SHAME ON CANADIAN DEMOCRACY, MEDICAL ESTABLISHMENT, GOVERNMENTS, CP24, TORONTO STAR -- OUR GREATEST SHAME DURING COVID-19

 

CANADA IS OUR PERSONAL SHAME!

I love Canada dearly and the people but I am totally ashamed of what my home by choice, Canada, has done to all Canadians during Covid-19, an illness 99.7% of which current cases are mild and even in the height of the pandemic 99-4% of the cases were mild.

 LOCKDOWNS AND RESTRICTIONS

Canada is purported to be one of the world's great democracies. However, Canada, and especially the province of Ontario, has demonstrated that it has no respect at all for human rights, human freedoms, or  human dignity. Arrests, fines, seizure of property were faced by anyone who defied the lockdowns or restrictions. The city of Toronto faced the longest continuous lockdown in the world - 7 months with no break

 DEATHS AND FINANCIAL DESTRUCTION

Canada posted increased deaths among neglected non-covid-19 patients such as cancer; heart and stroke; lung, kidney, liver; HIV aids, etc, There was an increase in suicides and death from domestic violence because of prolonged quarantine and self-isolation. Jobs, livelihoods, homes, and human dignity were lost because of the financial crash caused by lockdowns and harsh restrictions. In Toronto alone, over 3000 small business collapsed, including bars, restaurants, and many other tourist attractions, the life blood of Toronto's tourist industry.

PERSONAL TRAGEDIES

Six of my friends died of heart complications after their life-saving heart surgeries were cancelled to make room for Covid-19 patients. None of my friends survived more than 10 days. The medical world callously calls them -- COLLATERAL DAMAGE.

Two of my friends died of cancer. Their surgeries to remove cancerous tumours were postponed 4 months. In that time, their cancers metastasized, and my friends died within a few more months. The medical world callously calls them -- COLLATERAL DAMAGE.

One of my friends was severely depressed during the 7-month lockdown in Toronto. He had lost his job and there was no end in sight for the lockdown. He jumped off his condo balcony and landed on a roof outcropping just outside our bedroom. I saw the EMS try to futilely revive him. The medical world callously calls him-- COLLATERAL DAMAGE. 

THE CANADIAN PRESS SUPPRESSED ANY DISSENTING OPINIONS.

Canadian press with few exceptions NOTABLY THE TORONTO GLOBE AND MAIL, would allow only opinion and reporting which supported the call for lockdowns and harsh restrictions. Any subscriber who tried to present information which questioned the lockdown and restrictions because of  the damage caused  had their comments deemed "against community standards" and were censored from publication. In Ontario, CP24 and the Toronto Star were the greatest offenders of freedom of speech. They would have fit in well in the Nazi propaganda machines so well promoted by Germany in the 1930s and 40s.

PROFESSIONALS AND POLITICIANS DISCIPLINED

What is even worse in Canada is what happened to politicians and professionals who tried to start a dialog to discuss what was wrong with the lockdown and restrictions imposed by governments on the advice of a misguided Medical Oligarchy. Dissenting professionals were disciplined and forced to be quiet. Members of legislatures were banned from their respective parties. Is this how a democracy functions? Well, it has been working this way in Canada!

CANADIAN COURTS

There are groups in Canada who have taken the lockdown laws and restrictions to lower courts hoping to get the laws declared unconstitutional, especially in light of Canada's Charter of Right and Freedoms. However, the government lawyers with the help of the lower court rulings have had the cases stopped because of technicalities, such as questioning the right of a Canadian Citizen to challenge a provincial or federal statute which contravened the constitution.

Courts are supposed to be a resort to protect democracy when governments fail. CANADIAN LOWER COURTS HAVE PROVEN TO BE AS UNDEMOCRATIC AS OUR GOVERNMENTS. IT IS A SAD SITUATION FOR CANADA.

CANADA IS OBVIOUSLY NOT A DEMOCRACY. IT WAS A HARD LESSON AND A HEART-BREAKING LESSON FOR ME TO LEARN. CANADA CHOSE A "PYRRHIC VICTORY?" OVER COVID-19 INSTEAD OF PROTECTING IT CITIZENS HUMAN RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS!

NOT ONLY IS IT TIME TO PUT A STOP TO THIS DESECRATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS, BUT IT IS ALSO TIME TO CRIMINALLY PUNISH THOSE WHO CONTINUED TO RAIN UPON THE WORLD THE DAMAGE CAUSED BY THEIR LOCKDOWNS AND RESTRICTIONS.
