I said I wasn’t going to be pulling punches anymore. Well here goes. Canadians are undergoing what amounts to a Psychological Operation right now, or colloquially a “Psy-Op”. The decision that Christmas gathering will be outlawed by unconstitutional decrees has already been made, that is opinion and it is an

Canadian Soapbox: Pandemic??? Really??? All cause mortality in Ontario drops during first 6 months of Covid as per StatsCan –
This mostly benign virus is why people are having their lives destroyed by government overreach, why 10,000 more children are dying every single month due to srarvation according to the UN. Why the abused have been forced by unconstitional dictates to shelter in place with their abusers. Governments lie, we
Continue readingCanadian Soapbox: Large Danish trial could put an end to the masking debate…
A large randomized control trial could finally put an end to the whole masking debate. Three Danish hospitals as well as the Technical University of Denmark have conducted what may very well be the largest ever clinical trial looking into the efficacy of community masking on reducing rates of viral

Regular readers of this pathetic and miserable little blog, (yes all three of you) know that I like to keep it between the lines so to speak. I like to stick with reliable and respected media, academic and government sources. Of course the opinions expressed are my own, but the

This is one strange, strange pandemic, if it wasn’t for the news media I wouldn’t even know it existed. Many have come to the view that we’re living in something of a dystopian nightmare. We’re told there’s this horrible deadly virus floating around, but people I talk to don’t know
Continue readingCanadian Soapbox: Trudeau government drops the Covid-19 ball again, failing to warn of possible airborne transmission
With both the U.S. CDC and World Health Orginization warning that SARS-Cov-2 may be transmitted by airborne aerosols, Canada is once again a day late and a dollar short with our response. Do note that there is no definitive proof that SARS-Cov-2, the virus that causes the Covid-19 disease, is
Continue readingCanadian Soapbox: The best science says masks have no benefit in limiting viral infection – Why are they mandated?
I’ve already shared this infomation in previous blog posts, that Randomized Control Trials are the so called “gold standard” when it comes to science. Science is a process, it’s not about right or wrong. Science usually evolves, but with Covid science is going in the other direction, it’s devolving. The

Please hear me out, it is my most fervent wish and prayer that everyone comes out of this pandemic with as little harm as possible. SARS-Cov-2 can be a deadly virus, but it is not an equal oppotunity killer. Younger and healthy people overwhelmingly recover, google Infection Fatality Rates published
Continue readingCanadian Soapbox: With proven dangers to prolonged wearing of cloth masks, what is a parent to do?
I am well aware that for some people the science on masks is over, they’ve heard what they want to hear, that masks may provide some utility in mitigating viral spread, and that’s that…..the book is closed. True students of science of course know that science is a process, and
Continue readingCanadian Soapbox: Another Ontario lockdown won’t work. Too many people are well informed now.
There is increasing talk of lockdowns in Ontario, if not province wide then in specific hotspot areas like Peel Region. Well folks time for a reality check, further lockdowns won’t work. I am aware of polling that suggests there is broad based support for a return to more stringent emergency
Continue readingCanadian Soapbox: CDC Update – Just 6% of Covid deaths attributed solely to the virus
After months of government, media and health officials trying to present Covid-19 as a disease that is equally serious for all members of society, we’re finally getting some clarity. Early on in the pandemic, with news coming out of Italy that Covid-19 was overwhelmingly targetting the old and sick, young

I prefer imperical fact to speculation, that is just the way I am. Note though that I say “prefer”, often times there is an absence of imperical facts, and all one has left is specualtion. There are some who genuinely believe that the Covid-19 pandemic is a hoax, that is

Bias declared right up front. I have a soon to be 7 year old who will be returning to school soon, a daughter entering grade eleven, and a son going into his fourth year of universtiy. I also have two siblings, one a secondary school teacher the other a high

Those who follow the data and the science have known since March that Covid-19 is exponentially more serious and potentially lethal for those who are older with comorbities than it is for those who are younger and healthy. Public Health Ontario published Infection Fatality Rates broken down by age, I

I know for a lot of people the debate over masking is over: “Its been proven scientifically that masks help limit viral spread” they’ll say. Often it’s because they read a headline somewhere that says masks can be an effective tool. Of course science is always evolving, research goes on

Emergency measures have impacted just about everyone, people are having to deal with stresses they never before contemplated. With that being said it has certainly been worse for some, far worse than for others. While everyone has felt the impact of physical distancing, (I now refuse to call it social

When Sweden opted to avoid stringent emergency measures many were shocked and surprised. The Swede’s didn’t take a completely laissez faire approach, but compared to countries like Canada it sure seemed that way. Gatherings of more than 50 people were banned, bars and restaurants remained open but patrons had to

Eighteen of Canada’s leading medical authorites recently signed an open letter to Canada’s political leadership, both at the national and provincial levels. Among the eighteen is Dr. David Butler-Jones, Canada’s first Chief Public Health Officer, someone with an actual medical degree. There is a letter portion and also a statement.

As of Friday July 17th many parts of Ontario moved into Phase 3 of re-opening. Geographically it is most of the province, however with the GTA as well as the Windsor and Niagara Regions not included most of the provinces population is still in Phase 2. All I can say

Before I get rolling with this post I want to provide some persepctive. Putting a situation in its proper context is not covering up the truth, it is the truth. These are the top 10 causes of death as per Statistics Canada for the year 2018, the most recent year
