Jerry Flynn: Timeline of Radiation Limits and Corruption Wireless Radiation
From Jerry Flynn
Attayi, Daoud, Peng
CTIA – Cellular Telephone and Internet Association
It should be noted that, in 1999, the WHO’s own International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) scientists unanimously concluded that ELF (powerline 60 Hz) magnetic fields should be classified a 2B or “Possible” carcinogen! [49] Yet the WHO, like Health Canada, publicly endorses ICNIRP’s outrageously-high, U.S. Military compatible ELF and RF Exposure Limits and urges other countries do so as well!
Dr. Michael Repacholi(1983-2006)
“5G” (Fifth Generation) Technology5G will contribute as much as $40-billion annually to Canada’s economy by 2026. The deployment of 5G networks across Canada will lead to the creation of hundreds of thousands of new jobs. Specifically, more than 150,000 short-term jobs are likely to be created between 2020 and 2026 while the networks are being deployed, and the estimated $26-billion investment by facilities–based carriers required to deploy the networks is likely to create 250,000 more permanent jobs annually by 2026! [71]
Corruption and Greed are Harming and Literally Killing an Unsuspecting Public
PART ONE
Historical Background
1) In 1953, the U.S. Navy established 100 W/m² or 10,000,000 µW/m² as the ‘safe’ Exposure Limit for those exposed to microwave radiation (RF EMR) - which recognized ONLY the thermal effects of this radiation! At that time, the U.S. Military may not have known or at least did not admit that there were or could be harmful non-thermal effects to RF EMR. [See Ref. 1 again]
2) In 1961, U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower warned the American people to be on guard against the emergence of a corrupt U.S. Military-Industrial-Complex (US M-I-C). But authorities did nothing to protect the public!
3) In 1963, U.S. President John F. Kennedy told the audience at Columbia University that the U.S. is in danger from within, and that he intended to inform the citizens. Ten days layer he was assassinated. Authorities did nothing to protect the public!
4) In 1966, NATO and the ‘Five-Eyes’ countries (which, in addition to the U.S., includes the U.K., Canada, Australia and New Zealand) were obliged to adopt the same egregiously-high ‘safe’ Exposure Limits of the U.S. Military, i.e., 10,000,000 µW/m² in order for their communications and weapons systems to be compatible with those of the U.S.A., the world’s only super-power!
5) In 1968, U.S. President Lyndon B. Johnson pledged to keep American’s safe in their homes and at work and pledged to protect them from hazardous radiation from TV sets and other electronic equipment (all of which emit hazardous non-thermal EMR)! (This was hard evidence that the feared US-M-I-C existed!) Yet those in authority did nothing to protect the public!
6) In 1971, U.S. President Richard Nixon’s own electromagnetic radiation (EMR) Advisory Council warned him that the (non-thermal) EMR already in our homes, places of work, cities etc. may already be biologically significant and that the entire population of the USA may be at risk! (Indisputable evidence that the US M-I-C existed. And this was at least 15 years BEFORE wireless technology began flooding North America! Still, those in authority did nothing to protect the public!
7) In 1975, the U.S. Military’s ‘Tri-Service EMR Bioeffects Research Plan’ admitted that, “for them to adopt lower/safer Exposure Limits, would cost them dearly as they would need to buy substantial additional lands for them to provide the public with adequate ‘buffer’ zones”!
8) In 1976 the declassified U.S. DIA (Defense Intelligence Agency) Report on Microwaves stated: “If the more advanced nations of the West are strict in their enforcement of stringent exposure standards, there could be unfavourable effects on industrial output and military functions”!
9) In 1976, the U.S. Government advised its Western allies: “not to talk about non-thermal effects of microwave radiation. If it did not heat the body, they were not to talk about it”!
10) A 1976 U.S. Defense Intelligence document lists all of the health hazards caused by wireless devices. It concludes: “This should be kept secret to preserve industrial profit.”
11) In about 1979, the U.S. EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) estimated that: “if the Soviet RF Exposure Limit of 1 uW for the public (instead of the U.S.’ 10,000,000 µW/m²was adopted here, over 90% of U.S. FM stations would have to be shut down”!
12) In 1986, the U.S. EPA proposed that pulsed non-thermal RF EMR be designated as a Class C (Possible) carcinogen – but was slapped down and had its funding cut off!
13) In 1986, the U.S. Office of Naval Research also had its funding cut off for research into non-thermal radiation!
14) In 1993, an internal U.S. FDA (Food & Drug Administration) memo states that data “strongly suggests” that microwave radiation promotes cancer!
15) In 1994, a U.S. Air Force study confirmed the existence of non-thermal EMF effects, including alterations to the central nervous system and cardiovascular system!
16) In 1994, U.S. Military scientists said: “Microwave energy in the range 1 to 5 GHz, a militarily important range, penetrates all organ systems of the body and thus puts all organ systems at risk. Effects on the central nervous system are considered very important”! (This range of frequencies is precisely where all of today’s wireless products – even baby monitors and smart meters – are authorized to emit their hazardous non-thermal radiation!)
17) In 1995, U.S. President Bill Clinton issued a formal Memorandum stating that transmitter masts (which include cell towers) should not be sited on schools or near residential areas. (Yet the very next year, he signed the Telecommunications Act, which, in part, was written by the Telecom Industry itself! Those in authority did nothing!
18) On Sept. 13, 1995, the U.S. EPA’s own research caused them concern about EMR/F – wanted to establish guidelines to protect the public, but the U.S. Senate Committee on Appropriations stated: “… EPA should not engage in EMF activities”! EPA then had its budget cut drastically!
19) In 2004, then U.S. Senator John McCain said: “We have seen compelling evidence that there is an incestuous relationship between the defense industry and defense officials that is not good for America.” Those in authority did nothing!
20) In 2005, ICES TC-95 sub-committee 3 set – for the world – guidelines for what are supposed to be ‘safe’ levels of 50 / 60 Hz (power line frequency) electric and magnetic fields people can be exposed to in their homes, schools, places of work, etc. (See the corruption, below)
21) In 2010, U.S. President Barack Obama’s Cancer Advisory Panel said that the nation’s most pressing issue is the use of wireless devices by children. Still, those in authority did nothing!
Radiation Regulatory Agencies
There are two international health regulatory agencies: the WHO (World Health Organization) and ICNIRP (International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection). Within the USA, there are also two regulatory agencies: ICES (International Committee on Electromagnetic Safety) - a committee within the private sector organization known as IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) - and the FCC (Federal Communications Commission), which has no EMF / EMR scientists of its own. The FCC (an industry-captured agency) simply adopts whatever ‘guidelines’ are set by the U.S. Military-controlled ICES’ Technical Committee (TC) 95 (sub-committees 3 and 4) and promulgates them to the world as FCC guidelines.

