The Fake News media has tended to ignore the ongoing weekly protests for freedom since Trudeau brought in the Emergencies Act to smash the peaceful Truckers’ Freedom Convoy. Nevertheless, Freedom Rallies continue across this Dominion. Weekly rally at Queen’s Park, Toronto, June 11. Paul Fromm and a contingent from the Canadian Association for Free Expression.
At this time, it cannot be forgotten that the COVID-19 Communist takeover scam continues. Criminals in our gov’ts appear to have given us a break – all the while admitting that they will be back in the fall.
This break has not prohibited these Gov’ts from continuing to falsify charges against and prosecute innocent people who simply refuse to comply. These criminals continue to promote masks/vaccinations at various locations such as hospitals as well. Our goal for the absolute return of our rights and freedoms, will and must continue. Do not be led to believe that it is all over. It is not – far from it.
We urge everyone to obtain a copy of the book, “The Politics of Obedience” by Etienne de la Boetie, written over 400 years ago to obtain an excellent understanding of the power we have by simply exercising our Constitutional right/power to peaceful civil disobedience.
This Constitutional right/power originates from the breach of the Coronation Oath contract with the Monarch.
Remember…
The majority of the world’s population remains unvaccinated!
Bonnie Henry’s stats are lies!
—————————————
Teresa Tam recently warned that there would be a 7th wave of the non-isolated COVID-19 virus.
Despite the well-known medical fact that subsequent variants of a virus may spread quicker but are much less of a threat, she is issuing the warning for the fall.
She admits that they can’t predict when nor how big it will be, nor any other medical facts.
I emphasize our ongoing Rally / Protest Message that our efforts must continue:
Because – It Ain’t Over

Unholy Coalition of COVID Crazies Bans MP From Parliament & Doing Her Job for Not Disclosing Her Vaxx Status
She refused to show her proof of vaccination, as it is private medical information, and consequently the Liberal-NDP coalition threatened to kick her out of the House Of Commons.
When the MP for the riding of Yorkton—Melville in Saskatchewan Cathay Wagantall took the decision of finally coming back to West Block in order to better serve her constituents, the Liberals and NDP in the house threatened to kick her out of Parliament. Therefore she preemptively decided to leave, before security would need to get involved.
After this occurred, she staged a press conference in front of West Block, to explain what the situation was, and what actions had been taken. “There’s no way that any of our public servants are being nearly as efficient as they should be working from home,” she stated.
Wagantall explained that she believes “there are very good reasons why an exemption should be given to a number of Canadians – actually the majority of them. Because there are a lot of reasons why an individual may choose not to get vaccinated.”
“This Prime Minister has decided that the only way you get an exemption is if you take that first vaccine,” she continues, “and you have an anaphylactic reaction to it. That’s insane!”
One thing Wagantall wants to make clear is that she is neither vaccinated, nor unvaccinated. The fact that she does not disclose her vaccination status does not imply if she is or isn’t vaccinated.
The point she makes is that it is immoral to coerce a free individual into providing private medical information to another person. Two reporters that were at the small press conference challenged her by asking: “what about other Canadians? Why should you have an exemption and not them?”
Wagantall made sure to remind them that she does not believe she should be an exception.
Following this line of aggressive questioning, a True North reporter asked Wagantall what she thinks of the fact that the whole world is opening up again, and lift mask mandates as well as vaccine mandates, but not Canada. And that since this is happening, why does she think Trudeau himself is not lifting the mandates?
Here is her full response:
“I would really love you all to ask him that question over and over and over again. And put it in your papers. What do I think? There’s clearly an alternative agenda.”
One odd thing with this whole situation is that on Tuesday, Justin Trudeau attended the National Prayer Breakfast and stood right next to Wagantall unmasked. https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html?dnt=false&embedId=twitter-widget-
Leslyn Lewis pointed out that she believes this is insanity, and that all mandates should end now.
MP Cathay Wagantall will now be forced to go back to serving her people in a virtual manner, and will not be allowed inside Parliament to defend her beliefs, and protect her constituents.
She pointed out that behind a Member of Parliament’s badge, it is written that they must be allowed inside Parliament at all times, without obstruction. If this is the case, then this situation contradicts the rights that she holds as an MP.
By Cosmin Dzsurdzsa –
Conservative leadership candidate Roman Baber and PPC leader Maxime Bernier have confirmed that they will be joining Canadian Armed Forces veteran James Topp on his nationwide march to Ottawa in protest of Covid-19 mandates.
Baber tweeted on Monday that he would be meeting Topp on Jun. 15 before he reaches the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
On Tuesday, Bernier also said that he would be meeting Topp and walking with him on Jun. 30 for the last leg of his journey to Ottawa.
