Big Doug Decrees: Totalitarian Police Powers! Checkpoints! Travel Restrictions! … Canadian Constitution Foundation Objects!

Ontario is setting up checkpoints at provincial land borders and enhancing police powers to enforce public health measures as part of a push to curb the spread of COVID-19, as new modelling warns of more than 15,000 new cases a day in the province.

The province is also extending its state of emergency and the current stay-at-home order by at least two weeks beyond its current end date of May 5. The government is shutting down non-essential construction at places such as shopping centres and office towers, and outlawing all outdoor activities such as golf, basketball, and playgrounds, as well as outdoor gatherings from outside one’s household, and limiting capacity at businesses such as grocery stores to 25 per cent. After previously loosening the rules, church services, as well as weddings and funerals, will now be capped at ten people indoors and outdoors.

Canadian Constitution Foundation condemns new Ontario police powers as “police state”

TORONTO: The Canadian Constitution Foundation (CCF) is today condemning the new powers that have been granted to Ontario police to enforce the province-wide stay at home order.

The new enforcement powers include giving the police the power to stop individuals and vehicles to ask for their name, address, and their purpose for being away from their residence. The powers comes into effect as of midnight on April 17, 2021.

It’s Time for Americans to Stand Up Against China’s Technology Theft

It’s Time for Americans to Stand Up Against China’s Technology Theft

Thirty years ago, the United States began to open its doors to China under the “constructive engagement” policy. The hope was to help liberalize China and steer it to be a “stable, open, and non-aggressive” world player, as former President Bill Clinton envisioned.

At that time, China’s technology lagged behind the United States’. It was unthinkable then that China would one day become a tech competitor. After three decades of open trade, the United States is waking up to a world in which China seems to be within arm’s length of replacing it as the world’s top tech provider.

The China class says no.

Economists sound alarm on China gaming free market to gain world domination

China is exploiting access to the capitalist economic system to achieve global dominance and ultimately seeks to control the world economy, two former Trump administration China experts warned a congressional commission on Thursday.

Miles Yu, former State Department policy planning official for China, said the U.S. must demand strict reciprocity in dealing with the Chinese Communist Party to level the economic playing field and prevent Beijing from achieving its goals.

‘Most racist paint ever’ reflects 98% of sunlight

‘Pantone 88’

Scientists in the US have developed a paint significantly “whiter than the whitest paint currently available”.

Tests carried out by researchers at Purdue University on their “ultra-white” paint showed it reflected more than 98% of sunlight.

That suggests, the scientists say, that it could help save energy and fight climate change.

Painting “cool roofs” white is an energy-saving approach already being rolled out in some major cities.

Raúl Castro, who succeeded his brother Fidel as the Communist Party of Cuba’s first secretary in 2011, is expected to step down from his post as the country begins its eighth Communist Party Congress on Friday.

FedEx shooter ID’d as 19-year-old Brandon Scott Hole

The man who killed eight people at an Indiana FedEx facility was identified as 19-year-old Brandon Scott Hole — as police revealed there are a “significant” number of Sikh community members who work at the targeted site, according to reports.

Hole was identified by law enforcement sources to NBC News.

Another report only said Hole and his potential for violence were known to local and federal authorities.

Indianapolis FedEx gunman, 19, was an ex-employee who had ‘been fired and previously had a gun seized by police’ before he shot dead eight people and killed himself in a two minute rampage

A police report obtained by WTHR shows authorities were called to Hole’s home in March last year to detain him after he allegedly voiced suicidal ideas after buying a shotgun 24 hours earlier. In that incident, the report said police, who later took Hole to hospital, had ‘seized shotgun from dangerous person’.

Western Fashion Brands Sued for Using Forced Labor in China

Four major European and American apparel and footwear manufacturers have been sued in a French court for allegedly using forced labor in Xinjiang, a mostly Muslim region in northwestern China.

Human rights groups, academic researchers and journalists have increasingly been sounding the alarm that the Chinese government is forcing more than 500,000 Uyghurs and other Muslim ethnic and religious minorities to pick cotton in Xinjiang, one of the largest cotton-producing regions in the world.

Whoever designed those horrid Olympics outfits should be sued. I wonder if they’re made in China?

Florida Gov. DeSantis Says Lockdowns Were a ‘Huge Mistake’

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis issued a statewide stay-at-home order on April 1 last year locking down the Sunshine State for 30 days amid a global panic about the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus outbreak. Sitting in his office exactly a year later, he told The Epoch Times that the lockdowns were a “huge mistake,” including in his own state.

“We wanted to mitigate the damage. Now, in hindsight, the 15 days to slow the spread and the 30—it didn’t work,” DeSantis said. “We shouldn’t have gone down that road.”