Neither the USA nor Canada has ever established its own national ‘safe’ Exposure Guidelines to protect the public from the effects of long-term exposure to low-level non-thermal Extremely Low (or powerline 60 Hz) frequency or “ELF” electric or magnetic fields “EMF”s, to which we are all exposed when we are near anything in which electricity flows, i.e., overhead power lines, substations, household electricity and appliances, etc. Instead, the USA follows the guidelines set by ICES TC95 subcommittee 3 (see ‘ICES’ in Part TWO); whereas Canada and the WHO follow and endorse the recommendations of ICNIRP.
International Criticism of the USA-Led ‘Western’ Guidelines:
1) Switzerland, Belgium, Austria, Italy, Russia, China and most East European countries (and the Toronto Board of Health) observe ‘safe’ Exposure Limits which are at least 100 times lower (safer) than those of U.S.-led Western countries – including Health Canada’s (HC) Safety Code 6 (SC6)!
2) The non-industry BioInitiative 2007 Report urged all countries of the world to reduce their RF EMR ‘safe’ Exposure Limits 10,000 times! Those in authority did nothing.
3) In Sept. 2008, the Parliament of the European Union (28 countries, 500-million people) voted 522 to 16 to agree with the BioInitiative 2007 Report – i.e., ICNIRP’s current EMF safety standards are obsolete and must be renewed! Those in authority did nothing!
4) In 2010, the Seletun Statement – Norway (The International Electromagnetic Field Alliance – IEMFA) said that ICNIRP’s and IEEE/FCC’s public safety limits are inadequate and obsolete and that new biologically-based (i.e. non-thermal) standards are urgently needed to protect public health world-wide! [2] Those in authority did nothing!
5) In 2011, the Council of Europe (47 countries, >830-million people) called on European governments to introduce the Precautionary Principle and/or observe the ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) principle. [3] But those in authority did nothing!
6) In June 2011, the European Parliaments declared that they recognize for the first time the biological effects of EMF on living plants, animals and humans. The need now is to protect citizens from EMR, particularly pregnant women, newborn babies and children. [4] Still, authorities did nothing.
7) The BioInitiative 2012 Report (29 authors, including 21 PhDs and 10 health specialists from 10 countries) urged all countries to reduce their Exposure Limits 3 to 6 million – repeat – 3 to 6 million times! Indefensibly, authorities did nothing!
8) In 2014, the U.S. Department of the Interior attacked the FCC’s exposure guidelines calling them obsolete and 30 years out of date! (And these are similar to those which all Western countries follow). Authorities still did nothing!
9) In 2014, 53 scientists from 18 countries condemned Health Canada’s SC6 and called on HC to intervene to help avoid an emerging health crisis. [5]
10) In 2014, 55 Canadian doctors condemned SC6 and called for Health Canada to protect Canadians from RF exposure! [6]
11) In 2015, scientists from 41 countries signed the International EMF Scientists’ Appeal, which called on the UN, all UN-member countries, and all world governments to “Protect Mankind and Wildlife from EMFs and wireless technologies. Currently, at least 242 scientists have signed the Appeal!
12) The BioInitiative 2017 Report states emphatically that “The agent (RF EMR) is carcinogenic to humans!” [4] Yet all Western nations remain deaf!
13) In 2017 it was revealed that WHO’s core group of RF EHC experts were, except for one, all ICNIRP members! [7]
14) In 2017, more than 180 scientists from 37 countries including 17 from non-EU countries appealed for “5G” (Fifth Generation technology) moratorium warning of potential serious threats to human health and the environment [8]
15) In May, 2018, the International Society of Doctors for the Environment, its subsidiaries in 27 countries and more than 200 doctors and scientists, called for the stop to roll-out of “5G” due to concerns the radiation will have adverse health effects. [9]
16) As of Nov., 2018, 20,308 people have signed the “International Appeal, Stop 5G on Earth and in Space. [10]
Note(s)
1) Despite all of the above, Health Canada has not once imposed the ‘Precautionary Principle’ in an effort to protect the unsuspecting and defenseless Canadian population!
2) Not once has Health Canada put the onus on industry to prove – using independent, qualified EMF / EMR professionals, having no ties to industry - that their technologies are SAFE to be used by, on and around people, of all sizes, of all ages, of all levels of wellness, continuously, around the clock, in perpetuity, before they were allowed to use or sell them!

