My Opinion

Live or die.

If you are a Canadian, this matters to YOU.

The Canadian government is introducing a proposed law, Bill C-51, that will ultimately remove 60% of all natural health products in Canada. It imposes strict regulations on these safe, alternative solutions, and pushes all health treatments increasingly towards the giant pharmaceutical companies. This is not an issue of whether or not you use alternative health products. It is about your own personal freedoms. This bill does more than just regulation; it also gives the government health inspectors the right to:

— enter your private property without a warrant
— take your property at their discretion
— destroy of your property at their will
— not reimburse you for your losses
— seize your bank accounts
— charge you for shipping and storage charges for your seized property
— store your property indefinitely
— fines of up to $5,000,000 and/or seek 2 years in jail per incident

Under the new law the State can seize without a reason, without a warrant, without limits to what can be seized, without a time limitation, and without reporting the seizure to a Court.

Oh. Did I mention that if you recommended an alternative health idea to a friend or family member (say, recommending that they used crushed garlic for their illness, and giving some to them), you could get jailed and fined 5 million dollars? Not a single person has ever died from using natural health products in Canada. This is not about the safety of Canadians, this is about lobbyists and massive pharmaceutical companies that want to make money. These companies exploit people’s health, and drive new drugs on the market.

This is a gross misuse of government power, and a push by drug company lobbyists, which already make billions a dollars a year exploiting Canadians. Call your MP today, and join the up coming rallies.

Strings.

It took me 5 hours and 23 minutes of pain, frustration, and anger to change my guitar strings. Probably the one of the most horrifying experiences of the month.

Quarters.

The truth is often not so well defined.

Ever had the feeling that something could go wrong? You’re probably right.

My Opinion

Lest we forget.

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields. — John McCrae

Remember to never forget.
