Open Directive to the Supreme Court of Canada (SCC) From Their Supervisors*

Principle of
Jury Nullification
(See below at **)

(*being the people of Canada who have memories and conscience**)

For SCC’s immediate attention!

It has come to our attention¹ that YOU, the “Right Honourable Justices” of the Supreme Court of Canada (SCC) have perhaps become subject to the same R.I.C.E.² that the infamous College of Psychologists of Ontario (CPO) seems to have ingested when dealing with the Jordan Peterson case,³ thus revealing, if so, that the SCC is also in dire need of re-education concerning:

▪ rights,
▪ freedoms,
▪ constitutions,
▪ historical struggles for the above three,
▪ obsessions and abuses by “the Domination System”,
▪ the endless déjà vus of deluded utopians,
▪ etc., etc., etc.

Therefore, in the spirit of reciprocity, equity, inclusion, justice and judgment, the people direct you and your SCC staff (plus the Court and staff of the Superior Court of Justice - Ontario | SCJ-O⁴) to convene before an electronic device every Monday (beginning August 19) at 3 PM MST or thereabouts and tune into:

Mayday! - the Human Condition⁵

The purpose of this weekly convening is to listen to and then discuss the “reasonableness” of the insights of diverse guest vlogs to be featured. The weekly Mayday sessions will continue for as long as needed, God willing. All Canadians and non-Canadians (especially those who think this issue is not a critical tipping point) are invited to tune-in at the same time and blog site to see what the SCC should be seeing and discussing about power, its use and abuse.

What the CPO has ordered for Jordan Peterson is, in essence, a Mao-type series of struggle sessions⁶ intended: 1) to break the spirit, will, and reputation of an out-spoken “non-conformist”; 2) to send a message of fear and conformity to others; 3) to embolden anonymous jerks, sycophants, and sadists; and 4) to demolish legal protections. The SCJ-O and the SCC, by their decisions on Peterson’s appeal of the CPO order, have affirmed this Mao-type tyranny by a licensing body.

So, as you Justices prepare to convene next Monday at Mayday! - the Human Condition, you can get a jump start on re-education through this vlog:

In summary: Until we acknowledge that the obsessive pursuit and protection of power, gain, glory, and domination have plagued every age of history, we will never understand the events and dangers of our own time.

Re-education for the CPO*!

[*College of Psychologists of Ontario – and all other Colleges (or governing bodies) that have fallen into advocacy for Pscience¹ Omnipotence (also known as CPOs — Colleges of Pscience Omnipotence]

Within the past three years, governing bodies worldwide have taken to censoring members and threatening their licenses for offending the powers and for resisting the pscience of conformity and World Order (WO) — aka Tyranny. One of the latest is the College of Psychologists of Ontario vis-à- vis Jordan B. Peterson² whose wide-ranging contributions to honest inquiry and truth-seeking are perhaps unparalleled in this 21st Century. His contributions can no longer be tolerated by the P-3³ powers and the WOKE⁴ lords, and thus this intensified targeting with these three main agendas:

1) censor, distract, intimidate, and forestall JBP from exposing more of the hypocrisy and lies of power pursuers, abusers, and protectors;
2) interrupt further honest inquiry and truth-seeking / -speaking by JBP; and
3) intimidate others from expressing opinions, beliefs, or facts that offend the powers and their narratives.

So, in the spirit of [JBP] gander & [CPO] geese⁵: let the geese re-education begin with intensive, mandatory re-education of:

●  the historical battle for fundamental freedoms;
●  the contents, meaning, and constitutionality of Bills and Charters of Rights both national and international;
●  the DSM-V definitions of mental illness that many medical and mental health professionals are now normalizing;
●  the difference between science and pscience⁶;
●  the power and courage of one or two in opposing harmful or abusive  conformity⁷;
●  the frequent self-deception, narcissism, and psychopathy of power pursuers, abusers, protectors
●  the science and abuse of mind control, e.g.:
   • Bloom, Howard. The Lucifer Principle: A Scientific Expedition into the Forces of History.
   • Meerloo, Dr. Joost A. M.. The Rape of the Mind: The Psychology of Thought Control, Menticide, and Brainwashing.
   • Simpson, Christopher. Science of Coercion: Communication Research & Psychological Warfare, 1945–1960 (Forbidden Bookshelf)
   • Zimbardo, Philip. The Lucifer Effect: Understanding How Good People Turn Evil.
●  etc. as the spirit of true science dictates.

With satisfactory re-education, board members could rename themselves the CFPO: The College of Free Psychologists of Ontario.

