I gave numerous lectures in various communities and on City TV regarding the hazards of depleted uranium based on her data that showed how Gulf War syndrome was actually radiation poisoning. How the Gulf War was actually a nuclear war, one bullet and bomb at a time.</font></div><div style="color:

We have been working since 1984 to influence people and governments about these hazards particularly ionizing (nuclear) radiation. We have managed to influence a lot of people including ones in environmental NGOs. However, along with our colleagues, reaching the critical mass of people in Canada necessary to force the government to phase out nuclear industries has been unsuccessful. <br>
In Germany, since Fukushima, they achieved that critical mass and successfully got the German government to back away from their plans to build new reactors and they are going to be phasing out the ones they now have. Other European countries have now followed their lead. At present, the Japanese citizens are working on their government to gain the same result. <br>
Because of your interest, I would like to talk to you about possibly working together with us in our campaign to educate the public particularly in Ontario. The Ontario government is planning to build as many as possibly four new reactors at Darlington nuclear power station. We are engaged at present with other NGOs in trying to persuade them against this. <br>

At a conference at University of Waterloo on August 24, there were representatives from Fort Chipewyan Alberta. They said the tar sands are set to run out of Natural Gas in 25 years and that operations will be replaced by planned nuclear power from 13 nuclear plants. I asked the residents if there is Uranium in the soil up that way and they confirmed it. They said there is actually a massive quarry planned to extract Uranium 19km away from Fort Chipewyan to supply the proposed nuke plants. </div>
