Fluoride - Final Submissions Due Fri., Nov. 27, 2009
CategoriesFinal submissions to the Canadian Drinking Water Secretariat (water_eau@hc-sc.gc.ca) are due this Friday, November 27, 2009. Please consider submitting a response to this document.
The well-known requirements of science are not sufficiently fulfilled in this document:
- omission of citations for claims, (e.g., conflicting claims in the English and French translations had no citation to verify which claim was correct);
- omissions of research which do not support conclusions, including research by panel members selected to do this review;
- a review panel was chosen with conflicts of interest, and who demonstrate a lack of expertise in artificial water fluoridation;
- misrepresentation the National Research Council Review 2006;
- use of a double standard for claims of benefits and claims of harm whereby poor quality science demonstrating efficacy is accepted uncritically whereas claims of harm are dismissed if the evidence is not of the highest quality.
Any of the following peer-reviewed responses to the CDW secretariat are available for you to submit in whole or in part.

Chemical companies are seeking, in the U.S., non-regulated status for genetically engineered grass.

Farmers use it between crops to kill off all other plant growth on their fields. You may have heard of RoundUp Ready (Genetically engineered) soybeans and the... [read more]
