Shameful Failure

"I once thought losing my confidence was the worst thing that could happen; then I lost my faith." -- Bobby Vee (1943-2016)

Prelude

For the past few years, it's been difficult to be a loyal and devoted Canadian. At times, I consider myself stateless. Of course, our Boy Wonder or should I say Boy Bungle in Ottawa has never proven to me he is a worthwhile or competent person to be Prime Minister. I deem that as a complete farce. As I've said before, he is an embarrassment and disgrace to this country. Do I have to remind you he financially compensated Omar Khadar who was a bloodthirsty terrorist of I.S.I.S. "Our leader" said the barbaric savage's case was a Charter of Rights and Freedoms issue? I don't believe that one bit. "Mr. Fantastic" will never convince me of this foolish and mindless decision. Isn't it "funny" how that statute functions at times. I wish our "beloved one" would do a lot of people a favour. Resign and return to teaching white river rafting. Anyway, enough about the "do-gooder" and misfit.

There are many problems that need massive repair in Canada, and one of them is the justice system. It's completely absurd…a real fucking joke. Let's talk about the Youth Criminal Justice Act (Y.C.J.A.) for a moment. It was established in 2003. It replaced the Young Offenders Act (Y.O.A.), which was created in 1984 by our laughable ruler's "father" and his Liberal gang.

The Y.C.J.A. produces a separate criminal justice system for young persons and promotes adolescents to become law-abiding citizens. It also encourages having those teenagers take responsibility for their actions. The system realizes the level of maturity is not the same degree as an adult. Interesting. Is the government saying a 16-year-old who murders someone doesn't really know what he or she was doing because of the "maturity factor"? As far as I'm concerned, that's a crock of shit. What happened to the old saying "do the crime, do the time." But then again the defence lawyers will, without a doubt, take complete advantage of that legislation.

Anyway, here's the latest example of an "immature" young person committing a horrendous crime. On Feb. 4/22 a Grade 12 Toronto High School student was murdered by a 14-year-old juvenile. Police described it as an execution style killing. The boy was charged with murder and attempted murder.

In 2014 a 14-year-old male youth shot and killed a 13-year-old girl in Toronto, Ontario. He was convicted of murder but only sentenced to three years because of the Y.C.J.A. Yep, justice served. You tell me, is that right?

Our country is blessed with the upside down and asinine Parole Board of Canada (P.B.C.). Their latest travesty was Feb. 11/22 when the Toronto Sun reported Rohan Range was able to leave prison for two months to attend "personal development" at a community facility. All he did was slaughter two sisters in 1995. Sounds like he has a bit of a temper.

Another revolting story by the nauseating P.B.C. was about Marcello Palma. He murdered three prostitutes in Toronto, Ontario in 1996. For some strange reason, he shot each woman in their head with a .357 Magnum. He was given a "life sentence" but as of now this lunatic is living at a halfway house in Barrie, Ontario. The P.B.C. are such "caring" people.

Corey Christopher Tremblett murdered his former 17-year-old girlfriend in Nova Scotia. He was convicted of second degree murder in 1998. In 2018, he was granted four unescorted temporary absences and in late 2021 he was allowed day parole for six months.

Another sleazebag is Brian Edward Abrosimo who was convicted of sexual assaults, sexual assault with a weapon, unlawful confinement and forcible confinement. He was sentenced to 14 years and 4 months in 2004. He also attacked an eleven-year-old girl. He now resides in a community residential facility somewhere in British Columbia. Maybe once the P.B.C. got to know him, he was an all right guy.

Graham James was a former hockey coach and sentenced to 7 years in prison for multiple sex charges of players he instructed in the 1990's. He was granted full parole in 2016 and lives at a halfway house in Montreal. I wonder if there is an arena close by?

This last case is a perfect example how this outrageous system is completely deplorable. In 2020 Donald Possy received day parole in Montreal despite having a high risk of reoffending. All his problem was he's a long-time sex offender and has a history of child luring. Obviously, the P.B.C. doesn't give a flying fuck about public safety.

These are only a few. Trust me, the list goes on and on. There are many dangerous people walking the streets, concentrating on their prey and ready to attack.

