The Canadian Air Transport Security Authority humiliates An 82 Year Old Woman

Elizabeth Strecker of Abbotsford British Columbia did what many Canadians do around the Holiday season, she did some traveling to spend time with her family.

On January 4th 2011 she was at the Calgary airport for her return flight back to Abbotsford. The airport security asked her to go threw the full body scanner and she complied. But there was a problem.

Elizabeth Strecker is a cancer survivor and wears a prosthetic breast. Which showed up on the scan. A security guard then asked her to raise her arms (something that she cannot comfortably do with her left arm since the surgery). According to Strecker: "The arm is full of fluid. I don't know why but it doesn't drain and is very painful." But security did not want to listen to that and insisted that she raise her arms.

She then used her right arm to lift the left one. But it was so painful that I cried, she said. With many people around it was quite an humiliating experience.

Are we all so full of fear that this kind of practice has become acceptable? Not only to put and 82 year old cancer survivor threw an unsafe full body scanner, but to humiliate her and put her threw pain!

What has happened to common sense? Why would any airport security she this woman as a threat? Why are we just blindly following the patterns of the TSA in America? The TSA scans and does it's enhanced pat downs on everyone. Seniors, children, and everyday people.

Is this all really worth it? Is it keeping us Canadians safer or is it just humiliating and demoralizing everyday Canadians?

In B.C. Expect The Government To Be Knocking At Your Door If You Grow Your Own Vegetables!

Len Gratto and Stacy Gowanlock of Mission, British Columbia have both been slapped with $5,200 inspection fees after having having their homes inspected by government officials.

This is not only happening in Mission B.C., This inspection process is also happening in Surrey , Richmond, Coquitlam, Langley, Langley City, Abbotsford, Pitt Meadows, Chilliwack and Port Coquitlam. Between 2005 and 2009 these cities conducted 3,528 inspections.

Under the safety inspection programs, inspectors armed with B.C. Hydro statistics on abnormal energy consumption can enter private homes without warrant. Sounds kinda familiar doesn't it? (Bill C-36).

"The safety inspections came about as a result of concerns over grow-ops that pose electrical hazards from faulty wiring and the overloading of residential electrical circuits." Globe and Mail

Once again a bypass around section 8 of the Canadian Charter Of Rights And Freedoms (Everyone has the right to be secure against unreasonable search or seizure.).

Oh but don't worry, it is all just to keep you safe! A fire could happen if there is faulty wiring. That is all the government is concerned about.

In the case of Len Gratto, the officials hit the jackpot! He was guilty of growing cucumbers in his basement. And with Stacy Gowanlock, they just missed it! Only finding some dirt residue and some piping leading to the chimney. What criminals these Canadians are! How dare they grow their own food! The audacity of some people eh.

The fight against marijuana has hit an all new low with this. Government officials being given the power to enter and inspect the homes of Canadians without a warrant, with police waiting at the front door. All because it may not be cucumbers, it could be the evil marijuana.

And then even if the officials do not find anything illegal, they slap you with a huge fee for making them search your home.

After the G20, and Bill C-36 trampling all over our rights as Canadians, this is just another way our government wanted to show that they love us, and only want to keep us safe! Forget about your rights and freedoms Canadians, just trust the government!

They will keep you safe, and keep all of those bad people who like to grow their own food in check! We need our police state!

You Are What You Eat!

Twenty percent of Canadians will personally experience a mental illness during their lifetime. Although most mental illnesses begin during adolescence and young adulthood, people of all ages, cultures, educational and income levels experience mental illnesses.

Mental illnesses take many forms, including:

mood disorders, such as depression and bipolar disorder, which affect how one feels,
schizophrenia, which affects how one perceives the world,
anxiety disorders which affect how fearful one perceives places, events or situations to be;
personality disorders, which affect how one sees oneself in relation to others; and
eating disorders, such as anorexia or bulimia, which influence how one feels about food and one's body image.

Our chemical rich modern diet with large amounts of processed and packaged foods, saturated fats, artificial colors, flavors and preservatives and an excess of caffeine and alcohol radically changes our internal ecosystem. Considering then that ‘we are what we eat’ it is little wonder that the incidences of depression and mental illness are so widespread in our culture.


Many research studies are now concluding that eating processed foods and manufactured foods, can be related to the onset of depression. In Paul Zane Pilzer's book The Wellness Revolution he states: “It's the food supply that is causing depression and obesity in this country. It's all the refined ingredients that have their nutrition stripped away.” By eating de-natured foods we are not giving our brain the nutrients it needs to achieve a healthy and balanced mental state.