1. Pscience is the corrupted offshoot of honorable Science. It is the inevitable consequence of man's obsessive pursuit and protection of power, gain, glory, and domination. Pscience is pseudo, psychopathic, propagandizing, plagiarizing, politicized, psy-opic, and above all, profit-obsessed, and profit-driven. This obsessive pursuit and protection by people without conscience is often enabled by naïve, trusting, or fear-filled acolytes. Pscience is a one-faith, one-dogma, heretic-fearing, self-deceiving, other-censoring system.

7. This footnote is to help awaken fearful board members (intimidated by emotional or bullying board members or complainants) to have the courage to stand up and speak out for integrity and freedom of opinion and belief. By caving to the bullies, the CPO has exposed its lapdog status and invited scorn and ridicule. Re-educate yourselves and apologize. Refuse to be a Stanley Milgram obedient administering shock after shock on orders from the “bosses.”
See Stanley Milgram Experiment #17 and many other experiments for breaking group conformity.
“In Experiment 17, three “teachers” were used, one real participant and two confederates. Teacher 1 read the word pairs, Teacher 2 announced whether the answer was right, and Teacher 3 (the real participant) administered the shock. After hearing the learner’s protests following the 150-volt shock, Teacher 1 dramatically refused to participate and moved to the other side of the room. The test continued until Teacher 2 also refused to continue in a dramatic fashion at the 210-volt level. At this point, the experimenter told the real participant to continue the study by himself. Milgram found that 7.5% of the participants refused to go on as soon as Teacher 1 quit, 30% refused to continue immediately after the second teacher quit, and only 10% continued to the end of the study” (p. 3, bold emphasis added).

The Science of Money

FACTS (reproduced and reproducible—déjà vu on déjà vu):

IF there is money to be made in an established procedure or protocol:

▪ it will take decades before change can occur even in the face of overwhelming science discrediting that procedure or protocol (UNLESS a new procedure or protocol with greater pelf and patent potential can immediately substitute);

▪ most beneficiaries of moola will suppress, deny, disparage, or attempt to destroy the reputations, careers, even lives of those who discover and / or whistleblow about discredited practices and procedures that fund the money-machine;

▪ the money-controlled media in fraternity with gain-obsessed elites and mega-corps find blood-money thicker than water and wellness.

So what do we think? If root canals are known to be the “root cause”¹ of a myriad of illnesses and diseases where is the motivation to pull-the-plug when they keep the associated medical rat-race and hamster wheels spinning and caching non-stop?

Hypocrisy of YouKnowWhoTube?

Before I could even post, recommending this shocking exposé of hypocrisy and marketing of children, the End Times News Report video was DELETED by the lords of increasing censorship. (Oh, déjà vu!!) Here is evidence:

EXPOSED! Dangerous Pedophile Rings & Child Traffickers On YouTube (Time 51:28) at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elYJFbpo2vQ
WARNING: Disturbing, graphic content exposing a reality that we ignore at our and others peril.

Here is where ETNR explains the take-down of his exposé:

#PizzaGate - YouTube Gags Journalists Trying to Expose YT Pedophile Rings (Time 8:00) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3KPPWpGc27o

This explanation may also disappear in short order. If so, search his channel periodically for updates or try his vid.me channel for the exposé of adults-without-conscience who are sexualizing, filming, and uploading images of children (or of cartoon characters loved by children) for the (im)pure sake of ad revenues. ETNR's exposé should go VIRAL with a blowback to YouKnowWhoTube that will never be forgotten. Here is the ETNR initial exposé posted (hopefully) beyond the clutches of the lords of censorship.

How Pedophile Rings Target Children On YouTube (Time 51:07) at https://vid.me/24MBa
WARNING: Disturbing, graphic content exposing a reality that we ignore at our and others peril.

May it shock and disturb you into an awakening to what is really going on, into a commitment of united action against the marketing and abuse of children worldwide, and against the blatant hypocrisy of quasi-monopolistic corps who are prepared to do and sacrifice anything in pursuit and protection of power and gain.

Connecting the Dots ~ Exposing the Cons?

When media is in the ownership and control of those pursuing and protecting power and gain, what is the likelihood of truth being disseminated to the masses?

Does it matter whether the pursuer / protector is black or white? brown or beige? young or old? able or disabled? politically right or left? human or AI?

If your raison d'être were to increase power and gain, would you allow your owned and controlled media empire to spread the truth about your hidden agendas? your secret deals? your moral failings? Would you want anyone connecting the dots of your cons as you competed for the resources of the world? for the supreme position of all positions — #1?

