(And Neither Is Your Evening News)

Civil Unrest In Canada 2022

Points to Ponder for Canadians

The propaganda machine In Canada has been well-oiled. The Trudeau government has been injecting millions of taxpayers' dollars into mainstream media corporations to ensure that the population is fed exclusively the narrative that it solely provides. It should be noted that blindly believing everything MSM tells you is what you are expected to do as a good Canadian. Anything reported to the contrary, as a good Canadian, you must reject and denounce as being false. The government would never mislead us… Good Canadian🐕. As a government-funded body, the media reporting in Canada is inexplicably lopsided and exceedingly biased.

Do Your Own Research

A quick search on Google, YouTube, Rumble, Twitch, Twitter or any other social media platform of independent and non-politically motivated news sources paints a much different picture of the events currently unfolding in Ottawa. There are hundreds, if not thousands of live and pre-recorded reports from intellectuals and everyday people alike. There are doctors, scientists, independent journalists, politicians, police officers and other prominent figures who are doing their homework and challenging the biased ‘science' that we are all expected to blindly trust and follow.

Questions for every Canadian

Why are government-appointed doctors, analysts, scientists, lawyers, ‘specialists', and their control group opinion polls the only people we are encouraged and ‘allowed’ to follow and trust over hundreds of their peers who are also researching the facts, studying the details and coming up with very conflicting scientific DATA?

Why, when any of these people (many of whom have NO political agendas) try to voice their scientific findings and concerns, are made to look like quacks, conspiracy theorists and terrorists?

Why, still are these people and others with equally legitimate concerns being treated in a facetious, elementary school bully-type of way?

Why (with scientifically researched and proven facts and information in hand) are these concerned professionals being blamed for spreading misinformation, of malingering and being unabashedly silenced and wholly censored by the powers that be?

Why are Canadians not having a democratic chance to alternatively have their voices heard, much less even considered by the government?

I understand that there are some who may well be uneducated on the facts, misguided or making false claims, however most certainly, not all who share consternation about government policy and overreach fall into this category.

Why are intelligent members of our society with genuine, justifiable and reasonable viewpoints not being taken seriously? Being ridiculed, dismissed, and ostensibly ostracized, facing egregious name-calling by the ‘so-called’ leader of their ‘free' country.

A Slippery Slope

As the leader of Canada, blaming and shaming concerned citizens who dare to speak out against questionable government policies is ‘unacceptable' in my view. Calling people out publicly who may not share your views as racist, misogynistic, the fringe minority holding ‘unacceptable' views, conspiracy theorists, terrorists, flat-earthers, tin-foil hat wearing spreaders of misinformation, among a myriad of other disparaging and offensive insults only serves to destructively malign and further divide the populace of a free country which used to pride itself on unity.

A Slippery Slope Indeed
