Half of Canadians are within $200 of insolvency: Survey

https://tnc.news/2022/04/18/half-of-canadians-are-within-200-of-insolvency-survey/

As the cost of living becomes more expensive, half of Canadians indicate that they are only $200 away from being unable to pay their bills.

According to an Ipsos survey conducted for the professional service firm MNP, 49% of Canadians surveyed are within $200 of insolvency. Further, 31% of respondents said they are unable to cover their bills because they don’t earn enough income.

Two thousand Canadian adults were surveyed by Ipsos from March 9-15 – a week prior to the Bank of Canada’s (BOC) decision to raise its central rate for the first time since 2018.

The BOC raised interest rates by half a percentage point last week and promised several more hikes in an attempt to fight historically-high inflation.

According to the survey, 52% of Canadians said they were already feeling the effects of high rates prior to the BOC’s decision. Continue…

Fighting sexual exploitation in Canada: MP Arnold Viersen on Bill S-211

https://www.rebelnews.com/fighting_sexual_exploitation_in_canada_mp_arnold_viersen_on_bill_s-211

MP Viersen gives Rebel News an update on his important work in the House of Commons to combat online sex trafficking and sexual exploitation.

Human trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery that exploits innocent people. It’s profitable, it’s vicious, it’s growing, and it’s happening right here in Canada.

February 22 was National Human Trafficking Awareness Day, where Arnold Viersen, Conservative MP for Peace River—Westlock in Alberta, addressed the House of Commons to raise awareness about the horrors of human trafficking. As some of you know, I recently went to Parkland County to cover a Leslyn Lewis Conservative Party leadership campaign event, where I ran into Arnold.

I wanted to talk to him to get an update on his important work in the House of Commons to combat online sex trafficking and sexual exploitation. It's one of those rare issues where MPs from all parties are setting aside differences to work to stop this evil act of dehumanization and commodification of the most vulnerable and Arnold Viersen is one of few people in parliament shining a light on the darkest corners of the internet.

Part of his very important work is to ensure that the NDP-Liberal government in Ottawa does not sneak house arrest for human traffickers into new sentencing guidelines because human traffickers often work out of their homes. But leave it to the Liberals to put harsher sentencing on truckers with bouncy castles than modern-day slave traders.

Joe Rogan giddy with excitement at potential Musk takeover of Twitter

https://www.rebelnews.com/joe_rogan_giddy_with_excitement_at_potential_musk_takeover_of_twitter

Popular podcast host Joe Rogan shared his excitement at the prospect of Elon Musk’s potential purchasing of Twitter, and why society looks to “powerful leaders,” like the Tesla and SpaceX founder for guidance.

“You have to understand, and we all do, somewhere,” Rogan said during the latest episode of The Joe Rogan Experience before giving his thoughts on why people look for leadership in modern society.

“But, you’re alive in the middle of this experience, and it’s playing out, where no one feels comfortable, no one understands what’s happening, no one knows what life really is, no one, not a single person,” Rogan said.

“And yet, we’re all calling upon other people for guidance, and leadership, and support,” he added. “We look to powerful leaders.” Continue…

Western support for Ukraine is helping neo-Nazis (and yes, the Russians are bad too)

https://www.rebelnews.com/western_support_for_ukraine_is_helping_neo_nazis_and_yes_the_russians_are_bad_too

In the strange world of geopolitics, the West has found itself backing neo-Nazis battling Russian aggression in eastern Ukraine.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine has led to Western nations tripping over themselves to provide support to the former Soviet republic.

While Russian aggression is not something to support, the situation in Ukraine is far more confusing than simply saying: Ukraine good, Russia bad.

A prominent portion of the Ukrainian resistance is fuelled by the Azov Battalion, a group of neo-Nazi extremists fighting in the country's eastern Donbas region.

On a recent Rebel News DAILY Livestream, Andrew Chapados and Lewis Brackpool delved into the complexities of geopolitics, which has seen the West directly funding and supporting neo-Nazis simply because they are the enemies of Russia.

Canadian filmmakers are making a documentary on the Freedom Convoy

https://www.rebelnews.com/canadian_filmmakers_are_making_a_documentary_on_the_freedom_convoy

Filmmaker Jeremy Regoto joined the convoy in Calgary and drove all the way to Ottawa, staying in the nation's capital to document the truth about the movement.

I met up with filmmaker Jeremy Regoto and his team, who are making a documentary about the Freedom Convoy in Ottawa and what led up to it.

We spoke about how Jeremy joined the convoy in Calgary and drove all the way to Ottawa, staying in the capital to document the truth about the movement. His hopes are that people will watch his docuseries and understand why people went to Ottawa to protest the COVID mandates and not just believe the mainstream media and government narrative.

The first part of the series will be out on May 1, and then every 45 days the team will be releasing another episode until the end of the year.

You can see the documentary at TruckingForFreedom.com.

Peace officers monitor Calgary freedom protest under anti-honking injunction

https://www.rebelnews.com/peace_officers_monitor_calgary_freedom_protest_under_anti-honking_injunction

As speakers concluded their announcements for the day, protesters took to the sidewalks — not the streets — to begin their usual peaceful walk towards the core of downtown Calgary.