PART TWO
DISCUSSION
Today, aided and abetted by mainstream news media’s decision in the 1960s to remain silent on this whole non-thermalradiation issue, the corrupt US M-I-C now controls their counterparts in major Western countries and, indirectly, both international health regulatory agencies: the WHO and ICNIRP, as well as the U.S.’ own FCC. Other agencies / organizations around the Western world who champion the US M-I-C’s thermal-effectsONLY paradigm and their better known key players are noted below … as are some people who are not known to be conflicted.
Health Canada (Radiation Protection Bureau)
It’s stated Role is to: “To Protect the Health of Canadians,” and it’s stated Mission is: “To help the people of Canada maintain and improve their health.” But Health Canada’s RPB have callously – and criminally - abandoned the people of Canada in order to promote economic development and industrial growth! This explains why and how SC6 is similar to the U.S. Military’s dangerously-high Exposure Limits for RF EMR -10,000,000 uW/m²! Moreover, given that both ICNIRP and the WHO also share similar ‘guidelines,’ one can then understand why Health Canada endorses and recommends to others that they too should follow ICNIRP’s guidelines! Some of the more prominent, influential champions of the thermal-effectsONLY paradigm are shown in the agencies named below, all of which are now part of the feared U.S. M-I-C.
Repacholi, Michael, Ph.D.
· Easily Canada’s/the world’s most notorious champion of the thermal-effectsONLY paradigm!
· Headed the RPB (’71-’83)
· In 1979, he set Canada’s initial SC6 ‘safe’ Exposure Limit for RF EMR, which was similar to the U.S. Military’s dangerously-high 10,000,000 µW/m²!
· In 1998, while employed at the WHO, assisted by others, set the same U.S. Military ‘standard’ for ICNIRP (See ‘ICNIRP’ below);
· Then he orchestrated the same U.S. Military ‘standard’ for the WHO (See ‘WHO’ below);
Note: Because Health Canada, the WHO, ICNIRP, ICES (the latter of whom speaks for the U.S. Military) and the FCC all refuse to acknowledge that there are harmful non-thermaleffects to RF EMR, this gives the wireless and telecom industries in Western countries the ‘green light’ to fully exploit the virgin universe of extremely profitable wireless products – all of which emit hazardous pulsed non-thermal EMFs!

