Ronald Reagan once quipped, “The nine most terrifying words in the English language are: I’m from the government, and I’m here to help.” As a man who valued personal liberty over government interference in our lives, Reagan’s joke is funny because it’s true. There has not been a more revealing period in modern history that exposes the utter ineptitude of the monstrous, bureaucratic government, that seeks to rule over every facet of our lives, and their absolute disregard for the well-being of those they govern.
Justin Trudeau is easily the worst leader in Canadian history and it’s hard to determine if it’s just sheer incompetence that defines him, or an evil lust for power. His inexplicable handling, rather bungling, of the Covid19 pandemic has destroyed the lives and livelihoods of millions of Canadians. He and his government have spread fear and panic across a nation and used lockdowns to destroy the Canadian economy; and most of the destruction has yet to be felt. He has burdened future generations with his blunders.
Some may feel this criticism is too harsh; that Trudeau was just trying to protect the citizens under his charge. Only someone incredibly naive or ill-informed could believe this. Over and over Trudeau said he was following the “science”; the favourite slogan of those who neither understand science, nor care about what it actually is. Let’s be clear: those that “followed the science” during this pandemic were wrong at every turn and used the word “science” to silence dissent against their arcane decisions. Dr. Anthony Fauci in the US was so wrong that I think he should be criminally charged for negligence and dereliction of duty. We can’t have men cause so much harm and go unpunished. Our leaders should have followed the math: the numbers that revealed the true state of the emergency and the exaggerated response to a virus that really isn’t that deadly at all.
Let’s look at the official 2020 Canadian statistics regarding Covid19: click here for the data. What do they reveal? Here are the highlights:
Canadian population: 37,742,154
Total Covid deaths: 19,328
LTC covid deaths: 15,849
Gen. Pop. covid deaths: 3,479
The most revealing stat of all: out of a population of over 37 million people, 3,479 people died of Covid19 who were not in long-term care facilities. We knew from the beginning that the elderly (over 80) were the most vulnerable to this virus. Yes, every death is tragic and a painful loss for someone. But only 3,479 people (outside of long-term care facilities) died from a virus that has been portrayed by the government and the media as the modern day Black Death. Our government officials shut down the entire Canadian economy, destroyed businesses, caused massive unemployment, ruined industries, depleted billions in individual savings, and ballooned the national debt, for a disease with a death rate amongst a non-LTC population of 0.00922%. This is so infinitesimally small that it’s hard to understand how these governmental decisions could be viewed as anything other than diabolical; as decisions meant to harm most of us. The end result of all this will be more reliance on government resources by a greater number of people and a greater dependence on their “benevolence” for our well-being. The Chinese Virus has made government more powerful, more necessary for many, and an evermore presence in our lives.
Governments are the enemy of freedom and liberty, by definition. What they have perpetuated on their citizenries through their response to Covid19 is nothing short of evil; and that’s being kind. We should have protected the elderly and vulnerable amongst us and let the young and healthy go to work, go to school, run their businesses, and live their lives as normal. Our leaders lied to us about the spread of the virus, about the deadliness of the virus, and are now foisting upon us an untested vaccine as the only way to return to normal. It can’t be any more clear how much they hate us, how much they hate the greatness of Western civilization, and despise the thought of personal liberty and freedom.
