15-Minute Lockdown – They are slowly introducing the New Lockdown, the New Norm
BY SIMONE J. SMITH
No more camping holidays,
No more weekends away,
No more visiting families that don’t live close to you,
No more choosing the school you child goes to,
All of your money, shopping, travel, entertainment, daily activities are tracked and monitored by your digital ID.
If you exceed or do not abide by the rules given to you by the government you could be denied access to everyday activities and even fined, all under the guise of conserving your carbon footprint…
“Don’t judge a situation by what is happening in that moment, let it play out and see where it goes.” David Icke
If you are happy to be surveilled 24/7, and don’t mind being locked down, controlled and told what to do then this article probably isn’t for you.
CLIMATE CHANGE, CLIMATE CHANGE, CLIMATE CHANGE…
I want you to think about how many times you have heard this phrase in the last two years. Media, our world government, oligarch’s have shifted the focus off COVID-19, and now they are priming us on a daily basis with this forced notion of climate change.
Priming is a phenomenon in which exposure to one stimulus influences how a person responds to a subsequent, related stimulus. These stimuli are often conceptually related words or images. Repeating the phrase “climate change,” activates and influences how the person responds to hearing it. Yes, they have made climate change a buzzword, something that we all have to take very seriously, like COVID-19. What they are now doing is utilizing the same techniques of fear, which will turn into intimidation if we, the people, begin to stand up against climate change.
I want you to take this article very seriously, because we are about to be swept up into a future that resembles “The Hunger Games,” where people are isolated into quadrants, and the freedom of movement that we once knew will be vanquished. We have been warning about this for over a year, and surprise, surprise, they are slowly introducing the new lockdown, the new norm.
Don’t get too comfortable with your new Normal; Climate Lockdowns might be on the way. (https://torontocaribbean.com/dont-get-too-comfortable-with-your-new-normal-climate-lockdowns-might-be-on-the-way/)
Published 11 months ago on March 21st, 2022, Toronto Caribbean Newspaper
In this article, I provided a warning for our community about what might be for us in the future.
In November of 2021, India’s Supreme Court called for a lockdown in the capital, New Delhi. Supreme Court Justices ordered authorities to halt all nonessential travel on roads in the national capital region. They also told them to close offices in the area, shifting tens of millions of people to work from home. It appears that something like this could be happening in more countries around the world.
In November 2020, the Red Cross made the claim that climate change was a bigger threat than COVID and should be confronted with “The same urgency.” Of course, the one and only Bill Gates recently demanded that something be done to prevent climate change, claiming it will be worse than the pandemic.
I want to bring attention to a recent interview that Bill Gates did with BBC Journalist Amol Rajan. In the interview, he responds to criticism that he uses a private plane even though he has urged political and business leaders to act aggressively against climate change. Gates replied that he more than offsets his own greenhouse gas emissions by paying for the removal from the atmosphere of carbon dioxide, the most prevalent greenhouse gas causing global warming.
“Well, I buy the gold standard, of funding Climeworks, to do direct air capture that far exceeds my family’s carbon footprint,” Gates said.
BILL GATES – Because he is so rich he is allowed to fly in his private jets wherever he wants. According to him.
Only the rich ‘doing it for the good of mankind’ aren’t forced to follow the rules. This is the new equity you are being asked to swallow.
— Bernie’s Tweets (@BernieSpofforth) February 8, 2023
Gates’ argument is that his own investment in clean energy and other environmental and public health programs warrants his travel for those purposes.
Hmmmm! So, because you are rich, rules do not apply to you, but they apply to everyone else. I want readers to keep this in mind as you read the rest of this article
“Unfortunately, there are no vaccines for climate change.” Preparation for permanent climate lockdowns! (https://torontocaribbean.com/unfortunately-there-are-no-vaccines-for-climate-change-preparation-for-permanent-climate-lockdowns/)
Published 4 months ago on October 15th, 2022
In this article, I refer to the World Economic Forum and their claims that if we take the measures needed (climate lockdowns, less private car ownership, less meat), by 2030, our CO2 emissions will be greatly reduced? Meat on your dinner table will be a rare sight. Water and the air you breathe will be cleaner and nature will be in recovery. They want to take lockdown compliance and then move that over to climate change compliance. They want climate change lockdowns. That’s what’s coming.
At the end of the article, I asked readers, are you prepared?
Carbon Allowances; you can only do so much
Here we are in February 2023, and much of what we have reported is slowly coming true. Another priming word that is being propagated is carbon allowances. What is a carbon allowance you ask? Well, how it works is pretty much the same way allowances worked when some of us were children. Everyone starts with a baseline amount. Right now, that could cover how much electricity you use at home, travel budgets, and the impact of your food, but if you want to take a long flight, or have a big fancy car or something else that pushes out a lot of carbon, you may need more credits than you initially get.
