What the future may hold for Canadians

Published

on

BY STEVEN KASZAB

Finally getting out of the clutches of this pandemic. Much has changed in these few years since COVID-19 has struck. Three years and several waves later Canada has changed, having been transformed by our response to the pandemic.

The Liberal government is still in power, directing the nation towards an uncertain future.

What has changed?

The Central Government has become more powerful, shouldering the responsibilities demanded of it because of the pandemic. Central purchasing and distribution of medical supplies and vaccines lay in their hands in association with the various Provincial and municipal agencies.

Several vaccines are being used, each with its own strengths and side effects.

The central government has forced the pharmaceutical firms to sell these vaccines at cost. Why? At the beginning of vaccine development into the first-year costs increased drastically. Governments did not share what the costs of these vaccines were. Profiteering from vaccine production and distribution became a problem. Developing plans to ship vaccines to places of low population became excessively expensive. It was only through governmental direction, that distribution was carried out equally and fairly. With the cost of vaccines driven down Canada’s allies, poorer nations of the world can afford these vaccines for their population.

20% of the Canadian population refuse to be vaccinated. Continual communal infections occur and those vaccinated can still become infected with the virus. Several solutions to this problem arise:

Citizenship identity cards are developed. All sorts of information useful to the citizen and government are scribed onto these cards: health/safety information, identity, drivers’ licenses, and travel history.

These cards are mandatory if someone travels to an infected region or is vaccinated and when.

Health care to those non-vaxxers may be denied. Either they are part of the Canadian social contract, or they are not. It is a threat that is never applied, just implied. If education does not work, time in the corner may.

Providers of vaccines and the governmental agencies who contracted them show full transparency and accountability.

It is determined that ALL Canadians need to be vaccinated. Therefore, if citizens do not get vaccinated and it is proven that they infect others, they will be criminally charged and possibly civilly sued also.

The social contract becomes very demanding. At first, all public officials ask for compliance, but after continual anti-social behaviour, even with business lockdowns in many regions, criminal charges and isolation become key in managing non-compliant citizens.

Online learning with some in class teaching becomes the norm. Having a computer at home with online capabilities becomes a human right. Teaching instructors are required to attend a training period to learn the art of online teaching. Ultimately many communities throughout Canada receive this benefit along with others, like clean water availability and local community economic zones. Practical experience along with professional teaching becomes the norm. Teaching period is year-round with extended short holidays throughout the year, nothing longer than two weeks.

The government directs the rail and air transport industry to develop a clean air purification system that traps and isolates viruses and contamination in the air. Rail throughout Canada is directed to expand its operations. Rail is the most environmentally friendly form of mass transport, with clean energy applied (solar/natural gas).

Alberta has suffered in many ways. The Newfoundland oil fields are quiet. The central government decides to build a state-of-the-art refinery for oil, gas, and natural gas in Alberta and in Eastern Canada creating many jobs. Transportation of finished products is developed using new and improved pipelines. Alberta begins to diversify its economy away from the energy sector to manufacturing and resource development along with Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

All senior living centres in Canada become provincially owned. In this manner costs and services as well as emergency responses will never be limited or stunted as they were in the private sector. Revenue will flow in a controlled, well-managed fashion.

Permanent positions will be created and maintained in these centres. An employee can have a career in such places, and not travel from location to location to get their forty hours of work. Governmental development of senior living programs, senior healthcare and mental health programs are created. Many positions for professionals like psychologist, nurses, senior teaching are created.

The Provincial Governments admit many senior centres could have been better maintained. Financial costs to victims of COVID-19 in these homes are distributed to their grieving families. A vow that seniors will never again be ignored is made by many public figures.

A two-tier health system is developing. Citizens are given the opportunity to become involved in a public system such as OHIP, or smaller medical facilities licensed by each province serving private individuals. The private facilities are independent of public funds, entirely dependent upon user fees.

The provincial health systems have been invested upon through public funds. A large portion of the public sector will be invested in revenue creation, through the study, research and development of diseases and their cures.

Pharmaceutical Corporations in Canada have partnered with this sector, sharing their funds and research direction. The Canadian Government has directed each provincial health system, university and research facility to work towards cures for diseases.

