Canada: Freedom Convoy organizer Tamara Lich SHACKLED in court

Lich's lawyers are also arguing that bail hearings should consider the Gladue principles.

Freedom Convoy organizer Tamara Lich appeared in court on Wednesday seeking a bail review. Lich, who was denied bail last week, appeared in court wearing shackles around her feet, which made it difficult for her to move.


Comment: Of all the de-humanizing and barbaric things for a court of law to do to a peaceful individual!!


The Judge asked that those shackles be removed, according to David Akin. Lich was denied bail because, in part, judge Julie Bourgeois believed that there was a risk that she would continue criminal actions.


Comment: So Lich's lawyers feel like their client's best defense is to appeal to the judge's 'woke' sensibilities as opposed to the types of values one might expect from a judge in a non-Totalitarian society - like, say, the a right of citizens to peaceably protest and seek redress from the government.

As war escalates, get ready for a terrifying breakdown of our food and energy systems

If you believe that your life will continue on as normal because the war between Russia and Ukraine is on the other side of the globe, you should think again. We were already facing the worst energy crisis since the 1970s before the war broke out, and Russia is one of the most important energy producers on the entire globe. As energy markets are thrown into further turmoil, energy prices will go to unprecedented heights. And as I have documented repeatedly in recent months, the global food crisis has just continued to get worse as global food supplies have continued to get tighter and tighter. Normally, Russia and Ukraine export vast quantities of food to the rest of the world, but the war is going to change that. We really are facing a horrifying breakdown of our food and energy systems, and that is going to affect every man, woman and child on the entire planet.

Let's start by taking a look at the impact that this war will have on food supplies. Even the Washington Post is admitting that the war in Ukraine will likely "push U.S. food prices even higher"...
Russia's invasion of Ukraine could push U.S. food prices even higher, as the region is one of the world's largest producers of wheat and some vegetable oils. And the disruptions could drag on for months or even years, as crop production in the area could be halted and take a long time to restart.

This new inflation shock comes at a time when global markets remain extremely strained because of pandemic-related disruptions. The price changes impacted commodity prices in recent days and could flow through to higher costs at grocery stores and restaurants soon.

The purge: Russian conductor told to publicly denounce Putin or lose job

Russia's star conductor, Valery Gergiev, has been dropped by his management over his close ties to Vladimir Putin as he faces a looming deadline to publicly denounce the Russian president or lose yet another role in his rapidly crumbling career.

The 68-year-old Russian, an old friend and supporter of Putin, has faced increasing pressure to speak out against Russia's invasion of Ukraine over the last week. He has been removed from performances around the world and faces more professional punishment if he does not condemn Putin's aggression in the next 24 hours.


Comment: Evidently this is not 'Russian aggression', this was Russia's response to decades of Western provocations that, were they not challenged, threatened the very existence of Russia.


On Sunday, his manager, Marcus Felsner, announced he would be dropping Gergiev, who he called "the greatest conductor alive and an extraordinary human being with a profound sense of decency", but who "will not, or cannot, publicly end his long-expressed support for a regime that has come to commit such crimes."

Comment: Whilst The Purge seems to have been building incrementally over the years, and over a variety of topics, it gained significant traction with the Woke agenda and its cancel culture, as well as during Trump's presidency; but it seems that The Purge began in earnest during the contrived coronavirus crisis. During which it became clear that the public were well and truly willing victims of establishment orchestrated mass psychosis (aka mass formation, or the psychorium).

And it seems that now this process, associated with pathological regimes throughout history, is now relatively normalised and these same tactics are being used against those who reject the mainstream narrative about Russia's operation in Ukraine and the first major public figureheads are being made an example of, however some countries are already going for citizens who dare to have a contrary opinion: Also check out SOTT radio's: NewsReal: New Year, Same 'New Normal': Mass Formation Psychosis & Crowd Psychology

Putin slams West's 'empire of lies'

Russia's president has criticized the West as the country faces a new massive wave of sanctions

Russian President Vladimir Putin has called the West an "empire of lies," responding to a new wave of sanctions that have hit the country over its military attack on neighboring Ukraine.

Speaking to top government officials on Monday, he said:
"I invited you to discuss economic and financial issues ... bearing in mind the sanctions that the so-called Western community — an empire of lies, as I called it in my address — is trying to implement against our country."
The "empire of lies" term was coined by Russia's president last Thursday, when he announced the launch of the offensive in Ukraine. Since the US is a "system-forming power," the whole collective West has become such an "empire," he said then.

Comment: Finally, someone slapped the declining empire of lies in the face and wisely decided to tell the truth and to lead his country to freedom from the psychopathic and fascistic western "elites".

My answer to Canadian friends worrying about the war in Ukraine

We, the NCW editorial team, welcome back Halyna, who, as one of the earliest contributors to NCW, returns to share her thoughts and insights on current events in Ukraine.

By Halyna Mokrushyna

I see pictures of my fellow Ukrainians sleeping in subway stations in Kyiv and Kharkiv, with their kids, pets, blankets, warm clothes. These subway stations were built as bomb shelters during Soviet times, to protect civilians in case of war. They were built in the country in which Ukrainians and Russians were brotherly peoples, and the vast majority did not divide friends and family by ethnic origin.

