"We are currently entering the next phase in the Globalist plan to erode the bedrock of natural immunity amongst the general population, a race to gain complete control over our inherent right to self-determination of the body. Based on all my research thus far into the darker aspects of the Vaccine Industry Medical Mafia now firmly in place, a powerful Technocracy of Elites, backed by a Military/Scientific/Industrial Complex in collusion with Gov’t Institutions, the UN, encompassing the entire apparatus of the World Health Organization & major private Philanthropist-type Global investments…
…I’m certain we are on the verge of another False Flag Pandemic, comparable to the trial run version of 2009 but far more virulent this time – unleashed via the network of Level 4-5 Bio-labs in place (mainly US) most likely during the Spring-Summer of 2012; a deadly Virus-Bacterium hybrid based on a Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research formula (H1N1 Swine flu + H1N2 Swine flu + H5N1 Bird flu + H3N2 Human flu + Bacteria = Pandemic)."

Canadian Government is 'Muzzling Its Scientists'
An international team including several scientists from the government agency, Environment Canada, set out details of a hole that appeared in the ozone layer above the Arctic.
Ms Munro said she had called one of the scientists involved who she had dealt with several times in the past. He agreed to speak to her, but said that he had been told that her request had to be put to government media relations officials in Ottawa.
"So I phoned up Ottawa and they just said no you can't talk to the guy. A couple of weeks later, he was available but by then the story had been done. So they take them out of the news cycle," she said.
Ms Munro also claims that journalists were denied access to scientists working for the government agency Health Canada last year, when there was concern about radiation levels reaching the country's western coast from Japan following the explosion at the Fukushima nuclear power plant. Ultimately, journalists obtained the information they sought from European agencies.
The Postmedia News journalist obtained documents relating to interview requests using Canada's equivalent of the Freedom of Information Act. She said the documents show interview requests move up what she describes as an "increasingly thick layer of media managers, media strategists, deputy ministers, then go up to the Privy Council Office, which decides 'yes' or 'no'".
"The government has never explained what the process is. They just imposed these changes and they expected us to sit back and take it," she explained.
Professor Andrew Weaver believes that the media protocol is being used by the Canadian government to "instruct scientists to deliver a certain message, thereby taking the heat out of controversial topics".
He added: "You can't have an informed discussion if the science isn't allowed to be communicated. Public relations message number one is that you have to set the conversation. You don't want to have a conversation on someone else's terms. And this is now being applied to science on discussions about oil sands, climate and salmon."
( 'Controlling the Message' is a technique that was introduced in the U.S. during the G.W. Bush administration during the time Cheney was ravaging the environment. Parks staff in particular were muzzled )
