Counsel Frames Vaccine Injury as a Forbidden Topic in Canada ¶

0:05:10 · Clinician Silencing And Gaslighting · Shawn Buckley · Dean Allison

🤐 Shawn Buckley argues doctors, journalists, and MPs fear speaking about vaccine injury for fear of being labeled anti-vaxxers.
💔 He links yesterday’s testimony to moral injury: isolation, gaslighting, family alienation, and professional exclusion.
🌍 Buckley urges platforms worldwide to restream the inquiry so vaccine-injured voices are heard under oath.

Dr. Michelle Worton Sworn and Explains Why Stories Matter ¶

0:15:15 · Care Access And Protocols · Shawn Buckley · Dr. Michelle Worton

🤝 Worton, co-founder of CANRISE, says vaccine-injured Canadians are abandoned and walked alone for years.
🏥 The group runs peer support and keeps a secret list of doctors willing to treat vaccine injury without dismissal.
📋 She describes founding a nonprofit after finding no evidence-based peer support as a regulated health professional.

Worton’s Injury Onset After Mandated COVID Vaccination ¶

0:19:30 · Neurological Injuries · Shawn Buckley · Dr. Michelle Worton · Vienna Demeduk

💉 As a BC dental hygienist board member she was mandated; first dose caused tachycardia and chest tightness within an hour.
🧠 Second dose brought severe neurological onset within 48 hours: vision loss, burning legs, incontinence, tinnitus, and imbalance.
👩‍⚕️ Her first physician blamed the acute neurological cascade on menopause, which she calls medical gaslighting.

Brain Cysts, US Surgery, and Gatekept Canadian Care ¶

0:24:58 · Neurological Injuries · Dr. Michelle Worton · Shawn Buckley

🧬 She developed multiple cystic masses including a brain cyst causing compression and white-matter lesions.
✈️ Unable to get surgery in Canada, she sold her practice, exhausted savings, crowdfunded, and paid over $148,000 CAD for US brain surgery.
🚫 Specialists refuse her once vaccine onset is known; treatments available in Canada are gatekept and she waited years for a neurologist.

Photos Show Lost Career, Family Caregiving, and Surgery Scars ¶

🤫 VGH stroke chief privately said she would lose her license if she linked it to the vaccine; charts were heavily redacted.

Daily Limitations: Cane, Ataxia, Fatigue, and Death Book ¶

1:03:40 · Neurological Injuries · Shawn Buckley · Vienna Demeduk · Dean Allison

🦯 She now walks with a cane, has severe left-hand ataxia, numbness, and cannot feel her feet well.
😴 Post-stroke fatigue is invisible but crushing; doctors marvel she is alive after roughly 12 strokes.
📓 She keeps a “death book” of passwords and wishes because another stroke could occur at any moment.

Q&A: Why Demeduk Took the Shot and Family Impact ¶

1:11:41 · Mandates And Coercion · Dean Allison · Vienna Demeduk · Cameron Hitchcock · Shawn Buckley

💼 She did not want the vaccine but took one Moderna dose mainly to keep work and visit family amid travel rules.
👨‍👩‍👧 Family is supportive yet largely silent; relatives were urged to vaccinate to “protect mom” while she was in ICU.
🎤 She testifies for aphasic friends and others who cannot speak, calling VISP a colossal joke she will not re-appeal.

Cameron Hitchcock Sworn: Healthy 30-Year-Old on Dialysis ¶

1:17:20 · Multisystem Autonomic Injuries · Shawn Buckley · Cameron Hitchcock · Dean Allison · Vienna Demeduk

🩺 Hitchcock, now 35, had no prior illness; VISP accepts his case as vaccine injury and he dialyzes every other day.
✈️ Travel to Ottawa required arranging local dialysis; scheduling conflicts shifted his testimony day.
📚 Doctors call vaccine causation “plausible” when he presents literature, though resistance still exists.

