Narcissus's Fruitless & Unhappy End

In Greek mythology, Narcissus was a handsome youth who one day happened to see his own reflection in a pool of water and fell in love with himself. Naturally the relationship produced nothing. Unable to pull himself away from the pool, Narcissus eventually died of thirst and starvation.

I thought of Narcissus’s fruitless and unhappy end when I saw the news that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced his resignation today. Since becoming prime minister in 2015, Trudeau has embraced trendy globalist policies such as a carbon tax, mass immigration to Canada, and a COVID-19 vaccine mandate. When Canadian truckers protested the mandate in Ottawa in 2022, Trudeau invoked the Emergencies Act and froze their bank accounts.

Their New Social Media Ban Means Every Canadian Must Show Government ID To Access Their Accounts

They call it a social media ban to protect your kids.

Here's what it actually means — every Canadian will be forced to show government approved ID to access their social media accounts. Your real name. Attached to every account. Given directly to the platforms.

And when you connect that to Bill C-22 which forces telecoms to retain your metadata without a warrant, Bill C-9 which criminalizes hate speech, Bill C-8 which gives the government the power to cut your internet access, and the soon to be retabled Bill C-63 — you start to see the full picture.

This isn't about protecting your kids. It's about building the infrastructure to control what every Canadian can say online.

I did a full breakdown of exactly how these four bills work together and what it means for every Canadian.