Topp’s 4,293 km march began at the tail end of February in Vancouver around the time Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked the Emergencies Act to quash peaceful Freedom Convoy protestors in Ottawa.
“Everywhere I meet people, I hear their stories and the stories are amounting to an overwhelming amount of individuals suffering due to government overreach,” Topp told True North in March. “I am marching to carry these stories to Ottawa. I want to thank every person who has entrusted me with their story. It increases my resolve more and more each day.”
Legacy media outlets have refused to cover Topp’s historic journey and the CAF veteran has called the blackout a sign of how divisive the industry has become.
“What we’re finding is pretty much a total corporate media blackout on this endeavour,” he said. “To that end, I would say, you know, folks who want to go out there and start banging the drum and shaming the CBC or CTV, because this is an amazing story of – 100 days in – a group of people who had never met each other before February 20.”
Before beginning the march, Topp was a civilian RCMP employee and a CAF member who lost both jobs because of the federal vaccine mandate.
Topp has stated that he has spoken to at least 10 MPs from different parties and he hopes to secure a venue to hold a discussion about ending restrictions. Topp’s three priorities are repealing, reinstatement and restitution plus repair.

Confederate flag imagery is banned at this year’s CMA Fest in Nashville.(Pollockdog / Wikipedia / CC BY-SA 3.0) By The Associated Press
Published: Jun. 2, 2022 at 11:11 AM CDT
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The CMA Fest is prohibiting any Confederate flag imagery at its four-day festival, following similar bans at other country music festivals.
In a statement provided to The Tennessean, the Country Music Association said the decision to enact the policy this year was based on the personal safety of fans and to prevent discrimination.
“This year’s CMA Fest is our first major fan-facing event in nearly three years. We have always had policies in place that protect the safety of our fans and ban discrimination, but we felt it was important to further refine our language to explicitly outline what will and will not be tolerated,” the statement said.
After a two-year hiatus because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the annual festival that began in 1972 returns to Nashville, Tennessee, starting June 9. The festival regularly attracts about 50,000 country music fans.
Stagecoach Festival in Indio, California, this year banned Confederate flag imagery and any other “divisive symbols” and “racially disparaging” displays.
Country star Maren Morris has urged other country singers to call on festivals and shows to ban the flag. Luke Combs has also apologized for previously appearing with the Confederate flag, saying there was no excuse.
| US State Requests Canada be Added to Religious Freedom ‘Special Watch List’ The Ohio State House of Representatives voted this evening to formally request Canada be added to the United States’ Commission on International Religious Freedom’s Special Watch List. We would be joining the likes of Iraq, Cuba and Kazakhstan on this list. This is a sad, but incredibly newsworthy move. It speaks volumes to the state of religious freedom and freedom in general in our nation. It also gives insight into how grave the situation is, given overt concerns from our southern neighbors. An outline of the resolution and testimonies can be found here. Given the Canadian government’s complete disregard for religious freedom over the past year and the denial of almost all requests for religious accommodation in regards to vaccine mandates, this is a welcome development. Please contact your elected representatives and ensure they are aware. Various members of the Canadian public provided testimony, including students, lawyers, pastors, pilots, military members, medical professionals, and even an OHL hockey player. The Rev Michael Thiessen, Founder of Liberty Coalition Canada, and Greg Hill from Free to Fly gave in-person testimony at the committee hearing a couple of weeks ago, which can be found at the link below, starting at minute 2:00. We are grateful to our American friends for their efforts on behalf of Canadian freedom, especially the sponsors of this resolution, Rep. Reggie Stoltzfus and Rep. Timothy Ginter. |
‘Who cares if Miami is six metres underwater in 100 years?’
BY Dexter Tilo 24 May 2022 Share AddThis Sharing ButtonsShare to FacebookShare to TwitterShare to LinkedIn
A senior banker from HSBC has been suspended following his controversial presentation on climate change at an event last week, according to reports. The Financial Times reported that Stuart Kirk, HSBC’s global head of responsible investments, will be the subject of pending investigation after his report on climate change at the FT Moral Money Summit.
During his presentation, Kirk alleged that central bankers and policymakers exaggerated the financial risks of climate change.
“I completely get that there is a competition for funding,” he said during the presentation. “But I feel like it’s getting a little bit out of hand — the constant reminder that we are doomed, the constant reminder that within decades it’s all over.”
“It’s become so hyperbolic that no one really knows how to get anyone’s attention at all,” he added.