Like the US, the national project of getting a man on the moon, Canada will invest its funds in research and development in curing such conditions as dementia, cancer etc. Doctors and nurses in Canada move to become some of the highest paid in North America. With better benefits comes excellence.

Non-person-to-person events have become more popular. Many large venues go out of business. A more personal approach is developed. Smaller controlled events: person to person, online presentations (not costly) develop into an approved method of entertainment. Over time large, controlled events will return. The population has a historic memory that needs time to heal.

Can you say that Canadians united together to fight this pandemic? Many did. They showed the world that they cared for their fellow citizens. The pandemic also introduced us to patience, humility and charity. Imagine lines in Toronto; two to four persons in a store that could hold thirty people. Imagine caring citizens showing respect for our caregivers, our elderly and each other. We are better because of this pandemic. Our imaginations shine with the creativity of the Great North.

Our society continues to transform, changing as we do. These three years have pulled us together while the pandemic has torn other nations apart.

Before we allow more people into the country, shouldn’t we prioritize the well-being of our citizens first?

Greetings esteemed citizens of Canada. I am deeply troubled by a pressing issue that demands our attention. It pertains to our immigration policies and the welfare of our citizens.

I am bewildered by the continued influx of immigrants into our country while we struggle to adequately care for our own citizens. Take, for instance, a drive through Toronto, or a drive through Hamilton—it’s a stark reminder of the dire situation many Canadians face daily. We witness homelessness, lack of access to basic healthcare, and economic hardships plaguing our communities.

Homelessness continues to be an issue in Toronto, with thousands of people experiencing homelessness on any given night. The impacts of it are complex, long lasting, and devastating for many. Homelessness affects some of our community’s most vulnerable residents and contributes to ongoing health inequities.

Toronto is also experiencing a heightened number of non-fatal and fatal opioid overdoses within the overall community, as well as within the shelter system. This is primarily due to the increasing toxicity and unpredictability of the unregulated drug supply. According to the City of Toronto, in 2023, there were 169 calls to Toronto Paramedics from Toronto shelters and respites sites in Q4 of 2023 to respond to non-fatal overdoses. Over 2023, there were a total of 796 non-fatal suspected overdoses at Toronto shelter and respite sites, representing an 11% decrease from 2022.

Higher rates of illness and premature death among the homeless population have been widely recognized, and since January 2024, there have been 28 deaths in homeless shelters. The City says that they are committed to identifying and responding in a timely manner to new and emerging issues in the shelter system.

According to Homeless Statistics in Canada, the estimated number of homeless people ranges from 150,000 to 300,000, with 25,000 to 35,000 individuals homeless on any given night. Let’s take a look at this on a national scale:

Homelessness Statistics for Canadians

  • Between 25,000 and 35,000 people are homeless on any given night in Canada.
  • Toronto has the most homeless people in Canada.
  • 62% of homeless people in Canada are males.
  • 30% of Canadian homeless come from Indigenous communities.
  • 90% of homeless shelters in Canada are in: Ontario, British Columbia, Quebec, and Alberta, and 44% of them are in Ontario alone.
  • 22% of shelters are aimed at young homeless in Canada, while 20% of people experiencing homelessness are 13-24 years old.
  • The annual cost to society is over $7 billion.
  • The Canadian Government is investing $2.2 billion over ten years to expand funding for the homeless.

Yet, for some reason, the Canadian government strongly believes that it is in the best interest of our country to continue to push for higher immigration. Yes, I overstand that immigration is a complex issue with multifaceted implications. Canada has long prided itself on its tradition of welcoming immigrants, which enriches our cultural fabric and contributes to our economic growth. The only caveat is we as Canadians need to truly understand how this is affecting us as a whole.

According to Statista, annual immigration in Canada amounts to almost 500,000 new immigrants – one of the highest rates per population of any country in the world. As of 2023, there were more than eight million immigrants with permanent residence living in Canada – roughly 20% of the total Canadian population. In a press release titled “Canada welcomes historic number of newcomers in 2022,” it is proudly written that Canada has experienced one of the fastest recoveries from the pandemic, thanks in large part to our approach to immigration.

