People aged 14 and under in 2027 will never be allowed to purchase cigarettes in the Pacific country of 5 million, part of proposals unveiled on Thursday that will also curb the number of retailers authorised to sell tobacco and cut nicotine levels in all products.
According to government data, an unsettling 11,581 patients died while waiting to receive potentially life-saving healthcare including surgeries, diagnostic visits and specialist appointments.
A new website has been launched where people can tell their stories about being injured by one of the COVID-19 shots.
The name of the website is Real Not Rare, and they also have groups people can join, and it appears there is one group in each state.
They also have a “Take Action” section. Health Impact News subscribers will recognize quite a few of the people in their videos, as we have covered many of their stories here.
Sky-high food prices were one of many negative impacts that Canadians felt during the pandemic-plagued year of 2021. And a new report suggests that problem is only going to get worse next year.
The head of the Los Angeles Police Department’s union issued a dire warning to visitors. In an interview Wednesday, Jamie McBride of the Police Protective League warned tourists against visiting the city amid a surge in violent crime. He emphasized they simply cannot “guarantee your safety” as things have gotten out of control.
Time and time again, we’ve watched as a ‘return to normal’ is dangled in front of the populace, then pulled away the moment it’s about to take place.
I’ve written repeatedly about how those in power continuously move the goalposts, and clearly don’t actually want to give up their heightened level of control.
Whenever a new opportunity to spread fear comes up, politicians seize it immediately, ramp up the fear as much as they can, and then attempt to keep their expanded power in place regardless of the underlying reality.
The final approval of Pfizer vaccines for under-12s clears the way for the rollout to start from January 10, which a decision is pending on whether to give Moderna shots to younger children.

Copyright did not figure prominently in either the government’s election platform or the Speech from the Throne, but the two departments responsible for copyright policy – Innovation, Science and Industry led by Francois-Philippe Champagne and Canadian Heritage led by Pablo Rodriguez – have both been actively consulting on a myriad of issues this year. The departments just released the submissions they received to one of three consultations on copyright, this one on intermediary liability issues. There was a prior consultation on copyright term extension (expected in some form in 2022 given the obligations under the USMCA) and another on innovation policies such as an exception for text and data mining to support the development of artificial intelligence. I submitted responses to all three consultations (term extension here, AI will be posted shortly).
If a news consumer wants to understand media bias in Canada, simply call up the website of the Globe and Mail, our nation’s most respected news outlet.
There one finds the same omission absent from the National Post. Ditto for the Toronto Star, including under their “World” tab. The same applies to CBC News.
We speak of the departure of Angela Merkel as Chancellor of Germany. All over the world media are at this moment heaping praise upon her shoulders. CNN, BBC and countless other are waxing philosophical regarding the 16-year period Ms. Merkel remained leader of Germany.
Thousands of Canadians have lost their jobs, their education, their livelihoods and their well-being as a result of vaccine mandates.
They’re the one group of Canadians that our politicians openly degenerate, demean and scapegoat. And the legacy media insists on vilifying them rather than telling their stories.
We’ve lost our ever-loving minds. https://t.co/5N502No4AN

Those physicians who are authoritatively forcing the shot on all patients have blood on their hands. They should know better, especially regarding pregnant women and children. Never in my lifetime have we abdicated testing, crossed our fingers, and said, “Well, so far, so good. Let’s give it a shot on pregnant women.” There was always a significantly higher burden of safety here. The lone study done at the request of Japan showed that the injection of lipid nanoparticles concentrated in reproductive organs of animals at a very high concentration. There are now stories of NICUs filling up with newborns with heart issues. Recently a British Columbia obstetrician noted 13 stillbirths in one facility in less than 24 hours. Follow-up shows 2900% increase in stillbirths in the same facility. All mothers were purportedly vaccinated. The American College of OB/GYN is a joke for condoning, much less allowing this to happen.
Earlier this week, we learned the White House is aggressively courting the corporate media to “reshape [economic] coverage in its favor.”
Americans are awakening to the call to protect children from being sexualized. Following the national news coverage of local school board meetings in Virginia, many U.S. citizens are shocked to learn that today’s elementary school lessons include material that would make most adults blush. Whether or not you are a parent, it is stomach-turning to learn that our taxpayer dollars have been used to make sexually explicit materials available in school libraries and attendance to pornographic sex-ed lessons mandatory.
Critical Race Theory (CRT) teaches children to view everything through the lens of race and power. It teaches children that race is more important in their lives and to their future accomplishments than their own hard work, dedication, intelligence or character.

Twitter has banned the popular Maxwell Trial Tracker account from its platform. The account, affiliated with The Free Press Report from the PatriotOne Substack, posted updates about the claims raised in the criminal trial against Maxwell, who is accused of trafficking teenage girls for deceased billionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Given that we were banned from Twitter yesterday we have moved to alternative platforms where we will be writing short form content on the Ghislaine Maxwell trial and other corporate and political corruption. Any other account is not us.
This now banned Twitter account was our source for following the Maxwell trial through the menu button at the top of the page. We now have a button that links to the same account on Gab, where it will not be censored. Thanks!
Bad report cards could soon be a thing of the past in California as some of the state’s largest school districts are dropping “D” and “F” grades.
Los Angeles, Santa Ana, Oakland Unified, Sacramento City Unified and other California districts have decided to limit the use of “Ds” and phased out “Fs” in grading. High schoolers who fail a test or homework assignment can get a do-over or more time to complete the work.
Four days after the New Brunswick government announced that grocery stores are allowed to ban unvaccinated Canadians, elected leaders have remained mute.
The key offender here is something called “relative risk.” If there’s a one in a million chance of something happening, that’s a minuscule absolute risk. If it goes up to two in a million, it’s still a minuscule absolute risk that you really won’t get bothered about. But that same difference can be presented as a 100% increase in risk or a doubling, which sounds really awful.
When it comes to COVID, the overall rate of death is in the tenths of a percent in the most vulnerable population. Headlines about Republicans killing off their voter base are simply scaremongering in the decimal points using relative instead of absolute risk. The real rate of death under age 50 for COVID is “indistinguishable from zero” according to the weekly British monitoring service.
A video report hosted by Conservative Party Leader Erin O’Toole delivers damaging accusations against the government of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
According to the report, Chinese scientist Dr. Xiangguo Qiu had shipped 30 vials of 15 strains of deadly virus samples to the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China.
If or when human civilisation crumbles, a gigantic and unbreakable box will be the only thing that will remain. The box will store scientific data and provide future civilisations with information on how humanity collapsed. The project, dubbed Earth’s Black Box, is a massive steel monolith that will be built in a remote Tasmanian area, reported ABC (Australian Broadcasting Corporation). It is similar to the black boxes that are designed to investigate airline disasters and provide crucial information about what led to the unfortunate event. The Earth Box is expected to be loaded with solar-powered hard drives that will document and preserve a stream of real-time scientific updates and analysis on the world’s most pressing problems.
