Wednesday morning willies

Early this  morning I woke up with the feeling something was really wrong.  Thinking that if I was right even this government’s propaganda station (the CBC) would have some kind of spin on whatever was giving me the willies, I made a cup of tea and turned on my TV and was soothed  by the fact that nothing really new was happening,  in other words same old  CBC fake spin  about nothing to do with the Canadian people.

However, it is clear to me that we are actually at war.  None of our overpaid politicians will admit it, but the USA has dragged us into a NATO proxy war against Russia.  I do not believe that we have no boots on the ground in Ukraine anymore than I believe that Trudeau cares one whit about the Canadian people.

We will be sending tanks to Ukraine, count on it as the God Klaus has told his puppets here in Canada what he wants them to do, and anyway we have already donated billions by stripped money away from drinkable water for First Nations, affordable housing (how could a multi-millionaire in power understand that specially as he is living free at taxpayers’ expense anyway?) and a multitude of services that have fallen by the wayside – passports for one example.

I wrote to Freeland 4 times last year asking for an accounting of the money we have donated to her nazi buddy and have had not one word back from her. What a surprise!   Now we hear officially that corruption has been running rampant there and where the hell has our money ended up?  Yachts and mansions in the Cayman Islands anyone?

We have been training the Ukrainian nazi army for years, at Canadian taxpayers expense, teaching them how to kill, rape and torture those Russian speaking civilians in the Donbass region who do not wish to be Nazis. This has been going on since 2014, after the USA sponsored coup, without a word of condemnation from Canada as the Donbass has been turned into rubble. That in itself is some let down for the Canadian military, but just like our RCMP under Mendicino and Blair that has been turned into a militarized enforcement agency, it doesn’t seem to matter. Serving governments not the people, bastardisation is the name of the game.

We are told increasingly about young people using violence in one form or another and our presstitute media seem to be puzzled.  The modern babysitters are not people anymore but electronic gaming gadgets that teach the young how to “kill” with no concept of consequences, just a reset button if they fail.  Having taught them this art, why would we be surprised if they take this into the world?  Older people are such easy targets, as are people trapped in a public space doing a public service job.

During the Fauci/Gates/Trudeau plandemic, we turned their young lives upside down, took them away from their friends and made them even more reliant on “phone games”. We have stripped them of the ability to talk, to think constructively, play sports or act to protect their fellow citizens.  This is a generalization because there are many young who are not like that, but peer pressure can do strange things to the less aware.  Why then are we surprised?

The vaste majority of adult Canadians showed them how to be subservient and have mRNA injections because they were told to, and with no knowledge of what was in those injections or what effect they might have but fear and panic of a fake flu was enough.  Poor example I would say.  We pride ourselves on being mild and polite, but that acquiescence was actually very stupid, and showed our children that fear and panic was OK. 

Canada appears to have lost its backbone, and already the Freedom Convoy has faded even though every day the CBC lays claim to showing “whats new and whats happening” while they show a video of that convoy from a year ago.  Even today anyone who shows signs of protest in Canada is referred to as a fringe minority by our out of touch PM, and dismissed as meaningless. He does say though that they have the right to protest unlike the truckers last year.

Our health care system is broken, not due to lack of money, and more money will not fix it, but because of petty unelected provincial bodies called “colleges” of various branches of western medicine. During the plandemic any doctor worth his /her profession and who tried to treat their patients with existing medication when they got the flu, was cancelled.  The colleges removed their licenses to practice unless they agreed to jab everyone and not try to actually cure anyone.  Doctors, Practitioner Nurses and more left the field of medicine causing a shortage that still exists today, and thatnot money is the problem.  Here in BC our unrepresentative legislature has just passed Bill 36 which in essence gives even more quasi “legal” power to the unelected colleges which is not going to entice doctors to return to practice in BC.    No amount of cash will do that either as Doctors want to practice medicine not fulfill absurd demands to pad the profits of pharmaceutical corporations at their patients expense.

Can anyone tell me when Ukraine became or will become a democracy?  By definition there are very few democracies in the world, Canada and the Ukraine are very definitely not among them.

What we really lack in Canada is leadership, and I do not see a national figure on the horizon.

Unasked question

Last Wednesday, 2nd October 2019, I attended an all-candidates town hall meeting at Stelly’s School in my riding of Saanich and the Gulf Islands.

I wanted to ask a very particular question about the rolling out of the 5G networks here in Canada with the apparent full approval of Health Canada and all of our so-called representatives in the last parliament in spite of serious questions being asked by scientists.

