Inside Bell’s Push To End Net Neutrality In Canada

by

Canada’s biggest media companies appear to want to put an end to net neutrality, in the name of blocking piracy.

According to a draft proposal to the CRTC obtained by CANADALAND, Bell is leading a coalition of companies that intends to push the telecom regulator to create a not-for-profit corporation that would maintain a list of websites it had determined were peddling pirated materials, and force all internet service providers in the country to block access to them. The proposal closely follows testimony Bell made this fall before a House of Commons committee.

The new corporation would be called the “Internet Piracy Review Agency” (IPRA).
The coalition includes broadcasters, movie studios, and cinema operators from across Canada. After Bell, some of the biggest names include Rogers, Cineplex, and Quebec theatre chain Cinémas Guzzo, according to emails obtained by CANADALAND. A comp lete list of companies supporting the plan has not yet been finalized. The coalition expects to file its application to the CRTC on December 19, the emails say.

A spokesperson for Rogers, however, says the company has not yet decided whether to sign on to Bell’s plan: “We’re currently reviewing the proposal.”

According to the emails, the coalition doesn’t want to get U.S. studios and broadcasters as official applicants to the CRTC; instead, the American media conglomerates would join the application after the process gets rolling.

One expert to whom CANADALAND showed copies of the draft application thinks it’s a very bad idea. “It’s enormously problematic, I think it’s legally questionable, and I think it’s terrible policy,” says Michael Geist.

Geist, a University of Ottawa law professor and internet policy expert, says the proposal goes well beyond anything he’s seen before. “This is a dramatic shift. This is a prospect of significant internet regulation being done by the CRTC and without any court oversight,” Geist says. “The only court oversight [would come] after a site has been blocked.”...http://www.canadalandshow.com/bell-pushing-end-to-net-neutrality-in-canada/

Glowing Auras and ‘Black Money’: The Pentagon’s Mysterious U.F.O. Program








For years, the program investigated reports of unidentified flying objects, according to Defense Department officials, interviews with program participants and records obtained by The New York Times. It was run by a military intelligence official, Luis Elizondo, on the fifth floor of the Pentagon’s C Ring, deep within the building’s maze.

The Defense Department has never before acknowledged the existence of the program, which it says it shut down in 2012. But its backers say that, while the Pentagon ended funding for the effort at that time, the program remains in existence. For the past five years, they say, officials with the program have continued to investigate episodes brought to them by service members, while also carrying out their other Defense Department duties.

The shadowy program — parts of it remain classified — began in 2007, and initially it was largely funded at the request of Harry Reid, the Nevada Democrat who was the Senate majority leader at the time and who has long had an interest in space phenomena. Most of the money went to an aerospace research company run by a billionaire entrepreneur and longtime friend of Mr. Reid’s, Robert Bigelow, who is currently working with NASA to produce expandable craft for humans to use in space.

On CBS’s “60 Minutes” in May, Mr. Bigelow said he was “absolutely convinced” that aliens exist and that U.F.O.s have visited Earth...https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/16/us/politics/pentagon-program-ufo-harry-reid.html

Anunnaki Revealed: Finding the Nephilim in Myth, Giants Among Men - update

Gilgamesh Statue (Gwil5083/CC BY-SA 4.0)
 
Central to Ancient Astronaut Theory and author Zecharia Sitchin’s narrative, is a group of mythic beings known as the Anunnaki, whom he claimed crossed their own DNA with that of Homo erectus in order to create mankind—for the purpose of using humans as slaves to mine gold and other minerals. Today these Anunnaki are often portrayed as the equivalent of the Old Testament creator God.

But what does the cuneiform corpus actually say about the Anunnaki and other mythic beings? How does the version of these beings and their activities presented in Ancient Astronaut media compare with how they were truly represented in the ancient world?...http://www.ancient-origins.net/unexplained-phenomena/anunnaki-revealed-finding-nephilim-myth-giants-among-men-part-ii-009140?nopaging=1

HADRIAN'S CURSE –– THE INVENTION OF PALESTINE

by Tsafrir Ronen 
 Almost 2,000 years ago, the Roman Emperor Hadrian cursed the Jewish People and decreed that Judea should be henceforth called "Palestine" after the Philistines, an ancient enemy of Israel that had disappeared from the world's stage more than 600 years earlier. It was his final twist of the knife and legacy after wars, massacres, persecutions, and exiles that had largely extinguished the Jewish presence from Judea....http://www.think-israel.org/ronen.hadriancurse.html

The art of flying is a short film about “murmurations”: the mysterious flights of the Common Starling. It is still unknown how the thousands of birds are able to fly in such dense swarms without colliding. Every night the starlings gather at dusk to perform their stunning air show.
Because of the relatively warm winter of 2014/2015, the starlings stayed in the Netherlands instead of migrating southwards. This gave filmmaker Jan van IJken the opportunity to film one of the most spectacular and amazing natural phenomena on earth.