Epilogue

The P.B.C. is disgusting and shameless. Their insanity must create constant havoc for a lot of victims' families. It almost seems this preposterous commission shows pity and feels sorry for these horrendous criminals. Numerous occasions show the punishment doesn't fit the crime, and we can thank the non-elected judges for their appalling decisions. Some of these magistrates give ridiculous and light sentences to violent demons. With Liberals controlling our destiny, we will see more of our justice system collapse. Don't be surprised if the heinous Paul Bernardo gets some sort of parole sooner or later. Any bets?

My Head Continues To Spin

"Life is full of circles" - Nora Roberts (1950-)

Prelude

I know everyone is weary and certainly had enough of the Wu Flu or as other people refer to it as Covid-19. Wait a minute. Not everyone is sick and tired of the chaos. The pharmaceutical companies are enjoying this turmoil. I find it very strange that hardly no one calls this virus the Wuhan Flu. Is it racist to say Wuhan Flu? Either way the government and media has drilled into our heads the name Covid-19 (as well as other things) is the appropriate name. I wonder how long the high priced help of W.H.O. (World Health Organization) took to create that handle. You must remember they're part of the United Nations and we all know how ambitious, successful as well as effective the U.N. really is. Have conditions actually changed for the good in Third World countries?

You may recall I wrote a rant last year titled "You Be The Judge". Since then I'm still confused and feel uncertain about the Wu Flu. Once again, before you call me "whatever" I realize this virus is for real and sadly individuals have passed away. The Covid-19 numbers in Ontario between Dec. 25/21 to Jan. 1/22 had almost 100,000 people tested positive. We all know the Golden Years folks are more vulnerable to contact this Wu Flu than the younger generations. In fact they're more susceptible to catch any sickness.

Back in 1999 I was afflicted with the flu like I've never experienced before. I didn't eat for five days and slept (I kid you not) 22 hours a day. The only time I got up out of bed was to have a couple sips of water and a few drags off a cigarette. On occasion I would go to the washroom and my bowel movements were a black liquid. Finally I forced myself to see my doctor. He told me I was on the verge of pneumonia and threatened he would hospitalize me if I didn't start to eat immediately. To this day I still say it. If was in my eighties or nineties I would've died. But because I was 45 years old my system was able to combat the virus and I finally recovered.

Now comes my question period. Why did people test positive after they received their two shots? Why is it N.H.L. (National Hockey League) players who sit on the bench are not required to wear masks? Another example was the Scotties Curling Tournament in Thunder Bay, Ontario back on Jan. 28/22 to Feb. 6/22. The female curlers weren't wearing masks and social distancing wasn't practiced at all by the participants. However, Ontario was "in" a lockdown until Jan. 31/22.

One sporting event that had me totally befuddled was the World Cup qualifying soccer game played on Jan. 30/22 at Tim Hortons Field in Hamilton, Ontario. The province was still in a lockdown but our (buck a beer) Premier and his gang decided to let the game proceed with more stringent pandemic restrictions. Instead of full capacity (24,000) they only allowed half the amount of spectators.

As usual every morning I sit on my living room couch, drink my coffee and watch T.S.N. sports highlights from the night and/or day before. I saw the feature from that soccer match and shook my head in disbelief. The 12,000 fans were packed into the north side of the stadium like sardines. Hmm. Where was the social distancing? Plus what baffled me to a greater extent was I noticed a lot of spectators weren't wearing masks. I'm assuming the fans had to show their vaccination certificates but the fearful media had stated even people who are fully vaccinated are still testing positive with Covid-19. How does that happen?

I felt sorry for the folks who stood outside in frigid temperatures waiting to receive their Wu Flu kits. However, I shook my head in disgust when I read our "responsible" government ran out of the devices. Yep, only the fools at the House of Commons or Queens Park could pull a boner like that.

Then we have two other caring individuals who would thoroughly love to command and rule Ontario. New Democratic Party (NDP) queen Andrea Horvath and Liberal overseer Steven Del Duca. Of course they have to give their "knowledge and mastery" on the issue. These two leftists wanted all certificates to require a third dose. What's next? As usual they're trying to make themselves look like real honest to goodness thoughtful and considerate saviours.

A very good friend of mine sent me an e-mail three weeks ago that I found intriguing. The Herland Report indicated Israel had over 90% of their population vaccinated but Israeli hospitals were filled with Covid-19 patients. Figure that one out.

Media and government continued to install fear and paranoia into our minds. In fact my neighbour wore a mask when she was outside working in her garden. Now the latest I heard governments are treating the virus as history.

Epilogue

I'm still in a stupor about this whole non-stop misadventure. At times I wonder if it's overplayed. You do realize the government and media have mysterious powers to make people overreact as well as panic. Sometimes I speculate if this flu was "slightly" exaggerated. I recently read Omicron has two other variants, BA-2 and BA-4. Here we go again. Our "leaders" and the Fourth Estate will have another field day controlling as well as placing us in a state of fear. Let's hope it's all bogus. Time will tell.

The Inception of the Antique Sideshow

All the crap they tell you about...getting joy and having a kind of wisdom in your golden years - it's all tripe. Woody Allen (1935-)

Prelude

The experts say life has three stages. My E.A. (Executive Assistant) and I as well as most of my friends have entered the Third Stage also known as the Golden Years. This portion of our lives is considered to be the age between 65 and 80 plus years old. Sadly physical, emotional and cognitive limitations start to develop. Bones become thinner and brittle. We may have heart problems. Our brain and nervous system may slow down. We could also see a change in our digestive system. Other geriatric specialists say the real Golden Years are between the ages of 40 and 60 years old. Most folks are physically fit (not yet experiencing any aches or pains) and settled into their lifestyles. They don't think about their sunset years. I feel the age bracket between 18 and 30 were my "Golden Years". That era consisted of a lot of fun and pleasure.

Last November 11 I was sitting at my table (that's where I do all of my writing) looking out the living room window daydreaming. I do that quite often. I was thinking it had been fifty years to that day I took my very first love to the Hamilton High School Football Championship at Ivor Wynn Stadium. It was traditional the championship game be played on Remembrance Day. Fifty years! Fifty fucking years. Absolutely astonishing and more so very hard to believe. That's half a century. On numerous occasions it's difficult to swallow that I'm in my 68'th year. However, it doesn't take long for me to re-enter reality because of all my annoying aches and pains that have visited my body as well as making a permanent residence in my anatomy. Never imagined this would ever happen.

Prior to having an appendectomy in May of 2011 my next traumatic adventure was January 5, 2022...yeah Happy New Year! I injured my back about twenty years ago (I worked a lot of physical jobs) and it came back to haunt me. My back had been bothering me all day so I was popping different pills to eliminate the pain.

At six p.m. I was laying on my bed watching T.V. I had to get up because nature was calling. I let out a loud scream of pain and quickly realized I couldn't stand up. The pain was unbearable and felt like I was paralyzed...extremely frightening. My E.A. phoned 911 and help was on the way...paramedics as well as the fire department arrived within a few moments. They rolled my body onto a backboard then placed me on a gurney and the ambulance transported me to the hospital. On my way to Juravinski a paramedic injected a shot of Hydromorphone into my arm to ease the pain.

As usual the emergency room was very busy. There were at least four ambulances with patients waiting to be seen...I thought lordy lordy Fordy was going to fix that problem. Typical politician. Talk the talk but many times doesn't walk the walk.

During my hospital visit I was given Hydromorphone two more times mixed with my I.V. I didn't see a doctor until 9:00 p.m. and blood work was done on me around 11:00 p.m. I was hoping for a CT scan but no such luck. Probably because I had previously mentioned I was diagnosed with a herniated disc in L4L5 years ago.

Throughout my stay I was stoned but the pain lingered. They discharged me at 1:30 a.m. and I was obviously still bombed. My E.A. drove us to an all-night drug store to purchase more medication prescribed by the emergency room doctor. When we arrived home I immediately went to bed. As soon as my head hit the pillow I was out like a light.

