Canadian Mayor proclaims Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Awareness MonthTuesday 26 January 2010
Mayor Don Coombs proclaims January 2010 as Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Awareness Month Christiane Tourtet B.A. Don Coombs, Mayor of Harbour Grace, Newfoundland, Canada, has proclaimed January 2010 as Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity Awareness Month. This is the fourth proclamation in Canada, (the first one was signed by David Saunders, Mayor of the City of Colwood, B.C. (August 2009) the second one was done by Dennis O'Keefe, Mayor of St John's in Newfoundland), (August 2009), and the third one was signed by Mayor Fred Budgell of Norris Arm, Newfoundland (October 2009). Canada, thus, joins other countries, such as in the USA, where one Mayor, Broward County (May 2009) and two Governors, Connecticut, (May 2009 and 2010) Colorado, (May 2009) have signed proclamations for the recognition of this devastating environmental illness, which is the direct result of worldwide electromagnetic pollution. In the proclamation it is stated that, people of all ages in Harbour Grace and throughout the world have developed the illness of Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity (EMHS) as a result of global electromagnetic pollution, and that Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity, is a painful chronic illness of hypersensitive reactions to electromagnetic radiations for which there is no known cure, and that the symptoms of Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity, include dermal changes, acute numbness and tingling, dermatitis, flushing, headaches, arrhythmia, muscular weakness, tinnitus, malaise, gastric problems, nausea, visual disturbances, severe neurological, respiratory, speech, problems, and numerous other physiological symptoms and often can develop into Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS). It is also stated in the proclamation, that Electromagnetic Hypersensitivity is recognized by the Canadian Human Rights Commission, The Canadian Government as an Environmental Sensitivity, The Americans with Disabilities Act, and many other National and International commissions, and that, this illness may be preventable through the reduction or avoidance of electromagnetic radiation in both indoor and outdoor environments and by further medical research.