Hundreds and hundreds of Calgarians continue to gather at city hall in order to peacefully protest against the COVID-19 restrictions still impeding their rights and freedoms despite being on week five of Mayor Jyoti Gondek's City of Calgary injunction against protesting.

With almost zero police presence to enforce the heinous rules outlined in the injunction, less than a handful of peace officers could be seen attempting to quickly jot down licence plate numbers from those who honked as they passed the protest, before giving up entirely and resorting to taking pictures from their cellphones instead.

This week, we didn't see anyone getting pulled over and ticketed for daring to honk this time. Continue…

CBC's false Freedom Convoy victim: The end of a saga

https://www.rebelnews.com/cbcs_false_freedom_convoy_victim_the_end_of_a_saga

The third and final chapter in a series that revolved around debunking the CBC's Freedom Convoy victim story — recently uncovered details reveal a much grimmer truth behind it all!

This is the finale in a series of videos on the CBC's false Freedom Convoy victim story — and trust me, it really is a shocking one! If you have yet to see the previous reports, you can do so by clicking here to see the first part, and here for the second one, or by visiting our new webpage, MediaFactCheck.ca.

This highly revealing series partly revolved around the story of Martin Anglehart, a man who claimed to have lost everything and to have been ruined financially following his participation in the Freedom Convoy protests, which took place over three weeks near the Parliament in Ottawa.

The truth about what really happened during these three weeks was heavily manipulated by the mainstream media to support their intended narrative with continuous attempts to demonize and discredit the pro-freedom movement — despite the demonstration being completely peaceful.

Even more than a month later, mainstream media outlets are still doing all they can to find people who would support their version of the events.

That's what happened when the CBC chose Martin Anglehart's story to portray him as an innocent victim of the convoy. They probably weren't expecting other journalists to further investigate the person involved to debunk their story and expose the lies they were spreading.

There was a significant lack of journalistic rigour on their part, as the man in question was in fact an experienced scam artist, manipulator, thief — and even a rapist — who has claimed several victims across Canada over the years.

Freedom train continues to oppose emergency power grabs

https://www.rebelnews.com/freedom_train_continues_to_oppose_emergency_power_grabs

Doug Ford's Keeping Ontario Open for Business Act would essentially prohibit Ontarians from protesting along or on anything that the Government deems as necessary infrastructure.

During a wind warning on Good Friday, freedom loving Ontarians took to the roadways in a self-described “Freedom Train” to continue protesting the government overreach seen through throughout the COVID narrative in Canada. The train began in Ottawa and was headed to Niagara Falls with a few pit stops along the way.

I caught up with the convoy in Oshawa, Ontario.

The Freedom Train came only a day after Doug Ford’s Progressive Conservatives partook in a sneaky overnight voice vote that did not inform all MPPs. It is another Orwellian worded piece of legislation by this government that passed third reading.

Bill 100, titled the Keeping Ontario Open for Business Act, would essentially prohibit Ontarians from protesting along or on anything that the government deems necessary infrastructure.

With nearly 70 vehicles in attendance, I caught up with several members of the Freedom Train to hear their views on this particular bill and ask them why they think it’s important to continue expressing their freedom in defiance of government intrusion through the use of emergency powers.

3 Factors Which Are About To Make The Coming Food Shortages Even Worse

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/3-factors-which-are-about-make-coming-food-shortages-even-worse

A confluence of circumstances has come together to create a “perfect storm” for global food production, and now that “perfect storm” is about to get even worse. For months I warned that this crisis was coming, and in recent weeks I have been documenting how dire conditions have already become all over the globe. The head of the UN World Food Program is warning that this is going to be the worst worldwide food crisis since World War II, and even Joe Biden is admitting that the approaching food shortages “are going to be real”. Unfortunately, there have been some new developments which threaten to significantly escalate things. Continue…

CDC Says Public Transportation Mask Mandate No Longer In Effect

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/federal-judge-declares-biden-admin-mask-mandate-planes-unlawful

Update (2000ET): Bloomberg reports that the CDC says the national mask requirement on public transportation is no longer in effect, citing a Florida court ruling against the measure.

The CDC says it will not enforce the mask order but continues to recommend that people wear masks in indoor public transportation settings.

As a reminder, the U.S. Senate voted 57-40 last month to overturn the public health order requiring masks on airplanes and other forms of public transportation, drawing a veto threat from President Joe Biden.

EU Exhumes 18 Year Old Embezzlement Charges To Derail Le Pen Presidential Bid

https://www.zerohedge.com/political/eu-exhumes-18-year-old-embezzlement-charges-derail-le-pen-presidential-bid

Presumably as part of a deliberate effort to derail her presidential chances, the European Union has exhumed 18-year-old embezzlement charges against Marine Le Pen.

“The EU’s anti-fraud body has accused French far-right leader Marine Le Pen and associates of embezzling around 600,000 euros during their time as MEPs,” reports AFP.

The National Rally leader is personally accused of embezzling “around 137,000 euros ($150,000) worth of public money from the Strasbourg parliament when she was an MEP between 2004 and 2017.”

Le Pen’s lawyer Rodolphe Bosselut dismissed the charges, adding that the “timing” of them was suspicious.

Noting that the report relates to “old facts more than ten years old,” Bosselut highlighted how Le Pen “has not been summoned by any French judicial authority” to answer the charges.