My family doctor returned my call (which I placed on January 5) on January 7. He was a bit confused about my misadventure because of the lack of information from the hospital. Anyway, he made an M.R.I. appointment referral for me...I'm still waiting for that call. Great health care system eh but $1billion for the ridiculous L.R.T. My back pain has decreased but I still continue to suffer pain in the back of my thighs.

Epilogue

I should be more appreciative and grateful I can still walk, talk and act like a jerk at times. A few of my friends have passed away, a long-time buddy uses a walker to get around and another friend has had heart surgery. Almost everyone I know is on some sort of medication. If anyone knows where that Fountain of Youth is located PLEASE LET ME KNOW!

Time To Rejoice

Hello folks. Another year has scooted by and will be part of our history very soon. The past few years have been challenging and 2021 wasn't any different. The Wuhan Flu (Covid-19) is plaguing everyone and doesn't seem to disappear for good. Canadian voters sauntered to the polls and re-elected the "beloved saviour" Justin (never worked a day in his life) Trudeau as Prime Minister...prepare yourselves for more bedlam. A frequently used word in the 1970's has resurfaced. It's called inflation. Last but not least turmoil and chaos continues to distress many nations especially third world countries. Hmm, I thought the purpose of the United Nations was to eliminate all that mayhem.

Okay. Enough of depressing reality. It's suppose to be the most wonderful time of the year. So, let's try to forget all the misery plus the bullshit and develop a joyous mood. You do realize it's "tis the season". Enjoy your family, friends, and neighbours. It's time to relax, unwind and just take it easy. Eat, drink and be merry. Who cares if you add a few pounds on to your figure. Once again "tis the season". Don't let the Wu Flu put a damper on this time of year. Decorate your home inside and outside. Make you place look very Christmassy. You'll be surprised how much it will enhance your festive frame of mind. The Dollar Store has a superb selection and numerous Christmas paraphernalia at very reasonable prices.

I know our country requires considerable improvements in many categories but let's try to appreciate and be grateful for what we have. From my E.A. (Executive Assistant) and myself MERRY CHRISTMAS as well as HAPPY NEW YEAR.

Please do everyone a favour...If you get high don't drive.

Buddy

Benjamin Whichcote (1609-1683)

Prelude

Most of us live beside or across the street from neighbours. It's an unavoidable situation if you live in a residential area. Even folks living in apartment complexes have neighbours. They're not as noticeable but still present. The only way to completely avoid neighbours is to live in an isolated sector. On occasion a neighbour dispute might happen. However, most neighbours are congenial and sociable. It only takes one person to neglect the upkeep of their home and tarnishes the reputation of the rest of the neighbourhood. Letting your grass grow so high it requires a scythe to cut it or creating a junkyard could make other homeowners' property depreciate in value. Nevertheless, most people display self-respect and pride in their homes.

My E.A. (Executive Assistant) and I have lived in a middle-class neighbourhood on the central mountain of Hamilton, Ontario since 2001. Before we purchased our home both of us noticed in the real estate listing the seller mentioned wonderful neighbours. We quickly discovered the neighbours were wonderful people. Throughout the years some folks have come and gone for various reasons. In spite of that the new neighbours continue to be friendly and keep their properties looking very presentable. It seems like a natural trend.

Everyone (almost everyone) will help out each other and lend assistance when needed. We were without a car for almost three weeks and my next door neighbour was kind enough to loan her car to us whenever we needed to go out. Another neighbour repaired some copper plumbing pipe in our home. During the winter months I will remove snow from a few of my neighbours sidewalks and driveways using my snow blower. I don't ask for anything but a lot of them will show their appreciation by giving me some sort of gratuity. We know our immediate neighbours in a favourable manner. They are very nice, pleasant and helpful. Except for one.

"Buddy" is light years away from being obliging and eager to help people. I nicknamed him "Buddy" because of a sarcastic or mocking nature he displays. I know he's been called worse and I'm not the only one who knows he just doesn't fit into our neighbourhood. He seems very full of himself and it's all about, guess who? "Buddy"

My final straw with my vain neighbour happened during the spring of 2021. I was pounding the pavement in my neighbourhood collecting signatures for a petition to install speed bumps which will be a future rant. The city refers speed bumps as speed cushions. Will this political correctness bullshit ever end? Anyway, "Buddy" had previously told me he would probably support this issue. The day I asked him to sign the request he stood on his front porch and I was standing on the driveway. He walked into the house to obtain a pen and mumbled something to his wife. Suddenly he insisted in a stern voice, "We're not interested in speed bumps" and slammed the door on me. I was completely livid and outraged. My blood was boiling.

Of course I was disappointed I never received his support but what really infuriated me was his absolute rudeness and uncivil behaviour. In other words, he was a fucking asshole. I wasn't some salesperson or politician soliciting. I've known the son of a bitch for ten years. I'm his neighbour. Once again, I totally condemn him for his utter discourtesy and disrespectful behaviour. I definitely know where I "stand" with him now. Maybe we'll all be lucky and the big-headed jerk will move. We can only hope.

Epilogue

I consider myself a very neighbourly and friendly type of guy. I try to get along with people. If I'm capable of the task I will volunteer my services to give assistance to my neighbours. I understand some people just want to mind their own business and in essence not be bothered with anyone. That's okay. To each their own. However that's not in my recipe. I've owned four homes during my existence and can honestly say none of the immediate neighbours demonstrated an attitude like "Buddy". I know there are a lot of people like "Buddy" in our fucked-up world not just as a neighbour but also in the work place. Either way life goes on.

Declination

Writer's note: "Hush Hush My Precious Taxpayer" will be written at a later date.

"No doubt about it, things have certainly changed." Dick Anderson (1946-)

Change is inevitable. Sooner or later it's sure to happen. I think my generation (I'm in my 68th year) has seen more change than other peer groups. Change can be positive and beneficial. However, on the flipside it can be useless and harmful. Sometimes we can use the word adjustment. Many businesses (big and small) "improve" or modify their goods and services. Look at food for example. Specifically chocolate bars and cookies. The quality still might be there but the quantity has without a doubt diminished. Business owners have two objectives. One is to make money. The other is wanting customers to return to their operations and purchase their items or services.

As I write this rant the Wuhan Flu is still lingering and some proprietors continue to experience adversity. I've always considered the virus serious but how serious? Anyway, our political saviors think they can fix anything. In this case with money...of course our money. Let's not forget our "Knights In Shining Armour" honestly think they can change the weather. As a long time good friend of mine mentioned a while back their next agenda will be to change gravity. It wouldn't surprise me. Sadly they come across as know-it-alls or legends in their own minds.

I realize it's difficult but let's forget about these wiseacres for a moment. You would expect during today's hardships businesses would go out of their way and cater to the consumer. In other words, provide top-notch customer service and quality products. A few weeks ago I encountered a stressful adventure.

My journey started at Walmart on Upper James Street in Hamilton, Ontario. My watch needed a battery. I can't live without a watch ticking away on my left wrist. Lately I haven't been a "big fan" of this store but I still like their prices. When I entered the big box enterprise (just out of curiosity) I decided to look at new watches, but was in total disbelief at what I saw. The once huge display section was now a measly shelf of a few watches with very little styles. I was dumbfounded. After a few minutes of disappointment I decided to buy a six dollar battery. I also chose to purchase some pens and Equate Metamucil. The multi-million dollar conglomerate was (as usual) sold out of those items. I was pissed off but the real annoyance and irritation was only about to begin.

As I approached the cash out area my anger started to escalate. Once again history was repeating itself. Only three-quarters of the checkouts were open and the aisles were five deep with patrons. I waited over fifteen minutes in line. A manager was standing at the end of my aisle observing the situation. I turned around and started to verbally display my displeasure to her including stating the store was going downhill fast. When I finished venting (it was no more than thirty seconds) the woman replied, "There's nothing I can do". When I returned home I attempted to install the battery into my watch but it was hopeless. I couldn't pop open the back of the watch and decided to visit a jewelry store.

Frustration appeared to be the word for the day. I walked into an established jewelry store located at the north end of a strip mall once called Mountain Plaza. The original mall was a terrific place to shop...it had a lot of specialty stores. However Walmart expanded and PRESTO the majority of shops vanished...only a very few survived. Anyway after waiting a couple of minutes a saleswoman approached me and asked, "Can I help you?"

