Nightmare in the North

Foreword

This is a special edition of Frederick R. Smith Speaks that covers horrors from up north. A close associate, who lives in Canada, provided your author with an astonishing compendium of news. Prepare yourself for the “Nightmare in the North.”

The major focus of this paper, Covid-19, concerns a real pandemic and sympathy goes out to those who lost loved ones. Just as tragic are those lost because of the lockdowns and not included in the hyperbole. The word “Plandemic” refers to the debased elite (Illuminati) and the debased woke puppets at the end of their strings. Both enjoy the power trip to use Corona-doom (created mostly by manipulation of data) to control the world’s population.

Background

The name of the country “Dominion of Canada” derives from Psalm 72:8. “He shall have dominion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth.” The Canadian Constitution directly references the supremacy of God as the foundation of law. Sadly, such as in the United States, and virtually the rest of the world, the law of the land takes a back seat. The United States Constitution is robust as well but that does not prevent our politicians from ignoring it. The same goes for common people who no longer respect the freedom of speech by engaging in the Caustic Cancel Culture Pogrom (CCCP). Particularly shameful are the big businesses with debased-woke directors and managers who do the dirty work for the crummy-woke-commie politicians.

The Canadian Constitution also assures its citizen’s freedoms, but the Plandemic lockdown overlords ignore these rights. Under the guise of Corona-doom, and as detailed below, the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, Section 2 and Section 6 take a direct hit:

Section 2. Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms: 

(a) freedom of conscience and religion;

(b) freedom of thought, belief, opinion and expression, including freedom of the press and other media of communication;

(c) freedom of peaceful assembly; and

(d) freedom of association.

Section 6. Every citizen of Canada has the right to enter, remain in and leave Canada.

The Laundry List

With so many Corona-doom news bytes from our northern correspondent, it seems impossible that other insane things occur. But alas, even more, unearthly things seem to occur in concert with Corona-doom. The news abounds every day and this is just a shortlist. Get ready for a bumpy ride and enjoy(?) your author’s summary of the following news items.  

Covid Camps

The “covid camps” (hotels under government order) are quite wild. Officials remove locks from the doors and multiple sexual assaults have occurred. There are also cases of people deprived of food for days and blocked access from the outside world. The quarters are moldy and unsanitary. The kicker is the fact that everyone must pay $2,000 for this “privilege.” 

It is getting so bad that the opposition in Parliament is calling for a suspension of the camps. The original request for proposal states internment can be needed for “other federal requirements” besides Covid. Travelers coming into Canada go into mandatory hotel quarantines as part of measures designed to keep Canadians at home as the government grows “increasingly concerned” about the risk of new Covid variants. Canadians are subject to quarantine even after testing negative and/or already receiving the vaccine. There are Canadian workers receiving vaccines in the states (due to poor implementation in Canada), specifically Florida, and when they return to Canada, they are still subject to the camps. The vaccines are working just dandy!

Church Closed and Caged

On April 8, 2021, health (cough, cough) officials in Alberta, Canada, decided to “physically close” a local church building. To reopen, the church leaders must agree to finally follow Corona-doom regulations. Police vehicles blocked entrances to the parking lot of GraceLife Church in Edmonton and officials erected fencing around the building. The congregation has met normally since summer 2020, despite requirements that church gatherings limit capacity, require masks, and practice social distancing. Law enforcement arrested its pastor who spent a month in jail refusing the conditions of bail (agree to follow health regulations).

The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms that represent GraceLife elders, and the pastor James Coates, said this action prevents citizens from “exercising their Charter freedoms of peaceful assembly, association, and worship.” The church leaders wrote: “We believe love for our neighbor demands that we exercise our civil liberties. We do not see our actions as perpetuating the longevity of Covid-19 or any other virus that will inevitably come along. If anything, we see our actions as contributing to its end—the end of destructive lockdowns and the end of the attempt to institutionalize the debilitating fear of viral infections.” The congregation continues to meet at a secret location for fear of reprisal from authorities.

