How your DNA is being used against you

:...The CDC's Traveler-based Genomic Surveillance Program isn't about health & safety, it's about feeding your DNA to the Vast Machine.
A study demonstrated that scientists could recover medical and ancestry information from minute fragments of human DNA lingering in the environment. DNA of specific individuals can be recovered from spaces such as office buildings, apartment buildings, airports, restaurants.
Recently, researchers descended on the small town of St. Augustine, Florida and, from a “soda-can-size sample of water from a creek”, recovered “enough mitochondrial DNA — passed directly from mother to child for thousands of generations — to generate a snapshot of the genetic ancestry of the population around the creek…. One mitochondrial sample was even complete enough to meet the requirements for the federal missing persons database. They also found key mutations shown to carry a higher risk of diabetes, cardiac issues or several eye diseases”.
Scientists assure us that such eDNA samples will only be used for good by helping to predict pandemics, or uncovering mutations that cause a disease within a community.

NEWS: Lawyer Shawn Buckley from Natural Health Product Protection Association (NHPPA) fights against Health Canada attack on Natural Health Products
WILLIAM MAKIS NOV 1

Right now, Health Canada is quietly moving to reclassify natural health products (vitamins, minerals, herbal remedies, traditional medicines, etc.) as if they were pharmaceutical drugs — giving the agency sweeping new powers to impose massive compliance fees, fines, and criminal penalties that could wipe out small and mid-sized producers.

This isn’t just a Canadian issue.
It’s a testing ground for a global regulatory model that could soon spread to the United States, the UK, and Europe — centralizing control over natural and alternative health options under the banner of “safety.”

To raise awareness, NHPPA is on a cross-Canada “Health Charter Tour” (Oct 4–25, 2025) — driving a classic VW van from Victoria to Ottawa to deliver over 150,000 physical petition signatures to Parliament.
Along the way, ...
