1) A workshop occurred early Tuesday morning here in PST zone, one devoted to discussing the proliferation of EMF, especially with the spread of 5G. Dr. Marc Arazi was one of the attendees. Videos of the workshop have been provided in English and Jean Hudon has summarized them well on his facebook page. I haven’t had the time to watch the long versions yet, but the short video is very interesting, especially the last few minutes where Michele Rivasi, who helped organize this meeting, blasts those supporting and hiding behind ICNIRP and those who allowed 5G to proceed without determining its safety or need.
IMPORTANT WORKSHOP YESTERDAY AT THE EU ON THE HEALTH IMPACTS OF ELECTROMAGNETIC CONTAMINATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT
“Europeans for Safe Connections (ESC) is a coalition of national and international organisations that are aware of adverse consequences of the modern communication technologies. ESC members develop proposals to arrive at a safer use of wireless telecommunication technologies, limiting radio frequency and microwave exposure as low as it is reasonable, at the level of individuals as well as the society, and the natural environment, flora and fauna.”

2) Customers were told that smeters would reduce costs and provide benefits, but any cost reductions appear to have been appreciated by the utilities and not the customers. In fact, the ongoing costs of smeters, which have a very short life-expectancy, will keep rates high. Data sharing is being promoted as the way for customers to realize benefits. But at what price?
(click on photos to enlarge)
97% of smart meters fail to provide promised customer benefits. Can $3B in new funding change that?
“Less than 3% of 2009’s taxpayer- and ratepayer-funded smart meters now deliver full customer benefits, a recent study shows.
With current technologies and privacy and security concerns, “real-time is a rabbit hole” and “we don’t promote it,” responded FCU’s Phelan. Historic data is available through FCU’s web portal, and the utility recognizes customers right to their real time data, he said….
HCE’s aggressive development of distributed resources might soon make dynamic price signals more important for system peak demand management, which is why it is building “a fiber optic distribution network,” Hannegan said. When utilities like HCE need customer or third-party responses in real-time, they may prefer to use their own smart networks, he said.”

Re. “Surveyors” working for BC Hydro and my request for info about similar events. I will share with you as I get them. I have had a couple of other responses but they didn’t include the areas of the province. Please give this information when you email me.
“They were doing this here in our area in Sahtlam months ago. I spoke with one of the surveyors. He said they were surveying for BC Hydro, assessing something to do with the hydro pole positioning.
Of course… who knows!”
