Remarque! La version française suit un peu plus bas Thanks A heartfelt thank you to all who participated in the “political reset” letter-writing campaign. Recall that it was initiated in opposition to the disastrous “economic reset” that was portended to be part and parcel of the Liberal government’s Throne Speech of 23 September 2020.

The case of free speech warrior Daniel Bordman Of “resets” and secrecy Last week’s update drew attention to the Canadian federal government’s cynical plans to effect a massive economic “reset” of the national economy. This “reset” is leveraged by the worldwide Wuhan virus crisis and follows a similar call for related global measures by none other than the World Economic Forum (WEF).