Hitchcock’s Rapid Onset of Nephrotic Syndrome After Pfizer ¶

1:20:27 · Multisystem Autonomic Injuries · Shawn Buckley · Cameron Hitchcock

🎂 Three weeks after second Pfizer dose, on his 30th birthday, face and voice swelled; feet soon showed sock indentations.
🧪 ER found massive protein leak—nephrotic syndrome; nurses wept as kidneys failed and natural urination ceased within a week.
📈 24-hour urine protein hit an unprecedented 90 g (later 35 g); he was admitted for renal biopsy preparation.

Five-Month Hospital Nightmare: Prednisone, Thirst, and Immobility ¶

1:25:54 · Multisystem Autonomic Injuries · Cameron Hitchcock · Shawn Buckley

🏥 Hitchcock spent five months in hospital with repeated readmissions as nephrotic syndrome worsened and fluid overloaded his body.
💊 High-dose prednisone caused severe mood swings and thirst while Lasix and fluid limits left him desperately dehydrated.
🚑 By Canadian Thanksgiving he woke unable to sit up and had to be bear-hugged onto a stretcher by paramedics.

Blistered Feet, Bedside Debridement, and Permanent Dialysis ¶

1:29:49 · Multisystem Autonomic Injuries · Shawn Buckley · Cameron Hitchcock · Dean Allison · Michael Oesch

🦶 Extreme foot swelling and blistering required plastic surgeons to cut away over 30% of the surface area at the bedside.
💉 Steroid-resistant disease forced six-day-a-week dialysis that permanently shut down his remaining kidney function.
⏳ He remains on the deceased-donor list with a 12-year average wait and expects any future transplant to eventually fail.

Q&A: Did Doctors Link Hitchcock’s Injury to the Vaccine?¶

1:34:26 · Compensation Program Failures · Dean Allison · Cameron Hitchcock · Shawn Buckley

📚 A friend found peer-reviewed reports of post-vaccine nephrotic syndrome and EU investigations that Hitchcock shared with staff.
👨‍⚕️ One doctor printed medical literature supporting the vaccine link and a three-doctor panel unanimously approved his claim.
✅ He was formally approved under the vaccine injury program after a physician co-signed the application.

Q&A: How Brutal Was the VISP Compensation Process?¶

1:35:39 · Compensation Program Failures · Shawn Buckley · Cameron Hitchcock · Dean Allison

📄 Caseworkers reversed eligibility mid-leave, delayed payments a month, and left him without EI or VISP income while training for home dialysis.
💸 He cashed TFSA savings to survive; VISP later refused to process the claim and he is still waiting under VIAP.
⏱️ Approval itself took roughly a year and a half to two years from first application.

Q&A: How Does a Full-Time Worker Survive Without Income?¶

1:38:07 · Compensation Program Failures · Dean Allison · Cameron Hitchcock · Shawn Buckley

🚗 Balancing home hemodialysis, a two-hour daily commute and work left him dangerously sleep-deprived until he finally took leave.
📉 VIAP still cannot promise income-replacement timing before EI runs out and told him to beg for LTD.
🏥 He also flags dialysis-clinic staffing cuts and an institutionalized intolerance of chronically ill workers.

Nathalie Barbe Sworn: Active Grandmother Forced to Vaccinate ¶

1:42:05 · Mandates And Coercion · Nathalie Barbe · Myriam Bohémier · Cameron Hitchcock · Shawn Buckley

🎂 On her 50th birthday Barbe, mother of four and grandmother of six, is sworn and describes her pre-pandemic active life.
🛡️ She worked security in hospitals, long-term care, grocery stores and vaccination clinics and received three Moderna doses in late 2021.

Medical Abandonment, Spike-Protein Proof, and Lost Autonomy ¶

1:57:13 · Care Access And Protocols · Nathalie Barbe · Dean Allison

🚫 Long-time family doctor called her a rare complex case yet offered no answers; she was told simply to accept a new reality.
🧪 A new physician finally ordered a spike-protein test that returned positive, confirming what she had claimed for years.
♿ Approved disabled by Retraite Québec since 2024, she has lost autonomy, weight and the ability to comb her own hair.

Michael Oesch Affirmed: Cross-Canada Walker Now in Long-Term Care ¶

2:05:43 · Family And Social Impact · Shawn Buckley · Michael Oesch

🚶 Former film artist who walked Toronto–Labrador and Toronto–Vancouver was fully healthy and medication-free before vaccination.
🚌 He crowdfunded nearly $4,000 for a wheelchair van and assistant, then offered spare seats to other injured witnesses.
❤️ He opens by thanking his wife Saskia and stressing that families suffer alongside the injured.

Fourth Dose Triggers Spinal Lesion, Spasms and Wheelchair Life ¶

2:13:46 · Neurological Injuries · Michael Oesch · Shawn Buckley

🦵 Thirty-six hours after his October 2022 Moderna dose his leg dragged; days later he blacked out while driving a school bus.
🧲 MRI revealed a 2.8 cm spinal lesion near the brain that his neurologist said should only follow major trauma.
😖 Nightly seven-hour sciatic spasms, migraines requiring ice to the point of frostbite, and progressive paralysis followed.

Denied Neuro-Rehab, Secret Artist Protocol, and Naturopathic Gains ¶

2:18:07 · Care Access And Protocols · Michael Oesch · Shawn Buckley · Dean Allison

🔒 An ER doctor slipped him the Artist Protocol under condition of secrecy; many physicians believed vaccine injury but refused to chart it.
⏳ Neuro-rehab twice refused him because the injury was no longer “acute,” even though he could still walk at the six-month mark.
💊 Augmented NAC plus methylene blue reopened his hands within days and let him stand with assistance within two months.

Q&A: Does Government Support the Spirit of the Vaccine-Injured?¶

2:28:12 · Compensation Program Failures · Shawn Buckley · Michael Oesch

📉 Oesch sees almost no encouragement; VISP denial rates exceeded ordinary insurance and felt designed to reject claims.
📋 His own file ignored WHO causality standards and relied on a single mismatched 2021 gadolinium study.
🔄 He hopes the Public Health Agency will reverse the culture of dismissal now that it runs the program.

Q&A: Should Alternative Therapies Be Encouraged for the Injured?¶

2:30:30 · Care Access And Protocols · Shawn Buckley · Michael Oesch · Dean Allison · Jasmeet Grewal

🦠 Oesch compares today’s stigma to the early AIDS epidemic when shame blocked research funding.
🔬 No allopathic cure exists for mitochondrial myopathy or Long COVID; the base dysfunction is being ignored.

Jasmeet Grewal Sworn: Elite Athlete Reduced to Feeding Pumps ¶

2:32:54 · Neurological Injuries · Shawn Buckley · Jasmeet Grewal · Dean Allison · Michael Oesch

⚾ At 31 the business-development manager played multiple softball, basketball, soccer and golf leagues and danced at a Raptors halftime show.
💉 Two months after his second Pfizer dose extreme leg cramping, stiffness and tingling began and steadily worsened.
🧠 Family doctor and first neurologist dismissed symptoms as psychological; an ER later labeled it functional neurological disorder.

EMG Reveals Total Demyelination; Six Months in Hospital, Never Walks Again ¶

2:44:45 · Neurological Injuries · Shawn Buckley · Jasmeet Grewal · Dean Allison · Michael Oesch

⚡ A cancelled-appointment EMG on 29 April 2022 showed severe whole-body demyelination and immediate hospitalization.
🦵 After six months he never regained lower-limb nerve function and lives with constant burning pain and hand tremors.
🍽️ A year later intestinal failure forced 12-hour daily TPN and gastro-jejunal tube feeds; he still vomits bile every few hours.

