Principle is based on a system of reflection Guglietti said her home was well under construction when the antennas were set up in September. "We wouldn't even have gone through with the construction if we knew something like that was going to be put up," she said. "I asked some of the other neighbours if they knew this cell tower was going to be put up and nobody knew. Because it is under 15 metres, they didn't have to notify anyone... which is not fair. I think we should have the right to know and the right to decide whether we want to be exposed to these frequencies." Once the basic structure of the house was completed, Guglietti had the company Safe Living Technologies Inc., conduct readings in its various rooms to determine how much radio frequency radiation was now present with the arrival of the nearby antennas. Guglietti claimed some of the rooms on the second floor, which are closest to and in line with the cell antennas, were found to contain 15,000 microwatts of electromagnetic energy per square metre. Guglietti said she is concerned about these readings because of the potential health impacts of long-term exposure to cell-tower emissions. She cited a study conducted in Brazil in 2011, which found that people who lived near cell towers, experienced a higher rate of mortality from cancer than those who lived more than 500 metres away from cell towers.

He added this particular cell installation was put in place due to customer demand in the area. Halton Region's Chief Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Bob Nosal, has said there is no convincing evidence weak radio frequency signals from cell towers cause adverse health effects. Nosal has also acknowledged the agreement between Health Canada, the World Health Organization (WHO), and the International Agency for Research on Cancer that additional research is warranted. After talks with government officials and Bell Canada representatives failed to get the Balsam Drive antennas removed, Guglietti said she settled on another option, which she hoped would keep radio frequency radiation out of her house. This option involves blocking the radiation with aluminum shielding. "It works on the principle of reflection and it reflects radio waves and prevents them from going through. So it basically creates a barrier for microwave transmissions and radio freSee Protection page 8 NIKKI WESLEY / OAKVILLE BEAVER / @halton_photog president of Safe Living Technologies Inc.
