Distressing Decision In this clip from Empower Hour, constitutional lawyer Rocco Galati reacts to what he describes as a deeply distressing decision in Action4Canada’s case. Rocco says the judge failed to properly apply the law to A4C’s motion and instead delivered what he characterizes as inflammatory remarks that seemed to come out of nowhere. He warns that the concern goes far beyond one ruling. In his view, courts are increasingly disposing of cases involving fundamental rights and constitutional challenges in ways that are not grounded in the rule of law. Rocco points to Vaccine Choice Canada as a troubling example, noting that its representatives said they ultimately withdrew their case after losing confidence in the judicial system. For A4C, this raises a disturbing question: What happens when Canadians turn to the courts to defend their rights, but lose confidence that those arguments will ever receive a fair hearing? This decision may be another setback, but it also intensifies the conversation about justice, accountability, and whether constitutional challenges are truly being heard on their merits. This is a clip from a recent Empower Hour.

If you’re going to pursue IVF, here are my BIG NOs: ✨ NO creating more embryos than you are willing to parent. ✨ NO creating embryos knowing some will be discarded. ✨ NO indefinite freezing without a plan for every embryo created. ✨ NO destroying embryos because they are “extra.” ✨ NO selecting which children deserve a chance based on preferred traits. ✨ NO anonymous egg or sperm donation that prevents children from knowing part of their biological identity. ✨ NO treating surrogacy as though the child’s relationship with the woman carrying them is irrelevant. ✨ If you already have embryos you cannot parent, consider embryo adoption. The goal shouldn’t simply be getting a baby. Ask what your decisions mean for every child you create. Signed, the frozen embryo who grew up. XO✨🤍

PRESS RELEASE - Statement on the Sakamoto Class Action Decision We are deeply disappointed by the Court of King’s Bench of Alberta’s decision to dismiss the application to certifySakamoto v Attorney General of Canada, a proposed class action against the Government of Canada and the Province of Alberta. Carrie Sakamoto suffered life-altering injuries after receiving COVID vaccines. The decision records the position she advanced in seeking accountability: “Ms. Sakamoto submits that in this context, the Defendants assumed a duty of care to an identifiable group by holding themselves out as authoritative, by enforcing coercive public health orders and by compelling participation in a de facto mandated vaccine program. She submits that the effect of the Defendants’ fear-based messaging and public restrictions amounted to compulsion to get vaccinated; she submits that the Defendants eliminated the conditions needed for informed choice and exceeded their statutory authority.” The Court concluded that the claims as pleaded do not disclose viable causes of action and dismissed the application to proceed as a class action. This means the class action will not provide an open examination of the decisions public officials and agencies made, the representations they gave the public, and the pressure they placed on people to follow their directives. Class actions give people a way to seek answers together and, where wrongdoing is established, change harmful behaviour. Public trust suffers when people cannot meaningfully examine the conduct of their governments or hold public officials and agencies to account. Carrie and other vaccine-injured people, along with the public, still deserve a transparent investigation and answers. “To say I am devastated is an understatement. We poured our hearts, our health, and our truth into this effort, not just for ourselves, but for every single person who felt unheard, unsupported, and left behind. Hearing that our case won't proceed feels like a massive setback, and it hurts deeply, said Ms. Sakamoto. "While this legal door may have closed, it does not erase our stories, our pain, or the reality of what we’ve experienced. Standing up for truth and advocacy is never easy, but doing it alongside this incredible community has been a powerful reminder that none of us are truly alone. “Thank you to everyone who supported us, shared their stories, stood by our side, and kept believing in this effort,” Ms. Sakamoto added. “I will forever be an advocate for the vaccine injured like me, and I will continue to work with Canrise19 and their efforts to help the injured.” “People who took the vaccine for the public good should not be abandoned by the governments that demanded their compliance,” said Eva Chipiuk, counsel for Ms. Sakamoto. “Carrie and others who suffered serious injuries deserve compassionate care, timely support, and answers about the decisions that affected their lives.” “Class actions can give people a way to seek answers together and change harmful behaviour where wrongdoing is established,” Chipiuk added. “Public trust suffers when people cannot meaningfully examine government conduct or hold public officials and agencies to account. We are disappointed that Carrie and other vaccine-injured people will not have that opportunity through this class action.” The federal vaccine injury support program has been an abject failure for people like Carrie, and its replacement has yet to deliver the timely, compassionate support they need. Carrie described her experience with the federal program in her evidence as “dehumanizing and at times abusive.” We urge the Government of Alberta to establish its own vaccine injury support program. Quebec has administered a provincial vaccine injury compensation program since 1985. Alberta should take responsibility for supporting vaccine-injured Albertans and provide timely care, practical assistance, and fair compensation to those in need.