Why is it that people who pursue healthy diets tend to have a positive outlook and outstanding mental health? It's the foods...because the food we eat greatly affects our mental state, and if we eat healing foods, and foods rich in vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients, then we will have healthy mental function.

Hamilton Ontario's Bill C-36 Rally

On Saturday January the 8th 2011, the Canadian Awareness Network, Grasshopper Media, and We Are Change Brantford converged on Gore Park in downtown Hamilton.

Armed with fliers, DVD's, a megaphone, and the charterofhealthfreedom.org petition (available for download HERE)

We started out with the megaphone with speeches by Terry Wilson and Frank Gotz, and quickly got a great response. People began to come over and get information. We gave out countless DVD's, fliers, and spoke with many concerned Canadians who had never heard of the consumer product safety act, or Bill C-36.

Coupled with a rally by We Are Change Calgary, and a great clip on CHCH news by eart4all.net on Friday, we are getting the word out there!

CHCH news cip.


And this is just the beginning! With the NHPPA getting ready to start a campaign against this illegal law, we have no intentions of giving up. We are going to fight this thing right until the end! Once the Canadian people become aware of what this so called law is, the quicker we can have it repealed. It is a daunting task, but the future of our nation depends on it!

Video clips from the Hamilton Rally:

We the people of this great nation, are the only ones who can fix it! It is time to stop watching from the sidelines and take action.

Top 10 Ways To Naturally Dotxify Your Body

In this age that we live in, our bodies are exposed to hundreds if not thousands of toxins everyday. They come from the water and food that we consume, the beauty products we wear, all the way down to the air that we breathe.

It is extremely important to know how to remove them. You do not need to go out and buy expensive detox kits, or take any kind of medications to do so. You can detox your body naturally, with very little extra cost.

The health benefits of doing a detox are endless! Even though there are a lot of medical "professionals" who will tell you otherwise. Here is a small list of what detoxing can do for you:

* Purify liver, kidney and blood
* Eliminate years of built up internal waste
* Increase energy and focus
* Lose weight
* Ease chronic pain
* Look younger
* Boost immune system
* Cure high blood pressure
* Get rid of acne
* Simply feel fantastic

Ill start off with the method that I use (it is not included in the top 10 because it is one of the hardest ways, on your mind and body).

I start by taking kelp and activated charcoal supplements one week before (two of each everyday). At the end of that week, I do a water fast for 48 hours. Then break the water fast with a ginger, lemon, kale, and celery juice. I continue with vegetable juices for a three day juice fast. Using as large of a vegetable variety as possible. To break the juice fast I start to eat small amounts of vegetables, and then ease in some fruits and nuts. It is essential to have pure water, and 100% organic foods to do this.

This is the hardest method in my opinion because it really takes a toll on your body. You will feel like you have been hit by a truck! Your nose will constantly run, you will get severe headaches, feel very fatigued, and even feel some depression. But within days after finishing you will see a total reversal. You with feel clear, focused, and overall great!

That kind of an intense cleanse is recommended once a year. It is not an everyday thing.

Here is our top 10 ways to detoxify without having to go threw an intense program:

10. Eat plenty of fiber, including brown rice and organically-grown fresh fruits and vegetables. Beets, radishes, artichokes, cabbage, broccoli, spirulina, chlorella, and seaweed are excellent detoxifying foods.

9. Cleanse and protect the liver by taking herbs such as dandelion root, burdock and milk thistle, and drinking green tea.

8. Take vitamin C, which helps the body produce glutathione, a liver compound that drives away toxins.

7. Drink at least eight glasses of clean water everyday.

6. Breathe deeply to allow oxygen to circulate more completely through your system.

5. Transform stress by emphasizing positive emotions.

4. Practice hydrotherapy by taking a very hot shower for five minutes, allowing the water to run on your back. Follow with cold water for 30 seconds. Do this three times, and then get into bed for 30 minutes.

3. Sweat in a sauna so your body can eliminate wastes through perspiration.

2. Dry-brush your skin to remove toxins through your pores. Special brushes are available at natural products stores.

1. Exercise is the number one method to detox your system! Yoga, jogging, stair climbing, or any other cardio exercise works well.