It seemed a very logical question in light of the massive publicizing of “climate change”, but to my dismay, this was not a meeting at which my question could be asked as it appeared that the questions had been already presented by the pupils of the school.   Good questions too, one or two even had the possibility of humour in the answers but that possibility was largely ignored.

What is referred to as climate change is, I believe partially due to the earth having tilted slightly on its axis, caused maybe by massive earthquakes, underground explosions by nuclear powers (read the USA in particular), and whatever else.  This tilting is evidenced by the fact that the magnetic north of the earth has moved, if that is the right word, and now all old compasses are slightly off when compared to paper maps. Perhaps with Google Earth, GPS etc., paper maps will soon become just like the Dodo bird but until that happens – beware.  There is indeed a clear case for climate change but the reasons presented are perhaps more hysterical and political than real.  The change occurs at the local level, not to planetary one.

In my view, the problem, beside the tilting of the planet, is one of pollution.

Water:           Our already sick seas have been turned into a monstrous plastic garbage heap with the resultant damage to fish, birds, plankton and corral. Without those living things to feed it the sea has warmed and is now a very sick patient. The same applies to our rivers, lakes and aquifers which have been made toxic by cheap corporate dumping.   Read “Sea Sick” by Alanna Mitchell or the example of the Mount Polley Mine tailings pond dam collapsed causing massive damage to Hazeltine Creek and the toxification of the once pristine Quesnel Lake in BC.

Land:             Giant holes have been dug way down into the earth all across the globe and the earth removed has been washed with toxic chemicals and the toxic wash then dumped into manmade lakes only to have them poison the nearby waters when man-made earth dams break.

Air:                 Once there were blue skies with various shades of cloud, white fluffy things or dark storm things and various shades between.  Now there are long strings or plumes of greyish white that are deliberately sprayed into the blue skies. How many times have I been told they are contrails from passing jetliners? Can’t even begin to count. I have seen contrails and they disappear almost as fast as they appear.   That to which I am referring though do not disappear; instead, they grow in size, feather-like spikes come off them and it seems clear that something is dropping from them to the ground. Various claims have been made that they are sprayed from aeroplanes to reduce the heat of the sun and its effect upon the earth. Good lord, how gullible do we have to be to swallow that?  The problem with carbon dioxide is manmade as we continually destroy the earth’s ability to get rid of excess CO2.  The sea and the trees are the lungs of the earth and they need CO2 to grow, or stay healthy – non-acidic and cool in the case of the oceans.  Regretfully we are following the footsteps of previous civilizations such as the Sumerian or Mayan and destroying what is necessary to feed and house a constantly increasing population. There should have been a better way and maybe the next generation will figure it out if we leave them anything with which to work

Back to my question for the candidates which I never got to ask:

“Soo much talk about climate change, and no talk of the 5G networks which, thanks to Health Canada  (a totally compromised organization), are coming very soon to all Canada’s neighbourhoods which will make climate change immaterial as we will not be around to see it.  Do you support this 5G network?”

It would have been interesting to know which, if any of the candidates, were even aware of 5G as none of them mentioned it even obliquely.

If we allow 5G networks to go ahead and put receiver-transmitters on ever second telephone pole so that cars, phones, smart meters, toasters, TVs and washing machines etc., can not only talk to each other but report back to corporate and  government data banks; then the resulting damage to the electrical makeup of man, combined with the death of all bird, insect and other wildlife necessary for the promotion of growth of our foods, will inadvertently make climate change reversible as the most damaging invasive species know to earth will become extinct as well as all the other species we have destroyed.  The earth will recover when we have gone! We cannot eat money or plastic and we cannot drink oil!

19th Century Cree saying

“Only when the last tree has died, and the last fish has been

caught, and the last river has been poisoned, will they realize that

money cannot be eaten”.

 

The Silent Spring by Rachel Carson was in response to very harmful pesticides, and 5G is much, much worse.  Without insects and birds, how will we get our plants – especially food plants – to pollinate and grow to feed us?

Perhaps it would be best for the planet if indeed the human species died out, but I have children, grandchildren and even great-grandchildren who I hope will step up and solve the giant mess my generation and those immediately before and after have produced.

Meanwhile, I can become an increasingly grumpy old man I suppose.

Letter to the Premier of BC re 2012

Dear Premier,

I am sure you are overwhelmed with advice and suggestions from political pundits, journalists or lobbyists all paid to bend your mind in their favour, and with little interest in the people and families of BC. Here then are some thoughts from someone who is just a BC resident for you to consider (maybe) in this new year stretching ahead of us.

