Problems in the race for Mayor?
I want to start off by saying that I don't support any of the candidates as of this point. In the process of doing some research on all of the candidates for the mayor Brantford, I have come across some startling information.
This information is about one candidate, Chris Friel. I will start in the beginning.
I added Chris on Facebook last spring. We were able to have some good conversations about Freemason and other secret societies symbolism in our city. When he announced that he would be running for mayor, I noticed that he is employeed by a large pharmaceutical company named ACIC Fine Chemicals / Methapharm. There website can be found here: ACIC.
So me being me, I made a comment about that. The response I received from Chris, was that he was very upset that I would bring that up and that I knew nothing about it. I asked him to clarify it for me through email or with an in person interview. I have still not received a response to that. Then a friend of mine Tim Moorly (who has had extensive issue's with big pharma) started to make comments about his company. Chris then sent me an email accusing Tim and myself of harassment.
I decided to back off until I had done some more research.
Fast forward to September, I was given a conversation between a friend and Chris.
In this conversation Chris is very elusive and tries several times to change the topic. What bothered me the most is how quickly he label it all conspiracy theory, that is was a federal matter and not a mayor's, and to see what the other candidates think about it.
Here is that conversation:

Neither of the issue you continue to post about are municipal issues. If you have a concern regarding these issues you should contact your federal or provincial representatives.
Neither of these issues are issues I am willing to discuss on my fanpage, I'm sorry if that means you can't support me, but I won't change my stance on these non-municipal issues.

im sorry you feel that way .. protecting the city you claim to love is not a federal issue otherwise that would not have a mayor position

You don't know enough about me well enough to question my commitment to my community. I don't agree with your concerns, this doesn't mean that I am not committed; it means I am committed to the things I can do something about. You are free to remove your fanpage membership

but you could do something my friend you are aware and know the truth about these issues everyone does even the regualr joes now ... if we cant look to our mayor for help maybe your not ready for the job ... that saddens me very much
Chris Friel September 16 at 2:31pm Report
You clearly don't understand the role of a Mayor. There are so many important issues that need to be addressed -- affordable housing, poverty issues, better paying jobs, the waterfront, building relationships. This is what a Mayor should spend time on. Feel free to investigate the other candidates and see if anyone is interested in your causes.

You saying I am not a good man because I don't agree with you? I care about people not conspiracy theory, I work to make people's lives better and that is better accomplished focusing on their needs and issues. Don't you dare question me as a good man -- you have no right to pass judgement on others. Please just remove yourself from the fanpage and I will remove you as a friend contact.

I do help the people of Brantford, in real constructive and real time ways. making sure a child has food in his or her belly every morning is way more important that worrying about something that I have no ability to influence...feed a child, you will actually accomplish something

I don't know what you are talking about...it saddens me that you live in such a place where theory is more important than children. You have no concept of what a Mayor does, please just stop sending me these messages.

