“It would be great to see people advocating to talk to their local media so the public is aware of what is going on and how this will impact everyone in.<\/span><\/div>\n


\nPlease write letters to\u00a0the Industry Minister to beg him to stop this auction from happening. It’s absolutely disgusting to continue to allow wireless to expand even more when there are so many people suffering already from exposure to it. Now there will be this even stronger wireless being imposed on people without their consent. The 700 Mhz stuff travels farther and goes through metal, dirt, concrete, etc. It can reach into basements, parking garages and metal elevators. The lower frequencies penetrate into people more as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

I cannot imagine how this is going to impact those of us that are ES that are trying to shield our homes in metal screen, fabric and paint.<\/p>\n

How many more people are going to become ill as well?<\/p>\n

When is this going to stop?<\/p>\n

Do whatever you can to fight this. Put signs in your car windows, protest the auction and Industry Canada offices, whatever you can think to get this stopped before the 14th. If you have any great ideas please post them here.”