I placed the battery on the glass counter and asked, "Will you install this battery into my watch?" Her reply was, "We only install our own batteries."

I was shocked and yelled, "YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME! WHAT IS GOING ON IN THIS COUNTRY?" In an irritated voice I asked her, "How much are your batteries?"

She answered, "Twelve dollars."

Now I was ready to go ballistic but somehow I left the store in silence but my blood pressure was in overdrive. I couldn't believe what had just happened and thinking where the fuck is the customer service.

Later on I laughed and thought the sales clerk is a very stupid, stupid woman. A complete and total idiot. She could've made some money but instead decided to be a moron. I was under the impression a lot of businesses were struggling because of the Wuhan Flu (maybe I should call it Covid-19) obviously not this joint. Either way if this alleged business does go "tits-up" all I can say is "Oh well. Serves you right."

My EA (Executive Assistant) and I bought a new washing machine. We discovered another prime example of less quality and customer service. First of all, the hot and cold water hoses cost extra...I kid you not. Secondly the complete owner's manual would be located online not in the customary booklet attached to the appliance.

One more bitch and I'll be out of your hair. I use to purchase some of my clothes at Marks Work Warehouse, specifically long and short sleeve tee-shirts. The material use to be a superior and high quality 1oo% cotton. Now the fabric is still 100% cotton but thin and cheaper. It's safe to say they joined the new infested group called, "Not give a shit about quality anymore."

Epilogue

Welcome to our new world where quality and various customer services are plunging downhill at an alarming rate. Merit and virtue seem to be things of the past. As the lyrics in the 1967 song, "Live For Life" sung by Jack Jones state "Yesterday's a memory (gone for good, forever) and tomorrow is a guess" are very true. As usual businesses and companies thrive on the almighty dollar. What's ahead for the consumer...tomorrow is a guess. Maybe sooner or later when individuals purchase a new home it won't have a furnace...they'll have to buy the unit separately. However it's very relieving to know not everything changes. Politicians make sure of that by always raising our taxes.

You Be The Judge

I'm confused. Really, really confused. Adam Gilchrist (1971-)

Prelude

Life is full of uncertainty and most of the time is a very puzzling place. Of course government and media work in cahoots to amplify certain current events. A quote by Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860) makes total sense of my statement. "Exaggeration of every kind is as essential to journalism as it is to dramatic art, for the object of journalism is to make events go as far as possible." That paragraph is extremely realistic. Why not "play up" the story? The populace, will, without a doubt become more fascinated and interested. It's human nature. Individuals don't want dull and boring news. They want exciting and stimulating features. If the truth has to be stretched so be it. With regard to government they possess very unique and various tactics. One of their schemes is confusion.

First of all let me say the Wuhan Flu (or as other folks call it Covid-19) is for real. There is no doubt in my mind it has invaded the world. Where it came from, well, I think all eyes look at China but we'll never know. Anyway at times how serious is this virus in Ontario. We've seen a lot of smoke and mirrors from our governments since day one of this flu. Now hold on. Before you want my head on a platter hear me out. Unquestionably it's very sad people have died from this disease. I don't wish that on anyone. Nevertheless let's take a look at a few facts.

On Jan.21/21 I travelled to Staples because I needed writing paper. They stated online they were open for in store shopping but when I attempted to enter the premises I was refused admission. The staff member told me only curbside pickup was authorized. In spite of that I watched three people walk into the premises. When I asked the employee about the three individuals he said Staples was permitting customers to drop-off shipping items for Purolator and FedEx. Meanwhile, moments before I walked into the L.C.B.O. (Liquor Control Board of Ontario) and bought a bottle of Cherry Brandy without any problems. I'm very confused.

We always hear about this new phrase called social distancing. Does anyone actually partake in keeping six feet away from each other. Certainly not in the grocery stores where I shop. All the "experts" including politicians stress that rule but very few people abide by the regulation. Since I'm on that topic, what about NHL (National Hockey League) players. When and where does social distancing play into this game. Players are packed in their respective benches next to each other. At the end of the game the winning team will congratulate their goaltender. The distance is so close they could kiss each other. I also read that teams will be allowed to dine in restaurants together as one big group. I'm very confused.