Liberal “Results”: The Real Tracker - accurate analysis of the first two years of Justin Trudeau’s mandate.

Authorized by the Registered Agent of the Conservative Party of Canada


In November, the Liberal government used your tax dollars to launch Canada.ca/Results, a self-congratulatory mid-mandate progress report of sorts.

Never mind the irony of the Liberal government giving the Liberal government a glowing review of its own accomplishments; it contains countless stretches of the truth and omits just as many facts.

A homeless vet says he's been given a second chance in life...

Ottawa vet warning dog owners about potentially deadly disease

Dogs can contract leptospirosis by drinking from water sources contaminated with urine from infected animals. (Frank Augstein/Associated Press)
 
An Ottawa veterinarian is sounding the alarm after treating a dog for leptospirosis at his clinic last week.

Leptospirosis is a bacterial disease that causes vomiting, diarrhea and severe weight loss in animals. Without treatment it can lead to kidney failure and death. The disease can also be passed on to humans.

Dogs can catch the "zoonotic" disease when they drink water that's been contaminated with the urine of other animals, such as puddles in dog parks.

Dr. Ian Cameron knows the symptoms of leptospirosis first-hand. Seventeen years ago, when he was a student at the University of Guelph, he contracted the disease from the infected dogs he was treating. 

"It felt like my kidneys were on fire," recalled Cameron.  "It was extremely painful, I felt really nauseous for a long time."...http://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.4414595

Bali raises volcano alert to highest level; airport closed

INDONESIA: The alert for a volcano belching huge plumes of smoke on Indonesia's resort island of Bali has been raised to the highest level, officials said Monday, with fears a significant eruption could be imminent.

The exclusion zone around Mount Agung, which is 75 kilometres (47 miles) from the tourist hub of Kuta, has been widened to 10 kilometers, with people living in the exclusion zone being urged to evacuate.

"The volcano's alert level has been raised to the highest level," said senior state volcanologist Gede Suantika. "Constant tremors can be felt."

Huge plumes of smoke have been pouring out of the volcano since Tuesday and Suantika said it was belching thick grey smoke as high as 3,400 metres (11,154 feet) early Monday.
About 25,000 people living nearby the mountain have already left their homes and evacuated since Mount Agung first started to spew smoke Tuesday.

"Continuous ash puffs are sometimes accompanied by explosive eruptions accompanied by a weak sound of boom," the National Board for Disaster Management wrote on Facebook.

"The rays of fire are increasingly observed at night. This indicates the potential for a larger eruption is imminent."

National disaster agency spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho called for people to stay calm.

Possible New Source on Discovery of Frozen City under Antarctic Ice

 Written by Dr Michael Salla Ph. D.

A possible new source has come forward with corroborating information about the discovery of a large frozen city two miles under the Antarctic ice, located roughly 16 miles from the geographic South Pole. The breakthrough to the city occurred in August 2016, according to this latest source, and it was visited a few months later by VIPs such as John Kerry and Buzz Aldrin.

On November 18th, the source’s testimony was introduced in a video published by “Pete”, host of the Creepy Little Book Youtube channel.  He says that he decided to go forward in releasing the information since he had found a new source five days ago who had corroborated information gleaned from previous sources about events in Antarctica.

In the comments section of his video, Pete says that his sources are from outside the United States, and are not connected to Corey Goode and David Wilcock. Furthermore, when it comes to his latest whistleblower, Pete affirms that he is “confident in the sincerity of the source of this information”.

