Prime Minister Justin Trudeau accused the Conservative party of denying the existence of the COVID-19 pandemic and opposing masks, but a True North fact check found this to be false.
Since the beginning of the coronavirus outbreak, the Conservatives have not denied the pandemic’s existence and had actually supported mask-wearing before the federal government officially recommended it.
A former senior civil servant alleged to have embezzled at least $11 million in COVID-19 relief money is now arguing the Ontario government is to blame for any losses it suffered.
In a statement of defence filed in Superior Court this week, Sanjay Madan blames the province for allegedly lax security measures that allowed “widespread misappropriation” of money intended to defray the cost of children learning at home.
Yes I included the ‘Ontario’s Corrupt Liberal Government’ tag and you know exactly why.
While Trudeau acknowledged that proof of a COVID-19 inoculation would not be out of place for travellers who already face similar requirements for other vaccines when embarking on international jaunts, he said a similar scheme for everyday activities in Canada raises “questions of equity.”
Exactly how is the Trudeau administrations vaccine distribution plan equitable?
A Canadian vaccine researcher says he believes that Chinese political machinations ended a vaccine partnership last summer.
Dr. Scott Halperin, the director of the Canadian Centre for Vaccinology, made the accusation Thursday to the Special Committee on Canada-China Relations.
The government response to COVID-19 has mostly been a failure. Theatric, yes—see New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo’s Emmy. Symbolic, yes. But there is no evidence shutdowns did anything but deepen the economic suffering, increase suicides, and prevent lifesaving medical tests and treatments.
With the exception of former President Trump’s effort to speed research, approval, and rollout of a COVID vaccine through Operation Warp Speed, and efforts to discourage the spread of the virus through border restrictions (now abandoned by President Biden), what policies can objectively be shown to have worked?
On Thursday night, a masked Biden tottered down a long, empty hall to a podium. He then gave the most bizarre presidential address in American history. After a grim recital of “facts” about the last year, Biden emphasized multiple times that Americans had better take the vaccine — and be grateful to him for his amazing ability to get the vaccine to Americans. He also insisted that, vaccines or not, the government’s in control and can lock all of us up all over again.
Face masks are a ‘ticking plastic bomb’: Three MILLION coverings are thrown out every minute and serve as carriers for other toxicants in the environment
Three million face masks are discarded every minute as a result of mass adoption during the coronavirus pandemic, and experts warn it could soon lead to environmental catastrophe.
Face coverings are being worn by the majority of individuals around the world in order to curb the spread of SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus which causes Covid-19.
However, they pose a greater risk to the environment than carrier bags because of their ubiquity and the fact there is no way to safely decontaminate and recycle them.
Even locked down City of Toronto workers are heading to the land of freedom and opportunity called York Region.
But this City of Toronto car was hardly the only representation at the corner of Steeles Ave. W. and Dufferin St., which has become one of those bizarre border points. There are so many great places to patronize on both sides of the street.
My hair is an ungodly mess, in fact I am at least three months past due for a cut, given I’m under home quarantine through the 19th ain’t nothin can be done even if I wanted to.
I could scoot up to Vaughan or wherever once freed but the guy who cut Kathy’s and my own hair for the last 20 years is still closed thanks to our Covid commissars.
He survived the 1st lockdown but just barely. He always treated Kathy so well I promised I would wait till he was open again to help keep him afloat.
Even if it means looking like Cousin it.
Ontario is reporting 1,371 cases of #COVID19 and over 64,600 tests completed. Locally, there are 371 new cases in Toronto, 225 in Peel, 111 in York Region and 109 in Hamilton.
As of 8:00 p.m. yesterday, 1,062,910 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine have been administered.

Tam, Hajdu confident in Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine
OTTAWA — Canada’s top doctor and federal health minister say they see no reason to halt the use of the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine in Canada, as other countries have done citing blood clots following inoculations.
Speaking to Evan Solomon, host of CTV News Channel’s Power Play, on Thursday, Chief Public Health Officer Dr. Theresa Tam said that because Canada hasn’t been supplied with the same batch of AstraZeneca vaccines as the several European countries who have suspended its use, there’s no need to follow suit.
If they’re endorsing it I’m staying away.
Canada’s chief public health officer Theresa Tam described COVID-19 as “low-risk” up until a few days before internal Trudeau government emails discussed the “accelerating” situation in Canada compared to China.
COVID-19 was “mostly under control in China, but accelerating in Canada” according to a March 20, 2020 email sent from Privy Council Office staffer David Hamilton.
Canada’s health minister Patty Hajdu said the government is “certainly working on the idea of vaccine passports” with its fellow G7 partners.
“I was on a call with my G7 health minister counterparts just a couple of weeks ago and that is a very live issue,” Hajdu explained last Sunday on CTV’s Question Period. “We’ll be coming back to Canadians as we understand more about the intentions of our counterparts internationally, and as we understand more about how that will unfold around the world,” she explained.
I’ll bet you haven’t heard this: more congenital anomalies/birth defects and emergency room visits were reported after getting a COVID vaccine in the U.S. than after any of the other 93 vaccine types in the CDC’s VAERS database. And more deaths than 92 other vaccine types.
Faster-spreading and potentially deadlier variants of the coronavirus are now responsible for around 40 per cent of new cases in Ontario, a figure that experts say should be a warning to the entire country about the threat of a third wave that could outpace vaccinations.
Ontario’s COVID-19 science advisory table is publishing a brief about the variants on Thursday, along with a new dashboard separating traditional cases from those screening positive for a mutation that signals one of three variants of concern.
Nearly one in two employees in some nursing homes has still not completed their consent form for vaccination, according to the most recent data from the association that represents the province’s nursing homes.
With such flawed studies and claims regularly echoed by politicians and media outlets—and with, of course, covid-19 posing a genuine threat to a small percentage of populations—it is understandable that the public can be scared into submission. Propaganda is propaganda, whether based on truth, lies, or a mixture of both. Since early 2020, in many European countries and some US states, we’ve seen that this social subservience has happened on a massive scale, and without much resistance.
