Remove Unwanted Smart Meter? PLEASE INFORM
For those in BC who have received a Smart Meter against their wishes.
"REMOVE UNWANTED SMART METER"
Until recently, BC Hydro has said that "only 7% or 140,000 homes have refused" a BC Hydro smart meter. Now they are playing with the numbers of those who have "opted out", saying more and more have come on-side after being "informed."
The Coalition to Stop Smart Meters and Citizens for Safe Technology Society would like everyone who has had a wireless smart meter installed, and wants it removed, to let us know.
To do so, e-mail dsnoble@shaw.ca with a short and simple statement to that effect, and put "REMOVE METER" in the subject line.
We want to form a large list of the many thousands of BC residents who want this device removed. We will present it to the BC Utilities Commission (BCUC) prior to election time.
Please pass this request to friends and neighbours as well.
This will be important information to give to politicians come campaign time to show how unwanted this program is.
Thank you!
