Armstrong Economics- The EU and Canada Collaborate on Digital IDs

The danger here is obvious. Mutual recognition means a unified framework. They’re building a foundation to establish a GLOBAL digital ID. Once these systems talk to one another, you have created the architecture for a worldwide database controlled by the political elite. This is precisely what the EU has been pushing with its Digital Services Act and the infamous “digital wallet” proposal. Now they are exporting it, just as they exported their disastrous ideas on Net Zero and financial regulation. Canada, collapsing economically and politically, is following Brussels into the abyss.

Keir Starmer’s Britain

Where the foxes caper unmolested, the government packs your school lunch and the sun never sets on the Censorship Industrial-Complex Empire.

Very early into the COVID-19 pandemic, ZeroHedge suggested that a little-known Chinese lab in Wuhan might know something about the novel coronavirus sweeping the globe. As a result, and as you know, we were subject to an intense demonetization / deplatforming campaign that included getting kicked off of Twitter, PayPal, Facebook and other platforms, dropped by our advertisers, and targeted by MSM hit pieces which colluded with foreign ‘watchdogs’ to inflict maximum damage.

These same groups also targeted outlets including The Federalist and Breitbart over various reporting, which suffered similar fates.

Now, thanks to a new book by investigative journalist Paul Holden that builds on reporting by Matt Taibbi, Paul Thacker and others, we learn that the origin of these campaigns, launched years before the pandemic, was none other than UK Prime Minister Kier Starmer’s political machine, which began targeting left-wing outlets speaking critically of Starmer such as The Canary, and then went after conservative outlets in America – just in time for the 2020 US election.

Tony Blair’s Britain

England is under attack, from all sides, and within

On the election of Tony Blair in 1997, what remained of our constitution was pasted over by a nu-constitution; a series of key acts and treaties ranging from The HRA, Constitutional Reform Act (2005) to the signing of the Amsterdam, Nice and Lisbon Treaties with the EU. The Blairite constitution accepted all aspects of the post-war consensus, from its Never Again-isms to the necessity of closer union with Europe – it attempted to give legal permanence to every millennial assumption about a globalised world, at the zenith of the globalist moment. To do so, it impliedly repealed many of our key constitutional documents and weakened Parliament’s influence, shifting responsibility away from it, in three directions. The nu-constitution essentially castrated our sole lawmaking body – balls, shaft and head – a procedure which nobody has dared to reverse.

Sam Cooper- “Fear or Freedom”: U.S. Lawmakers Warn CCP’s Digital Authoritarianism Is Going Global

Beijing’s one-party rule, enforced through “social stability maintenance” and mass data collection, is now being grafted onto global systems of communication, finance, and infrastructure. “What the CCP is doing will not stay confined within the PRC’s borders,” the report warns. “Its authoritarian practices are spreading outward, shaping a world increasingly hostile to America’s values and strategic interests.”

Blacklock’s- Ask MPs To Permit Digital ID

“To modernize and support enhanced passenger experience we ask that the government endorse system-wide border and screening modernization including immediate regulatory changes,” Toronto’s Pearson International Airport wrote in a committee submission. It recommended amendments to Secure Air Travel Regulations to “enable digital ID to be recognized.”

Regulations currently require that domestic passengers over age 18 carry government-issue photo ID like a passport or driver’s license. Pearson Airport managers sought “a comprehensive set of regulations to enable digital ID and biometrics.”

Where the foxes caper unmolested, the government packs your school lunch and what does Britain’s collapse teach us?

It’s not just tweets. People are being punished for peacefully marching, for petitioning the government, and even for displaying the British flag.

It’s not that much better elsewhere. France prosecuted its leading opposition figure, and Germany is doing its best to outlaw the main opposition party. (And the suspicious deaths of that party’s candidates just before an election aren’t inspiring confidence either.)

These nations are supposed to be democracies. Yet while “democracy” may not mean that the people get an unmediated fulfillment of every wish, it should at least mean that things that are heavily opposed by the populace don’t happen.

It also teaches us “always listen to Kate”, who set the foxes to caper under “Tony Blair’s Britain“.

The Experts Are Offended

My grandfather’s house, built in 1902, is still standing today despite having been built and later completely remodeled without any building permits at all. Yet statements like “You can’t construct a home without building permits” appear to ascribe metaphysical properties to legislative edicts; not having a building permit is treated as the equivalent of defying the law of gravity. In any case, the reason for skirting building inspection should be obvious: the moment you improve your property, your tax bill goes up.

The owners of a palatial home in West Vancouver, recently assessed at more than $6.7 million, have been ordered to demolish a building resembling a small residence and constructed without permits, at the back of their property.

“I can’t recall ever seeing a case like this,” West Vancouver District mayor Mark Sager told Global News in an interview Monday. “You can’t construct a home without building permits.”

Never forget.

Newly declassified intelligence documents reveal that the Biden administration categorized Americans who opposed COVID-19 mask and vaccine mandates as potential “Domestic Violent Extremists” (DVEs). This wasn’t mere rhetoric—the DVE designation grants federal agencies expanded surveillance and investigative powers against targeted individuals, according to intelligence records recently declassified and obtained by Public and Catherine Herridge Reports.

But there’s more: One of the most powerful figures at the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has admitted she refused the Covid-19 mRNA vaccine while pregnant—even as her agency promoted it as “safe and effective” for all pregnant women.

Mischievous Prosecution

Basic Dictatorship Let Them Eat Taser Mischief Is Important nannystate Surveillance State 20 Comments

Three years and millions of dollars later, it is now clear that the process was the actual punishment.

’Freedom Convoy’ organizer Pat King was sentenced to three months of house arrest in an Ottawa court this morning.

It comes on top of nine months he spent in custody both before and during his trial.

King’s lawyer had this to say about the eager beavers on the prosecution side:

The 10-year sentence sought by the Crown would have made King “a political prisoner”, she said. “They would be sentencing Mr. King for the sum total of everything that was done by every individual in the Freedom Convoy.”
