Canada - "is it necessary to continue adding fluoride to our drinking water?"
Carman's Deputy Mayor has asked the question, "is it necessary to continue adding fluoride to our drinking water?"
Jane Swanton says she became curious after hearing other communities no longer do so. She adds they are looking into the issue further, finding out if this is just from habit or if the benefit is still needed in the community. Swanton notes the fluoride levels currently added to Carman's drinking water are not harmful to anyone, but are in addition to the fluoride we already find in our toothpastes and mouthwash products.
She tells us the Pembina Valley Water Co-op in Stephenfield also recently reviewed the practice and decided to continue adding fluoride. Swanton points out Carman Town Council will make a decision once more information is collected.