“I’m surprised by the timing of such a strong disclosure and the instrumentalisation,” said Bosselut.

The EU has chosen to resurrect the old claims just days before the final round of the French presidential election, in which Le Pen will face off against incumbent Emmanuel Macron.

Although still a long shot, recent polls had shown Le Pen closing the gap on Macron, causing consternation amongst globalist technocrats.

Given the context, the EU dragging up old charges is clearly an act of election interference intended to tarnish Le Pen before this weekend’s vote.

As we previously highlighted, after Hungary’s Viktor Orban won re-election in a landslide, the EU responded by slapping sanctions on the country as a form of punishment for the electorate exercising their democratic will.

Data shows most COVID deaths occurred after the rollout of vaccines

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/most-covid-deaths-happened-after-jabs-and-mandates/

Millennials suffered a ‘Vietnam event’ in 2021 and Gen-Xers died in record numbers after the vaccines rolled out.

More than 61,000 Millennials and record numbers of Gen-Xers died in 2021 alone, after the Covid vaccines hailed as miracles were rolled out, leaving an unprecedented wake of mortality in the last quarter of the year.

The Millennial generation, aged about 25 to 40, experienced a staggering 84% increase in excess mortality in the fall of 2021, former Blackrock portfolio manager Edward Dowd told Breitbart’s Steve Bannon in an episode of his War Room in March. Dowd described it as the “worst-ever excess mortality, I think, in history.” Continue…

MRNA “DNA Gene Editing” – No Longer A Conspiracy Theory

https://breaking-news.ca/mrna-dna-gene-editing-no-longer-a-conspiracy-theory/

This article will expose lies and omissions by Moderna and “fact-checkers” who dishonestly claimed that mRNA injections cannot change human DNA. I will prove that during this time, Moderna was secretly working behind the scenes to modify human genes.

I recently wrote a series of articles about mRNA COVID “vaccines”, unexpectedly reverse transcribing into human DNA and creating strange DNA genetic codes in human cells, including the code of a p130 tumor gene, as well as a permanent DNA code to produce spike protein.

While this was contrary to the promises of how the “COVID vaccines make harmless spike protein that goes away in 2-3 days”, more and more science experiments confirm that mRNA COVID “vaccines” have far-reaching and disturbing permanent genetic effects.

Since then, I came across new information about Moderna going full speed with commercializing mRNA technology that alters and purposely edits human DNA. https://web.archive.org/web/20220315112604/https://www.fiercebiotech.com/biotech/moderna-finally-cracks-into-gene-editing-metagenomi-pact-thanks-irresistible-data

Places of Worship in Ontario Given ‘Arbitrary and Unequal’ Treatment Throughout Pandemic: Think Tank

https://www.theepochtimes.com/places-of-worship-in-ontario-under-arbitrary-and-unequal-treatment-throughout-covid-19-pandemic-think-tank_4411288.html

Time to amend province's Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act to protect faith communities, policy experts say

COVID-19 restrictions imposed on places of worship were often more stringent than those applied to retail and liquor stores, despite the fact that the freedom of conscience and religion is a fundamental freedom, says a think tank calling for an update to Ontario’s Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act.

“For example, in Step One of Ontario’s Roadmap to Reopen in May 2021, essential retail businesses and liquor stores could operate at 25 percent capacity, while indoor religious services were limited to 10 people regardless of the size of the house of worship,” said Cardus in a press release on April 12.

On May 20, 2021, the Ontario government announced its plan to reopen the province in three phases, with step one expected to proceed in the week of June 14, 2021. The province eventually moved into step one on June 11, 2021, three days ahead of schedule.

In a policy brief titled “Keeping Ontario’s Places of Worship Open During Emergencies,” authors Rev. Dr. Andrew Bennett, director of Cardus Religious Freedom, and Andreae Sennyah, Cardus Policy director, argue that houses of worship faced “unequal and occasionally arbitrary treatment” that “failed to recognize the distinct role of faith communities and the essential nature of public worship.”

“For many religious traditions, public or communal worship is fundamental not optional,” Bennett said in the release. “Governments, of course, may restrict gatherings and limit freedoms during emergencies, like a pandemic. But limits on houses of worship need to be proportionate to limits on other gathering places.”

The authors cited the example of Toronto’s St. Michael’s Cathedral Basilica, which, if the government of Premier Doug Ford had not restricted it to 10 people, would have been able to accommodate 300 people, or 25 percent of its maximum capacity of 1,200 people at any one time for weddings, funerals, and religious services, rites, or ceremonies.

The brief, which examined the restrictions and “differential treatment” faced by faith communities, said provincial officials failed to distinguish the differences between communal worship and retail activities. Continue…

John Robson: The Charter at 40: Empowering the State, Not Protecting Liberty

https://www.theepochtimes.com/john-robson-the-charter-at-40-empowering-the-state-not-protecting-liberty_4408736.html

It is now 40 years since the glorious Charter of Rights and Freedoms sprang full-fledged from the brow of philosopher-king Pierre Elliot Trudeau, created Canada from some rather nasty foam bobbing about from sea to shining C-minus, and gave us sweet-smelling liberty where all had been sick-making darkness. Or so I gather from the retrospectives, though I’m having a bit of trouble reconciling that particular golden bough with the sour, wormy fruit before me.

