True North:

no longer "strong and free"


​Canada's become a nation of scaredy-cats.

Our civil rights are being violated by forced face coverings and people are being deliberately duped into fearing an opportunistic flu virus whose only chance of success is with the already debilitated, while the majority of the population fare quite well.

We've been deliberately and callously blinded to the true realities.  The numbers paraded before us by the compromised media include people with no symptoms -- not solely hospitalized and/or deceased -- the better to instill abject fear.

As if there weren't numbers out there with much farther-reaching consequences:

NationalObserver: Trudeau ministers welcome decriminalization endorsement as opioid crisis deepens

• In British Columbia, far more people have died this year from illicit drug overdoses than from COVID-19. By mid-June, B.C. had recorded 554 deaths from illicit drugs, compared to 186 deaths from coronavirus as of Thursday. May was the deadliest month ever for overdose deaths in the province, a grim milestone.

Drug deaths are likely to continue to increase as a result of the Covid measures, and not from the virus itself.  The lock-downs have caused more anxiety than any virus ever could.

It's important to conquer anxiety/fear. Fear not only distracts from reality, it can weaken one physically and make one more susceptible to illness and seeking solace in all the wrong places.

Don't let others play havoc with your rightful freedoms - and profit from it.

​Masks are big business now; opportunists making money hand-over-fist from your fear of the absolutely dubious (no matter what your politicians tell you) - tricking you into shallow designer-mask mentality.

Canadians who value freedom need to wake up and tell politicians to stuff the mandatory mask decrees. We need to stop encouraging the zombies shuffling along our streets*-- or else change the words of our National Anthem so we're not pathetic liars as well as abject cowards.

One has to realize that there's something else going on here. And that this is just the beginning of creeping totalitarianism in the guise of caring about the health of populations. We're certainly on the road to forced vaccinations that will further enrich the wealthiest among us; personal wealth being the only power respected in these superficial times.

It's also very important to remember that a parent's fear can damage a child's psyche for life.

But cheer up; we've still got Andy rooting for us:

• "You want to know how long I had my mask off yesterday after making a phone call? Come on, that’s ridiculous," Scheer said on Wednesday.

You tell 'em, poster boy. Masks are ridiculous.

REAL experts everywhere are advising cooler heads, rather than a panic (inducing) approach, but politicians and YouTube try to deny their existence.

Here (while it lasts) is yet another voice in the wilderness: YouTube

• Dr. Joel Kettner, former Manitoba Medical Officer of Health and U of Manitoba professor:
• There will be upticks, as there always is with flu, but restrictions should be relaxed.

Comment under Kettner video on how to handle a virus scare:

@Ken Kubesh

Actually, it's quite simple: 

(1) Upon hearing of an outbreak of a new, potentially fatal virus in China, immediately suspend all travel to and from that country. 

(2) Upon learning that this new virus targets the elderly far more than any other age group (and this was known in March), implement procedures to protect long-term care facilities and hospitals, as those locations will house many of the most vulnerable. 

(3) Provide resources as needed for long-term care facilities, hospitals, and those elderly who either live on their own or who are cared for at home by family members. 

(4) Encourage frequent hand washing, as that is the one action which unequivocally reduces disease transmission. (The evidence that social distancing and mask do so is thin at best.) 

(5) And that's it. Leave the economy alone. No lockdowns. No school closures. Etc. These are not needed.

ADVICE FROM YAYA:

Stop being a scaredy cat. The Bible has its uses -- read the Book of Job: "The thing I feared has come upon me". Fear is very hard on the circulatory system and can lead to conditions far worse than flu. And your fear can be capitalized upon by all sorts of opportunists:
