Rupa Subramanya: Ludicrous to call the Freedom Convoy an occupation
The protesters didn’t come from Mars, or from anywhere outside Canada Author of the article: Rupa Subramanya

Article content
As the second full week of hearings by the Public Order Emergency Commission winds down, it’s becoming increasingly clear just how weak the government’s rationale appears to be for invoking the Emergencies Act. As I wrote last week, key witnesses, including the OPP’s intelligence chief Supt. Pat Morris, shredded the federal narrative that the protesters were a violent and dangerous fringe who posed an imminent threat to the nation’s capital. Morris’s point of view was reconfirmed by OPP Commissioner Thomas Carrique, who asserted categorically that there was no “credible threat” to national security posed by the Freedom Convoy.
Echoing the OPP, Ottawa Police Service incident commander Supt. Robert Bernier made clear that the Emergencies Act was not required for the police to do their job. Added to this, interim Ottawa police chief Steve Bell said that while the emergency powers were “helpful,” they were not “needed” for the police, the OPP and the RCMP as part of their unified command to do their job.

It’s obvious that emergency powers being helpful is not an adequate criterion to invoke them, and it’s going to be very hard for the government to make a convincing case that there was no viable alternative except imposing an emergency. Presumably, the last straw for the government to grasp at is that they had lost faith in the ability of the Ottawa Police, something suggested in a text message exchange now made public between Carrique and RCMP Commissioner Brenda Lucki, who apparently relayed the government’s lack of faith to Carrique.
Leave the police aside — there’s ample reason to have little faith in Ottawa’s outgoing mayor, Jim Watson. One of his more outlandish suggestions after the protests had already been cleared was that protesters’ vehicles that had been seized be sold and the proceeds used for policing costs. City solicitor David White, in a memo that since been made public, shot down the idea, saying the city had no legal authority to permanently seize vehicles in such a manner. The fact that Watson, the mayor of a G7 capital, was apparently unaware of this and was proposing tactics that you would more usually find in a banana republic is flabbergasting and scary. Yet, this is of a piece with the federal government’s freezing of the bank accounts not just of the protesters but those who gave them a few dollars of support online.
Equally disturbing was some of Chief Bell’s verbiage during his testimony to the commission of inquiry. He repeatedly referred to the protests as an “occupation” and the protesters as “occupiers,” terms widely used by critics and opponents of the protests. Such terms are clearly intended to delegitimize what was in fact a peaceful disobedience movement, of a type that Canada or Ottawa has not seen much of, but which is common around the world, including in our neighbour to the south.
Likewise, when challenged under cross examination by Convoy lawyer Brendan Miller, Bell, who repeatedly invoked “violence” being done to city residents, conceded that his use of the term did not refer to actual violence as defined by the Criminal Code but a violence that was “felt” by Ottawa residents. Again, such an assertion might possibly make sense coming from a psychiatrist or a psychological counsellor, but seems rather bizarre coming from the chief of police, whose day job is enforcing the law, not psychologizing what some residents may or may not have felt.
If the rest of the hearings go like this, it’s hard to believe an impartial commission could conclude otherwise than the government failed to make its case for the invocation of the Emergencies Act. However, the Liberals have their waiting saviour in the NDP and Jagmeet Singh. Singh has said, while the inquiry is in progress, that even if the commission finds fault with the government, his party won’t pull the plug on Trudeau’s minority, thus propping them up until their term expires in 2025. Rationalize it however Singh may, this is nothing other than the most cynical political calculus, since an early election is likely to prove ruinous to the veto that a party unlikely to ever form a government has over the current governing party.
In the ultimate analysis, the narrative tone was set from the outset by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and it continues to this day. Commenting on the actions of Ontario Premier Doug Ford, Trudeau praised Ford for “standing with the people of Ottawa, of Ontario and of Canada, and not others.” Unless the prime minister believes, contrary to the evidence, that members of the Freedom Convoy came from Mars, or at any rate from outside Canada, he’s quite literally “othering” fellow Canadians. Trudeau is no longer even bothering with the pretence that he governs for all Canadians, and not just the minority (not even a plurality) who voted for him.

A Christian mother of five children was arrested from false accusations that she ‘hurt the feeling of an LGBT activist on Twitter.’
Radical left has done it. Yes, once again!
Our Caroline Farrow, CitizenGO’s Campaign Director for the United Kingdom and Ireland, has been arrested for alleged “harassment” and “malicious online posts”.
Posts she didn’t even make!
We need your help to demand that the Detective Chief Inspector, David Bentley, apologise for the unwarranted actions of the police officers, who so forcedly and ruthlessly stormed in and raided Caroline’s home.
While Caroline was being arrested, the transgender activist posted a picture in his social media literally popping a champagne bottle and celebrating how a mother of five is arrested in front of their autistic children, for something she hasn’t done.
The persecution will have no end, if we don’t stand up to it NOW! If it can happen to a Christian mother of 5 in a rural English town, it can happen to anyone — including you and me!
Caroline Farrow, CitizenGO’s Campaign Director in the United Kingdom, has been arrested from accusations that she ‘hurt the feeling of an LGBT activist on Twitter.’ They are calling the arrest justified for potential charges of “harassment” and “malicious posts”. There not a limit to how far the totalitarian establishment will go, continuously clamping down on our fundamental freedoms — particularly on our right to our own faith, thoughts, and beliefs. Demand the Detective Chief Inspector, David Bentley, inquire into the actions of the the Surrey Police Department, who have deprived Caroline of her liberty, in such an undignified way.SIGN THE PETITION
I wouldn’t be emailing you so late if it wasn’t as important as this…
In the last hours, Caroline Farrow, the CitizenGO’s Campaigns Director in the United Kingdom and one of the bravest defenders of Christian family values, has been arrested and taken away in front of the very eyes of her children under false, unfounded and unwarranted accusations that she hurt the feelings of an LGBT activist.
“Teatime. I was doing a roast chicken. Knock at the door. Two coppers. There’s been an allegation of harassment and malicious posts, and we’ve come to arrest you”.
Caroline was dismayed… She immediately asked to see a warrant, but a 6 foot 3 police officer forced his way through the front door, arrogantly claiming that he didn’t need a warrant.
She knew instantly who was behind these false accusations: the same radical transgender activist who previously tried to have her thrown in jail and never stopped to harass Caroline and her family! The same activist who has had two other women arrested in identical circumstances.
It should terrify us all that the police can simply take an LGBT and transgender activist’s words for something, storm into your house and arrest you.
The Surrey Police Department, and those who called for Caroline’s arrest, should be ashamed of such a forceful, disgraceful and unnecessary intrusion, and MUST be held accountable — she needs all of our support now, more than ever.
I am sick to my stomach hearing about what has just happened to Caroline, and have no words to describe how her young children and family must be feeling right now.
One minute you’re cooking dinner, the next, you are being taken to a cell! And just because your accuser, no matter if he’s lying, is a transgender activist!
For some time now, the authorities have been tracking Caroline, in her everyday life, as well as online, in pure authoritarian-like, Soviet fashion.
Back in 2019, she found herself under investigation by her local police force after she described the sex-reassignment surgery performed on a sixteen-year old boy as ‘castration’, ‘a form of child abuse’ and ‘mutilation’.
Following a media backlash, transgender lobby activists did whatever it took, to ensure that Caroline was punished. One such, was Stephanie Hayden who began targeting Caroline over social media in a relentless campaign of abuse, that included attacking her Catholic faith, making several threats and attempting to get her de-platformed from the media.
Caroline’s entire family has been harassed with prank phone calls, targeted with exposure to disgusting explicit materials, and stalked on social media.
Did it make any difference that Caroline repeatedly asked for protection from the police? NONE! Sadly, she is not a transgender activist, she’s only a Christian mother trying to stand up for her values and protect her family.
Having monitored Caroline ever since, yet despite the lack of any notable evidence, the Police decided to raid the house, ruthlessly seizing all of her and her family’s devices, including the homework iPad that Caroline’s 10 year old daughter with autism uses for her homeschooling.
“As I was stripped of my personal belongings, I kissed my cross necklace before putting it in a plastic bag. I’ve never taken it off since it was given to me.”
We’ve seen recently how the establishment is clamping down viciously on our fundamental freedoms, particularly on our right to our own thoughts and beliefs, which are the core of who we are.
We’ve seen it with Pavi Raasanen – Finnish MP who faced a jail sentence in a lengthy trial for posting a Bible verse. We’ve seen it with Maureen Martin, who was fired from her job for expressing her religious beliefs. And even most recently, Irish teacher Enoch Burke, who was jailed for refusing to validate gender ideology.
How many countless others must there be?
Let’s not think for a moment that this is some kind of a distant reality.
We must wake up to what is happening. We need your help immediately to fight to halt this totalitarian attack on our ideas, our beliefs, and our freedoms! It is up to us to make sure these kind of attacks do not continue to repeat themselves.
While Caroline was being arrested, the transgender activist posted a picture in his social media literally popping a champagne bottle and celebrating how a mother of five is arrested in front of their autistic children, for something she hasn’t done.
The persecution will have no end, if we don’t stand up to it NOW! If it can happen to a Christian mother of 5 in a rural English town, it can happen to anyone — including you and me!
A Strange Sort of “All Candidates” Debate at McMaster
McMaster is one of Canada’s leading universities. On Monday, October 17, the McMaster Students’ Union hosted sparsely attended mayoralty debate. The leaders in the race, at least as decided by the Fake News CBC, Andrea Horwath and Bob Bratina did not show up. CBC (October 18, 2022) reported: “Monday’s mayoral debate, which saw candidates Michael Pattison, Ejaz Butt, Keanin Loomis and Solomon Ikhuiwu attend, was part of the push by groups like the McMaster Student Union (MSU) to get out the vote, during the final week of the campaign.” For some unknown reason, I did not receive an invitation. This would seem to be part of a widespread campaign by Hamilton’s leftist elite and media — I was warned about this, by a man who has worked closely with the People’s Party of Canada and seen the same tactics at play — to isolate me and deny me as much exposure as possible. It’s sad that a university, which should be a forum for lively debate and clash of ideas should be so restrictive and that was the doing of the students union not the administration! — Paul Fromm
On September 22, the Democracy Fund sponsored a lecture by writer and businessman Conrad Black and National Post columnist and former CBC personality Rex Murphy entitled The History of Civil Liberties in Canada, Part 2 to be held at the Canada Christian College in Whitby, Ontario.. Tickets had to be ordered online from Eventbrite. Accordingly, I ordered two tickets and invited a local supporter, Raychyl Whyte, to join me. We were cordially greeted by people I took to be Eventbrite staff and invited to go into the college auditorium. I took a seat and chatted with several people I knew. Just before the lecture was to start, I was approached by a burly man who asked if I would step out into the lobby. There he told me he was the head of college security. He said: “I want you to leave. The College wants you off its property now.” I told him I’d paid for my ticked and had been admitted. “The college will refund your money,” he said. But, I had not paid the money to the college and have not received the refund
Raychyl Whyte an associate of CAFE who attended the lecture contacted Cameron Ward Events Space Co-ordinator at Canada Christian College. He said that none of his personnel had ordered me expelled: ” He told me that he has made several attempts to find out information from The Democracy Fund, but claims to be “in the dark” as much as I am, because they have not responded. He has also spoken with all management staff at the College. The most he has been able to find out so far is that an (unidentified) employee at The Democracy Fund recognized you, knew about your “past”, and did not want you there.”
Raychyl Whyte contacted the Democracy Fund which is a Canadian charity. Its directors are Conrad Black, Dr. Julie Ponesse and lawyer Bob Moran. They are very hard to reach but seem to want donations. They require you to fill out an e-mail. A “Sarah” answered her e-mail but said the fund didn’t have the capacity to return a phone call. Raychyl Whyte wrote back: ” With respect Sarah, it is curious that your organization does ‘not have the capacity to call’, but evidently ‘does’ have the capacity to e-mail.” Nearly a month after her September 23 inquiry, she has received no answer. When h learned what had happened, YOUR WARD NEWS publisher Leroy St. Germaine who was in attendance, asked Rebel News bossd Ezra Levant why I had been ejected. He said he doubted it had been by the college but by the organizers, which would be the Democracy Fund whose mandate is “to advance constitutional rights in Canada.”” Very strange!
He said he was with the Christian College but they deny it

STEP 7 – NO MORE SELF-CHECKOUTS OR QR CODES + A BONUS HEALTH-RELATED STEP
We’re changing things up a bit and announcing 2 steps this week. One will continue to help disconnect us from the globalist agenda, the other will focus on our health and well-being. If you aren’t going to look after yourself, you’re no good to anyone.
Step 7 – Part 1
Never use a self-checkout or order food using a QR code unless absolutely necessary. If the cashier or waiter seems confused about why you won’t, use that as an opportunity to explain that you are part of the Global walkout and you are choosing to inconvenience yourselves to protect their jobs.
Avoid seed oils as much as possible. Oils like canola, cottonseed, and grapeseed…all of these are highly processed oils. On the global walkout website, navigate to this week’s step, and you’ll find an article explaining more about the dangers of consuming these types of oils. Use these points to start conversations with your family and loved ones.

Ursula Haverbeck Ordered Back to Prison – and her Rebuttal to this Order
13 October 2022
by Monika Schaefer
Ursula Haverbeck, born on November 8, 1928, has been told she must turn herself in to the prison within two weeks of having received the order, to serve her one-year sentence. This would mean presenting herself at the gate by October 25, 2022. The nearly 94-year-old German woman is guilty of none other than asking inconvenient questions about “the Holocaust” and where those alleged murders took place. After years of asking questions and never receiving answers, she drew “politically incorrect” conclusions.
With the help of an online translator and a few of my own corrections to it, this is my best effort to present an English version of her letter which she submitted to the court authorities. Frau Haverbeck’s original letter in German follows the English version. If bilingual readers find errors in interpretation, please put those in the comments.
It is simply astonishing with what chutzpah the so-called “justice” system in Germany operates, in order to keep the official narrative going. Someone – I wonder who – must be very afraid to let the truth emerge about what really happened in Germany during that chapter in history commonly referred to as World War Two.
For previous articles about Ursula Haverbeck on my website: please see this and this, both articles from December 2020 and this one from November of 2020 just after she was released from her 2&1/2 years in prison.
Here is the letter from Ursula Haverbeck:
**********************************
District Court Tiergarten 10548 Berlin Business reference (251b Ds) 231 Js 1640/16 (54/16) Objection to your communication of 07.09.2022 Notification to the Regional Court of Berlin
October 11, 2022
Dear Sir or Madam,
The judgment of the District Court Tiergarten of December 4, 2020 cannot be final, as the trial took place without charge. As a defendant, I had no idea what the trial was about. I was released from prison 12 days before the trial, had to find my way around my house, where there was water damage, and only at 4 p.m. the day before the 1st day of the trial (November 17, 2020, 10 a.m.) received the message that I had to attend in Berlin. I arrived in Berlin completely tired out and confused. I also do not have the Charges. That is why I could not prepare. On the 2nd day of the trial, the judge told me that I did not have to appear on the 3rd date on December 4, 2020, as only two witnesses were to be heard. On December 4, 2020, however, these witnesses were not heard (although present), but in fact a verdict was announced, without my presence and without the Last Word of the Accused. I still do not know the verdict of this case. Could you be so kind as to send me the indictment and verdict? Thank you!
Thus, the judgment of the Regional Court of April 1, 2022 is also invalid, because it states there and in your communication of September 7, 2022 quite clearly that the first judgment of the District Court Tiergarten of October 16, 2017 in conjunction with the second judgment of December 4, 2020 had been combined to a total penalty. Without the second trial at the Tiergarten District Court, the overall sentence would not have been possible. The sentence of six months would have remained or the appeal would have had to be upheld: i.e. no penalty.
How is it at all possible that a “judge at the district court” (cover page of the judgment of April 1, 2022) makes a judgment in the regional court – in a complicated and publicly known case? With this multitude of procedural errors, why was my appeal simply rejected without any justification? Even legal laymen can see that something is wrong.
I request the termination of the proceedings and the annulment of the judgment of the Regional Court of April 1, 2022. I would also like to point out that I am no longer in a position to serve a prison sentence due to my health.
Awaiting an early reply and with kind regards, ~Ursula Haverbeck ******************************** Here is the original letter in German from Ursula Haverbeck to the District Court and to Berlin. ********************************
Amtsgericht Tiergarten 10548 Berlin
Geschäftszeichen (251b Ds) 231 Js 1640/16 (54/16) Einspruch gegen Ihre Mitteilung vom 07.09.2022
Nachrichtlich an das Landgericht Berlin
11.10.2022
Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,
das Urteil des Amtsgerichts Tiergarten vom 04.12.2020 kann nicht rechtskräftig sein, da der Prozeß ohne Anklage stattfand. Ich hatte als Angeklagte keine Ahnung, worauf sich das Verfahren bezog. Ich bin 12 Tage vor dem Prozeß aus der Haft entlassen worden, mußte mich im meinem Haus zurechtfmden, wo ein Wasserschaden war, und bekam erst am Vortag zum 1. Prozeßtag (17.11.2020, 10 Uhr) um 16 Uhr die Mitteilung, daß ich mich in Berlin einzufinden hätte. Ich kam völlig übernächtigt in Berlin an und war vollständig verwirrt. Ich habe auch keine Anklage. Daher konnte ich mich auch nicht vorbereiten. Am 2. Prozeßtag sagte mir der Richter, daß ich zum 3. Termin am 04.12.2020 nicht erscheinen müsste, da nur noch zwei Zeugen zu vernehmen wären. Am 04.12.2020 wurden aber diese Zeugen nicht vernommen (obgleich anwesend), tatsächlich dann aber ein Urteil verkündet, ohne meine Anwesenheit und ohne das letzte Wort der Angeklagten. Ich kenne das Urteil dieses Verfahrens bis heute nicht. Könnten Sie so freundlich sein, mir Anklage und Urteil zuzusenden? Danke!
Damit ist auch das Urteil des Landgerichts vom 01.04.2022 hinfällig, denn es heißt dort und in Ihrer Mitteilung vom 07.09.2022 ganz eindeutig, daß das erste Urteil des Amtsgerichts Tiergarten vom 16.10.2017 in Verbindung mit dem zweiten Urteil vom 04.12.2020 zu einer Gesamtstrafe verbunden worden sei. Ohne das zweite Verfahren am Amtsgericht Tiergarten wäre die Gesamtstrafenbildung gar nicht möglich gewesen. Es wäre bei der Strafe von sechs Monaten geblieben oder es hätte der Berufung statt gegeben werden müssen: keine Strafe.
Wie ist es überhaupt möglich, daß eine ,,Richterin am Amtsgericht” (11. Deckblatt des Urteils vom 01.04.2022) ein Urteil des Landgerichts fällt – in einem komplizierten und öffentlich bekannten Verfahren?
Bei dieser Vielzahl von Verfahrensfehlem: Warum wurde meine Revision einfach verworfen, ohne jede Begründung? Da können selbst juristische Laien erkennen, daß etwas nicht stimmt.
Ich beantrage die Einstellung des Verfahrens und die Aufhebung des Urteils des Landgerichts vom 01.04.2022. Zudem weise ich daraufhin, daß ich mich heute gesundheitlich nicht mehr in der Lage sehe, eine Haftstrafe anzutreten.
[Kanye West is the latest minority to learn that while you may trash White people[this rapper and supporter of Donald Trump doesn’t] criticism of the most privileged minority, Jews, will land you up to your ass in alligators. The Silicon Valley censors are at it again, scrubbing Kanye for criticizing the most privileged minority.]
Twitter and Instagram remove antisemitic posts by Kanye West
By Bryan PietschUpdated October 10, 2022 at 8:00 a.m. EDT|Published October 10, 2022 at 7:35 a.m. EDT
Twitter confirmed Sunday that it had removed a tweet by Ye, the musician and fashion designer formerly known as Kanye West, and temporarily prohibited him from further posts on the platform, as the fallout from his recent antisemitic comments on social media continued.
His account, @kanyewest, was “locked for violating Twitter’s policies,” a Twitter spokesperson said in an email Sunday, declining to state which policy he had violated. The account shows that a recent tweet violated Twitter rules.
Though the tweet is no longer visible on his account, screenshots shared widely on social media show that Ye had said he would go “death con 3” on “JEWISH PEOPLE,” an apparent reference to Defcon, the U.S. military defense readiness system. In the tweet, he used antisemitic tropes and said he could not be antisemitic “because black people are actually Jew also.”
The action by Twitter comes after Instagram removed a post from his account and similarly locked his account temporarily. A spokesperson for Meta, the parent company of Instagram formerly known as Facebook, said in an email that the platform “deleted content from @kanyewest for violating our policies and placed a restriction on the account. We may place restrictions on accounts that repeatedly break our rules, for example, we may temporarily restrict them from posting, commenting, or sending DMs.” Screenshots of the post show that Ye had posted an apparent conversation with the rapper Diddy, employing antisemitic tropes to allege that he was being influenced by Jewish people.