A person called the Governor General just tootled at me, “On April 17, 1982, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II proclaimed the Constitution Act, 1982… For the first time in our country’s history, our rights and freedoms were enshrined in our constitution.” So that whole Magna Carta/Glorious Revolution business was just a load of old fish heads, and when Canada’s Founders spoke proudly about preserving liberty they were thinking of something else.

BC to Require Health-Care Professionals to Disclose COVID-19 Vaccination Status to Regulating Bodies

https://www.theepochtimes.com/bc-pushes-for-health-care-professionals-to-disclose-covid-19-vaccination-status-to-regulating-bodies_4411014.html

Health officials in British Columbia are going ahead with requiring all regulated health professionals to disclose their vaccination status to their respective regulatory colleges, though the province has recently abolished a rule that would require them to be vaccinated against COVID-19 to stay on their jobs.

Provincial Health Officer Bonnie Henry said earlier in April that she wants to give comfort to patients when they choose which medical professionals to see in the community, reported The Globe and Mail.

In a statement, the Office of the Provincial Health Officer (PHO) said it “is taking steps to support people in B.C. to make informed decisions about their own care with respect to whether or not to see an unvaccinated health provider in private practice in the community.”

“The purposes of this PHO order are to determine the level of vaccination in each health profession as a whole and to understand the distribution of vaccination in health professionals across the province.”

Henry had issued an order on March 7 requiring B.C.’s health practitioners to register their vaccination status with their respective health regulatory bodies by March 31, saying that an unvaccinated registrant who provides services “puts persons at risk of infection” with COVID-19, and “constitutes a health hazard.”

The order covers 26 regulated health professions governed by 18 colleges in the province. Continue…

Chinese Firm to Acquire 13 Percent of Canadian Lithium Company for $5 Million

https://www.theepochtimes.com/chinese-firm-to-acquire-13-percent-of-canadian-lithium-company-for-5-million_4412314.html

A Chinese firm that specializes in industrial explosives is planning to acquire a more than 10 percent stake in a Canadian lithium company for $5 million.

On April 17, China-based company Sichuan Yahua Industrial Group Co. Ltd. (Yahua Group) announced its plan to acquire 13.2 percent of Ultra Lithium Inc., a Vancouver-based lithium and gold exploration firm, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Yahua International Investment and Development Co. Ltd.

The deal signed between the two companies will also see Yahua International acquiring a 60 percent stake in a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ultra Lithium that has two lithium mining projects in Ontario, at Forgan Lake and Georgia Lake.

Due to the local geology, Yahua Group said the two projects offer high potential for the discovery of large spodumene deposits. Spodumene is an essential source of lithium used in ceramics, cellphones, and car batteries, among several uses.

The joint venture will see the construction of a lithium concentrate mining and processing plant with the capacity to produce 200,000 tons of lithium oxide a year for at least the first 10 years of operation, a capacity that could subsequently be doubled following that first phase, according to Yahua Group.

The company, based in Chengdu, the capital of Sichuan Province in China, added that the deal will help secure its upstream resources in the lithium sector. The board of directors of the joint venture will have five members, three of whom will be nominated by Yahua International and two by Ultra Lithium.

This acquisition of a Canadian lithium-mining firm by a China-based company follows another such acquisition earlier this year, this time by a state-owned company.

Chinese state-owned enterprise Zijin Mining Group Co. Ltd. announced in January that it had completed its acquisition of Toronto-based Neo Lithium Corp. Continue…

Every aspect of the Covid crisis has come with evidence of prescience and pre-planning. “Plandemic” is one of the most adequate buzzwords I’ve ever heard.

If it’s all planned, the release was planned too, which makes the current debate over the Covid origin retarded. If the cause was a virus (another oxy-moronic debate around “isolation in cultures”), then it didn’t come from animals, it didn’t escape from a lab, it was DISTRIBUTED. Whatever it was, virus, poison, psychosis, EMFs, it was DISTRIBUTED.

Defence expert tells government to worry about missiles, not disinformation

https://tnc.news/2022/04/19/defence-expert-tells-government-to-worry-about-missiles-not-disinformation/

A defence expert has told a parliamentary safety committee that threats of disinformation from Russia and China are “highly overblown and exaggerated” and that the government should focus on Canada’s real vulnerabilities, like those involving nuclear strikes.

Deputy Director of the University of Manitoba’s Centre for Defence and Security Studies James Fergusson told the Commons public safety committee on Apr. 4 that the threat posed by disinformation had been overemphasized and that government attempts to censor perceived misinformation would “definitely…backfire.”

“I think it’s very important that the committee and the government do not overreact, if not go into panic, with regard to existing vulnerabilities both in the cyberworld and defence world of Canada from Russian capabilities,” said Fergusson.

“In terms of disinformation, I’m not one who believes that Russian disinformation, Chinese disinformation or anyone’s disinformation campaigns really have much of an effect at all. I think that’s highly overblown and exaggerated.”

Fergusson said that defence priorities should focus on deterring first strike nuclear capabilities and enforcing current systems like NORAD.

