May 3, 2016: Over the last six months, risks to global financial stability have risen, according to the International Monetary Fund’s April 2016 Global Financial Stability Report. In advanced economies, the outlook has deteriorated because of heightened uncertainty and setbacks to growth and confidence. Disruptions to global asset markets have added to these pressures. Declines in oil and commodity prices have kept risks elevated in emerging markets, while greater uncertainty about China’s growth transition has increased spillovers to global markets. These developments tightened financial conditions, reduced risk appetite, and raised credit risks, weighing on financial stability. The situation in markets appears significantly improved, but is the turmoil of the past months now safely behind us, or is it a warning signal that more needs to be done to secure financial stability? The IMF’s April 2016 GFSR addresses this key question and many others.

Gambling in amateur Sport ? CBC introduces gambling into its coverage of the Olympic games ? In a groundbreaking move and for the first time ever, CBC will include gambling in its live coverage of Olympic events ?
Paris Olympics 2024 - It appears that CBC has partnered with one particular online Casino company and BetRivers is running sports betting ads during the televising of Olympic sporting events ? Is the inclusion of a Casino and a Sports betting parlor that runs sports betting during Olympic events appropriate when considering the principles and high moral standard exemplified by the Olympic Games ?
Aug 22 2024, the Minister of hypocrisy, oops, I mean Minister of Health Mark Holland and his Liberal Government have passed legislation enabling unparallelled massive gambling in Canada ? And now we are seeing NHL heros past and present like Wayne Gretzky, Austin Matthews and Connor McDavid in TV gambling commercials, in online gambling ads, and profiles pasted onto huge billboards that promote gambling ? However, Holland has banned a help to quit smoking cessation product called Zonnic that helps one quit a bad habit and is currently sold only to those over 19 and always kept hidden away from view under the counter in stores proclaiming that, "All the stuff that's clearly designed to target youth — It's over ! "
Fans are confused ? After Mark Holland says he is protecting our youth from the Zonnic product that is used to quit a bad habit, meanwhile we are now watching as he does nothing while Superstar NHL heroes play starring roles in glamorous new betMGM ads that promote gambling ? After numerous complaints were filed about this from parents, they did ease away from the image of Sports heros that encourage and participate in the gambling vice but McDavid's image was never separated from gambling or the lucrative gambling industry but was instead relegated to n ow show Connor as the ambassador for safe gambling ? But isn't it still gambling ? see news article, "Connor McDavid's latest gambling ad with Bet MGM sparks outrage among his fans,"

What if they were to advertise a safe way to smoke cigarettes as a way to get more clients ? Sound ridiculous ? But is this not the same as the advertising of 'safe' gambling ? Don't safe gambling ads serve to welcome, endorse and normalize the practice of gambling which can be a dangerous and life altering highly addictive habit ?
May 25,2022 - The big gambling companies run ads to emphasize 'limited play' and 'safe' gambling ? Is this not the same as the alcohol industry running ads that encourage drinking alcohol by telling you how many cocktails to safely drink per day, or, how about the tobacco industry running ads that promote safe smoking by recommending an amount of cigs to safely smoke per day, or the marijuana industry recommending the number of joints to safely get high on each day ? Or, what if they spin : You're 'good' if you drink but You're 'great' if you safe drink, or, you're 'good' if you smoke cigarettes but You're 'great' if you safe smoke only so many cigarettes per day, or , you're 'good' if you smoke pot but you're 'great' if you only smoke this many grams per day ? ref, "All those sports betting ads you're seeing,, It's illegal says the Alberta gaming commission ? www.cbc.ca/player/play/2302654019728

U Ottawa Scotty suggests that the internet, mobile phones and the Social media are taking a heavy toll on the mental health and the overall mental well being of today's society ? And so maybe there's some hypocrisy shown by giant media mogul Bell Canada who just might be the biggest contributor and biggest profit taker from a national crisis ? www.youtube.com/shorts/31f3sZndK6w

London England, Apr 22,2026 - The British Parliament has enacted legislation that will install a form of Orwellian Totalitarian rule into the current democratic English society allowing for Government social control in the form of forced and mandatory lifetime probationary orders to be placed on selected unwary citizens without asking their permission who are then to be state monitored from birth to death to insure compliance is met on a legal lifetime probation order that has been attached to them for life ?

Jul 22, 2026 - In their ongoing quest for notoriety, the powers-that-be have ordered that cigarette packages be re engineered and re-designed not to make room for the addition of more product but instead to increase the showcase area size of the package cover ? The added space will be needed to accommodate a fresh new series of 13 upgraded ultra sickening pictures and warnings that are to be added to the existing 73 others that are already over-crowding the current package covers ? Dire messages will also be added to the extended upper flap inside cigarette packages says Karine LeBlanc.
Do these obsessed-with-one-product-only vain people really think that by continually satisfying their own self centered egos with a personal vendetta on one single product only that they don't happen to like and keep using the same old worn out idea over and over again while ignoring and hiding the thousands of other possible causes of cancer that they are really actually helping to find the cure for cancer ?

Wolf Wolfensberger was born in Germany and immigrated to the United States in 1950. He received his Ph D. in psychology with a specialization in mental retardation at what is now known as Vanderbilt University. Wolfensberger has been a professor at the School for Education at Syracuse University since 1973. An advocate and the creator of programs for the deinstitutionalization of the developmentally disabled, he has been credited with the term "Citizen Advocacy." Programs include the theory of Social Role Valorization and Normalization among others. Social Role Valorization attempts to explain (and prevent) how some people who are "socially devalued" in some way (perhaps because of such conditions as being old, disabled, mentally ill or poor) are excluded from valued social roles that form the basis of our participation in ordinary community life. His theory on normalization is based on the principle that people will behave "normally" when they are placed into "normal" settings. He has also worked in child assessment, working with families in planning their disabled child's future including education.
