Re: Is it still OK to Ask Questions ?

I was pleased to read an article which questioned the mainstream narrative - and that’s basically all that was done was to question it - it wasn’t to disagree, just questioned. It seems that thinking anything contrary to this narrative is an egregious ‘crime’ - especially if a similarity is pointed out to historical events which we are all determined never to see repeated!

I say the article was refreshing, and I want you to know that there are a few people (albeit a shrinking and increasingly marginalized minority) who are questioning right along with you. One of the most difficult things during this past year is making sense of the dissonance in our world, and this contributes to the fear and anxiety which is so prevalent around us. But the answer to that dissonance is not to refuse to confront all sides of an issue, as uncomfortable as that may be. And “all sides” is not what we are getting from mainstream media, or from our medical or political leaders…..they all sing the same song, and we all must believe only that information! ……unless, of course, you are willing to dig for and open your mind to alternative information.

For example, we are told that COVID has caused unprecedented deaths all over the world! Okay - what would be a good check on that information? How about if we check the Statistics Canada website to see if more people died in Canada during 2020 than would be normally expected …..and we find that in Canada, and specifically in Saskatchewan, numbers of deaths have been right on par with the most recent 10 years’ data. Even following the same seasonal trends. In other words - there were no excess deaths in Saskatchewan in 2020 - and that is even considering the disturbing increase in deaths from suicide and drug overdose which have been reported in 2020. Check it out for yourself on statcan. gc.ca.

Would it be legitimate now to ask the question “is this really a lethal pandemic?” say it isn’t a pandemic, only that the degree of lethality may be questioned.

I have one more question I would like to ask - “when did our ‘medical’ system abandon ‘health’ care”? Arguably the most glaring omission in the information that is provided to the general public is how to maintain good health and resist this virus. Particularly, when we have all been told our health, even our lives, are at risk and we must all run and hide in our homes, not once over the course of this whole year have I heard a segment on mainstream media offering information about the long list of proven interventions that support immune health, prevent infection and even treat COVID, should you be unfortunate enough to be among the 3% of the population that tests positive. It would be a refreshing source of hope to us all if our local doctors would bring health promoting strategies to our attention when they have the opportunity, rather than simply telling us how full the hospital is and reminding us to wash our hands and stay home.

Please do not assume I am undervaluing medical care - I am a retired health-care worker, and my thoughts and prayers have often gone out to those on the front lines that are caring for very sick people, often putting themselves at risk. They deserve our gratitude. They also deserve the truth about what could help them and their patients pursue health and avoid succumbing to any virus, and many chronic diseases as well. And they aren’t getting the whole truth from Big Pharma, believe me. The vaccines are not our only hope! But, I won’t allow myself to get started on that subject!

I say ask all the questions that are on your heart! And when you find some answers, please be brave enough to write about them so we can all be informed, even if it means we must endure the discomfort of thinking for ourselves!