Covid Overlords Cancel Healthcare

Throughout the Plandemic, hospital “Covid-19 protocols” resulted in the cancellation of many surgeries. One example, from the first stages of the Corona-doom, included the cancellation of a British Columbia man’s surgery. As a result, he died and therefore this simply amounts to murder by bureaucracy. Chris Walcroft, a 50-year-old father of two, passed on April 15, 2020, after the cancellation of surgery, to prepare his kidney for dialysis. According to his wife, the surgery would have given him access to life-saving treatment. The hospital refused to supply an explanation.

Canada Universal Voter ID

A requirement for identification to vote in Canadian Federal elections is a new process and the woke folk supplied the usual resistance. The current government is proposing mail-in ballots as well and this effort is up in the air for the next election. While this is something our Canadian friends work to make right, their voter ID requirement makes the United States look like a third-world country. The Canadian Federal Government manages elections and has voter information stored. So, shall we get on the horn to the Caustic Cancel Culture Program (CCCP) and sic them on Canada? Furthermore, do we insist that Major League Baseball cancel their relationship with the Toronto Blue Jays?

Drug Dispensing Machines

How about $3.5 million for vending machines to dispense medical-grade opioids? The federal government supplied funding for five vending machines that will dispense the “meds” in British Columbia, Ontario, and Nova Scotia. This program will (supposedly) help prevent overdoses.

Father Arrested for Being Father

A British Columbia father faced contempt of court charges concerning the spreading of information about his transgender child. The father breached court orders banning him from revealing the identities of his child, his former wife, and medical professionals engaged in his child’s transgender treatment. It is all about the father’s objection to his child born female at birth but undergoing “gender affirmation treatments.” The mother supported the child’s transition, and the father ended up in jail for calling his daughter his daughter.

All the above problems occurred because some lousy woke judge or judges said to call a girl a girl is illegal. The high court ordered the dad not to stand in the way of the 15-year-old’s hormone therapy. He shall better understand gender dysphoria! The loving officials ordered the dad to stop speaking to the media about the case. They warned that his public attempts to undermine his child’s wishes are a form of “family violence.” More recently, the system sentenced the father to six months of incarceration and subject him to a mandatory $30,000 donation to charity. This makes Orwell’s 1984 seem mild.

Free Speech Fallen

A Canadian activist from Vancouver traveled to Montreal to peacefully show his displeasure about giving puberty blockers to children. Black-clad debased woke folk attacked the man. These commie creeps punched the activist, stole his camera, and broke his arm with a traffic cone. The incident occurred in downtown Montreal, where the Vancouver resident said he was having a peaceful conversation with a local man. Video shows several assailants, including at least one woman. 

Independent Media Not

The pro-government media has been bought out by the Prime Minister via a $30 million bailout package. If they dissent, they lose their funding so everyone in the Canadian media supports lockdowns. On March 20, 2020, the National Observer reported Prime Minister Trudeau’s remarks: “Right now, it is more important than ever that Canadians have access to the latest news and information… To ensure that journalists can continue to do this vital work, our government is announcing new measures to support them.” Let us face it cogent unwoke folk, Plandemic lockdowns cause more problems than they supposedly fix. Just like in the USA, the Canadian Media is a lapdog for the government.

But wait there is more. The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) is a state broadcaster (completely funded by the government) that gets $1.5 billion per year in federal subsidies but only watched by 329,000 people in Canada. There have been calls to defund the state broadcaster altogether. The current policy of the federal opposition is to defund the English portion of the CBC but many people say this does not go far enough.

History Forgotten and Ignored

Our Canadian correspondent spoke to people that immigrated legally to Canada who lived during communist rule in Poland. They are terrified that the same thing is happening in Canada with all the socialist programs implemented under the guise of fighting Covid. Likewise, the better half of the son of your author’s neighbor is from Russia. This lady, and her Russian parents, have the same sentiment about the States as reported by our Canadian correspondent.