“We have significant gaps and vulnerabilities which have existed for over a decade in terms of the ability of NORAD, and as a result Canada, to be able to detect these threats, to track them, to discriminate, and then to be able to cue interception capabilities,” said Fergusson. Continue…

Ontario Liberals say they will ban all handguns if elected

https://tnc.news/2022/04/19/ontario-liberals-say-they-will-ban-all-handguns-if-elected/

Ontario Liberal Party Leader Steven Del Duca has said that if he is elected premier of Ontario in the upcoming election, he will move to ban law-abiding Canadians from possessing handguns in the province.

According to Del Duca, the ban would be a top priority for the Liberals if they won power. He vowed to put it in place within a year of being in government.

“I’ve had it with Doug Ford’s open for business policy for guns,” said Del Duca on Tuesday. “The Ford Conservatives are putting the interests of the gun lobby ahead of the Ontario victims of gun crime they swore an oath to protect. The result is handgun violence is spiraling out of control.”

“The choice on handguns is clear, more handguns and gun crime under the Ford Conservatives or a ban on handguns under the Ontario Liberals.”

Handguns are strictly regulated across the country. Canadians are currently required by law to carry a restricted licence to legally possess the firearm. Those who are licensed to possess handguns must also follow special requirements that dictate storage, display, transportation and handling.

Handguns can only be carried by those with special permits, including peace officers, and they cannot be used for hunting. Continue…

GUEST OP-ED: With a major cash infusion, Ford must balance the books by next year

https://tnc.news/2022/04/19/guest-op-ed-with-a-major-cash-infusion-ford-must-balance-the-books-by-next-year/

Jay Goldberg is Ontario Director at the Canadian Taxpayers Federation

Imagine Ontario premier Doug Ford driving down a highway. The road is about to end in a fork. Now Ford must decide whether to head north or south.

If Ford goes north, he can get Ontario’s finances in order and finally end a years-long provincial deficit streak. But if Ford goes south, he can announce billions of dollars’ worth of new spending and allow the province to continue to barrel toward a fiscal cliff.

According to Ontario’s Financial Accountability Office (FAO) – an independent watchdog that keeps track of government spending – Ford can balance the books as soon as next year with just a little bit of restraint.

But to achieve that outcome, Ford needs to pick the right path.

How did Ontario reach this historic fork in the road?

It all started sixteen years ago.

When former finance minister Greg Sorbara presented Ontario’s last balanced budget, Ontario’s debt stood at $143 billion. After sixteen years of reckless fiscal management, Ontario’s debt now stands at $440 billion.

Ontario is now the most indebted sub-national government in the world.

That’s right – worse than New York state and worse than California. Continue…

Government Charter of Rights conference concludes with sharp words for panelists

Now vaccine-injured, former believer speaks out

https://www.rebelnews.com/now_vaccine-injured_former_believer_speaks_out

Trina Huss of Saskatchewan believed she would die without receiving the COVID vaccine.

As we continue to hear crickets from mainstream media about the reactions that Canadians are suffering from as a result of COVID-19 injections, more and more people are questioning the accuracy of legacy media.

A mere few months ago, 47-year-old Saskatchewan resident Trina Huss was an avid mainstreamist. She relied on the mainstream media as her daily news source and was terrified into submission by their incessant and exaggerated COVID reporting. The focused reporting on the idea of long COVID while completely ignoring the vaccine reactions that are happening.

Trina chose to get vaccinated because she thought she would die if she didn’t. But after receiving her first Moderna dose, all of her pre-existing health conditions were exasperated. The pain that Trina experiences has been so severe that it has landed in her local emergency department multiple times. She now finds herself completely unable to work and struggles to keep up with the maintenance of her home due to the constant pain and inflammation.

Now that she has also recovered from natural COVID infection, Trina points out the inconsistencies in the justification behind the vaccine program.

Still, Trina has not had her reaction documented and has not received an exemption from further vaccine mandates.

LEAKED RECORDING: AstraZeneca CEO: Millions of Immunocompromised People Can’t Be Vaccinated… Antibody Treatment Has Enormous Potential (VIDEO)

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/04/leaked-recording-astrazeneca-ceo-millions-immunocompromised-people-cant-vaccinated-antibody-treatment-enormous-potential-video/

Project Veritas on Tuesday released a leaked recording from 2020 showing AstraZeneca CEO Pascal Soriot Saying, ‘Millions of [immunocompromised] people can’t be vaccinated…antibody [treatment] has enormous potential.’

“Like if you have an immune disease, lupus, or some other immune condition, you cannot – or multiple sclerosis, you can’t be vaccinated. So, there are millions of people in the world that will need a protection that cannot be coming from a vaccine. So, the longer antibody has enormous potential,” Soriot said on a December 2020 company-wide Zoom call.

“The long-acting antibody is quite unique because this is the only combination potentially will last more than six months, up to potentially 12 months and protect people for a long period of time,” he said.

Ron DeSantis Threatens to Hold Twitter’s Board of Directors Accountable for Breaching Fiduciary Duty

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2022/04/ron-desantis-threatens-hold-twitters-board-directors-accountable-breaching-fiduciary-duty/

On Tuesday Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced he was calling on the Special Session to file legislation to terminate all special districts that were enacted in Florida prior to 1968 and removal of exemptions from the big tech accountability law.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed into law HB 1557 last month, a measure that forbids instruction on sexual orientation and gender identity to children in grades pre-K through grade 3.

Then early this month, Abigail Disney, heiress to the Disney fortune, attacked conservatives for criticizing the company’s “woke” turn.

