Newly released documents showed the CDC planned to use phone location data to monitor schools and churches, and wanted to use the data for many non-COVID-19 purposes, too.

Surveillance aircraft over Ottawa during ‘Freedom Convoy’ protest operated by Canadian special forces, DND confirms
Canadian special forces were operating the mystery aircraft that flew over Ottawa during the so-called “Freedom Convoy” protests in late January and February, this newspaper has confirmed.
The U.S.-registered King Air aircraft was airborne over Ottawa on Jan. 28, Jan. 29, Feb. 3, Feb. 10 and Feb. 11, according to data collected by Steffan Watkins, an Ottawa researcher who tracks the movements of vessels and planes.
The White House can’t imagine why Americans would fear their dystopian disinformation board led by a far-left Mary Poppins’ impersonator
Biden branded his political rivals and millions of Americans, who opposed his radical plans to gut Senate tradition and pass partisan election reform, as enemies of the state.
Democrats colluded with the National School Boards Association to threaten to send federal law enforcement after parents who committed the ‘crime’ of challenging the Democrats’ destructive far-left school indoctrination.
Two weeks ago, former President Barack Obama warned that unregulated social media threatens to inflame ‘humanity’s worst impulses.’
Now – lo and behold – we have the establishment of the Department of Homeland Security Disinformation Governance Board, announced seemingly out-of-the-blue during a Senate hearing by Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
The Battle for Control of Your Mind
In his classic dystopian novel 1984, George Orwell famously wrote, “If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—for ever.” This striking image served as a potent symbol for totalitarianism in the 20th Century. But as Caylan Ford recently observed, with the advent of digital health passports in the emerging biomedical security state, the new symbol of totalitarian repression is “not a boot, but an algorithm in the cloud: emotionless, impervious to appeal, silently shaping the biomass.” The new forms of repression will be no less real for being virtual rather than physical.
These new digital surveillance and control mechanisms will be no less oppressive for being virtual rather than physical. Contact tracing apps, for example, have proliferated with at least 120 different apps in used in 71 different states, and 60 other digital contact-tracing measures have been used across 38 countries. There is currently no evidence that contact tracing apps or other methods of digital surveillance have helped to slow the spread of COVID; but as with so many of our pandemic policies, this does not seem to have deterred their use.
Canada Moves Forward with Plans to Implement Digital IDs
Canadian provinces are torn on implementing digital IDs. Alberta and Ontario have already begun the process while Saskatchewan has recently scrapped its plans. However, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (“TBS”) and Digital Identification and Authentication Council of Canada (“DIACC”) seem determined to forge ahead regardless of how citizens feel about their plans. They, of course, use the sales pitch of convenience to convince the public to relinquish their freedoms.
Conservative leadership candidate Leslyn Lewis rejected ushering in both a national and international digital ID in Canada
“Travelling across Canada these past few weeks, one of the most common questions I get is about the World Economic Forum (WEF), the Prime Minister’s post-national ambitions, and the threat of digital ID,” writes Lewis.
“Unfortunately, we continue to see the real fears and concerns of Canadians being dismissed as “conspiracy.” But what are we supposed to tell Canadians when the head of the WEF said about Justin Trudeau and our Government “We penetrate the cabinets…? I know that half of his cabinet or more than half are actually young global leaders of the world economic forum.”
FBI Conducted Potentially Millions of Searches of Americans’ Data Last Year, Report Says
The Federal Bureau of Investigation performed potentially millions of searches of American electronic data last year without a warrant, U.S. intelligence officials said Friday, a revelation likely to stoke longstanding concerns in Congress about government surveillance and privacy.
An annual report published Friday by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence disclosed that the FBI conducted as many as 3.4 million searches of U.S. data that had been previously collected by the National Security Agency.

Did a Key FBI Agent in Whitmer Plot Attempt to Surveil Steven Crowder?
It appears Jayson Chambers, one of the key FBI Agents involved in the entrapment effort, did just that. Why?
In 2017, Steven Crowder, a conservative activist and host of a popular YouTube channel, infiltrated Antifa with his producer.
Weeks before a speaking engagement by Ben Shapiro at the University of Utah—an event Antifa planned to disrupt violently—Crowder worked his way into the group through the use of burner phones and encrypted chats. Crowder secretly recorded discussions between Antifa thugs promising to use “plain clothes and hard tactics” to shut down Shapiro’s speech on September 28, 2017. This included distributing weapons such as ice picks, combat knives, and guns.
Ottawa police call in backup for ‘Rolling Thunder’ event, vow to head off ‘another unlawful protest’
City police say they have a plan and reinforcements coming to tackle this coming weekend’s “Rolling Thunder” event, preventing a potential reprise of the “Freedom Convoy” occupation that paralyzed Ottawa for weeks this winter.
The City of Ottawa’s stance is that no motor vehicle protests, rallies or events will be allowed in designated downtown core areas, the Ottawa Police Service said in a statement Monday.
Liberals Preparing Canadians For China-Derived Digital ID, Social Credit
When Canadian authorities are out to push citizens into compliance, they utilize a well-worn concept: they inform citizens that “our country is falling behind.” When it comes to Digital ID adoption, this is simply not the case.
The Liberal government are making significant strides forward in Digital ID implementation. Apart from China— founding nation of social credit-based digital identification, few nations of the world are further along the path than Canada.
FUREY: Digital IDs just the beginning — Canadians need to think hard about these issues
Saskatchewan announced a few weeks ago that they were nixing the planned rollout of their digital ID program due to privacy concerns and are happy to instead watch as other provinces act as guinea pigs.
Could this be the start of a backlash, or at least a slowdown, that brings greater scrutiny of an endeavour that up until now has gone ahead largely out of the public eye?
Peter Menzies: Twitter Joins Wave of Opposition to Liberals’ Attempts to Regulate Internet
Canada’s first efforts to create an Online Harms Act were described by Twitter as alarmingly similar to those employed by China, North Korea, and Iran.
“The proposal by the government of Canada to allow the (proposed) Digital Safety Commissioner to block websites is drastic,” states Twitter’s 2021 response to the Department of Heritage’s proposed legislation.
“People around the world have been blocked from accessing Twitter and other services in a similar manner as the one proposed by Canada by multiple authoritarian governments (China, North Korea, and Iran for example) under the false guise of ‘online safety,’ impeding peoples’ rights to access information online,” it continued.
A Social Credit System Aimed at Modifying Climate Change Behaviors is Being Deployed in Italy.
Italy will become the first European nation to implement a social credit system – where citizens will be rewarded for their “good behavior”.