Krewski, Daniel, PhD(1998-present)
· Heavily conflicted, Krewski is Canada’s dominant champion of the thermal-effectsONLY paradigm.
· Since 1998, has been and is Professor and Director
· Concurrently, is Chair of Natural Sciences and Engineering Research (NSERC) Industrial Research in Risk Science.
· The WHO 2006 Annual Report reflected that Krewskicollaborated several times on EMF issues with his old colleague Michael Repacholi.) [7] [8]
· In 1998, he was selected by the Royal Society of Canada to chair an Expert Panel on the Potential Health Risks of RF EMR from Wireless Telecommunication Devices. His team included Mary McBride* (1sttime), M. Stuchlyand others.
· In 1999, the CWTA, who lobby nationally on behalf of its members, named Daniel Krewskito be chairman of its new, industry-funded WIRC. [9] [10] (See ‘CWTA’ below.)
· In 1999, he chaired the 1STRoyal Society of Canada’s (RSC) “Expert Panel” assembled to review SC6. One of those he chose to assist him as an ‘Expert’ was the same Mary L. McBride* (2ndtime). (See above, and BC Cancer Agency, below).
Notes:
1. In 1999, even the RSC acknowledged the possibility of non-thermaleffects, but
did not recommend lowering SC6!
Notes:
1. In 1999, even the RSC acknowledged the possibility of non-thermaleffects, but
did not recommend lowering SC6!
2. The same RSC also stated that existing guidelines were inadequate to protect parts of the body, especially the eyes, and recommended changes – but this too went unheeded! [11]
· In 2005, according to the WHO’s Annual Report, Krewskiwas the Principal Investigator in the epidemiological study of cellular telephones and cancer which was funded, in part, at least, by CWTA. [12]
· In 2005 and 2006, as the WHO/IARC’s Principal Investigator, his team investigating cell phones and head and neck cancers included Mary McBride* (3rdtime) and required him to interact with Dr. Emilie Van DeVenterof the WHO-EMF project.
[13]
[13]
· He wrote a negative review of cell phones with known U.S. Industry consultant John Moulder(see ‘ICES,’ below).
· In 2005, he chaired the 2ndRSC “Expert Review Panel” assembled to review SC6, which included the same U.S. industry consultant, John Moulder, and American and veteran ICES-member Kenneth Foster. (See ‘ICES’ below)
· Between 2007 and 2013, he also had his own company: Risk Sciences International (RSI), a consulting firm in Ottawa. It is known that Health Canada awarded Krewski and RSI at least 19 contracts with a total value of about $750,000. [14]
· In 2013, he chaired the 3rdRSC “Expert Review Panel” that reviewed SC6. He had submitted to the RSC, a list of people scientists he wanted on ‘his’ Expert Panel. On his list, he even nominated himself to be chairman and those he wanted on ‘HIS’ “Expert Panel.” Subsequently, he and another ‘expert’ had to be replaced. In Krewski’s case, it was found that he had failed to disclose business he had done earlier with Industry Canada! Other members of his Panel of Experts included the same Americans Kenneth Fosterand John Moulder, mentioned earlier (see ‘ICES’ below), and Louise Lemyre, his colleague at the R. Samuel McLaughlin Centre. [15] [16]
· He has co-authored with conflicted Mary McBridemany times to do with EMF / EMR and brain tumors and other cancers (in 2013, 2014, 2016, 2016, 2018) (See BC Cancer Agency’ below) and with conflicted Maria Feychting(2016) (see ‘Europe’ below). [17] [18]

BC Cancer Agency
Mary L. McBride, MSc.
· Her employer notwithstanding, she continues to be one of Canada’s favorite ELF / RF ‘experts’ who champions internationally the thermal-effectsONLY paradigm. In the writer’s opinion, she definitely is in a ‘conflict-of-interest’ situation whenever she allows herself to be utilized as an EMF / EMR “expert,” because BC Cancer Agency (nor any other known cancer agency) never mentions EMF / EMR as being even a ‘possible’ cause of cancer!
· In 1998, she was selected for the 1sttime by Daniel Krewski of Health Canada to be a member of his Expert Panel team. (See R. Samuel McLaughlin Centre, above.)
· In 1999, she was selected for the 2ndtime by Krewskito be one of his “Experts.” (See above.)
· In 2005, she was selected by Industry Canada to be their ‘Expert’ member on an Advisory Committee formed to determine a National Tower (cell phone tower siting) Policy Review. [19]