It is often said that health care costs are becoming too large a part of the provincial (and I suppose federal) budget, and my thought on this is that as you decrease the revenue, by decreasing or eliminating major corporate taxes, then inevitably the health care cost increases (even though in fact relatively meager) become a larger percentage of the decreased available budget. But then so does the cost of each MLA and the attendant staff for them. The point here is that even if health care costs were to remain static, their proportion in a decreasing pie increases upwards. The percentage tells only that there is a falsehood in announcing that health care costs are increasingly too high. No – the pie is being made too small.

I am a simple man without any degrees in economics but I do know that if my expenses outstrip my income I am heading for trouble. In fact I am now old enough that I should be able to survive without having to work, but it appears that I will still be working when I reach 8o simply to be able to eat and pay my MSP premium now increased to $64 per month, thank you. The other alternative is to borrow against the future and that incurs interest on the monies borrowed. This is what BC is doing and foolishly you are paying way too high compounding interest to commercial, probably international, banks instead of using the Bank of Canada. In fact you have told municipalities which borrowing organizations they should use have you not? and they do not include the Bank of Canada.

How often I have heard politicians of all stripes saying we have to lower or eliminate corporate taxes to invite investment in our country or province, and that to me is absurd. We have resources that the world needs and people who can and will work hard. I say to those corporations: “Come and get them and pay a fair share for them”. We have water we are giving away to resource developments which will poison our headwaters and eventually all our rivers, aquafers and lakes and then what will we use to drink and to irrigate our farms? But by then all our water will be owned and controlled by French companies through CETA ( and you had better believe they will not allow free access to “their” water for hydraulic fracturing for instance) , but we will still have the same problem and that is: how do you get around a toxic water supply?

It would seem to me that any company wishing to invest in a province would like to know foremost that the province is financially sound not going broke, and able to provide the manpower and services they will require. It is said that if you build a better mouse trap the world will buy it, in the same way BC can and should be a place where being a partner in prosperity for ALL is a requirement, not just a place that allows itself to be plundered for the sake of a dollar or two profit to outsiders.

Everything stems from a healthy budget which in turn means healthy revenues from ALL participants in our province not just the working stiffs.

Ms. Clark, the Bank of Canada was designed to help the Federal and Provincial governments and even the municipalities to avoid the high compounding interest of the commercial banks you are using now to cover your budgetary shortfalls. I recommend that you use the Bank of Canada to benefit us all today and help us establish a financially strong and vibrant BC for our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Your so called “work plan” seems to revolve around drilling, digging or “fracking” things from the ground and shipping the result along with raw logs to Asia and that really does us a lot of good doesn’t it? How about manufacturing some things Ms. Clark? We used to do that once and used B C people to do it . Now we only use people to dig and cut and then to ship raw materials overseas just so we can get those loaded container ships sent back here again with those same raw materials changed into cheaply made goods as it shows in your TV ads. Shouldn’t we be sending those containers back loaded with BC made products?

The BC Green plan is and always was a double standard and simply a Campbell/Liberal con game. If you add a carbon tax on fuels, and then use that tax to promote coal, gold and copper mines, as well as oil and gas exploration – including drilling in the Georgia Straight and up through the Charlottes ! – all of which are many times more carbon intensive and destructive than automotive fuels then there is an obvious self-defeating effect. With your tax exemptions and subsidies to the resource sector this carbon tax is paid for largely by the people who have to use cars because public transport is soo poor everywhere except perhaps Vancouver. Everyone knows that a certain amount of carbon is necessary for healthy forests and plant life and for healthy oceans. It is the commercial excesses and by products that are the main problem along with their attending toxic gasses and liquids. The fact is Ms. Clark that the only real beneficiaries of carbon taxes are corporations such as Goldman Sachs who corner the market in carbon futures and make a financial fortune without producing or doing anything of value. Surely you understand that the unproductive oil futures are what causes the price at the pumps and heating fuels to be so high? What we really need is a pollution tax exempted from any futures plan. So let’s have a REAL Green plan, not some flimflam mumbo jumbo.

Finally, Ms. Clark, Premier of BC, the biggest capital that BC has is not in the ground, but is above it in the form of the people of BC.

We are BC.

We are the past, present and future of BC and until politicians such as yourself not only recognize that but act upon it, BC has little of real value to offer the country or the world except to be open to the exploitation of our resources.

It’s not rocket science Ms Clarke, but rather common sense, which seems to have but little value today in the Canadian political worlds.

Please instead of expensive American and Harper style attack ads against your opponents, why not concentrate on BC and our real problems and fix them. That in itself would serve you much better in the eyes of those whose votes you are seeking. We are all tired of attack ads which indicate we are fearful children unable to think for ourselves.
