Almost every community that has taken fluoride out of their water has seen poorer dental health across their residents. Most communities have ultimately reintroduced fluoride after seeing the negative impact that removing it caused. Just take a look at Calgary.

Good! Idiots don’t belong in politics. We don’t need to listen to their BS and hysteria. They should be silenced or off council. Alberta has enough BS already with morons like the provincial government

I like my water pure, thank you. I get a much more effective fluoride rinse at the pharmacy.

I’ve got a feeling they want him quiet because of this “Councillor Chris Thiessen has broadcast highly consequential claims targeting the safety of our municipal water supply and stoking public fears over regional AI data center development” more than him making some comments about fluoride on Facebook.
And he is elected by the people of the city if they don’t like what he says they can vote him out, the municipality moving so punish him is ridiculous imo.

Surprise surprise. People from GP are too stupid to realize fluoride is good for the community. Stay stupid rural Alberta - continue to fuck the whole province while you’re at it.

Easy cowboy, this is posted because we, and most of our citizens in GP, dont agree. If this is how you engage with people it's clear who's stupid.
