Problematic Land Acknowledgements in New Brunswick's Town Halls?

Perhaps its time for more regular folks to speak to this "land acknowledgement" stuff in Town Hall chambers? Ask why they do it? Its problematic.

2011 Minister of Education questioned by email...

"1) do you intend to let your daughter take the fluoride rinse? 2) do you know what the cost per year of the province (we understand it is a Department of Health expense) wide fluoride rinse program is? 3) do you know what year the consent form was introduced for the fluoride rinse? 4) are you open to reading literature about the harmful and damaging health risks associated with fluoride exposure? 5) will the Ministry of Education consider removing the fluoride rinse this year if enough evidence is presented at public hearing on this issue by concerned parties? 6) did you take the fluoride rinse as child in NB since you would have been 4 years old when it was introduced in 1979? In particular this video, about fluoride and the pineal gland, is worthwhile watching before meeting.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSZQ3ixu7a4 I understand you have two young daughters.. and we are here to help all parents in New Brunswick... so I will follow up with a phone call to you about arranging an interview (10 to 15 minutes) in the Oromocto offices this September.. I will speak to Marg again... Thank you. Best regards" [ Aug 27, 2011 ]
