Fluoride in Tap Water in Canada

As with many chemical additives in the modern world, however, few people know much about it.

Many are surprised to learn that unlike the pharmaceutical grade fluoride in their toothpaste, the fluoride in their water is an untreated industrial waste product, one that contains trace elements of arsenic and lead. Without the phosphate industry’s effluent, water fluoridation would be prohibitively expensive. And without fluoridation, the phosphate industry would be stuck with an expensive waste disposal problem. 

Do you guys know where water fluoridation started? In the death camps in WWII."

Aluminium fluoride is an important additive for the production of aluminium by electrolysis. Together with cryolite, it lowers the melting point to below 1000 °C and increases the conductivity of the solution. It is into this molten salt that aluminium oxide is dissolved and then electrolyzed to give bulk Al metal.

Exposure may cause bronchitis to develop with coughing, phlegm, and/or shortness of breath. ► Aluminum Fluoride may cause an asthma-like allergy.

Continued exposure to high levels of fluoride can cause a rare condition called skeletal fluorosis, which is caused by an accumulation of fluoride in the body.

What countries do not use fluoride?

On the international front, most of the west European countries have rejected water fluoridation including Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, and Switzerland.

Fluoride pollution in the environment has been linked to the die off and injury of bees.

The Nazis put fluoride in water to pacify Jews during World War II, a local resident told members of the Pinellas County Commission on Oct. 4, 2011, before the commission voted 4-3 vote to stop fluoridating water for about 700,000 residents.

It IS what they used to dull their brains!! They used it in the concentration camps. It was in the concentration camps that they also developed many anti-psychotics."

"History shows, actually, that in Nazi Germany, one of the first things that they did was add fluoride to the water in the ghettos where the Jews stayed," Matt Leffler of Clearwater said.

How to remove fluoride from drinking water. Fluoride can be removed from drinking water through reverse osmosis, distillation, activated alumina filters, and bone char carbon filters.

Use a water filter, and a third of your fluoride problems vanish. Avoid fluoridated products. The next step to avoid poisoning yourself and your family with fluoride is to avoid products like toothpaste, mouthwash and other fluoridated dental products

How much fluoride is added to tap water?

between 0.7 and 1.2 mg/L

Since when?

Starting in 1962, the United States Public Health Service (PHS) recommended that public water supplies contain between 0.7 and 1.2 mg/L of fluoride to help "prevent tooth decay".Nov 18, 2022

The provinces with the highest rates of water fluoridation are Ontario, Alberta and Manitoba while the provinces with the lowest rates are British Columbia 

In Ontario 73% of tap water is floridated.

To pacify peoples?

Is Ontario water fluoridated?

Water fluoridation takes place for the South Peel drinking water supply. South Peel includes Brampton, Mississauga, and southern parts of Caledon including Bolton and Mayfield West. The amount of fluoride in drinking water is regulated by the Ontario government.

Ontario was one of the first places in the world to introduce CWF as a public health initiative to reduce tooth decay. The first Canadian community water fluoridation trials began in Brantford, Ontario in 1945.

What cities in Canada do not have fluoride in their water?

Water is still not fluoridated in several large cities, including Vancouver, Montreal and Quebec City, as well as in many smaller communities As shown in figure 1, water fluoridation remains almost non-existent in Quebec, British Columbia, New Brunswick and Newfoundland and Labrador.

Quebec City voted last year to shut off its fluoride taps, while Dorval, Que., reintroduced fluoridated water after a five-year hiatus. Edmonton opted in July to lower fluoride levels; months earlier, Calgary rejected a motion to do away with the additive. In British Columbia, anti-fluoride activists in Prince George are ramping up their attacks, following the lead of Vancouver, which eschews fluoridation. And in Ontario, Waterloo has set the stage for a plebiscite in 2010 that threatens to make fluoride a high-priority election issue.
