Fuck this lying, duplicitous, sanctimonious, self-serving asshole.
Gian-Carlo Carra lobbied hard to get fluoride out of our water - he called it cost savings, and also said things like “the science isn’t clear!” and “We need to be treating dental care from a broader perspective!”
Utter bullshit of course. He had an agenda and shoved it down the throats of a compliant council.
After a decade, he claimed that “a decade’s worth of research justified it.” In reality, the city carried out his personal ten year research experiment on the poor and vulnerable children of Calgary, and when the results were incontrovertibly against his personal views, he hedged his vote with even more handwaving and bullshit, making it clear that he wasn’t happy to vote in favour of it.