After seeing how he seemingly has no concern about the toughts and issue's of many people in our city, I started my research back up.
Very quickly I found a large problem. According to his Facebook fan page his employeer as I said before is ACIC Fine Chemicals / Methapharm. It also gives his position with the company. Director of Corporate Development, and the job description is: Oversee Human Resources, Corporate Strategy, Facility and IT Services.
OK big deal right? Now look at his economic platform from his site: friel.ca/platform/.
Economically Diverse
Brantford must reinvent its economy to reflect the changes in our society. We need to diversify our economy and focus on higher paying jobs that people can use to buy a house and raise a family.
Brantford will:
•Look to new economic sectors like green technology and the pharmaceutical industry;
•Tie our post-secondary initiatives to the new economy and seek new relationships and benefits for the future;
•Eliminate existing barriers and forge new relationships with the County of Brant and Six Nations, so that we all benefit from economic growth and prosperity.
So lets get this straight.. A Director of Corporate Development from a Big Pharma company wants to become mayor (for a second time) and expand the green technology and the pharmaceutical industry. He also does not like anyone to ask about it, or any other real issues.
Are we really going to just sit back and keep taking this corporate control of our community? This one campaign alone has a huge conflict of interest, and out right refusals to answer questions! He says that what is in our water and air is a federal matter? Oh yeah and don't forget the North American Union. Even though it has been covered on countless main stream media outlets, and Brantford is already feeling the heavy effects of NAFTA (the ground work for the NAU), its just crazy talk right? And has no impact on the poverty situation (you know people having jobs wouldn't have any effect at all would it).
But where is Brantford's main stream media on topics like this? Buried under corporate control of coarse.
It is time to say enough is enough!! Ask questions and demand answers!
A histoy of water fluoridation in Brantford
Brantford was the third city in the world to artificially fluoridate there public water supply. The test phase began in 1945.
According to the Brantford Expositor archives there is two articles posted about water fluoridation in 1945.
The first was on January 17th 1945, titled: "Fluorine Plans Are Advanced"
This article explains that the fluorine committee had been formed. With C. C. Cariss as the as the chairman, Dr. F. J. Wentworth as Vice chairman, and city clerk E. J. Campbell as secretary.
It then goes on to say that fluoride has very large dental benefits, as well as having a positive effect on hearing.
The second article was posted on September 26th 1945, titled: "Brantford Now Adding Fluorine to city water"
Here is the first section of the article.
"Pioneering in a new field of public health. The city of Brantford is the first municipality in Canada to add fluorine to the public water supply, as a means of improving the dental health of the community.
The public utilities commission disclosed today that fluorine has been added to the water for a period of three months, without any notification to the public, and there has been no public reaction. Not one complaint has been received of any "taste" or any difference since the fluorination project started last June."
It then goes on to say that the commission decided that fluorine had been given a fair trial without publicity, and it was now time to inform the public.
The fluorine project is a long range plan which will require a number of years to prove or disprove its value as an aid to dental health.
I looked for follow up studies about water fluoridation in Brantford or Brant county. I have been unable to find a single one. I spoke to several people in the public utilities commission, but none of them knew of any, and they did not even know when water fluoridation had started. There is no Brantford Expositor archives to any follow up testing either.
I also did extensive research into who the people on the fluorine committee where. Once again to my surprise there are next to no records of these people. I was able to come up with some marriage certificates but nothing past that. Although while I was researching these men, I came across a huge conflict of interest.
J. P. Ryan served as an alderman from 1932 - 1940, and as mayor from 1940 - 1945. He resigned within two months after water fluoridation became public. From 1932 until 1949 (the time of his death) he sat on the Brantford hospital and medical boards, as well as being the chairman of the Industrial board.
Thats right chairman of the Indutrial board (Source of the sodium fluoride) and the medical board (where they have promoted it as healthy for 65 years). How is that for a conflict of interest?
With this being the case, I decided to speak to our medical officer of health Dr. Lock. When he did not return my many phone calls, I went straight into his office to speak with him. He told me that fluoride is a natural occurring substance (which is a lie), and that he supports the practice of water fluoridation. For the poor people in the community that cannot afford toothpaste.
After that we went to city council and requested that a vote be held. So that the public could decide for themselves. This request was denied.
So lets get this straight.
Water fluoridation began in Brantford in the year 1945, with a requirement of further testing. No further testing has been done.
The people responsible for starting the project did so without any public input, and even though the CDC hails water fluoridation as one of the top 20 achievements of the 20th century. These people are not added to the history books.
The mayor at the time had a very large conflict of interest in the matter.
We have a head medical officer who is ignorant to the facts of fluoride, or has a reason to be lying about it. And also uses a bogus reason for supporting the practice.
We have a city council that will not allow the people of Brantford to vote on the issue.
This is why we need the people to stand up and demand justice! We Are Change Brantford has been working on our petition, under the Ontario fluoridation act a petition with 10% of the populations signatures can force a vote.
If you are interested in helping out, or signing the petition please contact us at wearechangebrant@live.ca
There is poson in the tap water
We Are Change Brantford has kicked off there poison in the tap water campaign. We were lucky enough to recieve a large amount of flyers, Thanks to all of our supporters! Here is two of the many to come video's of us painting the town yellow and letting people know that sodium fluoride is a harmful toxic waste.
Harper government monitoring online chats about politics
OTTAWA (NEWS1130) - The Harper government has been monitoring political messages online, and even correcting what it considers misinformation. One local expert says the government is taking things too far.
Under the pilot program the Harper government paid a media company $75,000 to monitor and respond to online postings about the east coast seal hunt.
UBC Computer Science professor and President of the BC Freedom of Information and Privacy Association, Richard Rosenberg, says it seems unnecessary for the government to be going this far. "The government has a lot of power, that it feels the need to monitor public bulletin boards, or places where people express views and then to respond to that, seems to me going beyond a reasonable action the government should be taking."
Rosenberg says knowing that the government is monitoring certain topics online could result in people being more careful with their identities when they're posting about political issues on the internet.
He says it's the first time he's heard of this happening in Canada.

Computers that read minds are being developed by Intel
Unlike current brain-controlled computers, which require users to imagine making physical movements to control a cursor on a screen, the new technology will be capable of directly interpreting words as they are thought.
Intel's scientists are creating detailed maps of the activity in the brain for individual words which can then be matched against the brain activity of someone using the computer, allowing the machine to determine the word they are thinking.
Preliminary tests of the system have shown that the computer can work out words by looking at similar brain patterns and looking for key differences that suggest what the word might be.
Dean Pomerleau, a senior researcher at Intel Laboratories, said that currently, the devices required to get sufficient detail of brain activity were bulky, expensive magnetic resonance scanners, like those used in hospitals.
But he said work was under way to produce smaller pieces of equipment that can be worn as headsets and that can produce the same level of detail.
He said: "The computer uses a form of 20 questions to narrow down what the word is.
"So a noun with a physical property such as spade, which you dig with, produces activity in the motor cortex of the brain, as this is the area that controls physical movements.
"A food related word like apple, however, produces activity in those parts of the brain related to hunger. So the computer can infer attributes to each word being thought about and this lets the computer zero down on what the word is pretty quickly.
"We are currently mapping out the activity that an average brain produces when thinking about different words. It means you'll be able to write letters, open emails or do Google searches just by thinking".
Intel already have a working prototype that can detect words such as "screwdriver", "house" and "barn", by measuring around 20,000 points in the brain.
But as brain scanning technology becomes more sophisticated the computer's ability to distinguish thoughts will improve.
Justin Ratner, director of Intel Laboratories and the company's chief technology officer, said: "Mind reading is the ultimate user interface. There will be concerns about privacy with this sort of thing and we will have to overcome them.
"What is clear though is that humans are not restricted any more to just using keyboards and mice".