CWTA (Canadian Wireless and Telecommunications Association)
It lobbies all governments in Canada on behalf of the wireless and telephone industries.
It lobbies all governments in Canada on behalf of the wireless and telephone industries.
Bernard Lord, ONB, QC, fluently bilingual, two-time premier of New Brunswick (1999-2006). It is highly unlikely that he would have known that RF EMR emitted by mobile phones and other wireless devices could be harmful to humans. Still, wireless technology across Canada experienced phenomenal growth in the eight years he led CWTA.
· 2008-2016 - he was President and CEO of CWTA (plus he was thought to be on the ‘short-list’ to succeed former Prime Minister Stephen Harper).
· In 2007, PM Stephen Harper chose him to head committee on official languages. Few doors across Canada would not have opened for him.
· Public schools and buildings even hospitals found themselves full of wireless technology.
· In 2014 he became Board Chair of Ontario Power Generation.

United States of America
Federally, the U. S. government has never set its own ‘safe’ Exposure Limit guidelines for ELF or RF radiation. (See ‘ICES,’ below.)
· In 1966, the industry-sponsored American Standards Council adopted the U.S. military’s thermal-effectsONLY exposure limit of 10,000,000 µW/m²!
· In 1966, this same outrageously-high ‘guideline’ was also adopted by its NATO allies, including Canada, which can be seen in RPB’s SC6! (See ‘Health Canada’ above.)
Notes:
1) It bears repeating that, by establishing this thermal-effectsONLYparadigm while also adopting the U.S. military’s extremely high ‘safe’ Exposure Limits for RF EMR, this enables wireless and telecom companies and electric power utilities to manufacture and sell obscenely profitable wireless products / devices – all of which produce hazardous non-thermal ELF and/or pulsed RF EMFs – with impunity!

2) Virtually no single RF EMF emitting wireless device, on its own, is capable of exceeding SC6’s outrageously-highthermal-onlyExposure Limits, but cumulatively, given the multitude of EMF / EMR emitters that now flood every community, the public can easily be exposed to radiation that far exceed SC6 Exposure Limits!

The Unites States Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
In 1993, the FDA issued an internal Memo which said: “Data “Strongly Suggest” Microwaves Can Promote Cancer”! It went on to say that: “Of approximately eight chronic animal experiments known to us, five resulted in increased numbers of malignancies, accelerated progression of tumors, or both,” wrote Drs. May Swicord(See ‘ICES,’ below) and Larry Cressof FDA’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health. They also pointed to other evidence from laboratory (in vitro) studies that supported a cancer risk.

ICES (International Committee on Electromagnetic Safety)
Within ICES, Subcommittees 3 and 4 set the ‘safe’ ELF (powerline 60 Hz) EMFs and RF EMR guidelines, respectively, for the U.S. Military and for the USA (see ‘FCC’ below)! ICES’ immediate goal is to ‘harmonize’ USA’s ‘safe’ RF EMR Exposure Limits with those of ICNIRP (i.e. Europe) and, ultimately, have the world adopt its standards – which are based on the thermal effectsONLY of EMFs and EMR!

