They saw her coming…

Quebec woman loses thousands after clicking on a Facebook ad

… The representative promised a return of up to 70 per cent on her investment.

“I thought, why not?”

It started with about $300 to open an account, but that small investment quickly snowballed into an avalanche. Sahota says smooth-talking representatives soon convinced her she was getting big returns on her investment, telling her she should invest more to make more.

Coincidentally I have been checking out Alt-Coin pump and dump scams. In the video below the “Save the Kids” alt-coin scam is explained, (The vid is a bit “Loud” but bear with it.) What is shocking is that no one has been charged. And it’s just one of many such scams. A coin was created and marketed to followers by a “Social Influencer” named “Faze Kaye” with the unwitting assistance of fellow influencers. Within a half hour of the coin going public the influencer and accomplices sold all their holdings for a quick profit estimated to be in the 500K range. Needless to say the coin tanked and is now worthless. It’s a convoluted story and there are multiple videos by CafeZilla unravelling the whole mess. I was intrigued to learn that digital currencies can be laundered with relative ease via services such as Tornado-Cash and made virtually untraceable. I was under the impression that the blockchain was transparent, and it is, but as in all things subject to abuse by those with an elastic morality.

COVID’s Winnipeg-Wuhan-Galveston Connection

Merry white coat supremacy Christmas, everybody.

“Anyone on your team conducting gain of function studies, recombination studies or any other studies that may have resulted in the creation of the nCoV?” That was James LeDuc, director of the Galveston National Laboratory (GNL) in a February 9, 2020 email to Juan Zhiming at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) in China. LeDuc, who earned a PhD in epidemiology from UCLA, had trained staff at the WIV, yet the GNL boss had little clue what was going on there.

“Where is coronavirus research conducted?” LeDuc wanted to know. “What level of biocontainment? How many different laboratories actually handle live virus? Where are coronavirus stocks stored?” In addition, “When was the nCoV first handled in your laboratory? What was the source of that virus?” and “what are the coronaviruses in your possession that are most closely related to nCoV based on genetic sequences and are able to replicate in culture?”

How much does the diplomatic boycott of Beijing 2022 matter?

While concern over human rights has become almost a constant theme in international sport in recent years, few hosts of major events have provoked quite as much controversy as Beijing.

The venue for the 2022 Winter Olympics has been hit by a flurry of diplomatic boycotts from countries including the US, Australia, and Britain, because of widespread allegations of Chinese atrocities against the Uyghur community.

Human rights groups and Western governments have accused China of genocide in the Xinjiang region. China denies this, saying its network of detention camps there is for “re-education” of the Uyghurs and other Muslims.

Behold Justin’s huge sacrifice on the national behalf!

That time the Manchester Bomber Beat Up a girl for wearing a Short Skirt ‘could have been red flag’ says expert

Nothin to see here.

Salman Abedi punching a female student after a row about her wearing a short skirt could have been a red flag to his radicalisation, an inquiry has heard.

Abedi, who killed 22 people in the Manchester Arena bombing, hit the girl in the face at Manchester College.

The inquiry heard there was a pattern of those convicted of Islamist extremist offences also having a history of violence towards women.

Dr Matthew Wilkinson said Abedi had a “very bad attitude towards women”.

That’s racist! Beating up women is his culture!

‘Not fitting their narrative’: Waukesha feels abandoned after tragic parade attack

WAUKESHA, Wis. — For her whole life, 67-year-old Sharon Millard was so shy she used to ask her identical twin sister to go on dates in her place in high school.

But ever since Nov. 21, when Darrell Brooks allegedly plowed into dozens of people at the Waukesha Christmas parade, killing six people, including an 8-year-old boy, and injuring up to 60 others, Millard has felt compelled to speak about the atrocity she witnessed.

One of the people killed was Millard’s fellow “Dancing Granny” — 79-year-old Virginia “Ginny” Sorenson — who was tossed up in the air like a rag doll by Brooks’s SUV, police say.

Omicron: Why do boosters work if two doses struggle?

The heavily mutated Omicron variant has led to a serious dent in the ability of vaccines to protect us from catching the Covid virus.

Two doses of some vaccines offer almost no protection from an Omicron infection, although they should still greatly reduce the risk of becoming so ill you need hospital care.

The vaccines were all developed to fight the first form of the virus that emerged two years ago.

So can a third or “booster” dose of those original vaccines make the difference or has Omicron already outwitted the protection they can give?

I remain skeptical 

Yikes! – If we continue waiting for more evidence about omicron, it will already be too late

People think fairly linearly, and we like to feel rational by making decisions on the basis of large quantities of data, gathered carefully over time.

It is unintuitive to think exponentially. Yet, understanding exponential growth of infection is absolutely key to responding to and mitigating pandemics. This is because the amount of harm increases so quickly, and the economic and social costs of mitigating that harm rise alongside it.

