The missing FIRST RUNGS of the Ladder

Answers to questions from those now hearing what the media kept quiet
It’s January 2024 - FOUR years after some of us started following the Covid science back in 2020. And now, finally, some people are starting to notice that all is not well with the Covid narrative they have been hearing nearly non-stop all this time.

IF they turn to us, we who have been following the science this whole time have a veritable library of information in our heads, it is hard to know where to start sharing. We might start with “we all know that the vaccines are not safe and not effective” but to someone new to the information, this jump is too large.

Report finds Alberta’s $53.6 billion net contribution to CPP far exceeds other provinces

Albertans have contributed significantly more to the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) than they have received in benefit s— over six times as much as any other province — according to a new report from the Fraser Institute.

From 1981 to 2022, Alberta's net contribution totaled $53.6 billion.

The report highlights that Alberta workers, on average, paid 14.4% of total CPP premiums while retirees in the province received only 10.0% of the payments.

The only other province to contribute more than it received was British Columbia, but Alberta’s contribution was six times higher.

"Albertan workers have been helping to fund the retirement of Canadians from coast to coast for decades, and Canadians ought to know that without Alberta, the Canada Pension Plan would look much different," said Tegan Hill, director of Alberta policy at the Fraser Institute and co-author of the report.

A Look Back in History with New Eyes.

The Alberta that I Know and love and adopted as my new home over five decades ago is not like the rest of Canada.

When I came to Calgary, and when I went to the Calgary Stampede the local aboriginal population were featured in the parade and highly respected. Calgary has named major thoroughfares after native leaders.

But that's not all. John Ware (Black for you who discriminate by skin) was highly respected in Alberta Legacy. Like so many Albertans he had escaped tyranny and made a life for himself and his family. There was Alberta.

And, that was the Calgary and the Alberta that I came here to know and love.

I'm not a city boy so I lived far out in the country and my neighbors were European immigrants and refugees, making good here in Alberta, after running away from the same kind of deadly silliness we're seeing now coming to our shores.

The 88 Olympics was exceptional in the community involvement, and everyone gave without any thought of ...

This is exactly the sentiment I felt when Carney entered the picture as an advisor to Trudeau. My gut starting feeling really sick when he was running for leader of the Liberal party and it got even worse when he became PM! The Liberal will lie and manipulate to make sure Carney gets a mandate from Canadians. If he does we will be a communist country. Other countries look as Canada as already being communist. Montana is looking good to me right now!