Bizarrely, she claimed “the large majority of Americans” don’t support “anti-woke” conservatives.

The Florida Legislature will be meeting this week to consider the congressional reapportionment plan for Florida for the next ten years. Gov. Ron DeSantis consider getting rid of special districts enacted before 1968.

But Governor DeSantis was not done yet. The Florida governor then threatened to hold Twitter’s Board of Directors accountable for breaching their fiduciary duty by activating a “poison pill” to thwart Elon Musk’s attempted acquisition of the company.

The leftists at Twitter don’t support free speech and would rather see the company suffer than allow the Constitutional right on their platform.

Canadian Police for Freedom Demand Criminal Investigations for Covid Crimes

https://drtrozzi.org/2022/04/19/canadian-police-for-freedom-demand-criminal-investigations-for-covid-crimes/

A detailed report and demand for criminal investigation into federal and provincial authorities

Police for Freedom is an international organization of active duty and retired police as well as other emergency service professionals and citizens. The organization formed in response to the covid-19 crimes against humanity with the intention of returning the rule of law and human rights to society.

Police for Freedom has a Canadian division with chapters in multiple provinces. My home province of Ontario’s chapter is headed by my respected friend and ally Vincent Gircy.

Police for Freedom Canada has directed a detailed 88 page letter to Manitoba Police Forces demanding and justifying (in detail) a criminal investigation into Public Health officials in Manitoba for alleged covid-19 crimes. The letter is very enlightening and contains details of law, police oath and duties, Health Canada statistics, and an extensive appendix of government and scientific documents. Continue…

Forgotten victims: countless people suffering adverse effects after PCR nasal swab "tests" which are no longer authorized for COVID testing

PCR and those experimental nasal swabs were a normal part of life for most Americans' lives in 2020-21. Most who cooperated with the invasive testing procedures lined up for the experimental mRNA and viral vector DNA injections. No telling how many Americans received at least one swab. But that's all it takes to cause potential short and long-term damage.

Dutch Leader Warns: ‘The New World Order Is upon Us – We Are All in Grave Danger’

https://newspunch.com/dutch-leader-warns-the-new-world-order-is-upon-us-we-are-all-in-grave-danger/

Dutch leader Thierry Baudet has warned that the ‘New World Order’ is now upon and has urged the public to recognize the grave danger it poses to human life.

Baudet, founder and leader of the Dutch party Forum for Democracy (FvD), runs a YouTube channel covering topics the mainstream media shy away from. In his latest video, “What’s Wrong With The West?” he addresses problems plaguing the West and identifies the three major trends responsible for what we are witnessing today: immigration, supranational legislation, and climate change.

Anonymouswire.com reports: Thierry explains that these trends have emerged from Marxist ideology, sold to the public as a higher and utopian state of existence, but that is eventually dystopian and doomed to fail. He further illustrates that we, as humans, are beings in need of a sense of community but that these three major Globalist projects are undermining this very foundation of our humanity. Continue…

Civil liberties groups demand inquiry into Trudeau’s use of emergency powers against Freedom Convoy

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/civil-liberties-groups-demand-independent-public-inquiry-into-trudeaus-use-of-emergency-powers-against-freedom-convoy/

The organizations want an independent investigation into 'the use of state and police powers to suppress constitutional rights.'

A group of 15 civil liberties organizations demanded an open “public” independent inquiry be held to scrutinize Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau shutting down the trucker Freedom Convoy though the use of the Emergencies Act (EA).

As reported by Blacklock’s Reporter, late last week the civil liberties organizations argued together in a joint petition that it is concerned about “the use of state and police powers to suppress constitutional rights.”

The group is also concerned that such an inquiry into the use of the EA could be “marred by partisan fights.”

Cara Zwibel, who serves as the director for the Canadian Civil Liberties Association (CCLA) of Toronto, said as reported by Blacklock’s Reporter that the Trudeau government “may have an incentive to keep” any inquiries “secretive and closed.”

Zwibel said that the group wants to “avoid” the inquiry into the use of the EA from happening only behind closed doors, noting that it should be “a public process” as well.

Having a federal inquiry into the matter petitioned the civil liberty groups should be a process that is “designed around the pillars of transparency, openness and meaningful accountability.” Continue…

Netflix Nightmare: Stock Craters, 200K Subscribers Loss, Predicts Losing 2 Million More This Year

https://breaking-news.ca/netflix-nightmare-stock-craters-200k-subscribers-loss-predicts-losing-2-million-more-this-year/

Netflix is facing what can only be described as a nightmare scenario as customers continue to abandon the far-left streaming entertainment giant in droves, threatening the company’s financial stability.

“It’s a glorious sight to behold seeing ObamaFlix sink like a stone.”

Shares of Netflix plummeted more than 20 percent in after-hours trading Tuesday after the streamer reported catastrophic results for the first quarter.

Source: Netflix Nightmare: Stock Craters, 200K Subscribers Loss, Predicts Losing 2 Million More This Year

So far this year, Netflix shares are down a staggering 55 percent.

Netflix, which still has a production deal with Barack and Michelle Obama, said it lost 200,000 subscribers for the first quarter of the year — a huge miss for the company, which had expected to add 2.5 million subscribers.

Even more troublesome, leaders are forecasting Netflix will lose a whopping 2 million more subscribers this spring — potentially the largest quarterly loss of customers in its history.