Former space agency engineer charged by Mounties for ChiCom links oversaw major Canadian projects

Stickin it to the round eyes.

Wanping Zheng, who was charged last week in what police are calling “a matter of foreign actor interference,” claimed publicly to have overseen a number of major Canadian aerospace projects.

Last week the RCMP charged 61-year-old Wanping Zheng of Brossard, Que. with breach of trust. He’s accused of using his status as an engineer at the Canadian Space Agency to negotiate satellite station installation agreements with Iceland on behalf of a Chinese aerospace company. Documents filed in court show the alleged crime happened back in 2018.

“We do consider this to be a matter of foreign actor interference,” RCMP Inspector David Beaudoin, the officer in charge of operations for the Integrated National Security Enforcement Team (INSET) in Quebec, said late last week.

Multiculturalism means never being short of a Fifth Column.

GOLDSTEIN: Freeland announces monetary policy Trudeau doesn’t think about

Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland announced Canada’s monetary policy framework for the next five years on Monday, odd given that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said during the election campaign he doesn’t think about monetary policy.

Freeland, representing the Trudeau government, and Bank of Canada governor Tiff Macklem representing its governing council, jointly agreed that Canada’s annual inflation target will be 2%, with a range of 1% to 3%, from 2022 to 2026.

Ontario reports 1429 new Covid cases .. and Norway’s miracle cure for Omicron – Ban Booze in bars and restaurants!

Ontario reports 1429 new Covid cases .. and Norway’s miracle cure for Omicron – Ban Booze in bars and restaurants!

Ontario reports 1,429 new COVID-19 cases, 5 more deaths

Ontario reported more than 1,400 new COVID-19 cases and five more virus-related deaths on Tuesday as the test positivity rate hit a high not seen in nearly seven months.

Another 1,429 new coronavirus infections were reported today, down from 1,536 on Monday but up from 928 a week ago.

With case counts on the rise over the past month, the seven-day rolling average continues to climb and hit 1,400 today, compared to 975 a week ago.

European country bans booze to tackle Omicron

Norway has banned the sale of alcohol in bars and restaurants in an effort to curb the spread of the Covid-19 Omicron variant, which continues to push infections in the country on a sharp rise.

New Covid-19 rules will prohibit the sale of alcohol at bars, restaurants, and other service-based venues from Wednesday, while Norwegians are also being urged to work from home if possible.

“Infection rates in Norway are increasing sharply, and we have now gained new knowledge about the omicron variant and how fast it can spread. We are in a more serious situation,” declared Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, who claimed that the “stricter measures” were necessary “to maintain control of the pandemic.”

Why omicron is overtaking delta — and what that means for our fight against COVID-19

In the battle of the variants, omicron is poised to win.

While delta has long dominated the bulk of Canada’s coronavirus cases, the latest variant of concern is set to overtake other variants both here and abroad as it spreads through more than 60 countries around the world.

Early evidence suggests omicron is more adept at infecting people who’ve already had COVID-19 or multiple doses of leading vaccines, and the heavily mutated variant also has an uncanny knack for transmitting between people in the same home.

Full disclosure. I booked a Booster shot – earliest I could get is Dec 23 by which point if predictions are correct we will be dominated by Omicron. Fab. I was invited to Christmas at my brother’s. He is holding on but his condition continues its now accelerated, unrelenting assault. At this point I wonder if exposing him to the risk of infection is wise. We’ll abide by his decision.

The Medical Profession Implodes

In “normal” times, the practice of medicine has many challenges, some from within and some from outside the profession. If you let it, much of your daily practice follows specialty guidelines, insurance company criteria, hospital formularies, and other annoyances. None of those entities have any liability when it comes to our patients. For the most part, liability lies with the treating physician.

Leftist ‘Journalists’ Float the Idea That Criticizing Joe Biden Is a Danger to Democracy

The Leftist political and media elites are desperately afraid of Donald Trump, even more than they were when they relentlessly defamed him and tried to run him out of office with a hoax collusion conspiracy and a tempest in a teapot over a routine phone call. A Trump return to the White House on January 20, 2025, would represent a massive repudiation of those who have arrogated to themselves the authority to tell us what to think, and those self-appointed intellectual and moral superiors are doing everything they can think of to try to preserve their crumbling hegemony.

The Chinese Regime Is Committing ‘At Least 3 Genocides’: Former Senior State Department Official

The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) is committing at least three genocides, aimed to eradicate Falun Gong adherents, Uyghurs and Tibetans, according to a former senior state department official.

“The people you’re dealing with in China are human traffickers. … They’re committing genocide against their own people,” Robert Destro, former assistant secretary of state for democracy, human rights, and labor, told EpochTV’s “American Thoughts Leaders” program on Dec. 8.

“Genocide is more than killing… it’s the systematic destruction of a community.”