EUROPE
World Health Organization (WHO)
It should be noted that, in 1999, the WHO’s own International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) scientists unanimously concluded that ELF (powerline 60 Hz) magnetic fields should be classified a 2B or “Possible” carcinogen! [49] Yet the WHO, like Health Canada, publicly endorses ICNIRP’s outrageously-high, U.S. Military compatible ELF and RF Exposure Limits and urges other countries do so as well!
Dr. Michael Repacholi(1983-2006)
· In 1984, he chaired the WHO’s first panel to determine ‘safe’ Exposure Limits for ELF EMFs. Although the panel recommended efforts be made to use the ALARA principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable), Repacholi has continued to ignore this recommendation to protect the public throughout his career!
· 1996-2006, he led the WHO’s 10-year, $250-million International Study on the harmful effects of EMF in the frequency range 0 to 300 GHz. in 1992, while still at the WHO, he helped create ICNIRP (see ‘ICNIRP,’ below);
· In 1996, while in charge of the above, he said: “the Precautionary Principle should not be applied to EMFs! [50]
· He is responsible for the WHO having similar dangerously-high ‘safe’ Exposure Limits for RF EMR as does the U.S. Military - which recognize the ‘thermaleffects’ ONLY! This is particularly serious for those who are chronically exposed to EMF radiation from multiple sources, such as the combined radiation from smart meters, Wi-Fi, etc., baby monitors, cell phones, cordless phones, etc.!
· In 2005, he specifically invited eight electric power utility representatives to help him establish – for the world– ‘safe’ ambient levels of powerline (50 / 60 Hz) or Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) magnetic fields (MFs) to which the public and workers can ‘safely’ be exposed in their homes and on the job, respectively! One of those to whom he sent it for comment was William F. Bailey(See ‘Exponent Inc.’ above)
Notes:
1) This explains why today ICNIRP, the WHO and Health Canada all say that a ‘safe’ ambient level of MFs in a home and places of work can be up to 2,000 mGand 10,000 mG, respectively! Whereas scientists, globally, say that neither should be more than 1 mG!

2) This outrageous difference enables profit-focused electric power utilities to install their overhead power lines, substations etc. dangerously close to homes, schools, places of work - which saves them literally billions of dollars in real estate costs they otherwise would have to incur to buy the land necessary for them to place / situate their infrastructure at SAFE distances from schools, homes, places of work, etc., i.e., actual Gaussmeter measurements of the magnetic field present at any of these locations would not exceed 1 mG!
3) Unbelievably, in the USA, both the public and those at work must endure magnetic fields of up to 9,040 mG! [51]
· Even though Repacholi retired from the WHO, in 2007, he is still a member of ICES TC95, SC3/4 in 2018 – as are William F. Bailey, Ken Foster, Joe Elder, James McNamee, Art Thansandoteand others from Industry Canada (see ICES below)!
· Note:In 2017, Lennart Hardell, PhD., of Sweden, the world’s preeminent researcher on brain tumor risk and long term cell phone use stated publicly that the WHO has allowed itself to be captured by ICNIRP, which is dominated by industry [52]

(IARCis the cancer research arm for the WHO.)
· In 1999, IARC, i.e., WHO’s own scientists, classified ELF EMFs a Class 2B or “Possible Carcinogen”! Yet both Health Canada and the WHO publicly endorse ICNIRP’s outrageously-high exposure limits … and urge other countries to do so as well!
· In 2001, William Bailey(See ‘Exponent’ above) along withMichael Repacholi(see ‘Health Canada’ above) and Maria Stuchly, then of the University of Victoria (See ‘Health Canada’ above), served on a WHO / IARC panel to evaluate the carcinogenic risks powerline electric and magnetic fields pose to humans. The panel concluded then that there was/is a risk for children exposed to magnetic fields of above 4 mG! [54]
· In 2011, IARC had to remove Prof. Anders Ahlbomas Chair of their Expert Panel of 32 experts which they had assembled to assess the evidence of carcinogenicity from RF exposure when it learned that in 2010 Prof. Ahlbomhad set up a PR/lobby group company in Brussels, with his brother, Gunnar Ahlbom,for the latter to do business, especially with the telecom industry!

· In 2007, he was a member of the Expert Review Panel assembled by the Irish government.
· In 2008, the Swedish Karolinska Institute concluded that Ahlbom, the ICNIRP-member, should disclose his relationship to ICNIRP whenever he makes a statement about mobile phone health risks. [58]
· In 2011, he had to be removed as Head of IARC (International Agency for Research on Cancer) Expert Panel due to conflict of interest (see IARC’, above).
· In 2011, he resigned from the Swedish Radiation Post [59]
· He worked with / assisted Dr. Repacholito establish ICNIRPs initial Exposure Limits for both ELF EMFs and RF EMR! [60]
· He also had chaired every Expert group for the Swedish Radiation Protection Agency! [ ] Increasingly, ICNIRP is known for its conflicts of interest due its relationships with telecommunications or electric companies.
· In 2001, on behalf of ICNIRPs standing committee on Epidemiology, he co-authored with conflicted U.K. scientist Anthony Swerdlowand others a study of power line 50/60 Hz (ELF) frequency EMFs which showed them to be harmless. [61]

