Excellent "Letter of the Day" (How to Commit National Suicide) .... in the National Post ... though it's extensive, it is also incomplete ... as the author left out Trudeau's crimes against humanity (carried out against the only population on Earth he governs: Canada's 🇨🇦), described by me as follows ...... Destroy the economy with lockdowns and other restrictions on a free peoples' movement and gathering, and by deeming some workers "nonessential", destroying their livelihood, impoverishing them, unhousing hundreds of thousands, possibly millions, and increasing hopelessness and despair, food bank visits, drug use and suicide throughout the land 🇨🇦. Restrict free speech and peaceful assembly, and jail political opponents in the process (& in the aftermath). As well, devastate small businesses, all while applying divisive, hate-filled, rhetoric and legalized, anti-scientific, segregation (ie. travel restrictions, no jab no job policies) to ease irrationally overblown fears, stoked, in large part, for political gain.

It serves as a reminder that the struggles faced by the heroes were not confined to a specific area but affected the entire nation. The celebration transcends geographical boundaries, fostering a sense of camaraderie and shared responsibility among Filipinos. In a world where historical narratives can sometimes be forgotten or overshadowed, the observance of Philippine National Heroes Day serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by those who paved the way for the nation's prosperity.

Concerns about the so called "Safe Supply Drug" Program in BC: 1️⃣ Toxicity of unregulated drug market remains unaddressed. 2️⃣ Overdose deaths have not decreased, with 2,224 in BC in 2021. 3️⃣ Public safety is at risk with increased public drug use. 4️⃣ Lack of support services perpetuates addiction cycle. BC NDP/Liberal Premier David Eby's recent plans to recriminalize public drug use shows a shift in government stance. Due to his lack of support in the polls , his about face looks like its purely out of self interest & self preservation. Drastic measures for identifying & addressing root causes of addiction, ensuring public safety, and providing support services is needed. Let’s work together and oust the NDP/Liberal government coalition from BC and tell them NO MORE so called "Safe Supply" paid for by tax payers and recriminalize hard drugs. We need to tell the NDP/LIBERAL's to Stop poisoning our community, secondly stop acting like you didn't create the problem. Jagmeet Singh is POISONING our province and our country by supporting the Liberals. He can put a vote of no confidence at any given time, but instead he chooses to flood British Colombia with Hard Drugs to poison British Colombians.