Now Ukrainians are running to these bomb shelters because Russian troops are advancing towards Kyiv, as I write this, and Russians are already in Kharkiv/Kharkov, and I see videos of local people greeting Russian soldiers as liberators. I also watch videos of a Russian soldier captured by Ukrainians. He is standing with his hands tied behind his back and I hear a male voice ordering him to say: 'Glory to Ukraine'. He refuses and says instead: "Glory to Russia".

Comment: Also to other Canadian friends, none should look away from their current backyard, look away from Nazi skeletons in the Canadian closet, nor what is in plain view as reminders that most people pay no attention to.

New Zealand High Court ENDS Jacinda Ardern's vaccine mandate: "It's a gross violation of human rights"

New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern was left reeling on Friday after a High Court ruled that her vaccine mandate represented a "gross violation of human rights" for New Zealanders.

The landmark case means that the police and NZDF cannot be fired for refusing to take the experimental vaccine. This case will be used to overthrow all of Ardern's illegal mandates in New Zealand.

Justice Francis Cooke ruled that ordering frontline police officers and Defence staff to be vaccinated or face losing their job was not a "reasonably justified" breach of the Bill of Rights.

Nzherald.co.nz reports:
The lawyer for the police and Defence staff at the centre of the claim is now calling for the suspended workers to return to their jobs immediately, saying many have given decades of service to their community and are still committed to their jobs.
The challenge, put forward by a group of Defence force and police employees, questioned the legality of making an order under the Covid-19 Public Health Response Act to require vaccination for frontline employees. The challenge was supported by a group of 37 employees affected by the mandate, who submitted written affidavits to the court.

Former Hunter Biden business partner sentenced to prison for role in scheme to defraud Native American tribe

Devon Archer was sentenced to a year and a day in federal prison by Manhattan Judge Ronnie Abrams for his role in a ploy that defrauded the Oglala Sioux tribe of nearly $60 million in bonds.

Before being arrested, Archer and Biden sat on the board of the Ukrainian energy company Burisma Holdings.

Biden had no connection to the fraud scheme Archer was convicted for on Monday.

Archer's attorney, Matthew Schwartz, said Archer — who has maintained his innocence — would be appealing the judgment ordering him to pay over $15 million in restitution out of pocket and over $43 million with his co-defendants. Following the sentencing, Schwartz said:
"Mr. Archer is obviously disappointed with today's sentence, and intends to appeal. It is unfortunate that the judge, who has previously expressed concern that Mr. Archer is innocent of the crimes charged and reiterated that belief today, felt that she was constrained not to act on her independent assessment of the evidence."
Archer and his co-defendants were alleged by prosecutors as having purchased more than $60 million in bonds from the Oglala Sioux, which was then used to "build a financial services mega-company" instead of holding the bonds for annuity.

Shipping group Maersk MAERSKb.CO will temporarily halt all container shipping to and from Russia in response to Western sanctions on Moscow following its invasion of Ukraine, the company said on Tuesday.

Maersk said in a statement:
"As the stability and safety of our operations is already being directly and indirectly impacted by sanctions, new Maersk bookings within ocean and inland to and from Russia will be temporarily suspended."
The suspension, which will cover all Russian ports, would not include foodstuffs, medical and humanitarian supplies, it said.

Maersk operates container shipping routes to St. Petersburg and Kaliningrad in the Baltic Sea, Novorossiysk in the Black Sea, and to Vladivostok and Vostochny on Russia's east coast.

Comment: More details from Fox Business:
The company said it would do its "utmost" to deliver cargo already on the water to its intended destination.

"Consequently, we will still call Russia although we will not accept new bookings unless they belong in the exception categories. However, please expect significant delays as countries such as the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany are holding back vessels en route to Russia in search of restricted commodities, primarily dual-use items."

The move comes after Maersk announced on Friday that it would stop accepting shipping container bookings to and from Ukraine until further notice.

Maersk emphasized that the security and well-being of its employees remains a top priority and that it has put plans in place to ensure its impacted workers and their families get the support they need. As of Feb. 24, all Maersk employees have been instructed to work from home, away from any conflict areas.

Maersk has been active in Russia since 1992, connecting the country's ports to key global markets.

With Russian forces besieging Mariupol, in which 120,000+ ethnic Greeks live, SKAI news spoke with a Mr Kiouranas who lives in the city and exposed that Ukrainian "fascists" are killing people for trying to leave the city.

When asked by SKAI news if he planned to leave the city, Kiouranas responded "how can I leave? When you try to leave you run the risk of running into a patrol of the Ukrainian fascists, the Azov Battalion."

"They would kill me and are responsible for everything," he added.

Who are the Azov Battalion?

Azov Special Operations Detachment (Ukrainian: Окремий загін спеціального призначення «Азов»), or Azov Battalion, is a right-wing extremist and neo-Nazi unit of the National Guard of Ukraine, based in Mariupol, in the Azov Sea coastal region.

Comment: Even the propaganda rag The Guardian had to admit these are warped people with dangerous views, but then they've not exactly been shy about their beliefs: Video shows Neo-Nazi Ukrainian group preparing 'pig-fat laden' bullets for use against Muslim fighters