Interprovincial Travel Trashed

Interprovincial travel is a way of life, but Québec restricted it last year and it affected many people. Divorced parents with shared custody were not able to see their children. The “Covid Police” forbade the maintenance of cottages and second properties. Also, they prohibited medical help unless a patient already had an appointment. People could not go property shopping. The mayor of Ottawa said that he did not approve of this but had to comply as it was a provincial order. The understaffed police situation results in more crime in trying to enforce these draconian measures.

Officials were exempt from the travel restrictions. With churches closed, the Prime Minister was able to cross provincial lines to visit his cottage for Easter.

Military Propaganda Plan

Canadian military leaders developed a propaganda plan to thwart civil disobedience caused by Covid measures. However, the top brass shut it down because of its radical measures of “shaping” and “exploiting” information. Specifically, the program planners wanted to keep civil order during the Plandemic. Cooler heads prevailed because of concerns that the plan could be open to abuse because of the propaganda. Military sources contacted the Canadian media to raise concerns. Issued on April 8, 2020, it was officially halted on May 1, 2020. The top military leader said that as long as he is in charge, these tactics wouldn’t be used in a domestic situation (except in the case of an enemy invasion).

Riots in Canada

On April 11, 2021, scores of protesters set fires and smashed windows in downtown Montreal. This Canadian version of mostly peaceful protests occurred because of an adjustment to a Covid-1984 curfew. With the officials tightening the city-wide curfew from 9:30 to 8:00 PM, the protest erupted and police responded with tear gas. This move, also implemented in other Covid-19 hot spots across the province took effect in Montreal. The protest began in relative calm, with a mostly young crowd dancing to music from loudspeakers while lighting fireworks and chanting, “freedom for the young.”

Saving Ethnic Babies Equals Hate Speech

In October 2020, a Canadian territorial Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA), equivalent to a member of a state legislator in the USA, faced removal from his cabinet position of Artic College and Nanavut Housing Corporation. As a reference, Nunavut is a Canadian Territory (the newest, largest, and northernmost territory of Canada). MLA legislator Patterk Netser denounced burn loot & mayhem (BLM) and abortions in the African American community. He posted comments on Facebook criticizing African American women for having abortions and saying that “all lives matter.” Premier Joe Savikataaq said Netser’s comments were “based on racism and gender violence.” So, saving babies is a form of racism.

Unreal Real Estate

Homes in Toronto’s poorest neighborhoods are going for $750,000. Many residents are either leaving the city or applying for social housing. A hut in Toronto sold last year for almost $2 million. A tiny Toronto house that hit the market for $1 million has just sold for $800,000 over its asking price. The two-bedroom, one-bathroom home in “Little Italy” went up for sale in July 2020 and received lots of attention for its high asking price. Meanwhile, a basketball player in Toronto recently sold his house for $5.12 million. When the story made international news, many people could not believe the small size of the house. Five million dollars does not buy much in Toronto anymore. It is exceedingly difficult to build housing due to red tape, so prices have always been artificially high. 

Many people in Canada buy housing as an “investment” instead of stock as the price always increases due to lack of supply. Government intervention also makes the housing industry something “too big to fail.” Corona-doom has merely accelerated this process. Rentals and condominium pricing/capacity in Toronto are dropping drastically but property increases in value throughout Canada in general.

Xenophobia in Canada?

A University of British Columba student from Ontario reported vandalism to her car while enjoying skiing at a ski resort. Because her car has Ontario license plates, she urged others to think twice before judging a car and its driver based on its license plates.  

Along these lines, in a blast from the past, your author traveled to Canada some 30 years ago to do some professional technical consulting. Small measuring instruments in my baggage got the Canadian customs in an uproar. They asked why a US citizen would be doing this work with Canadians out of work. Convincing the officials that this was an incredibly special consult with the Canadian company requesting my services, they let me go on. While irritating back then, I now say good for Canada to take care of their own. Oh Canada!

Your author’s experience at the border is not unique and goes both ways. Canadian NAFTA status workers, when they go to the States, legally get the same resistance at the border. It makes Canadians scratch their head as they are given resistance and accused of “stealing US jobs” while the debased woke swamp creatures let illegal aliens (oops, undocumented visitors) in from Mexico. The Canadian workers worried that NAFTA status would change as Trump re-drafted NAFTA, but nothing changed.

