Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

As I found out in the past two weeks here in Edmonton, claiming an exemption and not wearing a mask can make one a target for all sorts of trouble.
I mentioned this to one of my neighbours earlier today. Her opinion was that people are scared. No, that’s not it. It’s the sense of self-importance and the belief that one is doing one’s duty (bestowed, encouraged, and rewarded by the government) that’s caused this to happen.
Oddly enough, they do it without reward, which means the government is getting off cheap. I would have thought that it would be offering prizes for that sort of thing. (“Turn in 5 mask scofflaws and enter your name in the draw for a free trip to Hawaii.”)
I never thought that I’d ever see the say in which turning on one’s fellow citizen would be considered an act of patriotism.
Mask shaming ain’t nothing what vaccine shaming gonna be.
What I found out already is that people think nothing’s wrong when someone is publicly attacked for not wearing a mask. Instead of being indignant that someone’s privacy has been violated, they firmly believe that person deserved that treatment.
My love for my fellow man is rapidly diminishing.
I saw someone at the grocery store the other day without a mask and a T-shirt that said “I have a severe respiratory condition so F*CK OFF”. Brave lad.
A number of the larger venues have now amended their policies to say that if you can’t wear a mask, you have to wear a “face shield”. Aside from protecting the salad from random sneezing I can’t see how those do anything at all.
“Aside from protecting the salad from random sneezing I can’t see how those do anything at all.”
That’s all the surgical masks are intended to do. They are worthless against either the extrusion or intrusion of aerosols. Wearing a surgical mask as a barrier to aerosols has been likened to erecting a chain link fence as a barrier to mosquitoes.
Note that liquid gasoline is converted to an aerosol that can be properly combusted in a car cylinder by forcing it through a fine mesh.
As I like to point out to be, the “second wave” started just ta few weeks after masks were mandated. Clearly masks don’t work.
Thing is though, we are being lied to about the seriousness of this disease cause by innacurate PCR tests.
Where the the mounds of dead piled up in the streets? They are in the nursing homes, that’s where. How many nursing home residents pop out the the pub or restaurant or go shopping every week?
“No, that’s not it. It’s the sense of self-importance and the belief that one is doing one’s duty (bestowed, encouraged, and rewarded by the government) that’s caused this to happen.”
Exactly. It is the Stanford Prison Experiment again. Except it no longer is an experiment.
It’s as if anybody who has an axe to grind against someone else is now using this phony-baloney plague as an opportunity to get revenge.
Does your neighbour have a fancier car than you and you can’t afford a better one? Invent some infraction of the “law” and that same neighbour can’t drive it while in jail. Live with the smug satisfaction that you screwed him and got away with it.
I’m not making this up. I experienced that mentality while I was at Armpit College.
I’ve worked with a number of eastern European ex-pat software developers who emigrated after the fall.
This is exactly how things worked in Communist countries.
Been there, grew up in it.
Same here.
The good thing for the snitches is that the accuser need not face the accused.
The domain of cowards has become a vast terrain.
We have the “Human Rights” Tribunals.
We have the new alcohol laws where they can charge you for drinking and driving two hours after the non-event.
We have “hate” speech laws that prohibit criticism of POC’s and women.
If you dare to show any type of emotion or disagree within any bureaucratic institution you’ll be arrested and charged.
The whole place is sick.
If you dare to show any type of emotion or disagree within any bureaucratic institution you’ll be arrested and charged.
Yup. I found out about that in the past few days, though I was only threatened with expulsion. Any sign of disagreement, anything less than unbridled enthusiasm can be seen a belligerence or disrespect for other people.
Having watched this COVID hysteria get more and more out of control over the months I now understand how Dictators and Despots like Pol Pot, Robert Mugabe, Kim IL Sung, Hugo Chavez and others, to name a few, were able to do what they did to their people and their countries. They were able to do it with the full support of the people they later would destroy, because those people wanted to be a part of something that would make them feel important and powerful. In their minds power and importance is so much more valuable than thinking for yourself and doing what is best in the long term. It is much easier to join the mob. Because in the mob there is no need to think or do, just react.
