Lost in Space________Episode # 1_______Death to Deniers !

 

Danger - Will Robinson, Danger !

 

These fine ladies want prison sentences handed down to individuals who dare to be themselves and to think differently from them calling anyone with a different opinion from theirs to be a denier or a hater ?

No one can deny the existence of residential schools. And so why are Leah Gazan (NDP), Lindsay Mathyssen (NDP), Nahanni Fontaine (NDP) and Kimberley Murray (Liberal Government investigator) so dissatisfied and why are they trying to force their own radical and ego-driven personal viewpoints based on hearsay and far left, as yet unproven allegations on everyone else ? Why do they want you to think the way they think, believe in the what they believe, and be forced ( by law ) into accepting their unique, extreme left wing, selfish and self-serving narrative, (that they get paid for) as being Gods' truth, and,, if you dare resist them you are then to be called a hater or denier and become a criminal that could be sent to jail for up to life in prison under the law enshrined in the new Bill C-63 or C-9 that they are all pushing for ?

What Is Truth ?

"If you are strictly one-sided with any opinion, you’re incredibly ignorant".

UBC Jan 22, 2026 - Many students that grew up in the Canadian public school system during the Trudeau Liberal era ( 2015 thru 2025 ) are now reaching post secondary age and arriving at University with a heavily indoctrinated state and a coercive one-sided, my-opinion-only attitude ? Violent gangs of masked and gagged orange shirted student protestors, tribalism, far left radical activism and propaganda posters hanging in an Authoritarian environment where free will, open debate or speaking the truth has become a crime ? And these are supposed to be Canadian institutes of higher learning ? This scenario may sound Orwellian, but it's actually the billion dollar public funded University of B.C. campus in Vancouver ? Frances Widdowson, "Without truth and without freedom, our Universities will die." Frances visits UBC. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihsLPodE9R0

 

CBC reporter Jordan Tucker ? In her interview assignment for CBC, ace reporter Jordan Tucker says that around 6000 reservation school first nation child bodies have been discovered so far, and that truth is not really her top priority ? www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Ik61NGwXas&t=58s

 

Residential schools. After three years of searching for bodies, at a cost to taxpayers of $216.5 million, not a single set of human remains have been found.

What Is Truth ?

Dec 3rd 2025, Frances and Dallas visit University of Victoria B.C. and discover that U of Vic may be conducting the mass indoctrination of impressionable young minds ? Open free thinking and freedom of speech are being discouraged here ? Asking questions that might ruffle some feathers or challenge the status quo are no longer wanted on this campus and by challenging the indoctrinated dogma taught in this publicly owned B.C. University you might be abused and carted off to jail ? www.youtube.com/watch?v=u53G5WBpVmc

High level security enforced in this year's Memorial Park Friday night rock concert ? ( must have taken up most of the event budget ) ? Town of Kentville brings in outside police force, cordons off ground zero event area with barricades and manned guard posts to establish maximum concert security level 1 ? In past years this concert had always featured invited guest rock bands, interesting games, demonstrations and displays and a visit from the Queen Annapolisa Royal party following a prestigious coronation ceremony in Wolfville, but a newcomer version of the highly anticipated yearly event appears to have deteriorated into some kind of outdoor romper room type family show featuring food trucks, inflatable air bouncy castles and local bands as the featured main stage star performers ? Not much to do or see for those above elementary grade school level other than maybe purchase some food from a food truck charging upscale restaurant prices and then dine on a paper plate with plastic utensils while standing up in a crowd of unruly kids and being lustfully observed by nearby hungry saliva drooling pet dogs leashed to their owners ? However, thanks to the upgraded crowd control security, the heavy police presence and the enforcement of strict traffic control, there had been a report of a parking violator being successfully apprehended and a runaway pet was captured and returned to its owner ? www.flickr.com/photos/74039487@N02/54558198569/in/photost...

BUILDING CYBER RESILIENCE

Cyberattacks on critical infrastructure, such as the Colonial Pipeline, are increasing in frequency and size. Concurrently, infrastructure operators are implementing new technologies that increase efficiencies, but these could also make their assets more vulnerable to cyberattacks. How can the industry embrace digital adoption while managing cyberthreats? What can be done about zero-day exploits—that is, cyberattacks that occur the same day a vulnerability is discovered by a hacker? What preventive strategies might reduce downtime?