Afterword

By their actions, the Canadian overlords, like many in the States, imply by their unconstitutional and cruel actions that Corona-doom shall only be canceled after zero. We are talking zero sicknesses, zero “cases,” zero hospital admissions, and zero deaths. And let us not forget zero CO2. As a bonus for the overlords (or should it be over-loads), this zero will never occur, thus ushering in the forever new normal. So, therefore it is necessary and convenient to classify so many losses as Covid. In normal times a lot of these same losses would be, well, losses. RIP deceased fellow citizens of the world.

Currently, Canada’s leaders are the Western Hemisphere’s Covid worshipping poster children. The crème de la crème is the Province of Ontario with its Covid Police State. My good Canadian friends and other citizens are in shock. Meanwhile, our woke governors in the States look on with envy.

The masked virtue-signaling marches on. Just listen (it hurts) to the Fauchi worshippers who go along with wearing a mask after vaccination. We are equals now, the Church of Covid, just like Animal Farm. Too bad our leaders do not just man up (uh oh, hate speech) and say the truth: the crummy experimental injections are as worthless as a tit on a bullfrog. On the other hand, it just may be the ticket to cull the population in the long run. That is good for Mother Gaia.

Out of bad comes some good news. Many Canadian leaders have stood up, but they have been ostracized by the media or kicked out of their respective parties. So many politicians have been kicked out, they have started an anti-lockdown caucus.

And, last but not least, check out this gem: Canada’s disturbing censorship conversation.

    Collision Course - Guest Post by Dale T.


    Frederick R Smith has moved to Frederick R. Smith Speaks (substack.com)

    America is on a Collision Course with Almighty God
    “Shall Not the Judge of All the Earth Do Right”
    Guest Post by Dale T.

    Representative Greg Stuebe (R-FL) spoke during the floor debate on the Equality Act. He quoted the Bible and said that “A rejection of God’s design of complementary sexes offends God.” Democratic Representative Jerry Nadler of New York asserted that “God’s will is no concern of this Congress.” Sadly, not one Democrat came out against what Nadler said. Multitudes of people in America and those in political parties are revealed in Romans 1:21-22, “For although they knew God, they neither glorified Him as God, nor gave thanks to Him, but their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claim to be wise, they became fools.” Romans 1:28, “They did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so they did what ought not to be done.” They were given over to sexual perversion, envy, evil, greed, deceitfulness, pride, unforgiveness, God-haters, arrogant, boastful, having no love or mercy. Because of the increase of lawlessness, the hearts of many have grown cold.

    What happens to a people and a nation that reject God and continue to live sinful lives? Their thinking and reasoning will become dark and confused. Isaiah 5:20-23, “Woe (judgment, deep suffering, affliction) to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter. Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine and champions at mixing drinks, woe to those who acquit the guilty for a bribe, but deny justice to the innocent.” Scripture verses taken from Isaiah 59, “But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden His face from you so that He will not hear. For your hands are stained with blood, your fingers with guilt. Your lips have spoken falsely, and your tongue mutters wicked things. No one calls for justice. Nor does any plead for truth. They trust in empty words and speak lies; they conceive evil and bring forth iniquity. Therefore, justice is far from us, nor does righteousness overtake us. For our transgressions are multiplied before You, and our sins testify against us; for our transgressions are with us and as for iniquities, we know them. Justice is turned back, and righteousness stands afar; for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter. So, truth fails, and he who departs from evil makes himself a prey.” 

    The Old Testament scripture tells what happens to a people and to a nation that rejects and forgets God. Psalm 9:17, “The wicked shall be turned into hell and all nations that forget God.” One Corinthians 10:11, “Now all these things happened unto them as examples and they are written for our admonition, warning, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.” Matthew 24:37-39, “As the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage until the day that Noah entered the ark, and they did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will be the coming of the Son of Man be.” Two Peter 2:6, “If He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly.” 

