Dear people,
To my mind safety code 6 is not about safety at all. Why the Canadian Government Health people are regarded as those making a decision on the deployment almost everywhere of a technology they have little expertise in is a mystery to me. Its like placing the incompetent to decide issues of technology affecting masses of people without the capacity to make a good decision from their experience or expertise.
My training is in economics and I think economics comes into play with safety code 6 more than health issues.
What I really want is protection and ethics. I would like an ethics ministry to decide whether the tower should be imposed without compensating those affected with payments of money because of externalities caused directly by the cell tower. Right now the cell tower imposes costs onto my family that I can't recover. I want a legal mechanism to charge against the constant nuisance value of the cell tower located above me.
My personal experience living under a cell tower:
I have read masses of technical material, health studies, statistical analyses, competent research, political tracts, and do actually live just below a cell tower of growing magnitude. I have a device HF35C EMF Meter High Frequency / RF Analyzer (800 MHz - 2,500 MHz. When I place this on my pillow at night in my usual bedroom, I get a reading of around 200 or 2,000 depending on what units you are reading. This is after every in house microwave source in the house has been eliminated down to a reading of about 2 and neighbours WIFI goes undetected. The source is most definitely the overhead cell tower since I live about 150 meters away. The result is that I and my wife moved to another bedroom where a reading of 10 or 100 exists. I did / do notice a difference in the way I feel. Before I was getting continuous headaches and a strange humming in my right ear.
We are torn individuals.
We hate the fact that the tower and all it entails was imposed on us unwillingly. The details suggest that certain people receive money for the tower while others don't yet those living under the shadow of the tower for which the tower is a real nuisance receive nothing tangible.
I don't think revising the safety code 6 addresses the ethical and economic issues at all. Businessmen use the health code as a way to avoid the ethical and economic issues, the real costs of living in the shadow of a cell tower.
It would be good if revision of the safety code 6 removed the economic issues, health issues and ethical issues, but I don't feel you are competent, or perhaps that you have fluff in your ear, which by the way is what happens to hearing if you don't protect yourself from the beams of the cell tower near you.
Can you hear me?
Don't rush your best ideas. Grow them....

"If the person you are talking to doesn't appear to be listening, be patient. It may simply be that he has a small piece of fluff in his ear."
― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh "What I like doing best is Nothing."
"How do you do Nothing," asked Pooh after he had wondered for a long time.
"Well, it's when people call out at you just as you're going off to do it, 'What are you going to do, Christopher Robin?' and you say, 'Oh, Nothing,' and then you go and do it.
It means just going along, listening to all the things you can't hear, and not bothering."
"Oh!" said Pooh."
― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh "Rabbit's clever," said Pooh thoughtfully.
"Yes," said Piglet, "Rabbit's clever."
"And he has Brain."
"Yes," said Piglet, "Rabbit has Brain."
There was a long silence.
"I suppose," said Pooh, "that that's why he never understands anything."
