Canada is one rung below Australia. I live here ( BC) and sadly the general population loves this. Im with Ed here. Vaccinated but refuse to patron any place that requires my med papers. My vaxed husband already tearing strips off anyone who asks ( ie private clubs) for his medical info to keep “on file”.

Who knew that all your rights were null and void as soon as the government declared a health emergency. That's why you should always read the small print. Was it even in small print or did they just make it up?

LOL, I love cats. Humour aside, our federal government appears to be beholden to others (hint, NOT Canadian citizens). I find it astounding that the same people who pontificated and preached, "My body, my choice," are gleefully throwing those of us who are abstaining from the injections, under the proverbial bus. Our PM campaigned with the message that the unvaxxed are putting "your" children at risk. How dare they, he pontificated from his pulpit (whilst wearing a college varsity jacket, in case some of us realized his cool factor was past its best before date). We are clearly living in a dangerous world (cue music). As my fellow Canucks appear to be largely asleep at the switch, I will hypothesize it is due to their naive trust in government. It is something to do with our lack of proximity to war and strife. The Europeans appear more in tune with the world-view that the government is not always/often/ever here "to help."

In Ontario, we are now second class. I don't need to go to a gym, eat at a restaurant, or go to a Blue Jays game (they traded away my favourites a few years ago). But, I fear if more do not speak up, there will be more restrictions. And come January, I might be out of a job and my daughter will be restricted with her practicum. My daughter works part-time at a business supply store. She spent two shifts copying vaccine receipts and laminating them. There was a line-up.

We are those people who wash our mayonnaise jars before we recycle and apologize to ugly spiders we must squash. I also accidentally tore a "do not remove this tag" from a blanket yesterday, and momentarily panicked. Yet here we are.

The Left redefines every word eventually, and "human rights" is presently being redefined to mean "things that favor the common good" (as they understand it).... it has absolutely nothing to do, in their mind, with any sort of individual right to dissent from the state or majority. That ACLU "actually forced injections are pro-liberty" editorial is a perfect example of this.

Hi Gato and Gato pals,

My country of Lithuania is - sadly - even more strict than this right now. I made a video (link at bottom) showing the sad reality.

Lithuania is the first European country to have a fully-encforced Covid Pass regime across all of society. Other countries are fast imposing their own regimes, though, so they will catch up soon - within 2-6 weeks in many EU countries - if it's not stopped *immediately*.

I've left two messages here on this Gato substack about it; from that, many people here have read an article I wrote about Lithuania's Covid Pass regime. Lots of you have mailed me or messaged me here with support. Thanks!

I now made a quick video of just over a minute which shows life here, where you have to scan your Covid Pass at the entrance of every shopping center, mall, big store, restaurant, and pretty much every other public place.

Please take a look; I think you'll find it eye-opening to see the future that faces other countries which continue down the path of the Covid Pass, like Ontario.... and the US, the UK, and Europe.

I also made a Twitter thread. Sadly, it was blocked after a few hours. But it was archived on a thread unroll before it was blocked.

The video, thread, and article have now been shared many times.

If you find the video, thread, or any of the tweets valuable, please share: quote tweet it, retweet, follow me, send the link to people, etc.

Feel free to link to the information here or use it in any way you want. I don't care about credit or recognition; I just want to spread the information.

Thanks for your help!

Politician quotes:

Many people who somehow managed to read the thread (it was online a few hours before it was banned) have written that the quotes from Lithuanian politicians are both chilling and foreshadow what they fear in their own countries. These tweets are still visible (I hope!):