Aside from this, Kirk also controversially said: “Who cares if Miami is six metres underwater in 100 years? Amsterdam has been six metres underwater for ages and that’s a really nice place.”
The slides he presented also stirred backlash, with one of his first slides stating: “Unsubstantiated, shrill, partisan, self-serving, apocalyptic warnings are ALWAYS wrong.”
Following his remarks, executives from HSBC have begun releasing statements distancing themselves as well as the company from Kirk’s pronouncements during the event.
Noel Quinn, HSBC chief executive officer, stated that he and the company did not agree with Kirk’s remarks.
“I do not agree – at all – with the remarks made at last week’s FT Moral Money Summit. They are inconsistent with HSBC’s strategy and do not reflect the views of the senior leadership of HSBC or HSBC Asset Management,” said Quinn.
Celine Herweijer, HSBC’s group chief sustainability officer, also dissociated the company from Kirk’s presentation.
“It’s important to be crystal clear that these are absolutely not views I nor any of the HSBC leadership team share. They couldn’t be further from HSBC’s position,” said Herweijer in a separate statement on LinkedIn.
According to both officials, HSBC is committed to its ambition of achieving net zero.
“I hope my colleagues, customers and others will all know, from our work and my public comments, that HSBC is absolutely committed to a net zero future,” said Quinn.
“Given our global reach and capabilities we have an obligation to lead. I want HSBC to be a leader in supporting our clients, the finance sector and others through the massive transformation that’s needed to build a better future.”
In her end, Herweijer said: “As a global bank we understand we have a critical role, and responsibility, to help our customers and communities transition to a net zero future.”
“We are wholly committed to this agenda, and the massive transformation programme ahead for ourselves, for the finance sector, and for clients in all sectors as we look to build a clean, sustainable and resilient future for all.”
European Union Plans Further Crackdown on Dissent Under Guise of Fighting “Hate”
On 9 December 2021, the European Commission proposed to extend the list of EU crimes to hate speech and hate crimes.
If this proposal is accepted, pro-life and pro-family voices in the EU will be shut down, triggering a domino effect in the western countries, including Canada. Sorry, but I must warn you about the upcoming danger: your right to free speech will be violated by public and private entities.
It’s a tactic by the radical left to censor any dissent to their agenda worldwide. By changing the definition of what free speech means, they’ll strike a blow on our freedom to defend our opinions and beliefs… We are on the brink of being unplugged!
The debates are still going on, but the vote is inexorably coming. The next meeting of the Justice and Home Affairs Council will be in Luxembourg on 9 – 10 June 2022. We plan to persuade some delegates of the EU Member States to vote against the new hate speech laws and make them derail… But I need your help NOW!
Sign this petition to stop the blow against freedom of speech in the EU and the rest of the world.
If freedom of expression is suppressed, the system of government turns into totalitarian tyranny.
We are increasingly seeing how hate speech laws can be misused for persecuting people of different opinions. Biden administration in the US has announced its intent to establish a Disinformation Governance Board (DGB) to label information it does not like as disinformation. The Finnish pro-gender prosecutor persecuted the Christian politician Päivi Räsänen for her biblical views on marriage, family, and sexuality.
We must stop it until it is too late!
The new hate speech laws proposed by the Commission to be added to Article 83(1) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) are very loosely worded and might be arbitrarily misused by some powerful groups e.g. pro-abortion and pro-gender politicians, judges, and activists.
Another problem is that we have no clear definition of what hate speech and hate crimes are.
The radical left want to have free hands to shut you down and censor the pro-life and pro-family voices! If they get away with this in the EU, they’ll feel entitled to impose the same censorship in the rest of the western countries, including Canada.
We are mobilizing thousands of citizens around the world to prevent the radical left in the EU from converting you into a criminal… But we have to move fast to convince the delegates since the vote session is expected on 9-10 June.
Let us stand up together for freedom of expression in the EU and the rest of the world!
The situation is difficult, but we have hope.
For the introduction of the new hate speech laws, the delegates of the Justice and Home Affairs Council in Luxembourg must unanimously vote.
It means that if we manage to persuade some delegates of the EU Member States to vote against the new hate speech laws, we can win and defend our freedom of speech.
However, if we fail, it might very easily and quickly happen that we will face judicial trials for our pro-life, pro-family, and pro-Christian opinions presented in public. Then, free Europe will be over.
I hope that this is not what you and I want. Let’s act NOW to avoid it.
Therefore, we need to speak up and defend freedom of speech until it is too late!