Or maybe you fell for a “honey-pot” / “brown-stone” op and found yourself compromised such that your power and gain status was at risk of exposure and collapse? What would you not do to keep the truth under wraps? to keep the income coming in? Would you lie? steal? cheat? oppress? kill? Would you seek to compromise and blackmail others so they, too, would be “in control”? Would you falsely accuse whistle-blowers of the very crimes they seek to expose? Would you come to take pleasure in the success of your duplicities? Would you become addicted to the highs of deceiving the “low brows”? Would you revel in the deliberate, increasing incongruities you were able to get away with? in the fabrications that you were able to force others to advance for the sake of their paychecks and pensions?

So if media is owned and controlled by power- and gain-brokers, what is the chance for truth? What is the historical, déjà vu “pattern and practice”? to accuse upstart, non-conforming investigative journalists of fictional sins and crimes? — just like whistle-blowers? Is the pattern to deflect? disparage? destroy the true news? to swear by all that is high and mighty, low and despicable that “False News” is everywhere but where you are?

So to those who get their news and views from corporate-controlled media, the déjà vu truth is: Whether the anchor or reporter is Fox-, CNN-, MSNBC-, ETC.-affiliated, your diet is fat-cat-saturated and truth deficient.

Time to move on, folks. Unplug from the fat-cat MSM. Move on to the new news paradigm — those upstart alternates who risk reputation, life, and limb to uncover the cover-ups of power and gain agendas with facts, evidence, and accountability. As always, use one's head and discernment, but perhaps begin with some of these:

▪ The Corbett Report at https://www.youtube.com/user/corbettreport

To Hear ..., To See ..., or Not?

(Echoes of George Orwell¹)

“If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.

To see what is in front of one's nose needs a constant struggle.

Everyone believes in the atrocities of the enemy and disbelieves in those of his own side, without ever bothering to examine the evidence.

This business of making people conscious of what is happening outside their own small circle is one of the major problems of our time,

The essential job is to get people to recognise war propaganda when they see it, especially when it is disguised as peace propaganda.

If you disregard people's motives, it becomes much harder to foresee their actions.

Every war, when it comes, or before it comes, is represented not as a war but as an act of self-defence against a homicidal maniac.

There is something wrong with a regime that requires a pyramid of corpses every few years.

[T]he existing social order is a swindle and its cherished beliefs mostly delusions.

I saw newspapers in London retailing these lies and eager intellectuals building emotional superstructures over events that had never happened. I saw, in fact, history being written not in terms of what happened but of what ought to have happened according to various ‘party lines’.

Is the English press honest or dishonest? At normal times it is deeply dishonest. All the papers that matter live off their advertisements, and the advertisers exercise an indirect censorship over news.

I watched him with some interest, for it was the first time that I had seen a person whose profession was telling lies — unless one counts journalists.

Anyone who challenges the prevailing orthodoxy finds himself silenced with surprising effectiveness. A genuinely unfashionable opinion is almost never given a fair hearing, either in the popular press or in the highbrow periodicals.

Threats to freedom of speech, writing and action, though often trivial in isolation, are cumulative in their effect and, unless checked, lead to a general disrespect for the rights of the citizen.

[I]f public opinion is sluggish, inconvenient minorities will be persecuted, even if laws exist to protect them.

Nationalism is power-hunger tempered by self-deception.

What now strikes us as remarkable about the new moneyed class of the nineteenth century is their complete irresponsibility; they see everything in terms of individual success, with hardly any consciousness that the community exists.

One's got to change the system, or one changes nothing.

Either we all live in a decent world, or nobody does.

Do remember that dishonesty and cowardice always have to be paid for.”

So, are we open to hearing and seeing the greater reality of our 21st Century world by examining the prescience of 20th Century George Orwell?

Above quotes from https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/George_Orwell
Some additional quotes from the same source:
» Actions are held to be good or bad, not on their own merits, but according to who does them, and there is almost no kind of outrage — torture, the use of hostages, forced labour, mass deportations, imprisonment without trial, forgery, assassination, the bombing of civilians — which does not change its moral colour when it is committed by ‘our’ side.
» War against a foreign country only happens when the moneyed classes think they are going to profit from it.
» It is difficult to see how Gandhi's methods could be applied in a country where opponents of the regime disappear in the middle of the night and are never heard of again. Without a free press and the right of assembly, it is impossible not merely to appeal to outside opinion, but to bring a mass movement into being, or even to make your intentions known to your adversary.
» Looking at the world as a whole, the drift for many decades has been not towards anarchy but towards the reimposition of slavery.
» In this country intellectual cowardice is the worst enemy a writer or journalist has to face, and that fact does not seem to me to have had the discussion it deserves.
» The point is that we are all capable of believing things which we know to be untrue, and then, when we are finally proved wrong, impudently twisting the facts so as to show that we were right. Intellectually, it is possible to carry on this process for an indefinite time: the only check on it is that sooner or later a false belief bumps up against solid reality, usually on a battlefield.
» As time goes on and the horrors pile up, the mind seems to secrete a sort of self-protecting ignorance which needs a harder and harder shock to pierce it, just as the body will become immunised to a drug and require bigger and bigger doses.
» The choice before human beings, is not, as a rule, between good and evil but between two evils.
» Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past.