To continue my puzzlement, I read an article in Global News on Jan.28/21 that 6.3 million travellers have entered Canada and no one was ordered to be quarantined. According to the Toronto Sun some passengers have flown into Toronto from places such as India or Nigeria to visit family or pursue an education and are free as the wind with no stipulations. A lady from India was quoted, "I didn't have a test but "they" took my number." The woman's 14 day quarantine policy was on the honour system. Ontario Premier Doug Ford wanted tighter restrictions for Pearson Airport but our "beloved" Trudeau who "manages" the country ignored his request. Once again I'm very confused.

Speaking of politicians, they and some high ranking officials decided to pay no attention to the advice of their government who preached it wasn't safe to travel and stay at home. Maybe these "special" humans are immune to the virus. People like that who sit high and mighty should be showing an example but then again how serious is this problem. I'm very confused.

I've always thought Stats Canada contains some fictitious data. It's quite comical how they produce the game "Fun With Figures". That gang amazes me how they can manipulate and have us believing one plus one equals three. I wonder if the daily Covid-19 information board is similar to the way Statistics Canada conducts their totals. How do these human calculators arrive at outrageous numbers. I'm talking about the write-up in CP24 news on Nov.12/20. These people projected 3500 new Covid-19 cases by Nov.22/20 and would exceed by 6500 cases by mid December 2020 in Ontario. What evidence do they have? Do they look into a crystal ball and predict this turmoil? Or maybe they want to continue to install fear, terror and paranoia into a lot of citizens. Either way, I'm very confused.

Speaking of "Fun With Figures" a good friend of ours mentioned to my E.A. (Executive Assistant) and myself a couple of mind-blowing stories. His father was filled with the dreaded C word (yes, Cancer) and recently died. R.I.P. Now get this. The authorities officially declared his death was due to Covid-19. The second feature is just as corrupt and dishonest as the first one. He also stated a friend waited in line for a Covid-19 test. After three hours his buddy decided to leave without undergoing the test. A day or two later he received a phone call from the Health Department stating he tested positive for Covid-19. Talk about a clear-cut case of fraudulence. But once again, I'm very confused.

A good friend of mine sent me an interesting email a couple months ago. It was a graph from the Government of Canada Fluwatch. "Oddly" it showed there were only 41 actual flu cases in Canada (yes in Canada not just Ontario) from Nov.29/20 to Dec.5/20. It was a drop of 98.7% from the six year average. Would our trusting government be padding the Covid-19 numbers with our yearly flu cases to increase the quantity? Is it more Fun With Figures? Would our ethical government actually do such an underhanded thing like that? I'm very confused.

The same friend who sent me the Fluwatch graph also forwarded an article from the Summit News which was published on Nov.18/20. The write-up was titled, "Top Pathologist Claims Coronavirus Is The Greatest Hoax Ever Perpetrated On An Unsuspecting Public." Dr. Roger Hodkinson was addressing government officials in Alberta. He stressed that the Covid-19 was utterly unfounded pubic hysteria driven by the media and politicians. He also mentioned nothing could be done to stop the spread of the virus except trying to protect older and vulnerable people. It's politics playing medicine. Dr. Hodkinson also said social distancing and masks are useless. Very interesting points he makes.

Some Medical experts are now claiming a possible third wave variant of the virus is going to join us while most of Canada is no longer under lockdown. Are the medical people completely truthful about that statement? Or are they and the media once again attempting to place more mayhem into society? If they are honest and factual why is the government starting to open up everything? Furthermore I continue to see T.V. commercials telling everyone the Covid-19 virus is deadly and everyone should stay at home until they receive the vaccine. I'm very confused.

Epilogue

It's been a hell of a ride with this flu and yes at times I ponder if it's been overplayed. Politics and media can be a depressing combination. I'm the first to admit the newspaper articles I've used for this rant could be exaggerated. Like the rest of us I hope this flu will disappear forever. However I'm still very confused.