Thanks for all you do,
Ignacio Arsuaga and the entire CitizenGO Team

Read the CBC report below. It tells the story of Fort McMurray Ward 1 councillor Shafiq Dogar. At some point in the past he is alleged to have made comments critical of native people, during a February budget meeting, Critics said the comments were “hateful” or “hate speech”. There were calls for him to resign. Recently, Council voted to censure him, restrict his powers and send him off to indoctrination school.
“The sanctions include removing Dogar from council committees and from representing council, including travelling on council business, until he has completed training on Indigenous awareness and respectful interactions at the municipality. Council also voted to issue Dogar a motion of censure and demand that he provide a public apology directed to the community and Indigenous communities.”
Nowhere in the article will you learn what Dogar actually said. All too often the false news media leads the charge. It smears the victim with loaded words — “hate speech” — but denies readers specifics on which to form their own opinion.
Some research gets us a little closer to specifics. Fort McMurray Today (February 3, 2022), the local free handout, reported: “Mayor Sandy Bowman and Indigenous leaders in the Fort McMurray Wood Buffalo region are demanding Councillor Shafiq Dogar resign and are accusing him of saying Indigenous people come to Fort McMurray to get drunk, fight or cause legal problems.”
Notice, Dogar’s critics do not say his remarks are false, just that he shouldn’t have said anything negative about a privileged minority. Locals will tell you that many Indians descend on Fort McMurray from reserves in the area and some, not all, get involved in heavy drinking or other legal problems.
In a functioning democracy, Ward 1 voters should decide Dogar’s fate. An elected official should be free to express his opinion to represent his constituents without fear of censure, reduced powers or a trip to indoctrination camp.

A Fort McMurray councillor for the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo has been reprimanded for his conduct, including comments he made about Indigenous people at a February budget meeting.
Chief legislative officer Jade Brown detailed reports from the municipality’s integrity commissioner about Coun. Shafiq Dogar at a council meeting Tuesday.
Brown said formal complaints were made against Dogar for incidents in 2021 — in one instance about his interactions with a municipal employee and in another instance relating to Facebook posts he made.
Six other complaints were filed against Dogar about comments he made at a budget meeting in February of this year.
At the February budget meeting, Dogar made comments that Indigenous leaders and politicians said were hateful against Indigenous people.
The following day, the Athabasca Tribal Council called for Dogar to resign over his “hate speech.” Wood Buffalo Mayor Sandy Bowman issued a statement calling Dogar’s comments “unacceptable, incorrect and difficult to comprehend.”
Integrity commissioner Jim Peacock investigated the complaints against Dogar.
Peacock found that Dogar violated council’s code of conduct. Among other things, the code prohibits councillors from speaking in a discriminatory way, using abusive language or disclosing confidential information.
Council voted unanimously Tuesday to support a list of recommendations from Peacock. Dogar left the room for the vote.
The sanctions include removing Dogar from council committees and from representing council, including travelling on council business, until he has completed training on Indigenous awareness and respectful interactions at the municipality.
Council also voted to issue Dogar a motion of censure and demand that he provide a public apology directed to the community and Indigenous communities.
A governance expert will be enlisted to help in Dogar’s training. The expert will provide a report to council before the councillor is permitted resume his duties.
After the vote, Dogar was given an opportunity to speak. He started by defending himself against the first two complaints.
He then moved on to the incident in February. Dogar said other councillors and the mayor didn’t bat an eye when he made the comments, and that it was only afterward — when the Athabasca Tribal Council issued a news release — that they raised issue with his comments.
But he said he was ready to apologize during council.
Dogar then started talking about a meeting about extending the chief administrative officer’s contract. Coun. Keith McGrath called a point of order.
“Sir, let me speak today,” Dogar said before his microphone was turned off.
The mayor upheld the point of order and Dogar was allowed to continue.
Dogar said that over the past few months he has opted to take training as he realized his English “leads to some misunderstanding at times … I apologize to anyone whom I have neglected with my current speech.”
He added: “We have a lot of good work to do in the community. Let’s do it. Let’s not waste time on unnecessary things.”
McGrath said he felt the apology was sincere. He said Dogar should be commended for his apology.
Coun. Funky Banjoko said she applauded Dogar’s apology.
“And on behalf of the entire immigrants in the region, I also want to join him and apologize,” Banjoko said.
But Coun. Kendrick Cardinal wanted more.
“I still think that you could do better. You didn’t specifically acknowledge the Indigenous people,” said Cardinal. “I think you should.”
Dogar then said he “always loved Indigenous people.”
“We should acknowledge that this land we have to … we owe loyalties to the First Nation,” he said.
Cardinal said Dogar’s additional words mean a lot to Indigenous communities and he acknowledged the apology. (CBC, May 25, 2022)
