We need to re-evaluate this. There are many fluoride-free countries now, and no increase in tooth decay in them. This is something we no longer need to be doing, given the potential for harm.

I assumed we in Nova Scotia were free of floride, but since discovering that we are not, I purchased a distiller to filter floride out of MY WATER. Since then my nails are not brittle for one thing. What else could I not detect that this poison affected? Please stop adding floride to Halifax water supply. Do your research.

I have visible dental fluorosis after having grown up in Dartmouth in the '80s. I avoid fluoride in all of my consumer purchases but cannot afford, nor to I think it a sustainable choice, to buy bottled water everyday. I do not support the fluoridation of the municipal water supply.

I have thyroid issues, skin rashes and arthritis, possibly due to fluoride being put in drinking water for no health reasons other than for dental.

Please remove flouride from Halifax water. It is toxic and ingesting it is harmful. Use flouride toothpaste if you wish but get it out of the water!

The time has come for Halifax Water to STOP intentionally poisoning its citizens.

Angela Spinazola

Take this Poison out!!!!

Arne Dusang

Not only a mass medication but some people are sensitive or allergic to fluoride. Up to 1% of the population. Thats a lot of people forced into consuming something they can't tolerate. Restaurants, coffee shops, cooking - its impossible to eliminate fluoridated water from one's diet unless you have bottled water at home and never venture out of the house.

Amber Power

Stop the poison in our water!

Shannon

Please remove this toxic chemical from our water. PLEASE!

Mark

It's about time

John Townsend

It is time for you to implement SAFE ALTERNATIVES to this deadly poison... Wake up!

Tammy MacDougall-Walker

There is no reason you can give that gives you the right to decide the care i need for my teeth. I don't believe that is why you really add flouride the water. If you really want to improve dental health and save the government and medical care money, make cigarettes illegal. If i get to decide whether or not to smoke, I should also get to decide whether or not to use flouride.

Rand

Get that fluoride out of the water!

Wayne Baillie

Just watched the East Brunswick debate from the Canadians Opposed to Fluoridation site...I am convinced it is not a good idea. The For side's argument boils down to : It is needed because people don't brush their teeth properly, and the ADA/AMA can't be wrong about such a longstanding practice

Ann Marie Donovan

We DO NOT want POISON in our drinking water!!!!!

Fiona T

I do no consent to consuming this medication. People are being illegally medicated. End it now.

Levine Mack

Thank you for doing this.

Cathy Wilson

Stop giving us Flouride!

Sandra Selva

I have been concerned about fluoridation for over 30 years and have written often to the Halifax council. I would really like to get more involved.

mark theriault

Beyond all the health concerns of consuming this toxin, the fact that it is added without consent is a human rights violation in my eyes. The bottom line is that if I were to choose to ingest this toxin I would purchase a supplement. I have no choice when drinking my local tap water. This is truely disgraceful given the research available.

Dorothy Ibrahim

My whole family has a thyroid Problem , we believe Floride is a contributing factor! Stop putting this in our water please!!!!

annette dusang

Stop fluoridation!!!!!

Savayda Jarone

I believe we deserve choice in this matter. Please remove it from the water supply and those who want it, can add it at home.

Tara Taylor

I prefer clean clear water... no additives... fluoride among other things added to our water is not needed...

bob dillman

I tried stopping this myself years ago and was laughed at .its about time.

Ashleigh Cluff

medication without proper care in dosage is irresponsible and dangerous. There are alternatives for cavity prevention that do not require forced ingestion of fluoride.

Michel Palmer

Fluoride in small doses in toothpaste is acceptable to help teeth , no to fluoride in all the water is abusive and not necessary and is being flushed down the drains into the water streams and bays. REMOVE it , NOW!!!

Stefan Crocket

Get this crap out of our water it's about time!!! No more poison!!!

Marie-Josée Rosconi

There is a reason when they ask elementary children not to swallow during treatment.

Lori

Please make 2017 the year to remove flouride from the HRM water so I can drink tap water!!

Kat Alyst

When I drink the tap water I just want to enjoy water not a neurotoxin chemical added there by some idiots.

susan brennan

Please remove fluoride from our drinking water in Halifax, Nova Scotia and be a role model for the rest of the province.

Anonymous

PLEASE remove fluoride from our water.

Janice Kelly

Why is this being added to the water? Wouldn't a Medical Officer know the hazards? Is someone getting kickbacks for this? Please look into the pros and cons.

Suzanne Jobb

With all the evidence against fluoride, it's criminal to continue to put this toxin in our water!

Laure

It is absolutely unethical that fluoride is added to our water. I care about my brain and body and it disgusts me that some ignorant person has made the decision for us that we have to drink poison on a daily basis or spend money on an expensive water filter that filters fluoride. We deserve to have a choice, we deserve safe water.

Anonymous

Fluoride intake should be a choice, not in our drinking water!

annette dusang

Stop fluoridation as it is toxin to the body, my daughter has crohn's and once she stopped drinking fluoride water has seen great improvements in her health! As fluoride destroys all good bacterial in the gut amount all the other negative side effects it causes!

Amands Russell

Stop adding toxic fluoride to our water!

Tammy Walker

I do not need nor want fluoride in my drinking water. Please turn the spigot off.

Jon Taylor

No Fluoride!

Mary Jopling

Stop adding fluoride to the water

Roman Husiuk

No more Fluoride, No More FLUORIDE, NO MORE FLUORIDE!!!

Brandon Harper

I support that flouride should NOT be added to the Halifax Regional Municipality's water supply.

Geoffrey Howard

Fluoride is poison

Carolyn Pineau

Please stop adding this poisonous chemical to our water!!!!

Kimberly McNeil

I've been looking into this for a while. I am not a conspiracy advocate but , I have lived in Halifax all my life and I've seen so many people with illnesses contributing to fluoride and it's ridiculous. I'm not a a conspiracy theorist, but we're seeing the effects. We are seeing Chemtrails in our skies and it's all the government's doing .They want it that way so big Corporations can make money through health care. WHERE DID CANADA GO????
