You’re Fired!

When Jim McMurtry signed on as a public school teacher, the last thing he ever considered was that one day he might find himself the target of a witch hunt.

My crime was in saying that most students who died while enrolled in these schools from 1883-1996 did so from disease, especially tuberculosis. Though factually true, the Abbotsford School District wrote to me in June 2021 that it was a time to hear from students “and not debate or challenge their emotional response to the news…. [Students] were struggling to make sense of the news and process the discovery.”

The problem was there was no discovery in Kamloops, and there still is no evidence whatsoever.

At the end of the partial and superficial investigation, I was fired.

Debbie Dingell’s well rehearsed statement about Anthony Fauci, describing him as such a good man who just wants to help people, lead up to her question about the “credible death threats” Fauci and his family  received, was a sad attempt to martyr Fauci in a way most narcissists only dream about.

If you get a chance, pick up a copy of The Real Anthony Fauci, if you haven’t already.

I’m not sure how much value there is in a Master’s degree in psychedelics and consciousness, but maybe it’s a step above a degree in unconsciousness. When socialized medicine won’t treat you, is it really that much of a bonus when the doctor can offer LSD to go along with MAID?

The program, which opens next September, will be housed in the university’s psychology department, but run in partnership with the department of classics and religious studies. Students will be able to take a broad range of courses from neuroscience to comparative mysticism.

Williams is also anticipating that those who are interested in spiritual uses will also be drawn to the program, such as practitioners who are interested in offering psychedelics for end-of-life distress and those who want to use them for traditional or Indigenous spiritual practices.

The Hub- The vaccine mandates have proved to be one of the enduring legacies of the COVID-19 pandemic

A few years on, vaccine mandates have proved to be one of the enduring legacies of the pandemic. In British Columbia, they remain in place for health-care workers. The persistence of mandates is a reminder of the inertia of regulation: new powers, once wielded, tend not to be voluntarily retracted.

Be a shame if something were to happen to it.

National Post- Canadian, 93, wanted to give her kids a gift. Instead she got slapped with $40K in capital gains tax bill

The two lots were appraised at $125,000 and $145,000, totalling $270,000, leaving Diachun with a tax bill of about $40,000, an amount she said she cannot pay.

“I’m on pension. How am I going to pay for that?” said Diachun. “I’m not one of the wealthy. I’m 93 years old. Who is going to give me a mortgage? Who is going to give me a loan?”

“Fairness for every generation.”

Blacklocks- Commons To Pass Labour Bill

The Commons today is expected to pass a ban on federally regulated employers’ use of replacement workers in case of strike or lockout.

Bill C-58 An Act To Amend The Canada Labour Code would restrict federally regulated employers like airlines, banks and telecom companies from using replacement workers in strikes or lockouts under threat of $100,000-per day fines. A clause of the bill delays enforcement one year from final passage in Parliament.

No Conservative MP spoke against the bill or opposed it in Second or Third Reading.

Utah resident Brianne Dressen participated in a clinical trial of a Covid vaccine at the beginning of the pandemic. After only one shot, she suffered a severe vaccine injury which has plagued her ever since. What’s just as bad as her injury is the near total indifference of the drug company to her plight. John Campbell explores these issues in a recent interview with Brianne.

Blacklocks- Aid 6,000 Homeless At $561M

“From 2019 to 2023 this funding has supported placements in more stable housing for 17,849 people annually, emergency housing funding for 5,399 people annually and core prevention services for 31,164 people annually,” said the report. “The best available evidence suggests homelessness has increased in spite of Reaching Home.”

It was “a damning report,” Opposition Leader Pierre Poilievre yesterday told the Commons. “If it costs half a billion dollars for the Prime Minister to drive up homelessness how much would it cost to drive it down?” asked Poilievre.

One Flu Out Of The Wuhan Nest

NY Post;

A top adviser at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) deleted records critical to uncovering the origins of COVID-19 — and used a “secret back channel” to help Dr. Anthony Fauci and a federal grantee that funded gain-of-function research in Wuhan, China, evade transparency.

NIH senior adviser Dr. David Morens improperly conducted official government business from his private email account and solicited help from the NIH’s Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) office to dodge records requests, according to emails revealed in a memo by the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic, which The Post obtained Wednesday.

“[I] learned from our foia [sic] lady here how to make emails disappear after I am foia’d [sic] but before the search starts,” Morens wrote in a Feb. 24, 2021, email. “Plus I deleted most of those earlier emails after sending them to gmail [sic].”

“I ask you both that NOTHING gets sent to me except to my gmail [sic],” he emphasized again in a Nov. 18, 2021, email to EcoHealth Alliance president Dr. Peter Daszak, whose organization was suspended this month from receiving federal funds for the next three years and who was himself proposed for debarment on Wednesday.

Roger Pielke Jr was at the hearing.

That there was a cover-up at NIH/NIAID is now well established. Top officials used private email addresses and perhaps burner phones to conduct official government business and to delete communications about COVD-19 origins in order to defeat FOIA requests — all of this is stated in their own words.

The huge question that this raises is — Why the cover-up?

I’m sure that the conclusion of most thinkers on the left will be that these programs were obviously underfunded.

Despite $443 million in new annual spending aimed to reduce homelessness the number of people without a roof over their head has grown by 20 per cent in Canada, according to the Parliamentary Budget Officer.

The new $443 million was a 374 per cent increase compared to prior spending, but it doesn’t appear to be having the desired effect.