Notes:
1. Between them, Ahlbomand Feychting, dominated all expert evaluations of the health risks from both powerline (50 / 60 Hz) EMFs line and RF EMR in Sweden (2003-2011). They have been or still are experts for the WHO (Feychting: 2015-2018), in the EU (Ahlbom: 2007 and 2009), in the UK and Norway (Feychting). Between them, they are given considerable credit for the standards most countries in Europe now apply for limited exposure to EMF: Ahlbom for ICNIRP 1996-2008; Feychting for ICNIRP 2008-now). Historically, they both have dismissed any health effects below ICNIRP’s guidelines. Both receive funds from the telecommunications indusry for research! [66]

“5G” (Fifth Generation) Technology5G will contribute as much as $40-billion annually to Canada’s economy by 2026. The deployment of 5G networks across Canada will lead to the creation of hundreds of thousands of new jobs. Specifically, more than 150,000 short-term jobs are likely to be created between 2020 and 2026 while the networks are being deployed, and the estimated $26-billion investment by facilities–based carriers required to deploy the networks is likely to create 250,000 more permanent jobs annually by 2026!

CONCLUSION
Tragically, U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower’s warning to the American people in 1961 – to be on guard against the emergence of a corrupt U.S. Military-Industrial-Complex– went unheeded. But its existence today has long been validated by a series of U.S. presidents and one U.S. senator. The history chronicled in PART ONE of this paper will withstand any serious due diligence. And while data in PART TWO is admittedly incomplete, it provides ample compelling evidence to convince any serious person looking for the truth that just a small group of conflicted scientists from around the world are now, and have been since 1966, responsible for perpetuating this unthinkably and unforgivably cruel and dangerous ‘thermal-effects’ ONLY myth! While governments and industry have both reaped unprecedented profits, the cost to mankind has been and increasingly is incalculable, in terms of the disease epidemics and premature deaths caused by these man-made technologies – not just on people, but on all living things! Now the electric power and communications and electronics industries are poised to unleash their insane and completely untested “5G” technology on the same unsuspecting and utterly defenseless humans - in all countries of the world! Non-industry scientists have said that 5G will simply expedite the disappearance of the human race!

And while data in PART TWO is admittedly incomplete, it provides ample compelling evidence to convince any serious person looking for the truth that just a small group of conflicted scientists from around the world are now, and have been since 1966, responsible for perpetuating this unthinkably and unforgivably cruel and dangerous ‘thermal-effects’ ONLY myth! While governments and industry have both reaped unprecedented profits, the cost to mankind has been and increasingly is incalculable, in terms of the disease epidemics and premature deaths caused by these man-made technologies – not just on people, but on all living things! Now the electric power and communications and electronics industries are poised to unleash their insane and completely untested “5G” technology on the same unsuspecting and utterly defenseless humans - in all countries of the world! Non-industry scientists have said that 5G will simply expedite the disappearance of the human race!
On the premise that it is not already too late, governments must urgently seek counsel from reputable, internationally-recognized, non-industry EMF / EMR scientists or ‘experts’ who are certain to advise them to: 1) Immediately ban 5G technology and ensure that it is never used on human beings! 2) Immediately ban all commercial satellites from irradiating any portion of planet Earth with ELF EMF or RF EMR! 3) remove from all locations within the province ASAP wireless RF products / devices / gadgets that have not been independently tested and proven to be safe to humans and all living things - and replace them with safe hard-wired alternatives; 4) direct electric power utilities to re-locate ASAP their overhead power lines, substations, power transformers, etc. to distances which are proven to be SAFE from schools, residential areas, places of work, etc. (Gaussmeter readings of not more than 1 mG at any given location is to be the only acceptable criterion); 5) immediately ban all ‘smart’ meters across the country and direct electric utilities to replace them with safe analogue meters – at the utility’s expense! 6) direct all owners and/or operators of radio towers (e.g.: cell, amateur radio, AM/FM radio and TV, CB, etc.) to re-locate them ASAP to ‘safe’ distances from schools, residential areas, hospitals, places of work, where people gather, etc. 7) direct all industries – especially telecom companies – henceforth, where practicable, to use fibre optic, co-axial and/or other shielded cable to connect anythingin which electricity flows; 8) at their earliest, recruit an internationally-respected ELF / EMR scientist or ‘expert’ who is to be installed on an interim basis as the province’s voice (authority) on all aspects of ELF EMF/RF EMR and EHS as they relate to public health and safety; and, 9) Insist that all Provincial Health Officers and Regional Health Authorities be educated about ELF EMF / RF EMR and EHS.