(Mastercard unveils new Carbon Calculator tool for banks globally, as consumer passion for the environment grows – https://www.mastercard.com)
Trading comes in when your allotment doesn’t exactly fit your lifestyle. If a household isn’t using their full allotment, they can sell or trade to those who need more credits. Typically, people with lower incomes have lower carbon footprints than their high-income counterparts.
This concept has been brewing for a while; the introduction of personal carbon allowances (PCAs), a mitigation policy proposal was developed in the 1990s. This policy aimed to link personal action with global carbon reduction goals. A PCA scheme would entail all adults receiving an equal, tradable carbon allowance that reduces over time in line with national targets.
In its original design, the allowance could cover around 40% of energy-related carbon emissions in high-income countries, encompassing individuals’ carbon emissions relating to travel, space heating, water heating and electricity. Allowances were envisioned to be deducted from the personal budget with every payment for transport fuel, home-heating fuels and electricity bills.
Think about it readers; our governments are buying into an idea to limit your ability to move freely. That is right, the constitutional right to move around the country will be severely restricted.
How are they going to do this you ask?
The Solution; Lockdowns for all
One of the biggest urban ideas to emerge from the pandemic is the idea of the 15-minute city or 15-minute neighbourhood. The concept was developed by French urbanist Carlos Moreno, and they refer to a place where all the necessities of daily life – shops, schools, workplaces, doctor’s offices, parks, libraries, restaurants and other amenities – are located in a short 15-minute walk or bike ride from home. In this way, each neighbourhood becomes an ‘isochrone’, an area that can be explored within a given time, giving all residents access to their needs a convenient walk away.
They promote that workers can live near their offices or co-working spaces, eliminating the commute. Anyone can walk to a small, nearby park without having to hunt for parking spaces. Community building will benefit too: parceling a city into smaller units makes it far more manageable from a social point of view.
15-minute cities have been in the planning for decades but in actual fact the first mention of smart cities on the WEF site can be traced back to 2016 in an article called “4 ways smart cities will make our lives better.”
The world is buying into 15-minute Cities
Various cities around the world have begun to embrace the 15-minute city approach. For instance, Melbourne is proposing self-contained communities within an 800-meter radius. Portland’s Climate Action Plan calls for more vibrant neighbourhoods in which 90% of the residents can walk, or bike to fulfill their daily needs.
The most vocal proponent of the concept remains Paris, where the concept originated. Its mayor Anne Hidalgo has been championing the “Ville du quart d’heure,” since early 2020, and has limited car speed to 30 kilometers per hour on many streets; automobiles have been banned along the Seine one Sunday each month; and plans to include a biking lane on every street by 2024 is also in the works.
Japan (The Woven City)
Toyota Motor Corporation started construction in 2021 on a 175-acre smart city at the base of Japan’s Mount Fuji, about 62 miles from Tokyo. The city, which Toyota has dubbed the “Woven City,” is expected to function as a testing ground for technologies like: robotics, smart homes, and artificial intelligence.
These residents, who are expected to move into the Woven City within five years, will live in smart homes with in-home robotics systems to assist with daily living and sensor-based artificial intelligence to monitor health and take care of other basic needs.
United Kingdom
15-minute city zones have been proposed by Oxford City Council as part of the Local Plan 2040 have garnered significant controversy. The plan, which will see traffic filters installed on six roads as part of a £6.5m trial, is set to commence in 2024. Under these new filters, residents will be able to drive freely around their own neighbourhoods but will be fined up to £70 for driving into other neighbourhoods through the filters. The plan’s aim is to create neighbourhoods in Oxford where ‘essential’ facilities are accessible by a walking distance of up to 15 minutes.
199 Cities in Canada have Signed on to 15-Minute Cities
What is happening quietly across Canada, without a whisper on mainstream media is the implementation of 15-minute cities. That’s right people, cities across the country will have this concept become part of your regular life. Let’s take a look at some cities that have signed on.
Innisfil (The Orbit Vision)
The town of Innisfil The Orbit Vision has been developed with both the existing and future communities in mind to ensure that Innisfil grows and continues to be a great place to live. The below five goals will be at the heart of the Orbit Potential & Innovation Plan (OPIP) and will be reflected in the community to come. Creating 15-minute neighbourhoods designed with a people-first approach and integrated greenspaces. They claim it will make day-to-day life easier using technology and Smart Cities concept without losing the focus on good neighbourhood design
Ottawa (Five Big Moves)
Ottawa introduced the “Five Big Moves.” On their official website they state that the principles of 15-minute neighbourhoods are integral to the strategic directions contained in Ottawa’s Draft New Official Plan. The concept of 15-minute neighbourhoods supports a variety of objectives relating to intensification, economic development, energy and climate change (buzzword), gender equity, and culture. Additionally, planning for 15-minute neighbourhoods represents a critical means of embedding health resiliency in planning in order to achieve healthier, more inclusive communities.