The guidance paints a bleak financial outlook for Netflix, whose main revenue stream is paying customers.

In a letter to investors, Netflix blamed password sharing and increased competition from other streamers including Disney+ and Amazon Prime Video for what it euphemistically called “revenue growth headwinds.”

Netflix recently began cracking down in earnest on password sharing, which reportedly costs the company billions of dollars a year. Among its strategies is to charges subscribers who share their passwords with people outside of their households.

On Tuesday, Netflix made no reference to customers who have grown increasingly alienated by its woke content and close Democratic party affiliations. Netflix’s top executives backed the campaigns of President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, as well as those of radical leftists like Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon, whose soft-on-crime policies have led to a spike in homicides and other violent crimes.

Netflix also failed to mention recent price hikes for all domestic subscribers, with its premium plan rising from $17.99 to $19.99 a month.

Last quarter, the company failed to meet subscriber expectations, prompting a mass sell-off in its stock.

Global Food Crisis: IMF Warns of Unrest Amid Food Supply Shortages

https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2022/04/20/global-food-crisis-imf-warns-of-unrest-amid-food-supply-shortages/

The IMF has become the most recent global body to release a warning regarding potentially forthcoming global food shortages, saying that vulnerable nations are at risk of civil unrest amid supply issues.

Civil unrest linked to sky-high food prices is on the cards for poorer countries, the IMF has warned amid fears that the world could be heading into a global food crisis as a result of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.

Amid past warnings of starvation and “Hell on Earth” migrant crises over a lack of food, the international finance body has predicted that growth across the world will be negatively affected, with poorer nations in particular to feel the brunt of the ongoing crisis.

According to a post on the organisation’s website, a mix of high inflation and supply problems are to greatly slow economic growth across the world, with vulnerable economies, in particular, to be hit with the brunt of the hardship Continue…

Naked ‘Family Sex Show’ for Five Year Old Children Cancelled After Backlash

https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2022/04/20/naked-family-sex-show-for-five-year-olds-cancelled-after-backlash/

A leftist theatre troupe has cancelled their scheduled performance of the “Family Sex Show” for children as young as five years old featuring nudity and covering topics such as sex and LGBT theories on gender following an intense backlash from the public.

On Tuesday, it was announced that the “Family Sex Show”, which was scheduled to be staged at the Tobacco Factory Theatre in Bristol and The Egg Theatre in Bath, England in May, has been cancelled, with organisers claiming to have received “unprecedented threats and abuse”.

The theatre troupe ThisEgg described their show as a “fun and silly performance about the painfully AWKWARD subject of sex, exploring names and functions, boundaries, consent, pleasure, queerness, sex, gender and relationships”.

Organisers suggested that the show would be suitable for children as young as five, despite featuring naked performers and covering sex in detail.

The group’s website also hosts a glossary of terminology to supposedly educate children on sexual concepts, including terms such as “hand job”, “squirting”, and “cum”.

Touting their leftist bona fides, the show claimed to be informed by an “intersectional, feminist, non-binary, anti-racist & sex-positive take on Relationships and Sex Education.” Continue…

Fans Claim Thor Is ‘Gay as Hell’ After ‘Love and Thunder’ Trailer Reveal: ‘Thor Is Gay! We Won’

https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2022/04/19/fans-claim-thor-is-gay-as-hell-after-love-and-thunder-trailer-reveal-thor-is-gay-we-won/

Fans are claiming Marvel superhero Thor is “gay as hell” after the trailer for Thor: Love and Thunder was revealed on Monday. “THOR IS GAY !!!!!!!! WE WON,” another fan exclaimed.

At one point in the film’s trailer, Thor (Chris Hemsworth) is seen staring –or, at least he’s trying to — into the eyes of Star-Lord (Chris Pratt), which caused some fans to question Thor’s sexuality.

“Remember what I told you, if you ever feel lost: just look into the eyes of the people that you love,” Pratt’s character says to Hemsworth’s character in the trailer, to which Hemsworth reacts by staring directly into Pratt’s eyes.

Fans took to Twitter to express their excitement over the idea that Thor may be having a “gay awakening” in the new film.

“‘look into the eyes of the people you love’ oh thor you gay as hell,” one Twitter user reacted.

“thor: love & thunder is a gays only event,” another tweeted.

“Thor’s gay awakening!” another Twitter user exclaimed.

“THOR IS GAY !!!!!!!! WE WON,” another reacted.

“the words in the title r literally the colours of the gay flag gay thor is so Real,” another Twitter user wrote. Continue…

Green Group Scolds Hollywood for Not Pushing Out Enough Climate Propaganda

https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2022/04/19/hollywood-given-woke-playbook-on-climate-change-told-to-lift-disaster-narratives/

Hollywood screenwriters have been scolded by a green group and urged to improve their narrative on “climate change” by embracing the group’s playbook released Tuesday designed to enhance correct thinking on global warming.

The result will see more climate activism than ever before on screens large and small while not necessarily imitating the The Day After Tomorrow (2004), the most famous example of a climate disaster film when the planet is beset by superstorms, hurricanes and tsunamis.

The new call is for subtle messages built around key words and scenarios.