C.S. Lewis hit the nail squarely on the head when he wrote,
“Of all the tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under Robber Barons than under omnipotent moral busy bodies. The Robber Barons cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated but those that torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience”.
They are breaking the will of the people, the same as the NAZI’s broke the Jews before they destroyed them….Keep lists.
Nice try bigots. The maskgrupenfuhers will find you wherever you are. There will be no questioning the regime. My friend just recently was arrested for having someone in for tea. If any of the other neighbors fall out of line I’ll call them in too.
Please don’t defund cops. Anything but that.
Any business calling law enforcement on their customers should think twice, is the government going to be there for them after the pandemic? Nope. Government is broke.
Rats are being encouraged to rat out their neighbours, will the government be there to help push the rat’s car out of a snow bank? Nope again. Rats will get the middle finger.
Politicians, journalists, doctors, and bureaucrats are thoroughly enjoying their exercise of raw power over their subjects, they really seem to delight in forcing others to comply.
If we had any Opposition politicians in this country, then you would think they could destroy these bastards for ruining so many lives with their fascist policies, let’s keep our fingers crossed that the pandemic brings out some good people who are willing to take on all these sons of bitches.
As Malice is fond of saying; “They want you dead but will settle for your submission”.
I am sick of commenting on this crap . Either fight back physically or bend over and take it.
For some unfathomable reason, our governments believe once the vaccine is here, one shot and your cured.
Just by the doses their buying tells you that this is what they are thinking when in actual fact, this virus is here like the flu. To be constantly needing a booster.
Also, they haven’t checked that you get this shot, you can now spread the virus as your body is generating the antibodies.
So, welcome to the new normal…
I would point out that Moderna, a COVID vaccine creator, is only willing to commit to an immunity of 3 months in public so you will not be getting shot once for lifetime immunity, but whenever the elites need to re-assert control.
https://www.foxnews.com/health/moderna-coronavirus-vaccine-immunity-3-months
Yep, on CJME or Gormley, they make it out that once you get a vaccine shot, that’ll be the end of the Wuhan Flu.
Everybody wants the vaccine,,, just wait till they find out they have to get a double shot twice a year, or three times, or even four times a year ! The enthusiasm for the vaccine will drop quickly.
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family?
Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?… The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If…if…We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation…. We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.” — Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn
Oh come on!
Be real.
Your Canadian neighbors will be holding the door for the Security Operatives, most likely having called them.
The new Canadian Stazi will dwarf its communist predecessor in numbers and enthusiasm.
Testicles will be in short supply as usual, as will be the gender that used to have them.
The on bended knee to the King Loyalist ancestry will make a comeback, although newly feminized Canada prefers a Princess.
I’m surprised we even have a military, such as it is, but wouldn’t be surprised if the largest segment is psychological and psychiatric support.
The funniest thing I could ever imagine is a mandatory military service in Canada.
Someone get that comedy on film.
I suspect laughter will soon be in short supply.
Our Government and media keep saying that once this Pandemic is over, we will be back to an open society which is an absolute lie!
I guess on the flip side, since we haven’t really changed anything in this system and kept it the same, the government credit will run out that much faster as they keep dumping in more and more money into this system.
we will have to stand up and die on our feet or die on or knees.
I suspect that Canadians will die as i have watched them live, on their knees.
The virus will be replaced with the next manufactured crisis. I’m thinking we only need one guess for that one.
Looking at what is being loaded into the foreign policy end of the probable Biden administration, I suspect the next “crisis” will be military, middle eastern, and to the benefit of someone other than America. The more things change….etc etc…
I’m thinking that “new” virus are being introduced with every flight in from Chinah, or Iran which were the early sources. Today, could be anywhere Chinah flies, then connects. Gotta keep things bubbling along, right? Anybody checking on that? CTV, CBC, GLOBBLE? Beuhler? There are no forced quarantines for arrivals today, or since back in January. Check Flight Aware, you’re just sitting on your asses outta work anyhow. You can’t walk or drive across that US border, but flying OVER isn’t a hindrance, just “self isolate” 14 days. Again is anyone checking….seriously. Roxham Road is doing a roaring business all along. The CBSA have hidden “camps” for new arrivals, visitors or prying eyes verboten. Check REBEL News, Keenan Bexte. You’ll never see those CTV/CBC/GLOBBLE talking heads around the place, “investigating”.
