Letter: I support Cheropita’s questions on 5G technology

The following letter was sent to NOTL town and regional councillors and a copy was submitted to The Lake Report.

Dear councillors:

After reading the headline in the Dec. 3 Lake Report, (“NOTL councillor pushes debunked claims about 5G health effects”), I felt compelled to write my support for Coun. Wendy Cheropita and her motion to get council to explore the latest technology being rolled out (ie. 5G).

I am grateful that council listened to her arguments thoughtfully and didn't immediately dismiss her information as debunked (it is not so, by many scientists).

It was disappointing to find out that she was short one vote to get the issue discussed more thoroughly. We live in times where rapid technological development is often pushed upon citizens and, sadly, the long-term effects are barely investigated. 

Politicians are beholden to the people and we expect that you take the time to do adequate research (beyond biased mainstream sources).

For example, I am linking the latest research questioning the rollout of the polymerase chain reaction test globally for COVID-19. It very sobering to think that many of the political decisions were based on this flawed technology. 

We can't be so naive to think that every development, and every billionaire foundation that funds it, has the best interests of the average citizen at the heart of their decisions. We didn't vote them into power — we have voted for you.

In these polarized times, standing up and questioning the dominant narrative is an act of bravery, as your reputation can be quickly sullied, as The Lake Report article attests to. 

Thank you, Wendy, for your courage and integrity. You will always get my vote.