Only a sliver of screen fiction, 2.8 perhaps, refers to climate change-related words, according to a study of 37,453 film and TV scripts from 2016-20 that is the basis for the climate guide, AP reports.

Good Energy: A Playbook for Screenwriting in the Age of Climate Change is designed to address that.

It was created with feedback from more than 100 film and TV writers, said Anna Jane Joyner, editor-in-chief of the playbook and founder of Good Energy, a nonprofit consultancy.

“A big hurdle that we encountered was that writers were associating climate stories with apocalypse stories,” she said in an interview with AP. “The main purpose of the playbook is to expand that menu of possibilities….to a larger array of how it would be showing up in our real life.”

Bloomberg Philanthropies, Sierra Club and the Walton Family Foundation are just three of the groups that provided funding for the guide even as viewers over the past decade and a half have been bombarded by movies based on climate change: Continue…

Convoy Protester Pat King Faces New Charges of Perjury, Obstruction of Justice

https://www.theepochtimes.com/freedom-convoy-protester-pat-king-faces-new-charges-of-perjury-and-obstruction-of-justice_4414396.html

The Crown laid additional charges on Tuesday against Pat King, the last of the high-profile trucker convoy protesters to remain behind bars.

King was charged with three counts of perjury and three counts of obstruction of justice.

These now pile on the 10 other previously laid charges, including mischief, intimidation, obstructing police, and disobeying a court order.

King was arrested on Feb. 18 in Ottawa on the first day of the police clearing operation of the convoy protest, after the federal government invoked the Emergencies Act on Feb. 14.

Unlike other protesters charged in relation to the same event, King has yet to secure bail.

King has had trouble retaining a lawyer, and at a bail hearing on April 13 he was represented by attorney David Goodman, but the latter’s computer was apparently hacked during the hearing.

He has now retained the services of criminal defence attorney Natasha Calvinho.

Steeve Charland, who was involved on the Gatineau side of the protest, was released on March 21 on a $22,000 bond, and convoy organizer Tamara Lich was released on March 7 on a $25,000 bond. Chris Barber was released a day after his arrest on Feb. 17 on a reported $100,000 bond. All have severe bail conditions such as refraining from using social media or contacting protest organizers.

Keith Wilson, a lawyer representing the Freedom Convoy, has said that King was not one of the organizers of the protest.

“I can confirm that the legal lawsuit relating to the injunction was framed as though Pat King is part of the Freedom Convoy, and I confirmed in writing to the personal injury lawyer and I made representations directly to the court to confirm that … these folks, the Freedom Convoy, have no affiliation with Mr. King whatsoever,” Wilson said at a press conference on Feb. 6.

“These folks” was a reference to the individuals sitting beside him, Daniel Bulford, Tamara Lich, and Benjamin Dichter. Bulford was arrested but not charged, and Dichter was never arrested.

The injunction relates to a civil suit that was initiated against protest organizers by an Ottawa resident.

King’s social media posts and participation in the protest have been used by opponents to paint the movement as fringe and extremist.

In a video reportedly posted online on Dec. 16, King can be heard saying “the only way this is going to be solved is with bullets.” It’s unclear what “this” refers to.

During a meeting of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Public Safety on Feb. 25, Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicino said Convoy organizers and leaders of the movement have publicly made statements calling for the overthrow of the government with violence and “through the use of bullets.”

Mendicino didn’t specify whether he was alluding to that video of King in particular.

Meanwhile, Freedom Convoy organizers have always insisted their movement was committed to non-violence and that every allegation of dangerous or violent acts by protesters in Ottawa has remained unproven or debunked, such as the presence of loaded firearms or involvement in arson.

BC Poultry Farmers Uniquely Equipped to Respond to Possible Avian Flu

https://www.theepochtimes.com/b-c-poultry-farmers-uniquely-equipped-to-respond-to-possible-avian-flu_4416128.html

Poultry farmers in British Columbia are under pressure to protect their flocks as a highly contagious strain of avian flu sweeps over North America.

Ray Nickel, spokesman for the B.C. Poultry Association Emergency Operations Centre, says they’ll use the lessons learned to prevent infections after two severe outbreaks since 2004 that forced them to cull millions of birds.

The H5N1 strain of avian flu is highly pathogenic and can cause serious disease and death in birds, says the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.

Nickel, a commercial poultry farmer in Abbotsford and member of the BC Chicken Marketing Board, said farmers are worried after a case of avian flu was confirmed on a North Okanagan farm last week.

“It’s so virulent, and there’s a degree of concern that we have for our animals because the impact is so severe,” he said. “I feel for my peers in the other provinces that are experiencing it in a more significant way than we are at this point, but it does elicit an amount of fear in us that just isn’t very comfortable.”

Outbreaks of the same strain have also been detected in Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Saskatchewan and Alberta.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency said last week this has been an unprecedented year globally for avian flu. It said it believes migratory birds are responsible for the outbreaks, and expects there will be more cases as flocks continue to fly north for the summer.

Previous outbreaks in B.C. and elsewhere in Canada led to the destruction of millions of birds. The most serious was a 2004 outbreak in the Fraser Valley, where the H7N3 strain spread to 42 commercial farms and 11 backyard coops, prompting federal officials to order a cull of about 17 million birds.

Nickel said B.C. operations are uniquely equipped to respond to potential outbreaks because of their past experiences. Continue…
