Grassroots UCP vaccine safety townhall deplatformed by Eventbrite

The Calgary-Lougheed Constituency Association’s President Darrell Komick shared that the event will proceed and alternative ticket arrangements are already in the works.

The United Conservative Party’s Calgary-Lougheed Constituency Association’s “An Injection of Truth Townhall”, is set to take place next month on June 17, despite being deplatformed by Eventbrite.

This grassroots event is set to host Dr. David J. Speicher, Dr. Eric Payne, Dr. William Makis, Dr. Chris Shoemaker, Dr. Jessica Rose, Dr. Byram W. Bridle and other medical professionals while exploring the latest vaccine data, victim statements and potential adverse vaccine impacts on children.

While censorship of vaccine criticism was sadly commonplace throughout the pandemic — both by big tech companies and within the medical profession — the idea that an event can be still be deplatformed for daring to look at clinical evidence or discuss peer-reviewed research that is critical of vaccines should be unsettling to Canadians.

The Government of Canada itself, who under Justin Trudeau vilified the unvaccinated, recently expanded the budget of their Vaccine Injury Support Program. Furthermore, a great deal of what as been labelled medical misinformation over the last few years has proven time and time again to be have been medical fact all along.

I was joined by the Calgary-Lougheed Constituency Association’s President Darrell Komick, who is helping organize the event, to discuss the deplatforming and the continued efforts of many to stifle any conversation on vaccine safety.

In light of criticism and pressure being directed towards Alberta’s government as a result of this event, Komick explained that while this townhall is being hosted by a UCP constituency association, it is a grassroots initiative organized by the local association and not one officially endorsed by the party at large. He also pointed out that this is just one of many townhalls they put on a wide variety of topics.

A prior event hosted by the same UCP constituency association entitled “Let Kids Be Kids”, that featured conversations about parental rights in Alberta, recently faced cancellation pressure by progressive activists. So I asked Komick if this event's deplatforming was a consequence of activist pressure or simply an internal decision at Eventbrite.

We also discussed the broader concern posed by politically or ideologically motivated deplatforming and how it can undermine people’s capacity to gather and exchange ideas freely. Komick shared that the event will proceed and alternative ticket arrangements are already in the works. He added that while he is disappointed by Eventbrite, he will simply work with ticket sellers who appreciate his business.

Many have tried to forget about the Covid-19 years and move on, but for those dealing with vaccine injuries and those who tried to warn them about the potential dangers and were silenced, events like this are critical to ensure medical professionals are not censored next time around

New report denounces Havana and claims ‘campaign of subversion’ has infiltrated highest levels of US government

"...There is overwhelming evidence that the machinery of the Cuban Government has been progressively organized around… a fundamental hatred of the United States,” the report stated. “Many of the most significant upheavals in recent American political history —from the George Floyd riots to the rise of Antifa to the explosion of pro-terrorist activism on American college campuses— can be linked, in some way, shape, or form to Cuban influence.”

The report doesn’t just hand-wave. It names names. It details how the Venceremos Brigade and other “revolutionary tourism” programs have funneled thousands of American activists to Havana for ideological (and sometimes literal) weapons training.

The Venceremos Brigade has brought 10,000 American activists to Cuba since 1969. This is because nothing says “I am fighting for the oppressed working class” quite ...

This guy says it all I fear….

Now there is a plan! Of course dumb Canadians will not have the courage to vote with their brains, instead of their propagandized feelings of fear.

Canada’s economy is stalling badly.

We just endured the worst decade for real GDP growth per person since the Great Depression.

Over the past ten years, real GDP per capita limped along at an average of just 0.6% annually.

And Bloomberg’s consensus forecast for 2026? A paltry 0.7%.

Why does GDP matter?

Because family disposable income follows GDP like a shadow. Anemic economic growth resulting from lower investment means stagnant wages. Period.

The Liberals and fake Conservatives won't fix this.

The People's Party has a comprehensive plan to unleash private investment, supercharge productivity, and put more money back into your pocket:

Make the Accelerated Capital Cost Allowance (ACCA) permanent – Let businesses write off capital investments rapidly and skyrocket cash flow.
End Corporate Welfare – Zero subsidies. Zero bailouts. Zero regional ...
