WHO International Health Regulations
In a frantic last minute rush, modified IHR were illegally approved by the most recent World Health Assembly (#77)

A meeting of the World Health Assembly concluded Saturday June 01, 2024. This particular Assembly meeting, the first following the COVIDcrisis, failed to achieve agreement on wording or passage of a proposed World Health Organization (WHO) pandemic “treaty”, also referred to as an “agreement”. In parallel to the treaty, the World Health Assembly (in close cooperation with the US HHS/Biden administration) has been working on “updating” the existing (2005) International Health Regulations (IHR) agreement, which historically functioned as a voluntary accord establishing international norms for reporting, managing, and cooperating in matters relating to infectious diseases and infectious disease outbreaks (including “pandemics”).

In blatant disregard for established protocol and procedures, sweeping IHR amendments were prepared behind closed doors, and then both submitted for consideration and accepted by the World Health Assembly quite literally in the last moments of a meeting which stretched late into Saturday night, the last day of the meeting. Although the “Article 55” rules and regulations for amending the IHR explicitly require that “the text of any proposed amendment shall be communicated to all States Parties by the Director-General at least four months before the Health Assembly at which it is proposed for consideration”, the requirement of four months for review was disregarded in a rush to produce some tangible deliverable from the Assembly.

'If You Are Not a Liberal When You Are Young, You Have No Heart, and If You Are Not a Conservative When Old, You Have No Brain'

Alberta’s future belongs to Albertans—not Ottawa.

That’s Maxime Bernier’s message on his Alberta tour. He’s calling for radical decentralization: getting Ottawa out of provincial affairs and putting decisions back in the hands of the provinces — and closer to the people who live with the consequences.

MAX’S MESSAGE: OTTAWA, GET OUT OF PROVINCIAL AFFAIRS.

Tonight, Max makes his case live from Calgary, joined by Isaias Nolasco of New Generation PPC, Nadine Wellwood Autor of Alberta Rising, and Madison and MayCee Holmes, co-hosts of At Home with Holmes.
