Drinking water is fluoridated in Canada, the United States and
Australia, but almost nowhere else in the world. Western Europe and
Japan have almost no fluoridated water supplies. About 43 percent of
Canadians live in communities with fluoridated tap water.
The Council of Canadians is opposed to the fluoridation of drinking
water. We are concerned by the health and environmental impacts
associated with it.
We are working with the Quebec-based group Eau Secours which is opposing
the Charest government’s plans to increase the fluoridation of water
there from about 3 per cent to 50 per cent. We also encourage Council of
Canadians chapters across the country to promote local debate and move
municipal resolutions in their community on this issue.
To see our new Unfluoridate It! web-page, please go to
http://canadians.org/water/issues/fluoride/index.html.
There you will find blogs, resources, and a sample resolution against
fluoridation. More content will be added shortly, including a
translation of the municipal resolution into English.