Outside the Box?

If one is a devoted viewer of Fox News, or CNN, or MSNBC, or any other MSM (mainstream media) outlet, how about taking a break and listening to these two alternatives to see if one's box needs ventilation.

Our Own Worst Enemy?

This speech, "The President and the Press," was given 27 April 1961 before The American Newspaper Publishers Association. It posed, amongst others matters, the dilemma every administration has faced of balancing openness with security/secrecy concerns. It is a speech for our day:

JFK ... Speech (full version) (Time 19:43) at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdMbmdFOvTs

But the part that may be most déjà vu is this description of the enemy (at minute 9:55):

For we are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence--on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice, on guerrillas by night instead of armies by day. It is a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific and political operations.

Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed,^[1] no secret is revealed. It conducts the Cold War, in short, with a war-time discipline no democracy would ever hope or wish to match.²

Today however, this also describes our own secret governments in nigh every nation, but especially the powerful, imperialist US. The added international woe is the state of the media that has allowed itself to be compromised, cowered, and censored³ by the insatiable forces of power and gain?

A final déjà vu word to POTUS and the Press from this 1961 speech:

It is the unprecedented nature of this challenge that also gives rise to your second obligation--an obligation which I [JFK] share. And that is our obligation to inform and alert the American people--to make certain that they possess all the facts that they need, and understand them as well--the perils, the prospects, the purposes of our program and the choices that we face.

No President should fear public scrutiny of his program. For from that scrutiny comes understanding; and from that understanding comes support or opposition. And both are necessary. I am not asking your newspapers to support the Administration, but I am asking your help in the tremendous task of informing and alerting the American people. For I have complete confidence in the response and dedication of our citizens whenever they are fully informed.

I not only could not stifle controversy among your readers--I welcome it. This Administration intends to be candid about its errors; for as a wise man once said: "An error does not become a mistake until you refuse to correct it." We intend to accept full responsibility for our errors; and we expect you to point them out when we miss them.

Without debate, without criticism, no Administration and no country can succeed--and no republic can survive. That is why the Athenian lawmaker Solon decreed it a crime for any citizen to shrink from controversy. And that is why our press was protected by the First Amendment-- the only business in America specifically protected by the Constitution- -not primarily to amuse and entertain, not to emphasize the trivial and the sentimental, not to simply "give the public what it wants"--but to inform, to arouse, to reflect, to state our dangers and our opportunities, to indicate our crises and our choices, to lead, mold, educate and sometimes even anger public opinion.

This means greater coverage and analysis of international news--for it is no longer far away and foreign but close at hand and local. It means greater attention to improved understanding of the news as well as improved transmission. And it means, finally, that government at all levels, must meet its obligation to provide you with the fullest possible information outside the narrowest limits of national security--and we intend to do it. ...

And so it is to the printing press--to the recorder of man's deeds, the keeper of his conscience, the courier of his news--that we look for strength and assistance, confident that with your help man will be what he was born to be: free and independent.

Let us awake, at last, to our home-grown threats and treasons. Do we even know or care about the Awan Brothers, fusion centers, human trafficking, mind-control programs, food/ climate/ medicine/ vaccine/ financial deceptions, and on and on?

Let us finally recognize (in the mirror) our own worst enemy!

“Imprisoned by Profit”

Recently, on “Ideas with Paul Kennedy,” the subject was “Imprisoned by Profit: Media and Democracy”¹ which can be listened to here.² In that episode, we are confronted with yet another voice crying in the wilderness of corporatism and bottom-line. But the story is not just about media. As we listen, we can hear the déjà vu in almost every arena that profit touches: science, education, business, medicine, health, construction, food, finance, fashion, employment, entertainment, religion, government contracts, etc., etc.

So let's ask ourselves: How many values and principles do we compromise or sacrifice outright for the sake of profit? Perhaps we should ask ourselves this question on a daily basis. Would that daily query change anything about the way we think and live?

How long before we recognize that the only way to truly be free from the corruptions of profit is to embrace the gift economy?³
