Easy on the xmas spirit...
It’s not even December, and here we are again being bombarded by everything Christmas. Gaudy decorations, obnoxious music, ridiculous costumes, it’s too much! Every business, every store in this city is doing their best to cram Christmas down our throats in the hopes that they’ll be able to fleece us of our hard-earned money. Make no mistake, all Christmas is, is a chance for greedy corporations to line their pockets at our expense! Happy birthday Jesus indeed!

Bill C-13 a travesty
Bill C-13 is being used to increase the powers of the police and federal spying agencies to spy on Canadians without a warrant. Read that again: Without a warrant. Basically, this means that any information that they want on you, they can ask for, without judicial oversight, even about people who have done nothing wrong and who intend to do nothing wrong.
People who have information collected on them for no good reason could have this information leaked to other authorities who also have no business having it. Things like this have already happened to Canadians traveling to the US and who are denied entry for information that never should have been in police files in the first place, like a history of depression. Ask yourself, what information about you, even if you’ve never done something illegal, could damage your life and that of your family if leaked to the press or the general public? And you wouldn’t even be able to sue the government or the provider of this information for collecting or sharing that information under this bill. And you wouldn’t know that you’d been spied upon until it causes you a problem that you have no legal recourse to fix.
C-13 is hugely unpopular: 73 per cent of Canadians oppose Bill C-13 [according to a Forum Research poll this past June], with just 15 per cent approving. There is huge opposition among all regions, age groups, genders, and income levels. Conservatives oppose Bill C-13 by 62 per cent to 24 per cent. Why did this bill pass? Ask yourself and ask your MP.

Flu shot poisonus for some
I found it very interesting about the inability of doctors to diagnose Lyme disease because I had a similar experience from a shot of H1N1 flue vaccine two years ago. From almost the first minutes of getting the shot I became sick and got sicker and sicker every day until three months later I was lying on a gurney in St. Paul’s Emergency at death’s door. Not one doctor or anybody else there would admit that the shot had harmed me. They looked for every other explanation and just gave up and gave me intravenous fluids and stopped my vomiting and sent me home. Fortunately I went to a Sho Tai practitioner who told me in 15 minutes what had happened: the sudden injection into my blood stream of the toxins in the shot had gone straight to my liver and kidneys and had poisoned them nearly to their complete failure. No doctor seemed to figure this out. I went on a regime of a couple of herbs and lots of probiotics and I slowly began to improve. Today my liver and kidneys are healed but I have other side effects from the terrible damage done by the toxins. I know of one person who died of the flu shot and I wonder if others of your readers may also have suffered from getting a flu shot?