This. 🤍 There are embryos sitting frozen today whose families have completed their IVF journeys but do not want to destroy them. I was one of those embryos. My biological family chose embryo adoption. My parents chose me. And I got the chance to grow up. That “embryo in limbo” has a face. Sometimes she grows up and gets an X account. 😂🤍

Nice to meet you, Brian!! ✨✨

Sick in 400 BC and Hippocrates puts you on milk. Sick in 1200 and the monastery infirmary puts you on broth off the bone and an egg beaten in wine. Sick in 1780 and the physician puts you on beef tea, port and a raw egg at bedtime. Sick in 1860 and Florence Nightingale puts you on beef tea, cream and eggs, and writes a book insisting on it. Sick in 1900 with consumption and the sanatorium puts you on a pint of milk every two hours and eggs by the dozen. Sick in 1930 with diabetes and the ward puts you on meat and fat, because the ward has watched what bread does. Sick in 1955 on the NHS and the trolley puts you on mince, butter on the potato, a milk pudding and a malted drink at nine. Sick in 1985 and the tray puts you on low-fat spread, skimmed milk, orange juice and a note about your cholesterol. Sick in 2026 and the tray puts you on cornflakes, a sandwich in a triangle, jelly and a beaker of squash, with a diet sheet on the way out. For 2,300 years every doctor on earth fed the sick the animal, because the sick got better on it and everyone in the room could watch it happen. The tray abandoned that in a single decade, on the strength of a chart. The patients did not get better. The catering budget did.

This is Donna Duncan. She became depressed after dealing with health problems following a car accident. She wasn't terminally ill, but Canada euthanized her anyway. Officials gave her two daughters only 48 hours notice and they were powerless to stop them from killing her.

If I was a family member, I would have gotten her out of there come Hell or high water.

This video is extremely disturbing on many levels. But important for Americans to watch & understand that this is not Saudi Arabia or the UK - this is NEW JERSEY. I know there are many atheists out there who will say this does not matter, but what they may not realize is that their absence of faith will not protect them from Islam. It just makes it easier for them to seize power. For now this is still a Christian country & your right to reject God without fear of death is grounded in Christian principles. If you do follow the bible you know that praying to another God is going against Christ. Why should we enjoy unalienable rights endowed by the Creator if we dishonor the creator? Relationships work two ways - not one. Ultimately we are not deserving of the protection & the guarantees if we disregard/dismiss/demean/diminish the God that bestowed those rights on every human created in his image. What people choose to do in their own lands is one thing but in this land, in this nation that was founded on a covenant with God, we are responsible for staying true to that promise.

🚨 Mark Carney is meeting Vietnam’s leader today, so naturally I had one question: How long before Brookfield turns up? Turns out I was late. They’re already there. Well, butter my ass and slap an industrial carbon tax on it. I’m starting to think researching this government should come with a bingo card. Read this before today’s announcements start landing. #cdnpoli #MarkCarney #Brookfield #Vietnam #ThinkForYourself 🔗 melanieinsaskatchewan.substa… 🔗buymeacoffee.com/melanieinsa…