Edmonton (Community of Communities)
Their district planning is a multi-year project to build The City Plan’s “community of communities”—small towns in our big city, where people can meet many of their daily needs within 15 minutes from where they live.

Infrastructure Canada
Infrastructure Canada has an interactive map of the communities that applied to the Smart Cities Challenge. When you visit the website, you can click on the markers on the map to see more information about the communities and their applications.
What is scary is that there are already 199 cities across Canada who have signed up to relinquish their freedoms and once again acquiesce to higher powers.
There is a famous saying which says that “We only retain the freedoms for which we fight.” Eventually, we are going to lose our freedoms if we do not take them seriously. Our freedom is in danger of being hijacked by the so-called political parties, ideologues, corporate groups, and those who are truly running the world from the shadows. We thought we had gained our freedom from oppressors and monarchs in the previous century, but did we really?
The new face of tyranny is so compact, so well organized, and we as Canadians must STAND UP now and defend our most basic freedoms. We, the People need to take heart and be courageous and stand against this kind of oppression.
You can do this by writing, or calling into your local MP’s and saying, “NO TO 15-MINUTE CITIES.” Let’s not wait until it is too late.

Canada is Sinking – Is there a correlation between the rising economic costs, and the siphoning of funds to other sources in Canada?
BY ADRIAN REECE
At some point Toronto was a city that people enjoyed living in. Recent political leadership at every level of government has caused citizens to consider moving out of the country as a whole. The high cost of living, coupled with the difficulty affording housing, and remote work becoming more regular has made the rest of the world seem much more appealing for Canadians as a whole.
Many countries are offering travel perks and visas to travelers in the west, to encourage them to visit, or to even move into their countries. Costa Rica, Japan, and France currently have travel perks and have opened their borders to make it easier to enter. Specifically for Canadians and even more specifically Torontonians who work remotely, are looking to countries and cities with lower costs of living. The Canadian dollar goes far in other parts of the world.
We owe the struggling economy to a few factors. Political leadership has greatly impacted the state of Canada, immigration policies that have changed over the years have caused stress on Canadian citizens.
In 2023, the federal government released its new Immigration Levels Plan to welcome 485,000 permanent residents in 2024 and 500,000 in 2025 and 2026. This announcement came on the heels of an Environics public opinion survey revealing a significant increase in the number of Canadians who believe the country accepts too many immigrants. That marks a dramatic reversal from a year ago, when support for immigration levels stood at an all-time high.
The Trudeau led government has held true to their commitment to bring in millions of immigrants in a short span of time. Housing policy is draining the income of Canadians, and political debates do not provide any real answers towards understanding what is going on in the country. Consistent political scandals regarding Trudeau overspending, and not adhering to budgets, and using money that was originally allocated for certain things. Trudeau was audited and it was found that $123 million was given to ineligible businesses, or projects that should have never been awarded at all. This is one in a long list of Trudeau scandals that have been a part of Canada political identity for the last nine years.
Trudeau’s government has even siphoned off funds to their personal businesses, after audits by the auditor general, we have seen too many inconsistencies with the funding of the Trudeau government in misusing funds as well as money disappearing into places that it should not be going.
In June of this year, the auditor general (AG) released two reports about: improper contracting practices, conflict of interest, and funding provided for ineligible projects. What these reports brought to light is an unpleasant reality; politicians and bureaucrats in Ottawa do not always act in the best interest of Canadians.
According to the first AG report, Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC), the federal agency responsible for funding green technology projects, demonstrated “significant lapses… in governance and stewardship of public funds.” Nearly 20% of the SDTC projects examined by the AG were in fact ineligible (based on the government’s own rules) for funding, with a total price tag of $59 million. There were also 90 instances where the SDTC ignored conflict of interest provisions while awarding $76 million to various projects. Indeed, the AG found 63 cases where SDTC agency directors voted in favour of payments to companies in which they had declared interest.
The second AG report focused on 97 contracts totaling $209 million awarded by the federal government to the McKinsey & Company consulting firm from 2011 to 2023. According to the AG, the government demonstrated “frequent disregard for procurement policies and guidance and that contracting practices often did not demonstrate value for money.” About 70% of these contracts were awarded non-competitively, meaning no other companies were permitted to bid on the contracts. Interesting!
These findings also follow an earlier report in February that found the federal government “repeatedly failed to follow good management practices in the: contracting, development, and implementation” of the ArriveCAN mobile app, which cost Canadian taxpayers at least $59.5 million.
Is there a correlation between the rising economic costs, and the siphoning of funds to other sources in Canada? Potentially, it will take a lot more investigation to confirm if that is really the case. However, Canadians can see that there has been a drastic change in the economy since the Trudeau government has come into power.