Strange that there are more “cases” now (wtf are “cases” and do you believe the crap that you’re being fed?) than way back when whiny Injuns blocked our railways with impunity. It’s rather shadenfreudish, dontcha think now, that Injun territory are just now getting their just deserts vis a vis cough, cough….. COVID? Check the map: https://www.alberta.ca/stats/covid-19-alberta-statistics.htm ………do some digging. Check where the reserves are. My heart bleeds for them. Really.
Anyone heard that vitamin C + Zinc (natural or synthetic), vitamin D (sunlight or pill form) are an effective prophylactic? CHEAP and in the case of sunlight, FREE. Oh, Trump said that, so screw that and go with Billionaire Drug Inc. “vaccines” only good for a max THREE MONTHS with the Chinah BIO WEAPON ’cause that’s what COVID is. Have to re-inject every 3 months $$$$$$$$$$$. Blackie gets a cut of the action into the T-Foundation. Betcha.
Now cue UNME/AllenS/TimG to spew his crap on this. I’m gonna time him.
No, I’m just gettin’ warmed up. I don’t know who went to this place, William Howard Taft, William Jennings Bryan, William Tell, whoever. Their spirit is dead, if they ever had one. It’s gone. You’re building a rat ship here. A vessel for seagoing snitches, and if you think you’re preparing these minnows for manhood, you better think again, because I say you are killing the very spirit this institution proclaims it instills. What a sham. What kind of a show you guys are putting on here today? I mean, the only class in this act is sitting next to me, and I’m here to tell ya this boy’s soul is intact. It’s non-negotiable. You know how I know? Someone here, and I’m not gonna say who, offered to buy it. Only Charlie here wasn’t selling.
Al Pacino, from Scent of a Woman, we are building a rat ship.
Some people post selfies of themselves online wearing a mask to virtue signal. It’s deliberate. It’s not a big step for them to call 911 on people who aren’t wearing.
It’s been reported that Regina and Saskatoon, each have had roughly 1300 cases of people squealing on other people or businesses.
Must have been those Eastern Canadian Socialists again.
Reading all the posts here, one thing that seems to have been forgotten.
CHINA – We have to make them pay.
Ok, I was laughing but it does not need explaining, China owns Canada.
Don’t worry.
Junior’s got it covered.
He’s running up a huge tab and is going to stiff the Commies.
I’m pretty sure they’ll never take your stuff he used as security.
I know that bar very well, why do I get the feeling there is much more to this story then what is being reported? I wear a mask only to make others feel better around me, and, at bars and restaurants I wear the mask so the Owners of the establishment and all the people who work there can continue to work, pretty sure the rise in cases with 99% of the population wearing masks prove they really don’t work that well, however, if it keeps places open I’ll wear one. I’ll wait to see if what really happened at that Bar is what really happened.
I had a woman (complete stranger) instruct me on how to wear my mask yesterday when I was shopping at Winners. I told her to basically stuff it – but I was polite about it since my mother told me always to be polite – weather you mean it or not.
I’m betting that in 10 years (I used to say 15 years), that a smart law firm will launch a class action suit against all the makers of hand sanitizer and claim that it causes skin cancer.
Apparently in the UK, with even the slightest suggestion that there will be a vaccine passport, and guess what? Someone has already started a forgery scam. I’m only surprised that it wasn’t the Nigerian prince.
Robert of Ottawa, “Clearly masks don’t work.”
They are working quite well if you understand what they are supposed to do.
The masks are a placebo, a participation badge for the majority, and a filter for identifying non-compliant individuals.
Like a yellow star.

That just until they get the western world version of the ChiCom’s, “Sesame Credit” up and running.

There is one good thing about masks. I softly sing all types of offside, rude and vulgar things while I’m out. Its fun.
