“If you find what you are reading difficult to believe—that is because it is dystopian for the government to give Pfizer billions, mandate Americans to take its product, prohibit Americans from suing for harms, but yet refuse to let Americans see the data underlying its licensure,” Siri said.
Canada will not send any official representatives to the Beijing Winter Olympics in February as part of a growing diplomatic boycott by allies over China’s record of human rights abuses.

” … Both Democrats and Republicans are raising alarms about McKinsey’s lucrative and highly sensitive contracts with the Pentagon during the Barton years while the company simultaneously provided blue-chip services to shadowy Chinese state corporations, including the blacklisted China Communications Construction Company (CCCC), which has been building heavily-militarized artificial islands in the South China Sea. It was only a few months before Barton’s appointment that Ottawa blocked the CCCC from acquiring Aecon, one of Canada’s biggest construction companies, on national security grounds.
NEW YORK (AP) — The Rev. Craig Duke has been a Methodist minister for three decades, building a reputation as a staunch advocate of LGBTQ inclusion. His pastoral duties have now been terminated — the result of a bitter rift surfacing in his Indiana church after he sought to demonstrate solidarity by appearing in drag alongside prominent drag queens in the HBO reality series “We’re Here.”
China’s ambassador to Canada said Tuesday that denying Huawei Technologies access to Canada’s next-generation 5G wireless network would send a “very wrong signal” — raising the diplomatic stakes for the Trudeau government as it prepares to issue a decision on the file.
While some of Canada’s Five Eyes intelligence-sharing allies have made aggressive moves against Huawei — citing concerns that it is an arm of Chinese military intelligence — Canada has stalled on publicly declaring which companies will be permitted to supply equipment to providers of 5G networks.
Beijing’s top diplomat in Ottawa, Ambassador Cong Peiwu, suggested today a decision by Ottawa denying the media giant access would be received poorly by the Chinese business community.

Omicron COVID-19 variant reported in 57 countries, hospitalizations likely to rise as it spreads: WHO
The Omicron variant has been reported in 57 nations and the number of patients needing hospitalization is likely to rise as it spreads, the World Health Organization said on Wednesday.
The WHO, in its weekly epidemiological report, said more data was needed to assess the severity of disease caused by the Omicron variant and whether its mutations might reduce protection from vaccine-derived immunity.
Booster dose of Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine neutralizes Omicron variant, company says
BioNTech and Pfizer said on Wednesday a three-shot course of their COVID-19 vaccine was able to neutralize the new Omicron variant in a laboratory test and they could deliver an Omicron-based vaccine in March 2022 if needed.
In the first official statement from vaccine manufacturers on the likely efficacy of their shot against Omicron, BioNTech and Pfizer said that two vaccine doses resulted in significantly lower neutralizing antibodies but that a third dose of their vaccine increased the neutralizing antibodies by a factor of 25.
Will COVID-19 boosters be required to be considered ‘fully vaccinated’? Expert weighs in
… Researchers have found that the immunity from two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine wanes over time, meaning Canadians will require another dose to “boost” their immunity to the virus.

Ontario extends pause on reopening plan indefinitely as COVID-19 situation worsens
Reid said, “Let not forget the many who laughed at Donald Trump back in 2016 and even after he was elected. Thanks to four years of Trump, this is a backsliding democracy, according to an international think tank. And that’s no joke. The truth is this country doesn’t have a great track record of recognizing authoritarians for what they are, at least not until it’s too late.”
Cases of COVID-19 are on the rise across Canada’s most populous province of Ontario, thanks to the Delta variant, while Omicron “will hit us hard and fast” next year, an expert panel said on Tuesday.
Covid, Covid, Covid. Variant, variant, variant. Trust me, I’m the government’s highest paid employee, and “I represent science.” Show your papers, wear a mask, take a shot or lose your job. And the beat goes on for an infection where 99.95% of infected persons under age 70 years recover. It’s becoming clear that COVID-19 is not merely a disease but an excuse to concentrate power in the government.

On “The Rubin Report” Monday, BlazeTV host Dave Rubin discussed University of Pennsylvania student and transgender swimmer Lia Thomas, who shattered U.S. women’s records over the weekend.
Thomas swam for three seasons in the male division as Will Thomas, but has been dominating in the women’s division this season. In November, Thomas swept the 100-meter, 200-meter, and 500-meter freestyle events, smashing records in the process. During an event in Akron, Ohio, last weekend, Thomas once again crushed records in three events, including two new Ivy League records. In the 1,650-yard freestyle, Thomas finished an astonishing 38 seconds ahead of the closest competitor, UPenn teammate Anna Sofia Kalandaze.
There is no climate emergency. This much is apparent to anyone who is paying attention. Even members of Calgary city council who voted in favour of declaring a climate emergency in the city acknowledge that is was a symbolic declaration. They are right — as far as helping the environment in any meaningful way, this declaration is empty virtue signalling. Phony virtue is not all this emergency declaration signals, however — it is abundantly clear that progressive politicians want us living in a perpetual state of fear so that they can do what they wish and seize more power. We are jumping from one emergency to the next.