Q&A: Do Doctors Support Grewal’s Vaccine-Injury Claim?¶

2:49:55 · Compensation Program Failures · Shawn Buckley · Dean Allison · Jasmeet Grewal · Michael Oesch

📝 Clinicians would only call the link a “strong possibility” based on timeline; none would confirm or deny.
❌ VISP denied the claim, asserting an unidentified intervening cause between the second dose and symptom onset.
📤 He is re-appealing under the new Impact Assistance Program after transfer delays.

Q&A: What Was Grewal’s Experience Inside the Compensation Program?¶

2:51:16 · Compensation Program Failures · Shawn Buckley · Jasmeet Grewal

⌛ The process was endless waiting and unanswered follow-ups; the denial letter felt unbelievable.
📚 Reviewers appeared to ignore 80–100 pages of complete inpatient records covering every treatment attempted.
😕 No further evidence was requested, leaving him convinced the evaluation was never thorough.

Q&A: How Burdensome Was Assembling 80–100 Pages of Records?¶

2:52:41 · Compensation Program Failures · Dean Allison · Jasmeet Grewal · Michael Oesch · Shawn Buckley

📑 The package contained notes from every physician during his entire six-month admission plus all failed treatments.
👨‍👩‍👧 Sisters and partner spent months chasing and organizing the full historical file after discharge.
🚆 Even attending the hearing required a train journey so feeding-pump batteries would not die mid-session.

Kelly Shorkey Sworn: Multiple Agencies Confirm Injury, VISP Does Not ¶

2:55:23 · Compensation Program Failures · Shawn Buckley · Kelly Shorkey

⚖️ Shorkey is sworn in as counsel notes BC Medical Health Officer, Canada Life, CPP and WorkSafe BC all accept her vaccine injury.
🚫 She confirms the Vaccine Injury Support Program alone refuses to recognize the injury.
🏃 Formerly a full-time community nurse who paddleboarded, hiked and took no medications, she was highly active before vaccination.

Debilitating Itch, Lesions and Bell’s Palsy After Pfizer Doses ¶

2:57:09 · Neurological Injuries · Kelly Shorkey · Shawn Buckley · Jasmeet Grewal

💉 Two Pfizer doses produced neck itching within 48 hours, three back lesions and year-long whole-body itch so severe she could not wear clothes.
😷 After a third Pfizer shot she developed right-leg weakness, then overnight facial collapse diagnosed as Bell’s palsy; prednisone was obtained just inside the 72-hour window.
📸 Photos show pre-injury symmetry versus inability to close an eye or smile on the affected side, plus later synkinesis.

Polycranial Nerve Damage, Vision Loss and One-Activity Days ¶

3:04:45 · Neurological Injuries · Shawn Buckley · Kelly Shorkey · Jasmeet Grewal

⚡ Right-sided limb weakness, collapsed foot, trigeminal neuralgia and damage to cranial nerves 5, 7, 9 and 10 leave her living near incontinence.
👁️ Convergence insufficiency means her eyes no longer work together, so she will never again administer medication.
🛏️ She can manage only one daily task—shower or appointment—and testifying will wipe her out for days.

Q&A: What Has Been Shorkey’s Experience with Medical Care?¶

3:10:34 · Clinician Silencing And Gaslighting · Shawn Buckley · Kelly Shorkey · Dean Allison

🏥 After 55 specialists she is still being assessed; neurologists discharge her saying they “don’t know enough” and refuse vaccine-related learning.
🧠 A second opinion labeled her condition functional neurological disorder—“the woman’s disease”—and the doctor refused to “get into the politics.”
😢 She cries before every specialist visit because she now knows more about vaccine injury than the doctors deciding her case.

Q&A: What Home Support Does Shorkey Have?¶

3:16:47 · Family And Social Impact · Dean Allison · Jasmeet Grewal · Kelly Shorkey

🏠 She remains completely independent despite severe limits.
💔 Her brother, who may have had long COVID or vaccine injury, died tragically a year and a half earlier.
🤝 Friends and apartment neighbours form her supportive “made-up family.”

