Summary

Dr. Havas presents compelling evidence on the dangers of electromagnetic pollution, particularly for children. She discusses how wireless technology affects reproduction, increases cancer risks, and causes neurological issues. The testimony covers the rise in autism and ADHD, linking them to increased electromagnetic exposure. Dr. Havas explains how Wi-Fi and cell phone radiation can impact heart function and blood composition, even at levels below current safety guidelines. She critiques Health Canada’s stance on electromagnetic hypersensitivity and argues for more stringent regulations. The presentation includes data on the global increase in Wi-Fi hotspots, brain tumor incidence, and the prevalence of electrosensitivity. Dr. Havas concludes by offering solutions to minimize exposure and calls for urgent action to protect children’s health.