After Ye was restricted by Instagram, he took to Twitter, in a tweet still visible on the platform, to criticize Mark Zuckerberg, the chief executive of Meta, writing: “Look at this Mark. How you gone kick me off instagram,” along with a photo of the two together in a group.
The Saturday posts came shortly after Ye tweeted a photo of a baseball cap labeled with “2024,” an apparent reference to the 2024 presidential election. The tweets were his first since 2020, when he had tweeted, “KANYE 2024.”
His social media posts have also garnered attention from political and societal figures, with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) admonishing him in a tweet late Sunday, writing: “There is absolutely no room in this country or world for antisemitism. It is important to see how harmful + dangerous Kanye’s words are — not only to our Jewish brothers, sisters, & siblings, but also to our collective society at large. We must reject this … wherever we see it. ”
Some on the right have come to defend Ye in recent days. Elon Musk, the chief executive of Tesla and SpaceX who has been engaged in a legal battle over his reneged offer, and subsequent reversal, to buy Twitter, responded to his tweet about Zuckerberg, writing: “Welcome back to Twitter, my friend!”
Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita (R) tweeted a link to an MSNBC blog post about Ye’s recent controversies, criticizing “the media,” which he said had “gone after Kanye for his new fashion line, his independent thinking & for having opposing thoughts from the norm of Hollywood.” Rokita followed up by saying that his post “was specifically and clearly aimed at the hypocrisy of the media and Hollywood elites, not anything to do with other comments. I have an obvious, clear and substantial Congressional and public record of being 100% supportive of the Jewish community and Israel.”
Kelowna will be part of the 2nd leg of this tour. More info will be forthcoming in the near future. Stay tuned!

Election Day is fast approaching. A trusted friend did a bunch of research and helped me select the candidates that we believe have Kelowna’s best interests at heart. Only one recommended Trustee is an incumbent. In other words, it’s time to clean house. When your city and schools are run by individuals who’ve sold their souls to the Devil, their accomplishments are the Devil’s work. We’ve been bystanders witnessing this once beautiful city fall to the hands of greed and corruption for years now. And what’s been happening in our school system is heart-breaking. The children need you to care and take action!
Many individuals have recognized the need for change and felt inspired to put their names in the election hat (45 in total). But most of them are not awake to the deeper issues that are contributing to Kelowna’s downfall. Some are incumbents addicted to the power, many others want change but don’t understand the underlying issues. Most of these individuals have not gone down the necessary rabbit holes that lead to awakening. Many have good intentions and practical solutions, but can we afford to wait another four years for them to possibly wake up? Once elected, will they have the courage to investigate the ugly truths and expose them?
It’s easy for anyone to provide a plethora of great-sounding solutions, but if these solutions don’t involve digging below the surface to expose the rotten foundations first, they will become nothing more than band-aids that cover up the true cause of our problems.
Being an incumbent makes you an easy shoo-in. These candidates count on the non-voters to get them back into office. We know there will be the expected number of voters who will simply vote for those they recognize. This is classic behaviour of the non-thinker. Many will vote for candidates that have a great personality and charisma (ex: actors like Trudeau), others will vote for people whose platform resonates with them. Be we need people who are awake to steer this ship back in the right direction. That won’t happen by simply having great public speaking skills and legitimate-sounding solutions. We need people who possess higher consciousness to make wise decisions and provide a voice for the rest of us who have been silenced for the past two and a half years.
Please make the effort to vote for these candidates. They need your support to get into office so they can advocate for your concerns. Print the above PDF Kelowna Civic Elections Pamphlet at the top of this email, make copies and distribute them in your neighbourhood. Let’s help wake people up and provide recommendations that will benefit us all!

New Credit Card Fees
Recently it has been announced that as of Oct. 6, merchants will be allowed to charge customers a fee for paying by credit cards.
The alleged reason is because retailers fought the credit card companies in 2010.
They settled out of court and part of this settlement, is that they can charge more for the use of these cards.
Telus has announced that it will be charging 1.5% extra for using credit cards.
Here is another reason to use CASH!!
I discussed the problems of these fees at our Kelowna Sat. rally.
The announcer, in this CBC audio newscast at the link below, opens by a second announcer and a shopper, admitting to buying a Fresca using a credit card and no longer carrying cash. Why would you do this? This is really a stupid move. And when asked if she would continue to do so her answer – a stupid reply:“I’m a tapper”.
The dangers of digital gov’t ID and currencies are here… you need to use cash.
