Land Use Code. IE: Port Franks Ontario and its adjoining lakeside communities’ natural shielding
geography comprised of eco-sensitive Carolinian forests makes it a great location for a White Zone. A history making motion brought forward by Councilor John Russell
was passed by the Municipality of Lambton shores, requesting staff research and report in consideration of creating a 'white zone' in the hamlet of Port Franks.
3) Reduce Emission Levels - Adopt, Establish and Enforce regulations limiting the amount of electromagnetic radiation emissions from electronic devices and
infrastructure in developed and natural environments.
4) Allow Municipalities to have the Final Say - Legislate Industry Canada to adhere to Municipal protocols and Provincial laws for land use regarding all antenna
siting; no exclusion, no exceptions. Where there are no pre-existing Municipal protocols, the default process shall be based on the most stringent Municipal protocols
registered at the time. Additional protections for natural areas, endangered species/ species at risk and children must be given.
5) Require Transparency and Escape Clauses for Telecommunications Contracts - Contracts must be made open for public scrutiny and protection. Escape clauses
must be built into Telecom/Land Owner Contracts which is concurrent with the same time period as the public consultation response process to protect land owners.