In the press release, they state that they plan to welcome a historic number of newcomers, and IRCC has: added resources, embraced new technology, streamlined processing, and brought more processes online. They claim that these changes are all important improvements to Canada’s immigration system, which will position them well for the future. They also state that their focus is on addressing the acute labour market shortages we are facing today and building a strong economy into the future, and one thing remains certain: “Immigration is a key part of the solution.”

“Today marks an important milestone for Canada, setting a new record for newcomers welcomed in a single year. It is a testament to the strength and resilience of our country and its people. Newcomers play an essential role in filling labour shortages, bringing new perspectives and talents to our communities, and enriching our society as a whole. I am excited to see what the future holds and look forward to another historic year in 2023 as we continue to welcome newcomers,” shared Sean Fraser, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship

I received an email from Maxime Bernier (PPC Leader), and in this email, he shared with me his thoughts. “I started talking about the perils of mass immigration years ago. The whole political and media establishment denounced me, smeared me, said I was a racist, a xenophobe, anti-Canadian. I kept telling the truth, because I care more about the future of our nation than about what these corrupt elites think of me.”

“More and more people now realize that I was right. Simone Jennifer, we need to make mass immigration the ballot box question at the coming election. When the Liberals took power in 2015, Canada’s population was only 35 million. How can we possibly integrate into our society, our economy, our housing market, our culture, the equivalent of Nova Scotia’s, or Saskatchewan’s population every few months? It’s a planned invasion. It’s a total disaster in the making.”

I understand the importance of immigration, especially because my parents are also immigrants, but before we allow more people into the country, shouldn’t we prioritize the well-being of our citizens first? How can we justify bringing more people into the country when we’re struggling to provide essential services and support to those already here?

I urge the government to reevaluate its immigration policies and ensure that they align with the needs of our citizens. We must prioritize the well-being of Canadians and work towards building a more inclusive and prosperous society for all.

Ontario launches One Fare Program to increase accessibility and affordability of public transportation

Published

on

BY PAUL JUNOR

“We’re working with the provincial and local transit partners towards integrating transit fares across systems, making transit more affordable, and convenient as we take action to build the region’s network for the future.” (Metrolink)

Transit riders across the GTA will save $1,600 as they utilize multiple transit agencies at no extra charge. The program started on February 26th, 2024, and it allows transit riders transfer for free to commute between the TTC and other Transit agencies in the GTA, including GO Transit. All commuters need is to tap their PRESTO: card, credit, or debit in Google wallet to save money with the Ontario One Fare Program.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford states, “Our government is on a mission to keep costs down for the hardworking people of Ontario. One Fare will eliminate double fees and put $1,600 back in the pockets of transit riders. Alongside the hundreds of dollars, we’re saving for drivers by cutting the gas tax, scrapping road tolls, and eliminating the license plate sticker fee, we’re providing commuters with real tangible relief.”

The Ontario government has invested $70.5 billion in public transit that is intended to significantly improve the overall services. It is anticipated that there will be more than eight million new riders as they traverse different public transit systems. Commuters will be able to travel between: GO Transit, TTC, Brampton Transit, Durham Region Transit, MiWay, and York Region Transit.

Vijay Thanigasalam (Associate Minister of Transportation) states, “At a time when many families feel like they’re struggling to get ahead, our government is making public transit simpler, more convenient, and more affordable. Under the leadership of Premier Ford, we will continue to make historic investments in public transit and put money back in commuters’ pockets, where it belongs.”

It was in 2022 when it was announced that plans were underway between GO Transit and several transit agencies in the Golden Horseshoe Area. “The government will continue to work with municipal partners to identify opportunities to make transit more seamless for riders by harmonizing discounted fares and other measures.”

Overall, there will be an investment of $70.5 billion by the Ontario government in public transit that will go a long way in increasing affordability and accessibility of different transit systems in the GTA and Golden Horseshoe areas. The project will also involve: the Scarborough Subway Extension, the Eglinton Crosstown West Extension and the Yonge North Subway Extension, which is the largest development of any subway system in all of Canada. When completed, there will be a two-way, all-day GO train service every 15 minutes that will connect key areas in the Golden Horseshoe. It is projected to be completed by 2031.

Olivia Chow, Mayor of Toronto is totally supportive and pleased with the unveiling of the One Fare Program. She states, “Public transit should be a convenient and affordable option for getting to work, school, or running errands. Ontario’s One Fare will make it easier and cheaper to transfer between the: TTC, GO Transit, and other transit agencies. When governments continue to work together, we can make life more affordable and invest in public services families rely on, like high quality public transit that costs you less.”

