Comments Off on Trump, Bernier and a moratorium on immigration | Salim Mansur
Apr232020
President Donald Trump has issued an executive order limiting the issuance of green cards while the United States is recovering from the coronavirus and the resulting high rates of unemployment. Similarly, in Canada, Maxime Bernier of the People’s Party has called for a moratorium on the excessive immigration numbers proposed by Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government while the country experiences unemployment levels not seen since the great depression.
Salim Mansur of Western University agrees with the actions of Trump and Bernier and, in addition, calls for a free and open discussion on immigration levels, especially during these trying times.

According to CBC News (April 15/20), the Canadian federal government let it be known it was open to new laws to fight ‘pandemic misinformation.’
One instance cited was “the misinformation regarding conspiracy theories about what triggered the pandemic – claims that it was cooked up in a lab, for example.” Ironically, the growing evidence and consensus about the SARS CoV-2 virus is that it was indeed engineered in a lab, though theories of how it initially spread vary greatly.
Another example of ‘misinformation’ that the Canadian government wants to fight, are claims that the drug hydroxychloroquine has demonstrated itself to be effective at treating COVID-19. Again ironically, the growing evidence and consensus about hydroxychloroquine is that it is indeed very effective in treating the COVID-19. Continue reading »

Apr212020
As more data emerges it seems evident that various government responses to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic are bringing the world to economic collapse.
Salim Mansur of Western University says that President Donald Trump has the right idea by encouraging individual U.S. States to come out of lock-down as soon as is realistically possible based on their own particular situation. Such a reasoned response is not on the horizon for Canada, however, which sees an increased authoritative and centralized reaction to the crisis.

Comments Off on 650 – Omnipotent State—of emergency
Apr162020
US President Donald Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau are moving in opposite directions when it comes to ending the COVID-19 shut down.
“This will be the new normal until a vaccine is developed,” Trudeau was quoted saying in an April 11 National Post report. If so, that would mean a minimum of one to three years, given the usual best time in which a vaccine can be developed.
In contrast, Donald Trump says “I want to get it open as soon as we can; we have to get our country open.” With May 1 targeted as his primary re-opening date, Trump has also gone on record saying he would like to see parts of the country open up even sooner than that.
With COVID-19 statistics falling far short of expectations, and looking more like average or lower than average annual flu numbers, government officials in tandem with the medical profession are warning of a second or third wave, having apparently implied that we have already been through the first wave.

Comments Off on Two flew over the cuckoo’s nest | Salim Mansur
Apr112020
The current drastic measures to reduce the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus have people so much on edge that it is difficult to believe that we can come out of this unscathed psychologically and culturally.
Since 2001 most of us, especially those born since then, have become inured to a culture of surveillance but, with the current pandemic, we seem to be entering into an informant culture where everyone is suspected to be a possible bio-weapon.
Professor Salim Mansur likens our current predicament to Ken Kesey’s One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest with only a few of us realizing that we are in an institution for the insane.
This is a precarious time where the West’s very culture of individual freedom is in peril of being lost forever. Our situation is made all the worse since we are tacitly committing ourselves into an asylum of our own making.

Comments Off on 649 – Prescriptions for a police state in the battle against COVID-19
Apr092020
In dealing with the COVID-19 disease, it seems the most popular prescription has been the establishment of what amounts to a police state. Already, the necessary elements of a police state are firmly in place.
We have seen state-ordered shutdowns of economic activity and social assembly, the establishment of snitch lines, legal prohibitions regarding access to the commons, outrageous and unjust monetary fines and jail sentences for failing to ‘distance’, and propaganda campaigns based on dubious statistics and arguments. To say nothing of the unprecedented degree of government deficit spending.
What’s truly frightening is the delight that many in positions of power (and many in the public) are exhibiting with regard to keeping the shut down going for as long as possible.
That perhaps helps explain why the least popular prescription in dealing with COVID-19 is the prescription of drugs shown to be effective in actually treating the disease. And alarmingly, it’s beginning to look as if public health treatments sought to address the pandemic – like ventilators – may actually be another case of ‘the cure being worse than the disease.’
The grim projections regarding COVID-19 are falling far short of being realized. Yet our politicians persist with their destructive police state policies.
Consequently, we will shortly be facing truly grim projections, less about the still very low COVID-19 numbers, but more about the coming crisis caused by the political destruction of the global economy.
The question on everyone’s mind now is: Will things ever be Just Right again?

All political and cultural movements begin with an idea. In the case of globalism, that idea is Marxism.
The educators of the Western world over the past 75 or more years have, in various ways, made the ideas of Karl Marx part of the standard curricula of our public school systems and universities. The result is that we now have a population that is significantly illiterate, unable to reason, incapable of logic, ignorant of science, and unable to think independently.
Because of this dumbing down of the West people consequently find it easy to believe that CO2 is a pollutant, that Michael Bloomberg, who spent 500 million on his campaign, could have just given every American one million dollars, and that there are 63 genders.
Salim Mansur of Western University explains the process by which Marxists have, over a period of decades, infiltrated our academies of learning and altered them into institutions of globalist indoctrination and propaganda.
(In our discussion, Salim made note of a report by Stanley Kurtz of The National Association of Scholars. That report can be found here: https://www.nas.org/reports/the-lost-history-of-western-civilization.)
