The Chinese laboratory at the centre of suspicion over the origins of the coronavirus pandemic was awarded a patent for cages to hold live bats for testing just months before the virus started spreading.
The revelation comes after the World Health Organisation last week backed Beijing’s line, saying that a leak from the institute was ‘highly unlikely’, while giving credence to theories that the virus had entered the country via frozen meat.
Canada’s top doctor says to be ‘very cautious’ about easing restrictions as provinces move to re-open.
Seriously, this is what is passing for science (1 Timothy 6:20) these days. You couldn’t make this stuff up and yet, the unconstitutional Center for Disease Control have done it. They have secured “scientific data” to support Dr. Anthony Fauci’s push for double masking. Of course, I’m speaking tongue in cheek about the alleged data. However, the CDC has now officially ruled that wearing two masks can decrease exposure to infectious aerosols by up to 95%. Of course, you must know that they conducted their tests on dummies…. yes, dummies.
The Calgary-based Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms will sue the federal government early next week over its controversial policy of detaining travellers when they return to the country, which they say is unconstitutional.
IN a grim caricature of Christian penance, these are the months we are meant to be taking our punishment in the aftermath of a Christmas feast gifted to us by our rulers. Except there was no Christmas feast. And now Easter too is to be drastically curtailed, with Boris Johnson ‘privately sharing an aspiration to see restrictions begin to ease by Good Friday to allow families some small contact again’.
Ah, but fret ye not at this cancellation of all that we hold most sacred. This latest lockdown, unlike those that went before it, is morally justified apparently.
The fact Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Procurement Minister Anita Anand refuse to disclose the contracts they’ve signed with vaccine manufacturers raises the question of what’s in them that they don’t want us to see.
They’ve rejected appeals from the opposition parties, Canada’s premiers and provincial public health experts to release the contracts on the grounds this would violate confidentiality provisions, which could lead to their cancellation.
OTTAWA – Since last November, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said all Canadians who want a COVID-19 vaccine will have one by September.
Trudeau, his ministers and MPs have all repeated that promise despite a slowdown in vaccine deliveries that has seen Canada fall behind the world for vaccinations during the last month. It’s a promise to Canadian voters and now a political liability should the government fail to deliver.
Now, unlike in countries where democracy does still exist , here , in Canada you no longer have these rights . Your rights WILL BE violated , and is how it WILL happen
Police say they are investigating reports that door handles were removed off the suites of residents who tested positive for COVID-19 at a retirement home in Courtice, Ont.
Officers in Durham Region said the incident took place at Cliffe Terrace Retirement Residence, and that police became aware of the issue after someone came forward.
CP24 and CTV News Toronto have obtained a copy of a letter that Verve Senior Living, the company which runs the home, sent to families of residents on Feb. 10.
The European Union’s much-touted campaign to vaccinate 450 million Europeans against Covid-19 has gotten off to an inauspicious start. The vaccination rollout has been plagued by bureaucratic sclerosis, poorly-negotiated contracts, penny-pinching and blame shifting — all wrapped in a shroud of secrecy. The result is a needless and embarrassing shortage of vaccines, and yet another a crisis of legitimacy for the EU.
People with learning disabilities have been given do not resuscitate orders during the second wave of the pandemic, in spite of widespread condemnation of the practice last year and an urgent investigation by the care watchdog.
Mencap said it had received reports in January from people with learning disabilities that they had been told they would not be resuscitated if they were taken ill with Covid-19.
This is a feature not a bug, I have witnessed the callousness of our own medical bureaucracy.
Pray you don’t become an undesirable cost.
The language of our bureaucracy is chilling; Dying is referred to as “transitioning” due to “life limiting causes.”
Starvation is called “Allowing nature to take it’s course.”
If you decline an assisted death they will offer a sleep drug which will accomplish the same thing, just a little more slowly.
OTTAWA – For the better part of a month, Canada’s vaccine effort has plummeted down international rankings, as little vaccine has arrived on our shores.
Americans, Britons and Israelis, along with those living in tiny nations like the Seychelles and Malta, are much more likely to have received a shot than people living in Canada, where as of this week only 2.4 per cent of people have received even one shot of a COVID vaccine.
Ontario is reporting 1,300 cases of #COVID19 and nearly 58,800 tests completed. Locally, there are 433 new cases in Toronto, 253 in Peel and 116 in York Region.
As of 8:00 p.m. yesterday, 456,947 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine have been administered.

Canada is ‘playing chicken’ with COVID-19 by reopening while variants are spreading widely
Much of Canada is lifting lockdown measures and reopening risky indoor settings while experts warn fast-spreading coronavirus variants threaten to jeopardize recent progress and trigger a brutal third wave.
On the same day Manitoba announced its first case of the variant initially detected in the United Kingdom, the province also said it would reopen restaurants, gyms, places of worship, museums, art galleries, tattoo parlours, nail salons and libraries.
Sainted Irish Mother is now experiencing her 3rd Covid Lockdown while in hospital. Thursday there were 2 cases on her floor, Friday 5. Today? We’re waiting on the test results for Mom and the rest. Visits are once again verboten until Feb 26 at the earliest. The isolation is killing her.
“They showed us a couple of examples, but that’s not the same as doing all of them, which is standard epidemiological investigation,” Dominic Dwyer, an Australian microbiologist on the WHO team, told The Journal.
A senate committee has decided to allocate $150,000 of taxpayers dollars so that senate employees can buy desks for their homes.
According to Blacklock’s Reporter, the Senate committee on internal economy voted 9 to 6 to approve the funding. It remains unclear how many employees will receive funding or how much each desk will cost.
They’ll turn in the desks when the pandemic is over, right? Oh wait, it will never be over.