    Jesus told a parable about a rich man and Lazarus, a beggar who died. When the rich man died, he went to Hades, where he was in torment. The rich man asked for pity and to send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool his tongue, “because I am in agony in this fire.” The Bible says, “Our God is a consuming fire.” The greatest and most important question in all of life is what must I do to be saved? Acts 4:12, “Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name, (Jesus Christ), under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” This salvation saves us from a Christ-less eternity and from hell itself. Luke 13:5, Jesus said, “I tell you, no, but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.” Acts 17:30, “… but now God commands all people everywhere to repent.” Two Peter 3:9, “The Lord is not slack concerning His promise as some count slackness, but is long-suffering, patient towards us, not willing that any should perish, but they all should come to repentance.” Repentance is absolute, unconditional surrender to God. It is sorrow and regret over our sin. When we repent we make a 180 degree turn towards God. 

    What will happen if we are not ‘born again’ and our names are not written in The Book of Life? Revelations 2:11, “The one who has an ear let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. The one who overcomes, (born again), will not be hurt by the second death.” Revelations 20:14-15, “Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death, and anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.” The Bible says there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth in the lake of fire. Revelation 21:8, “But cowards, unbelievers, the corrupt, murderers, the immoral, those who practice witchcraft, idol worshipers, (anyone or anything you love more than Jesus Christ is an idol), and all liars - their fate is in the fiery lake of burning sulfur, this is the second death.” 

    According to the scriptures, this new life begins with repentance of our sins towards God, like lying, stealing, taking God’s name in vain, and lusting in our hearts, and that is just four of God’s Ten Commandments. The Bible says if we break one commandment, we have broken them all. We are all guilty and there is none righteous, no not one. Christ died for us even while we were dead in our sins and trespasses. All of us are in desperate need of a Savior. Ask Jesus Christ to forgive your sins and be your Lord and Savior. Trust and believe that His suffering and death on the cross paid for your sins in full. The Holy Spirit will witness to your spirit you are now a child of God. Your name has been written in the Book of Life. Old things in your life will pass away and all things become new. You will now hate what God hates (sin) and you will love what God loves, righteousness and holiness. You will begin to love God and begin to love all people. The Holy Spirit will give you the power to accomplish the will of God for your life.  

    One John 5:13, “I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may KNOW that you have eternal life.” Ephesians 1:7, “In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins…” Ephesians 1:12-14, “That we who first trusted in Christ should be to the praise of His glory. In Him you also trusted after you heard the word of Truth, the gospel of your salvation, in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the Redemption of the purchased possession, (believers), to the praise of His glory.”

      Dubious Pierre Teilhard De Chardin


      Frederick R Smith has moved to Frederick R. Smith Speaks (substack.com)
      Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881–1955) entered the Society of Jesus (Jesuit) order in 1899 at the age of 18. Just as he started his geology studies in Paris, World War I broke out. He enlisted as a stretcher-bearer and served during the entire war.

      Ordained a Catholic priest in 1911, Teilhard thereafter received a doctorate in paleontology in 1922. He lectured at the Institut Catholique in Paris from 1920-23. He visited China in 1923-24 and returned to France to teach, but in 1926 his superiors forced him to abandon the academic field. He returned to China because of his controversial attempts to reconcile the traditional view of original sin with his concept of evolution. His superiors also decided to limit his publications to purely scientific material, a limitation that continued throughout his lifetime.

      Shortly after his return to China, Teilhard became an adviser to the National Geological Survey. It was in this capacity that he collaborated on research that resulted in the 1929 discovery of “Peking man” (Homo erectus). He remained in China until 1946 and it was during this period that he completed the manuscript of The Phenomenon of Man. This work outlined his concept of “cosmic evolution.” He believed that evolution was a process involving all matter (the cosmos) undergoing more complex changes that would lead to the “Omega Point.”

      Trapped in China due to World War II, Teilhard returned to France after the war ended. However, from 1951 until his death in 1955, he lived in New York.