I recommend watching Pete’s video first before continuing to read this article, which will analyze and connect key points of his testimony to other important information, and assess the reliability of Pete and his new source...Read more, video: exopolitics.org

Diversity Is Destroying The Cohesion And Social Capital Of Western Nations

 The academic world is totally dedicated to the diversification of all White-created nations. The research effort, the collection of data, the preparation of surveys, the proposals for lucrative grants, the long string of mediocre articles and books regularly published, are overwhelmingly biased in favour of mass immigration. It is assumed among all academics that White "homogeneous communities" without a program of diversification are inherently "backward looking", "reactionary", "anti-democratic", devoid of "youth" and "energy", and out of touch with the "requirements" of  the times...http://www.eurocanadian.ca/2017/11/diversity-destroying-cohesion-social-capital-whites.html

Hidden from History: The Canadian Holocaust



Kevin Annett is a former United Church minister in Vancouver, Canada, who was fired without cause in 1995, and then expelled from the same church without due process, after he had unearthed evidence of the theft of native land by church officers, and of the murder of native children at the United Church residential school in Port Alberni, British Columbia, where Kevin ministered.

Since his firing and blacklisting by the United Church, Reverend Annett has worked as an advocate and counsellor in aboriginal healing circles on the west coast. He organized the first international Tribunal into Canadian residential schools in Vancouver in June, 1998, at which a United Nations affiliate, IHRAAM, presided. This website is a partial summary of that investigation.

Reverend Annett is working with aboriginal and human rights groups around the world in an effort to bring charges of complicity in Genocide against the government of Canada, the Anglican, United and Roman Catholic churches, and the RCMP. He is serving as the secretary of the recently-established Truth Commission into Genocide in Canada, and has authored a book about his experiences, "Love and Death in the Valley"...http://canadiangenocide.nativeweb.org/intro.html

Boom in boar population could cause 'significant issues,' Sask. researcher warns


A wild boar spotted near Big River, Sask., in November 2016. 'They will eat anything and live in almost any habitat in Saskatchewan, so we should expect some really significant issues if we can't turn this around,' says U of S associate professor Ryan Brook. (Submitted by Ryan Brook) 

 As wild boar sightings rise dramatically in the province, one researcher is hoping to find out just how many of the pigs there are in Saskatchewan so measures can be taken to control the population growth.

"In the late '80s, early '90s, they were brought over from Europe and Asia and raised as meat," said Ryan Brook, an associate professor in the University of Saskatchewan's college of agriculture and bioresources.

"What happened is a lot of animals escaped, and many producers went out of business and just cut their fence and let them go. They've really taken off in the wild."...http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/saskatoon/wild-boar-sightings-map-1.4401795

‘Super invader’ tree hits South, but flea beetle may be hero

NEW ORLEANS (AP)

 The tallow tree, a “super invader” with toxic leaves and no natural enemies in North America, is conquering the South.

Overtaking forests from Texas to Florida, tallows grow three times faster than most native hardwoods, and each one casts off 100,000 seeds a year. Controlled burns haven’t stopped their spread, nor have herbicide sprays from helicopters. Cutting them down works only when each stump is immediately doused with chemicals. Harvesting them for biofuel remains more a promise than a practical solution.

Some scientists say introducing a flea beetle from the tallow’s native habitat in eastern China may be the best alternative.

Yes, they’re aware of “nightmare scenarios” with other non-native plants and bugs, environmental scientist Michael Massimi said...https://apnews.com/5eea057267894e6580283ac01fe75dc4/'Super-invader'-tree-hits-South,-but-flea-beetle-may-be-hero?utm_campaign=SocialFlow&utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=APSouthRegion

NIBIRU COMING? Mysterious trumpet sounds heard - Christians say it is sign of APOCALYPSE

By
 GETTY

STRANGE trumpet-like sounds have been heard in the skies over Canada and Indonesia which some have interpreted as the sign of the apocalypse or even that Nibiru is approaching.


Several people have reported hearing strange humming, loud booms, grinding metal and trumpet-like noises, according to a video which has gone viral.

Christians fear such ominous messages could signal the end, as the Bible points out that trumpet sounds will be heard before the apocalypse begins.

Revelation 8:10-11 says: "The third angel blew his trumpet, and a great star fell from heaven, blazing like a torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of water. The name of the star is Wormwood.”

Sean Parker Says Facebook Was Designed to Be Addictive




By

Sean Parker, the billionaire early Facebook investor and Napster founder, says Mark Zuckerberg knowingly created a monster with addictive social media.

Parker, speaking at an Axios event, pulled back the curtain on Facebook's early days, saying it was designed to consume people.

And all this time everyone thought it was designed for people to consume.

Nope, all the sharing and liking were used like a drug to get people hooked on checking Facebook non-stop. "How do we consume as much of your time and conscious attention as possible," said Parker, referring to Facebook's earliest mission.