Day 1 – Covid injections, but not for you, yet
Wait 3 months to observe those who got the injection
Now wait 9-12 months to observe the women who got pregnant and gave birth
Now wait a year to see how those newborns managed
Now are you ready?
There are reasons Trudeau is placing himself at the back of the line along with his intention to use the elderly as lab rats.
How many people will want to get it if they find out they need two shots, multiple times a year!

Scapegoats.
It is our nature.
We as herd beasties are hardwired to find and/or create a scapegoat to serve our needs.
This other will be raised up and then gloriously cast down and destroyed.
For this serves something in our madness.
Scott Adams offers an alternate explanation for human nature,the polar opposite of most religions.
For the gospels all preach that we can rise above our base nature,that we we be rational being who swoon into madness at times..
Adams says we are irrational creatures who fall into reason haphazardly.
Being raised under one meme I find his quite revealing and as possibly providing a better template.
Those who know that they are superior being to the rest of us scum,are impossible to reason with.
When saner heads prevail they get banished or killed.
When people ignore them they never seem to be able to contain their lust for power,in any shape or form.
And in seeking power and lusting to be seen as powerful,they constantly screw things up for productive people.
We permit these fools and bandits to live amongst us,as most eventually grow up,wear out and take up other pursuits.
Allowing them access to the public purse,infinitely prolongs their stupidity.
A pox on all their houses and a Tax on all do-gooders,of at least 300% of their income,for that is the damage they inflict in their righteousness.
Now the parasites swell and burst,right now.
Volunteering as the scapegoats of the coming civic reset.
So sad too bad.
They know the crap they are selling is not being bought,so now they seek through fraud and misdirection to force feed it to us.
The parasitic overload has crushed the free market,so now they boast of this as an opportunity..to steal ever more.
That they buy their own BS is astounding.
For the general population needs the parasite not at all.
For kings have gold,gentlemen have silver and the peons? Well they have barter.
Barter only works when you have products or skills useful to the people..
So what happens in a system crash?
What skill does a pampered fool or state protected bandit have to offer?
That graduate of “Intersectional Matricies” can do what?
These either become slaves or bandits..
Well in the current civil service they are both.
Those who sought to steal the US Presidential Election,are fools.
They cannot wrap their minds around what the Tea Party told them so politely,the Ballot box,is all that stands between us.
Those repeated outbursts of hatred toward Trump voters tell all.
Consent to be governed,like polite refusal is not something an emotional retard can understand.
Believing you can rule,claiming absolute power over free citizens, never ends well.
Especially with todays technology.
Yes in the end we have 3 boxes. The soap box, the ballot box and the cartridge box
Watcher, Is that original, or from someone else? I have not read or heard that stated before. It is, ….concise, wise, and….elegant, thank you, I will not forget that simple line.
Yet another thought has just occurred, a fourth box.
Usually referred to as a coffin!
I’ve got six boxes. Add to the above my Xbox, Beer box, and Sex box (go Japanese). Once perfected, that last box will initiate a human extinction event.
It is just an old western saying I heard somewhere. Here’s to the girl with the little Red Shoes. Most of them are x rated.
Paris is burning, the people have had enough of the NAZI cops and the NAZI Government restrictions.
Burn it all down baby.

Communist governments relied on distrust between family, friends and neighbours. If people didn’t band together to dissent and ultimately overthrow, the communists could carry on as they liked.
Something to think about.
Nothing beats the Virtuous Hypochondriac
https://www.zerohedge.com/political/virtuous-hypochondria-how-one-man-lost-friend-20-years
Watcher,that article prompts an idea,on the grounds mischief is important,in these humourless times.
What would happen if we wore the Face Mask and the Nazi Armband?
Would the Karens be able to process that?
We can argue that CBC(Government) has told me I am a Nazi.So I wear this to Honour CBC’s wisdom.
And the Government insists that I wear this facial recognition denial system.
Thus as a patriot I comply.
Who was that poor freespeacher/Nazi the “Human Rights” Inquisition crushed a decade ago?
This is truly his time.
Time to wear the full moonsuit apparel,such as Asbestos removal crew do,to belabour the point as to how useless a “Facecovering” truly is.