Your silence on crimes against humanity automatically makes you an accomplice

BY MICHAEL THOMAS

“Many people wonder: who is responsible for the process of self-destruction of human society? Today, to some extent, the responsibility falls on everyone. On some more than others, but on everyone. Why? Because people are silently accepting the current changes, which are literally crimes against humanity.”

The above is a quote from Elijah plus the Patriarch of the Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate Methodius OSBMr + Timothy OSBMr and the Secretary Bishops. Now let us examine why this quote was made using present-day society as the barometer.

A good example of this nonsense here in Canada is children having the right to choose their gender while parents are being threatened with jail time if they intervene. It’s these so-called hate speech laws, and so-called laws to keep independent thinkers from accessing worldwide news and posting it on their social media platforms.

“Parliament gets presented with an unintelligible text, which is impossible to decode. Besides, the MPs usually pass multiple laws at the same time; hence they have no possibility and time to find out what they are supposed to pass altogether,” said the Patriarch of the Byzantine Catholic Patriarchate.

Here are some of the crimes (that these so-called laws that are drafted and eventually passed) are designed to hide.

Feminization, the breakdown of family, gender ideology, and stealing children from their mothers are promoted under the term “domestic violence protection.” Make sure there are no fathers in the homes, or even if there are, he is muted, or scared of having his authority labelled as toxic masculinity.

In Norway, 70-100 stolen children commit suicide every year and the information about it is marked as confidential. In some cases, foster family is a business where children are being passed around until they are mentally bankrupt, oppressed, and eventually killed. Based on the financial status of the so-called foster parents, these cases never make the news.

We are seeing anti-discriminatory laws included in the legislation allowing mass discrimination of the majority. Systematic demoralization of children from the time they attend kindergarten is covered by the term sexual education.

“Children are robbed of their own identity by pounding in their minds that they are neither a girl, nor a boy. Consequently, they undergo hormonal therapy with a catastrophic prospect of gender-altering surgery. The society is silent about it and therefore has a shared accountability for all these crimes,” shared the Byzantine Bishops.

Some of these schools have hundreds of students. My questions are, why don’t these parents join hands and say enough is enough, instead of just one or two? Canadians, have we become a society of parents who are continually failing our children? When are we going to wake up?

Here are some of the trials our babies face daily. “Even before the child is born, mothers are forced to have it killed. Almost every mother is intimidated by having a child with so-called Down Syndrome. In reality, this is a mental terror based on lies,” said Byzantine Bishops. “As soon as the children are born, they are administered vaccines, which cause: autism, loss of immunity, loss of fertility, autoimmune diseases, cancer, etc.”

Again, where are the collective voices of our men and women saying hell no to all this? There is an enormous amount of the money that pediatricians make from the vaccines they force on these innocent children. These child doctors know full well the side effects of such vaccines, but instead, they are focused on their next: Porsche, cottage, and furnishing their high-society wives and husbands with all the luxury items, while they poison our children, and what do we do? NOTHING.

The average North American child doctor has 1,500 patients; if he or she gets most of them to take all the child vaccines, he or she is rewarded with at least $360.000. That’s way more than their annual salary. This should explain the push to vaccinate your babies at all costs. This information can be found in the BlueCross/BlueShield Doctor Incentive Booklet. Every child that gets the 24 vaccines is worth a $400 payout to that doctor.

The abuse of medicine has now become the new normal. This happens under the cover of The World Health Organization (WHO); projects are being imposed on states to reduce human population.  “We can expect the declaration of the next pseudo-pandemic followed by experimental vaccination. This not only poses a mortal danger to human life but also carries the threat of concealed chipping,” said Byzantine Bishops.

From Smartphone addiction (aka making our children braindead), the digitization of everything (aka spying on us), intervention in our food supply (aka poisoning us with GMOs), to the falsification of science for satanic agendas (aka the safe and effective COVID brew), there is no hiding place from this war that is unleashed on world citizens by corporations and so-called governments.

The big question is, are we going to give up or fight? Canadians, choose as if your life depended on it, because it does.