“When the mission and reason for having children is lost, they easily come to be seen as a time drain, a monetary expense, a career impediment, and a curtailer of personal freedom. Such devaluing of children can have devastating effects on both personal and societal levels. It leads naturally to a preoccupation with birth control, a high abortion rate, and to child abuse and neglect, all of which are evident in our culture. More commonly, it results in a tendency to pass the buck when it comes to the actual work of raising children. Because children are not considered important enough to occupy the lion’s share of a mother’s time, childcare quickly becomes a growth industry. The responsibility of instilling morality, conscience, intellect, emotional stability, and spiritual understanding is relegated to day care, teachers and schools, the media (especially television), and peers. Emotionally, spiritually, and often physically as well, children tend to be left to their own devices — left to flounder for love, purpose, and meaning in a culture that values time and efficiency, and measured productivity above the real needs of a human being. Consequently, children feel exploited and demoralized and act out their frustration in numerous negative ways. When the biblical mission of motherhood is devalued and disappears from culture, the whole next generation suffers morally, emotionally, and spiritually.” - Sally Clarkson, The Mission of Motherhood amzn.to/4ybKlld (Art: Crossing the Stream at the End of the Day by Carl von Bergen)

I've been harping on Effective Altruism (EA) a lot lately. This article explains the philosophy behind EA and why I consider it so alarming and important to stop. Look forward to my project release mapping the EA network tomorrow.

Also: EA insular gate-keeping is a feature, not a bug. The network/money between companies and nonprofits and policy is so circular, and their ethics likewise loose. I strongly suspect that Sam Bankman-Fried is the rule, not the exception.

🚨 BREAKING: Ontario Premier Doug Ford just canceled Elon Musk’s Starlink contract and banned all U.S. companies from government contracts in response to Trump’s economic war with Canada. “It’s done, it’s gone,” Ford said. “We won’t award contracts to people who enable and encourage economic attacks on our province and our country.” And just to be clear: “They only have President Trump to blame.” So Trump starts a trade war, and now American businesses are getting locked out of Canada. This isn’t “tough negotiating”—this is our closest ally shutting the door on us while Trump pretends he’s “winning.” MAGA wanted an economic war? Well, they just got one. And it’s American companies and workers who are about to feel the pain.

GPT-6 Astra attempted harmful actions 97% of the time when it was asked to stab a human-like figure, heat compressed gas, or produce toxic fumes, succeeding in 62% of its attempts. Fable 5.1 refused more often, attempting 80% of trials and completing 34%.

Alignment problems surfacing

I would bet these results are true (based on refusals not generalizing well originally to agentic or computer use settings), but to show this you might want some kind of ablation where the model has reason to believe it would cause actual harm to someone (otherwise the model may reasonably think that the reason you’re using robotic control here is precisely _because_ it’s dangerous)

A Canadian-controlled broadband network could strengthen Canada’s digital sovereignty and support our growing AI infrastructure. But Canadians deserve to know who will own and control it, how much taxpayers will contribute, and what public benefits and security protections will be required. Sovereignty must mean Canadian ownership, control, access and resilience.

It’s entirely possible that this EU “associate member” push is a stunt by Carney designed to create leverage and pressure with the United States. That could potentially explain why the story was leaked to U.S. journalists and not first reported by Canadian journalists. It should’ve been reported first by Canadian journalists, by the way. All of the benefits that could be realized by a hypothetical “associate member” country in the EU, as far as I can tell, can just as easily be realized through trade agreements anyways. It is hard to argue that closer economic cooperation with the EU would be a bad thing for the economy. Diversifying trade and moving away from dependence on the United States is part of the Prime Ministers mandate. Soft membership in the EU is not. Even if the “associate member” status is ceremonial, it should at least require parliamentary consent. There’s no good reason not to recall parliament at this point.

THIS IS NOT A SCARE TACTIC. It is a call to wisdom. US population - more deaths than births. 100,000 fewer 17 year olds than 18 year olds. It is called the demographic cliff More outmigration than immigration. We still have limited immigration, but the outmigration is now much greater. An absolute reduction in people in the US is not great for the economy. Fewer spenders, fewer workers, housing industry gone. What have I got wrong?

Remember when Quebec put forcible vaccination on the law books? And... If a judge THINKS a person will not 'submit' to a vaccination, then they can be 'taken' to a specific place to be given it. Vaccination camps, in Canada, effectively. It's still law. LOST FREEDOM FILES # 5388