      Teilhard’s evolutionism earned him the distrust of his religious superiors. Even the scientific community was suspicious of his religious mysticism, but there was a large contingent of people who cherished Teilhard’s work. Sir Julian Huxley posthumously published Teilhard’s works including Letters from a Traveler, The Divine Milieu, The Future of Man, Human Energy, Activation of Energy, and Hymn of the Universe. The overarching philosophy (or theology) of Teilhard was his mantra that claimed humanity followed a path to unification up to perfection, the “Omega Point.” This is just another utopian mind scheme.

      Teilhard lives on today in the writings of many new age thinkers. For example, Marilyn Ferguson in her best-selling 1980 new age book The Aquarian Conspiracy (I actually have a copy of this weird book) points to the spiritual evolution taught by Teilhard who “prophesied the phenomenon central to this book: a conspiracy of men and women whose new perspective would trigger a critical contagion of change.” [1]  Former Vice President Albert Gore also points to a vision of Teilhard in his 1992 book, Earth in the Balance: “The religious ethic of stewardship is indeed harder to accept if one believes the world is in danger of being destroyed -- by either God or humankind. Teilhard previously wrote a similar screed: ‘The fate of mankind, as well as of religion, depends upon the emergence of a new faith in the future.’ Armed with such a faith, we might find it possible to re-sanctify the earth.” [2]

      Some people believe that Teilhard foresaw the Internet based on this quote from his 1947 book The Formation of the Noosphere:

      “No one can deny that a network (a world network) of economic and psychic affiliations is being woven at ever-increasing speed which envelops and constantly penetrates more deeply within each of us. With every day that passes it becomes a little more impossible for us to act or think otherwise than collectively.”

      In addition to the above dubious axioms, Teilhard was a champion of “Liberation Theology,” which embraces the egalitarian precepts of Marxism. More specifically, he believed that economics evolve like creatures, and in time society will change to supply the necessities for all people in an equal manner. Sounds nice but as discerning readers know the reality is a lot different. After World War II, both the Jesuit and Dominican orders allowed some of their members to become “priest-workers” in the manner preached by Teilhard. The church leaders encouraged these “priests” to mingle with the workers of the world, even to riot or take up arms in conflicts such as the Nicaraguan civil war. Nevertheless, we do not hear from those enamored with the non-existent “wall of separation” ever complain about clergy who get involved with egalitarian politics. A priest who is fighting with communist rebels is just dandy; after all, the result is “all that matters.” 

      Teilhard and his fellow travelers despised the hierarchy of the Church. Some will think that this concept is grand, as “communist societies assure that everybody is equal.” Again, it is important to say not so: never has, and never will be. The leaders of communist regimes were anything but equal to the rest of society, but sadly this fact still eludes those with egalitarian worldviews. This was the same trait that Teilhard exhibited. Unfortunately, people like Teilhard and like-minded individuals to this day think and believe that such notions are the only way to fix all the ills of society.

      I am inclined to say that most who subscribe to this thinking believe that they are doing a good deed for society. Along these lines, our friends with this worldview will point out the fantasy of universal health because they do not know about the virtual lack of it in Canada and other nations with socialized medicine.

      To be perfectly honest, this author does not completely fault most people enamored with collectivism because the media and education system are virtually silent about the horrors of Communism. It is too bad that the masses are not as educated about Communism as they are about the horrors of Nazism. We all know of the copious movies about the horrors of the Nazi regime. However, Hollywood produced virtually no movies about the horrors of Communism. The Back Book of Communism is a profound reality check.

      All of the above notwithstanding, what is so sad is the fact even to mention that Communism was (is) as bad as Nazism brings on the clarion call of “Holocaust Denier” or McCarthyism.

      After digressing a bit, it’s prudent to note that the Teilhard story is one small glimpse of just one chapter in a long story about the Jesuits, some of which can be a source of much discussion and controversy. Nevertheless, there are indeed many good things that the Jesuits have performed for humanity.

      Fast forward to recent history. It is obvious that Teilhard’s philosophy has a special place in the influencing spirit used by the preachers and leaders of today. Nowadays the Supreme Pontiff is a shining example. The “wall of separation” only apples to orthodox teachings but the Teilhard-like new age mind mush gets a pass.
