Hi everyone,
I’ve called CBC and left a message for Ionna Roumeliotis asking her to return my call. I commented on the great job she did on the WiFi segment last night on the National. I’m going to post comments on her website today for the TalkBack show tonight. Here is her e-mail address, as I don’t know if she is checking all of the comments on the CBC comment section. She may well be, but I thought having her direct e-mail would be better. CBC wouldn’t release her number, but hopefully I’ll have that later today. ionnarou...@cbc.ca . I don’t know if the e-mail is case sensitive, but likely not.

Sharon and others,
I just received an email from Ioanna Roumeliotis, who did the special report on WiFi in Schools last night on CBC The National.
This is what she sent to me.
_____
From Ioanna: "I am doing a talkback tonight as a follow up to our report. If there is ANY news on your end, please let me know."
_____
The more people who respond to the special the better. Please consider commenting (via email or phone) on the show and sharing your experiences. They are likely to read the shorter, focused comments on the talkback.

I believe that now is the time to get on the provinces to take action. WiFi is not in federal jurisdicition so we should not give Health Can. authority over it by deferring to them. The province has fully responsibility for health and schools. If they can, I'm sure BC Govt. will do what Ont. Govt. is doing and push Ottawa to do something. We all know what they will do -- more studies. We don't need more studies because the evidence is clear, especially in the 1999 Royal Society Report. Studies will grant the industry more time, and the conclusions will be biased, just as with the Interphone Study.
What we need know is a petition drive, public meetings, picketing at schools and school boards, media coverage across the country. I am very concerned that when Krewski says Health Can. needs to look at this that it will give the momentum away.
