Canada BC - Fluoride Officially A Thing Of The Past

Fluoride Officially A Thing Of The Past

Posted by: Cheryl Jahn December 15, 2014

As per the results of a referendum, fluoride in the drinking water will be a thing of the past. Council voted in favour of its removal, although not all agreed with the concept. The question of fluoride in the drinking water was a referendum question added to the ballot during the civic election on December 1st. Nearly 54% of voters opted to have fluoride removed. However, because of a legislative quirk, the results of the of tat referendum would not be binding on Council. Each Councillor agreed, it would be foolhardy to vote against the wishes of the electorate. The equipment will be removed completely from its current location.