Start by withdrawing money on Sunday from the bank machine, and then leave your money at home if you are scared to carry it with you, and just carry small amounts of cash for each day’s purchases for the week.
NO MORE CARDS!!!! USE CASH!!!

BC Gov’ts are getting justifiably scared of the number of people running for councils, mayors and school trustees in this upcoming Oct. 15 municipal elections.
Anytime our gov’ts get scared they issue press releases and/or internal communications, labeling freedom activists and/or concerned parents, as “extreme right”, “racists”, that we spew forth “hate” and similar pejorative names. They are repeated in almost every article or release in relation to our activities to the point that people actually start to believe their lies. Of course, no option is made for us to reply in confidence to dispel these myths with facts. No opportunities are provided for public debates so people can make up their own minds.
Bear in mind that there is a reason and place for every emotion – including hate. Showing porn to our students is legitimately hated, and should be. Having usury (interest) in our money system is unconstitutional and legitimately hated.
Gov’ts and media promote the idea that “hate” is something we all most, well, “hate”, not because it is true, but because it frightens people from dealing with topics that they would prefer to ignore – like immigration destroying our culture, or the fraud that “multiculturalism / diversity is our strength” and other false allegations and concepts.
To avoid participating in controversial issues, people, including parents, decide to do nothing, even if it is harming their children. I hate apathy!
See how the BCTF shows its fear of our determination to have people in power exposing their corruption, and their false allegations against us.
Yes, I hate wimps, idiots, and corrupt gov’t officials who promote the destruction of our law, our culture and our society.
Each Sunday, for as long as we can, we are delivering Druthers/Pandemic Papers Publications, including CLEAR rally cards and other important inserts such as our Masks/PCR brochure, and the recently released UNITY Health & Sciences brochure, for door-to-door delivery to all the mail boxes in Kelowna
See these inserts below
Though labour intensive, the outings are enjoyable and productive
But we need YOUR help!
There is simply no other way we can reach so many people who have believed the Gov’t/MSM narrative/lies
Join us each Sunday by signing the CLEAR Newspaper Delivery Sign Up Sheet at the CLEAR table & providing your EMAIL address to Linda & Nikki.
We need about 8-10 people to deliver about 100 flyers each – only about 90 min.
Each Sunday we will meet at a specified location to be announced by email on Saturday night. Start times will be 11:30 a.m.
Many recipients continue to thank us for delivering these to their doorsteps!
Contact Unity Health & Sciences Team to volunteer to distribute their professional brochures and Medical Doctor Packages throughout your home area, and to your medical doctor!
Not every doctor, analyst, and specialist is on the gov’t side and many have strong science and personal experiences opposing the gov’t narrative.
These Mayors, many of whom are likely corrupt to the core, have been returned to office simply because no one ran against them. How can we complain if we don’t oppose them?
Vote only for people who value freedom!
Municipal Elections

Please obtain a copy from Tom on Saturdays and pass along to informed and uninformed alike!
NOTE:Allegedly due to an unexpected surgery for the Commissioner Paul Rouleau, these hearings, if you wish to make submissions, have been delayed one month and are not set to start on Oct. 13 and to end in November.
Commissioner Paul Rouleau said in a statement that he intends to hold the government to account and wants the inquiry to be as “open and transparent” as possible.
Hearings will be livestreamed online and members of the public will have opportunities to share their views, with a final report expected early next year.
NOTE: See if you can contact Paul Rouleau and determine how you can make submissions to this inquiry, especially if you have new or important information to share that has been kept from Canadians by our corrupt Gov’ts and media.
“Air Canada welcomes the removal of these restrictions, acknowledging that air travel is safe and that the measures were not justified by science. We believe it will greatly facilitate travel, help to continue stabilizing the country’s air transport sector and support Canada’s economy.
Customers and crew will still have the option to wear masks and we also encourage customers to monitor their own health to be sure they feel well and fit to travel,” said Craig Landry, Executive Vice-President and Chief Operating Officer at Air Canada
Then why didn’t you do anything about this and lie to your customers by telling them they had to wear a mask?
CBC Investigates 70 women who almost died or had problems with childbirth. Of course, no mention is ever made of vaccine related complications as the source…it is either chalked up to an unknown, or to acknowledging symptoms such as a heart attack caused by postpartum hormones, but never analyzing why the hormones were so high in the first place. Experimental COVID injections????
