1) A follow-up to the article I shared in the Feb.17 update ( “The assumption of safety is being used to justify the rollout of 5G technologies.”) from some Australian friends. Regardless of the “generation”, whether 2G, 3G, 4G or 5G, there has never been proof that exposure to wireless radiation is safe. To the contrary, the vast majority of studies for many years has proven it is not safe. That hasn’t stopped WHO, ICNIRP, Health Canada, the Cancer Society and the industry from trying to convince the general public that there is no real basis for concern.
5G – who says it’s safe??
“The authors used the ORSAA database* to identify and examine 295 studies on 5G millimetre waves and determine what effects they found, if any. The results showed that the majority of the studies did show bioeffects which can lead to downstream effects on the body.
‘The overall picture emerging from the existing knowledge base suggests a range of biological effects, some with strong evidence (>90% of studies), that may have potential health implications,’ the authors concluded.”

2) A public meeting in Sorrento this Thursday. Full information is here:
Please, regardless of whether you are in this area or not, if you can attend please do. We are all in this battle together, we are all “stakeholders”. A victory for one is a victory for all threatened by the industry and ISED.
FEBRUARY 23, 2023 IS A BIG DAY IN SORRENTO
RE: 5G TOWER IN SORRENTO
To review: We had a small micro win – an extension on this tower from January 13th to March 2nd for public comment. At this time we were given Thursday February 23, 2023 for a virtual town hall. After being given the extension, we were denied the original January 19th meeting at CSRD.
The community has decided to have an in person public meeting with all stakeholders invited to participate ON THURSDAY FEB 23rd, 2023. That includes you! This meeting will replace the digital “virtual” format promoted by Telus, which limits participation significantly.
3) The grid can’t handle the power needed for electric cars — what about all of the wireless devices to feed the internet of things, all using far more power than wired devices? Not to mention the energy-hogs that are the data centres to hold all of the data gathered via the IoT.

Expert says electric grid can’t stand pending demand
“A Carleton University professor said Canada’s electric grid cannot be prepared fast enough to handle the demands to be placed on it in pursuit of net zero carbon emissions.
In an interview with Western Standard, business professor Ian Lee said evidence for his stance abounds.
“Electricity Canada has actually said the grid is not ready for a three-fold increase, which will be needed if we completed the decarbonize as is proposed. So, it’s not just the risk of the grid going down, the cost is going to be enormous,” Lee said.”