These are all options that can be incorporated into your everyday life, with health benefits that are endless. You will not get sick as much ( helping to eliminate any of the so called need for dangerous vaccines), and you will have less of a chance of developing diseases like diabetes.

But even beyond that, you will feel amazing! Whenever I have spoke to a person who has done a detox, they cannot believe how great they feel! And swear by it!

Give it a shot people. What do you have to loose? Even if you do not enjoy the experience, you will not of lost anything. You will have only gained knowledge.

Video From The January 8 2011 Mass g20 Demonstration

We Canadians will never forget the weekend of June 26th and 27th 2010. It is "A weekend that will be remembered as a weekend of infamy" For Canada. We all need to stand in solidarity and fight against the tyranny's that this government seems to be content with, pushing on to the people of this great land.

We stand with our brothers and sisters in Toronto!



Video info:
WE "THE PEOPLE" DEMAND JUSTICE AND ACCOUNTABILITY-WE DEMAND A PUBLIC INQUIRY
The police and governments of Toronto, Ontario and Canada, have now proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that they THINK they can literally round up hundreds of citizens, gathered together to exercise their Charter rights to protest, for no legal or discernible reason-AND THAT WE THE PEOPLE OF TORONTO, ONTARIANS AND CANADIANS WILL SIMPLY STAND IDLY BY. The suspension of civil liberties-the snatching and grabbing of citizens off the streets, and throwing them in a cage, in many instances without access to legal counsel and in a few cases after being threatened or physically harmed by the police services. The arrested citizen then has to bear the cost of trying to defend themselves. If the police acted illegally where is the accountability? The citizens of this city again have to bear the cost of trying to prove that, and the public pays the damages-not one single person in government or the police agencies has been held accountable. So in fact, the police are totally and utterly unaccountable. The bureaucrats who made the decision to round up peaceful protesters, or just people walking down the street, are unaccountable. The politicians are also unaccountable, as apparently they have veto power over investigating themselves and apparently don't even have the guts to conduct any kind of investigation, instead some semblance of an investigation has to be conducted by the Ombudsman. Who the hell is accountable? So WE THE PEOPLE if the police can illegally detain Canadians without any kind of accountability or oversight, how is this in any functional way for the citizen, any different from a police state? Arbitrary arrests and detentions on the basis of secret laws that nobody knew about, with no accountability. That is the very definition of a POLICE STATE. WE THE PEOPLE are still absolutely appalled by what we saw on that weekend and shaken to the core by the hundreds of examples of police brutality that we witnessed and experienced and utterly disgusted by the silence and sheep like acquiescence from the people who are supposed to be representing all of us in Toronto and Ottawa.

Stephen Harper: Corporate tax cuts needed

While in Welland on Friday Mr. Harper was still pushing forward with the corporate tax cuts for all his buddies in the private sector.

Saying:

"We are gaining more revenue from the business sector by having low rates than we were by having high rates," Harper said. "This is in the interest of everybody and it's the direction we'll continue to go."

He also added that the latest job numbers that show full-time employment rose in Canada by 38,000 in December were "encouraging." But he again warned the global recovery is still fragile and "significant challenges" remain.

Source

Am I the only one to see that full time employment numbers rose in December because it was the holiday season? Most companies hire on almost double the staff, just to let them go, come January and February. It is called seasonal help.

Or how about the fact that in December of almost every year previous to the the corporate tax cuts and the "economic downturn", The full time job statistics were around double the 38,000.

Rewarding the corporations with tax cuts is not effective, nor is it working! The only thing that it is doing is making it harder for the little guys to compete. Clearing the market place for the mega corporations.

Take a look at this governments economic policies. Slam the average people with more taxes (H.S.T. , eco tax, and so on) and rewarding the big corporations with tax breaks. Sounds just great for the average Canadian does it not?

That CBC news article does not even touch on the fact that Mr. Harper dodged everyone who came out to see him. Some of the workers who have been locked out by U.S. steel in Hamilton, were there to speak to him. Some concerned Canadians wanted to let him know what they thought about the consumer product safety act, and he even dodged the children who were there to see him.

Here is the video titled: Stephen Harper makes children cry in Welland


So Mr. Harper wants to reward the big corporations, and not even let the Canadian people who are being effected by all these polices (not just the tax cuts) see him, never mind get a chance to speak to him.

Oh and Mr. Harper the Canadian people do not care about your "global recovery" We care about fixing Canada, and making it a country for and by the people. Not for and by the corporations!