I live in this pseudo-socialist banana republic and have spent significant amounts of time in both the US and Canada. Did my post secondary education and a significant number of years working/living in US prior to returning to Canada. We are quite similar but different on many frontS. 1. The US fought for their freedom, Canada’s was granted by its colonists. 2. US have the most wonderful document ever created next to the Bible, called the US Constitution and Canada have The Canadian Charter of Rights & Freedoms or as my employment lawyer refers to it, “The Canadian Charter of Rights & Wrongs” 3. US have the 2nd Ammendment and Canada do not (current gov looking to round up many types of firearms deemed illegal while murder rates in cities skyrocket). 4. We have more of a collectivist & government reliant culture while US champions individual rights and freedoms. 5. US government has 3 defined branches of government with significant checks and balances while Canada is a parliamentary system. There are many other factors not the least of which is a corporate and state media complex that has been bailed out multiple times and are essentially government stenographers. Canada was once the most respected Country in the world when governed by Stephen Harper’s Conservative party. Harper was the antithesis of Prime Minister Blackface. A policy wonk and economist who led a conservative populist party born in Alberta essentially took over the Conservative party although it wasn’t presented that way to save face for conservatives. Harper was a serious leader and his leadership and commitment to less government red tape while unshackling entrepreneurs. In short, he was smart, professional, had strong foreign policy which means he understood Canada’s limitations on the world stage but also let his peers know Canada were not pushovers. Contrast this with our current dullard leader who was a trust fund kid, snowboard instructor, and substitute drama teacher and it is not hard to understand why Canada are at the bottom of every economic/ productivity category from OECD. We are the most heavily indebted nation in G7 when totalling all debt (fed/prov/Corp/personal)/GDP and on the verge of a recession after -1.3% contraction last qtr. and also experiencing a ramp in inflation & a way overheated housing market. We are ripe for the picking right now - A proletariat that is reliant on government handouts and even worse quite trusting of government. Sprinkle on extreme levels of fear and propaganda that bordered on stuff from a B horror movie and continued government handouts and you have a nation of zombies. There is a growing group of folks who got their shots because they were told their lives would get back to normal. Well now many of these folks understand that our lords pulled the rug out from under them, they are spitting mad. Many are withdrawing their discretionary dollars from the service economy to stand with their unvaxxed citizens. Going to be a really tough winter. I work in wealth management and my employer may put those of us unvaxxed on unpaid leave which is the strategy of choice by large employers. Not waiting for big brother to tell me what my future is. Looking at a few options. Also starting to think about how a parallel economy might start and how I would participate. We all need to think one move ahead of our rulers. I fully expect hospitals/clinics to refuse care to unvaxxed so I am hoping fired nurses and Mds offer healthcare services. Alas, Canada is on its way to a failed state. Feds here are all about WEF/UN initiatives and are doing whatever they can to strip away what little culture we have. They are handing us over to the WEF ghouls. I am afraid for my children’s future

"CDC struggles to expand pandemic response team as morale plummets" https://www.politico.com/news/2021/09/24/burnout-fatigue-cdc-pandemic-response-514067

A CDC whistleblower could really shake things up.

I couldn't stop myself from laughing out loud. It's so absurd, you just have to laugh. What has become of the West?

I don't know which HR dog is being so naughty. But peeing on human rights in places where they should be sacred political principles is the end of human rights (although it does render the Handmaid's Tale show hilarious given its designation of Canada as the last outpost of liberalism, when is reality it is Florida).

Every tinpot dictator is being given carte blanche to be as bad as they like because of this sort of thing. They will simply declare a “public health emergency” and then the sky is the limit … How can these organizations be so stunningly short sited. Now when the Taliban or the Saudi's stone women to death for accusations of adultery, they will just shrug and say … it protects the public health, HIV/AIDS is still a genuine concern and stoning adulterers discourages unsafe sex practices.

Ahh, sort of like how the ACLU says "far from compromising civil liberties, vaccine mandates actually further civil liberties"

I've fine-tuned my argument to the supporters of vax mandates:

me: "OK, so you believe society is better off with everyone vaccinated. You believe this so strongly that you think the unvaxxed should be punished in some way or have their freedoms restricted. Where do you draw the line? Is your belief that the threat to society is so great by unvaxxed that they deserve to lose their livelihood, and possibly the ability to feed their families?"

I haven't changed anyone's mind yet, alas, but my prayer is that they leave the conversation thinking more about where they actually WILL draw a line.

If you live under a government that's formed an entity to regulate your human rights, you don't really have those rights.

lets state tenworst case scenario. intentional or not.. this vacc will protect the ones that keep getting it and will eventually kill off the unvaxxed. why am i saying worst case? due to philosophical. spiritual reasons.. as the culture war rages this would lead to a default victory on another dimension.

i dont think theres a way to know what is best for you.. other than optimizing your lifestyle as much as possible.. which is very christianlike.

zerocarb or at least a reduction diet. extended fasting. sunlight\natural light. movement. cold therapy. and nonviolent communication to keep intimacies functional during this war

We are long past the time where we simply need to exterminate the unclean. No vax = no life. You willfully carry a deadly disease therefore you deserve to die. No excuses! Take the very safe vax, wear your mask, or you and your children die. Period!!! I’m over it!!!!
