A federal judge has ordered the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to further regulate fluoride in drinking water because high levels could pose a risk to the intellectual development of children.

I looked into whether or not my city was adding fluoride, since I have garbage mouth-genes. I learned that they aren’t (big Canadian city), and If a utility is adding fluoride it may be in different quantities than a neighbouring municipality. The concentrations can vary quite a bit and too much isn’t a good thing.
That I think that list is just Montreal, Vancouver, and Calgary, as our other 5 large cities use fluoride.
Calgary has reversed that decision, but hasn’t added flouride back to the water yet. It’s expected in Q1 2025.