For governments to work there needs to be transparency, and there has been a lack there of in regard to our political leadership in the last few years. There are too many scandals and too many mishaps with money. Too many policies that do not benefit the citizenry, and not enough effort made to rectify the sinking economy.
Canada cannot continue to stay in these dire straits, we are sinking, and leadership plays a big role in the state of the country. We won’t see changes unless we demand it, we can take a page out of France’s method of protest; other countries have set a precedent of what their expectations are, and Canadians need to do the same. They need to demand change and implement strategies to achieve it. Within acceptable methods of protest there exists a strategy and method of changing the nature of Canada’s problems, but it starts with the citizenry. Coming together is the greatest power we have, and we need to utilize it.

Welcome to the Black Scholars Institute—where excellence thrives, and liberation is pursued
BY SIMONE J. SMITH
At the heart of the University of Windsor’s campus, centrally located in the lower level of the CAW Student Centre, lies a space dedicated to fostering: African-Caribbean excellence, academic growth, and community empowerment: The Black Scholars Institute, or BSI.
The BSI Lounge is more than just a meeting place. It is a safe and welcoming space for African/-Caribbean faculty, staff, and students—a venue that fosters not only academic engagement, but community connection. Here, important university and local events, aligned with the Institute’s mission and values, take place.
The Black Scholars Institute is a multidisciplinary research institute—a home for African-Caribbean scholars at UWindsor. It is dedicated to advancing Black excellence and liberation through scholarship, research, and community engagement. The Institute’s work enriches teaching, learning, and social justice efforts across the University, with a focus on making an impact nationally and globally.
BSI hosts a range of weekly programs that encourage meaningful dialogue and academic collaboration. Events such as “Think Tank Thursday” provide a platform for African-Caribbean faculty and students to come together, exchange ideas, and discuss relevant research and current events. For those who are deep in their academic work, “Just Write” sessions offer dedicated time for focused writing in a supportive environment. “Coffee and Convo,” a collaboration with Leddy Library, creates space to explore Black literature and hold thought-provoking discussions around important topics.
Graduate students are invited to participate in student saloons, where they present their works-in-progress in a safe, inclusive space, where they can receive valuable feedback from peers and faculty members alike. Additionally, the “Black Research Spotlight” shines a light on the groundbreaking work of African Caribbean scholars, providing them with a platform to showcase their research and innovations.
In recognition of the challenges posed by systemic anti-Black racism, the BSI offers its members a membership with the National Center for Faculty Development and Diversity, providing on-demand access to a wealth of professional development resources. This is just one of the ways BSI ensures its scholars are well-equipped to thrive and succeed in their academic careers. As a research institute, BSI is committed to supporting Black Studies and promoting excellence in scholarships. One vital aspect of this is the awarding of grants to Black scholars. These grants are instrumental in advancing research that is often overlooked in traditional funding competitions.
While visiting the University earlier this month, I learned more about some of the challenges that have been faced in opening BSI. The establishment of this initiative was approved by the University of Windsor’s Senate on October 7th, 2022. The initiative is in alignment with the University’s commitment to the Scarborough Charter (utoronto.ca) on anti-Black racism and Black inclusion in Canadian higher education. In 2023, the University of Windsor (UWindsor) announced their new academic home that would spotlight: Black excellence, scholarship, research, and community. The inaugural Black Scholars Institute (BSI) at UWindsor, was formally launched in September 2024.
Dr. Clinton Beckford, UWindsor’s Vice President of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion, envisions that the BSI will be the institutional home for Blackness at the University. “The establishment of a Black Scholars Institute at the University of Windsor is ground-breaking and transformative,” he says. “It positions the University of Windsor as a post-secondary leader in intellectual thought and practice around Blackness and makes real our commitments to Black flourishing and thriving at and beyond the institution.”
The BSI will work closely with UWindsor’s Interdisciplinary and Critical Studies Department within the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences. Building a Black Scholars academic program represents an innovative plan of action intended to meaningfully understand UWindsor’s approach to African-Caribbean ways of knowing in Canadian universities. The expected output will enhance UWindsor’s research profile in Black Studies and feature scholarly work, special events, speakers’ series, mentorship, and more.
Dr. Camisha Sibblis, the Director at BSI, is hopeful that the institute will enrich the experiences of Black faculty at UWindsor. “We believe that the inclusion of Black peoples, ways of learning and knowledge systems are integral to the growth of our community. The establishment of the BSI is a crucial part of fulfilling the University’s Strategic Mandate Agreement (ontario.ca) and purposefully moving the institution into the future. The Institute will enhance the University’s research profile and will also establish the University as a center of excellence in Windsor-Essex and the Detroit area – a region known for its historic importance for Black people in North America.”

Guess who will get to decide what services you have access to. The rule by wealth system will not end itself, we have to organize massive protests and general strikes with a clearly written demand to end it once and for all people.
