Read it and weep, snowflakes. The lies are exposed, the facts don’t lie, and people across the world can see the truth. The question remains: when will you stop lying to yourself and others, and start thanking your fellow citizens for fighting for your freedom? “Tamara Lich and Chris Barber, organizers of the most successful protest in Canadian history, kept their cool, kept the peace and brought national unity, patriotism and common sense back to Canada after the pandemic – this, despite the sustained efforts of the most aggressively controlling, divisive government the nation has ever had. They achieved this under intense pressure and at great personal cost. They’re national heroes, and the persecution waged against them is destroying trust in the Canadian judicial system, though the judge involved does not seem to realize it. Justice Perkins-McVey said in court that if she discharged the defendants, it would “undermine confidence in the administration of justice”. But it’s quite the opposite… There was another ironic moment at the sentencing. The judge announced, “Politics has no place inside this courtroom” – yet the trial has been widely viewed as nothing more than the political vengeance of Doug Ford and the Ontario government. If it weren’t for politics, Lich and Barber would never have been arrested, let alone put through jail time, solitary confinement, loss of employment, years of drawn-out, costly legal proceedings, onerous bail conditions and emotional strain… This means the public is paying twice – once as taxpayers, with money intended to pursue real criminals wasted on a political vendetta – and once again, voluntarily, to support the brave people who stood up to ask for an end to lockdowns and vaccine mandates. This is the same public that already gave $24 million to the truckers to help them go to Ottawa and protest vaccine mandates and lockdowns: $24 million that never reached them, because politicians colluded with fundraising sites and banks to freeze the money, debank the protestors and doxx the donors, all without a court order. No criminal charges have been laid in Canada, to this writer’s knowledge, against the perpetrators of these deeds, though they damaged national institutions far more than any protest ever could. Justice Perkins-McVey is right to be concerned about confidence in the administration of justice. Many Canadians share her concern. Sadly, her handling of this case has done little to dispel their fears.”

There’s nothing funny about churches in 🇨🇦 being firebombed & targeted, and yet there was laughter when @LarryBrockMP raised it in the House of Commons—disgraceful.

“WE COULDN’T HAVE KNOWN.” Really? It was never this easy to see through a PsyOp. Just look at the contradictions they fed you: 1. First, they said masks don’t work, then they forced you to wear them everywhere—even alone in your car. 2. They told you staying inside and avoiding the sun would keep you safe—even though Vitamin D is essential for a strong immune system. 3. They insisted you had to get vaccinated so others’ vaccines would work—and people still got sick. 4. They said the jab would stop transmission, then admitted it never did. 5. They closed gyms, parks, and beaches, but liquor stores and McDonald’s were “essential.” 6. They said your freedom was just two weeks away, then dragged it out for years. 7. They fired nurses for refusing the shot, then called it a crisis when hospitals with dancing nurses were understaffed. 8. They pushed lockdowns to save lives, while countless businesses collapsed, and mental health crises skyrocketed. 9. They told you the virus respected restaurant etiquette—harmless while you ate, but the second you stood up, it turned lethal. 10. They made you follow arrows in supermarkets, as if the ‘virus’ only targeted those walking in the “wrong direction.” You didn’t have to be a genius to see through it. You just had to think for yourself. It was never this easy to leave the matrix. And yet, most people still chose to stay plugged in.

You climbed on a politician's roof and terrified his wife who was home alone, you never apologised,and you have the audacity to bitch about protesters?

Benedict of Nursia wrote the rulebook on monasticism. But his rules reached far beyond the confines of a monastery—their effects rippled into medieval society and helped shape the world we know today🧵

Spent afternoon at Sechelt beach reading this mind-blowing book on the massive blood libel against Canadians regarding the “unmarked graves” of the Residential School System. There is no bigger fraud perpetuated by politicians, media & the academic elite than this claim Canadians murdered or committed foul play against the indigenous.
