Hi! I’m one of the Canadians who won’t sit still for this, never locked down, never got vaccinated. And never will and never gave I been so disappointed with my fellow Canadians as throughout this scamdemic. At first I thought, oh this will never fly!! And to my amazement it did fly! People are so short sighted. No memories at all. No guts either. Aside from the truckers who finally stepped up. And were slapped down and punished along with their supporters and money illegally stolen from the illegally frozen accounts. And still no great cries to correct this, apparently as a people we are good with having our bank accounts arbitrarily frozen and stolen. I don’t know what to tell you now. It’s such a disappointment to learn that as a country we are not brave nor free either. Good luck to you hon!

My mom was born in BC. Married my US born dad. Lives in California, almost as bad as Canada.

I tell her Canada changed, she’s 92.

Your story is shocking and so disgusting.

I read that it was UN/ NATO military that stomped on the peaceful protesters.

That Trudue already sold out Canada’s sovereignty to WEF.

It’s appalling that most courts are so corrupted. Here in US too. Look at our 1/6 prisoners, tortured and held for the crimes Nancy and her murdering thugs did.

Lord help us

I’m sorry about your grandparents, it’s all so tragic.

I'm glad my grandparents had the good sense to cross that land border in the 1910s or 20s as illegal aliens, so my Dad (and I) could be born free in the U. S. of A. Not nearly as free now as then, of course, but compared to Canada, still a huge benefit.

Great piece, John, and best wishes for both of your grandparents. In the post-democratic era, the family is the revolutionary cell that the regime fears the most. Family cohesion is acceptable within the elite and favoured subaltern groups, unacceptable in the general population where unapproved loyalties are troublesome by definition. As the regime radicalises, we can expect the biopolitics to become more aggressive.

Some Europeans placed a lot of stock in freedom, as you note. Others not at all. The freedoms available in the modern era were made possible by the ability of elites to rely on a range of mechanisms to maintain a reliable degree of subordination in place of feudal law or chattel slavery. Unacknowledged servitude is the gold standard of tyranny and we are all living with it.

Turning the population into de facto laboratory mice (or rats) without their informed consent is a sly acknowledgement of the wider political reality that elites long ago made social experimentation a central and defining feature of technocratic government.

The utility of medical expertise as a rationale for restricting established freedoms has allowed regimes across the world to do whatever they like, while simultaneously relying on the accumulated cultural and ethical capital of the medical profession.

We are a long way from seeing that exhausted. For governments that are haemorrhaging trust, this is a very attractive option indeed.

Even if the vaccines failed therapeutically, the forced vaccinations themselves and the stigmatisation of vaccine hesitancy provided a reliable means of testing for compliance, thereby identifying the troublemakers and reinforcing obedience amongst the rest. Governments could hardly ask for more

Like the proverbial frog in a pot of water. The water is almost at the boiling point and we, who know the truth, have been shouting to the other frogs to get out long ago, but instead they're dragging us back into the boiling water. It's all so insane. Next step, COVID camps. Over my dead body, of course. I'm grateful that most of my family, even the few who are jabbed, are aware of the lies. The question is...who will stand up when they start dragging us away???

Damn man, I am very sorry to hear about the family issues. I hope it all works out for you and yours.

Reminds of that old joke about “we’ve already determined what you are, now we’re just haggling over the price.

Reads like the injection goes straight to brains and converts them to mush. You are in a bad spot... Sorry.

I'm sorry you are having to deal with this. I can't reflect too much on Justin Trudeau, he is an unthinkable human. I can think of a couple longer term solutions, but nothing for the immediate tragedy you face.

1. US legislation to streamline/prioritize the immigration applications of freebloods facing political persecution.

2. An dating website/application for freebloods with an emphasis on 1/2 of the match being a U.S. citizen.

This will only be effective if we can prevent America from descending into tyranny as well, but an influx of freebloods would help with that as well.

As a Quebec expat living in Nova Scotia, I'm not surprised at the mentality of the provincial bureaucrats in Quebec City. The federal government is a sorry excuse for a national government, having gone from bribing the provinces to acting like authoritarians in the few jurisdictions that matter to ordinary folks. I cannot leave Canada legally, which is something I never imagined would happen.

A strong motivator for me to come back to the US from NZ was to see my grandparents. I'd have chosen to stay in NZ as well if I'd been forced to be shot up to travel.

As it was, I resigned myself to stay in the US for precisely that reason once I came back. Things are too unpredictable now. Even though, unlike Canada, NZ has removed the mandate for permanent residents to be jabbed to get back into the country, they've demonstrated they are too capricious to be trusted about it.

Being from Australia I understand what you are going through. I know how it feels to be a prisoner in your own country and I’m sorry you can’t see your family. I was separated from my partner for 2 years and 4 months he finally was able to fly here when our country opened. I still can’t visit him in the USA because of the policy there. The world has gone mad. I never thought I would see this tyranny in western countries in my lifetime. I can at least travel out now to places that don’t require vaccination. But it is an illusion of freedom only. I fantasise about fleeing to live in Mexico because I just cannot fathom living in a country that was willing to remove freedom from its people. I can only imagine the heartbreak and anger of people still trapped in Canada (and that of those like yourself who are effectively trapped outside it). So sorry for what has happened to us all. The division of people across the world is something that will not be easily fixed.

"This is the moral equivalent of saying that it isn't rape if you beat a woman until she 'consents' to sex, and that furthermore, the beating is not assault, because the woman can make it stop whenever she likes if she simply 'consents' to the sex that the beating is intended to get her to consent to.

Maybe that strikes you as hyperbolic."

No. That's an perfect analogy, and you are exactly on target.