Thor Hart Sworn: GM Ultimatum Ends Bodybuilding Career ¶

3:17:49 · Mandates And Coercion · Shawn Buckley · Thor Hart · Jasmeet Grewal

📜 Hart is sworn; counsel stresses he never had COVID and was a 55-year-old GM group leader, father of four and five-day-a-week bodybuilder.
💪 Weeks earlier he was incline-benching 150-lb dumbbells and training his sons; he also held senior kung-fu rank.
📄 A General Motors terminate-or-vaccinate letter forced his first Pfizer dose in November 2021.

Three Days After Second Shot: Crawling to the Bathroom ¶

3:21:16 · Multisystem Autonomic Injuries · Thor Hart · Shawn Buckley · Daniel Freiheit

🩹 Second Pfizer dose produced escalating joint pain “like glass”; on day three he could not stand and had to crawl to the bathroom.
🏥 ER recorded adverse drug reaction, chuckled “you have arthritis now,” and sent him home with OTC meds.
🩸 A later ER doctor saw muscle breakdown on bloodwork, called it an extreme vaccine reaction and urged referral to a vaccine-injury clinic.

Dropped by Doctor, Denied Accommodation, Permanently Disabled ¶

3:26:00 · Clinician Silencing And Gaslighting · Thor Hart · Shawn Buckley · Daniel Freiheit · Jasmeet Grewal

📉 Family doctor diagnosed vaccine injury then discharged him as “out of area,” leaving only ER Toradol patches for over a year.
🚫 GM’s no-cane policy refused accommodation and forced him onto long-term disability; he now walks 5–10 minutes with brace and cane.
🔥 Flare-ups still produce extreme swelling and a “roadshow of pain” through shoulders, hips, knees and feet.

Q&A: How Has the Injury Affected Hart Mentally and with Doctors?¶

3:33:10 · Clinician Silencing And Gaslighting · Shawn Buckley · Daniel Freiheit · Thor Hart · Dean Allison · Jasmeet Grewal

😤 An MP’s posts that pivot from injury counts to “vaccine hesitancy” re-traumatize him; outreach is met with silence.
🏷️ Despite charts listing vaccine injury and full vaccination, clinicians gaslight him as diabetic or “anti-vaxxer” and even “Trump supporter.”
🙏 He never expected to be heard and thanks the inquiry for ending years of feeling forgotten.

Q&A: How Has Hart’s Injury Affected His Family Daily Life?¶

3:39:48 · Family And Social Impact · Dean Allison · Thor Hart · Shawn Buckley · Daniel Freiheit · Jasmeet Grewal

👨‍👦 His son watched him writhe in a hospital wheelchair only a month after they had lifted weights together.
😢 Children saw him crawl—and sometimes fail—to reach the bathroom; he cried that this was not the father he wanted to be.
💞 His wife has become full-time caregiver during flares, a role neither chose.

Daniel Freiheit Sworn: ATIP Exposes VISP Contract Redactions ¶

3:42:08 · Compensation Program Failures · Shawn Buckley · Jasmeet Grewal · Daniel Freiheit

⚖️ Ontario corporate lawyer Freiheit affirms he will tell the truth and describes years helping vaccine-injured clients with VISP claims.
📄 A 2022 ATIP returned the federal–administrator contract with appeal-process and transparency sections blanked out; even the schedule title was redacted.
💸 Unredacted budget lines showed roughly 63 % of program funds allocated to administration—far above WSIB or motor-vehicle funds.

Closed Budget and Litigation-Management Appeal Design ¶

3:46:58 · Compensation Program Failures · Jasmeet Grewal · Shawn Buckley

🔒 Fixed contribution envelope plus high admin share created an inherent incentive to delay or deny payouts.
📋 The later-unredacted “litigation management plan” scheduled appeals expressly to slow suits against PHAC and the administrator.
⏱️ Contract language allowed resubmission whenever new reliable evidence arose, yet claimants were told of only short appeal windows.

Q&A: What Is It Like Helping Clients Navigate VISP?¶

3:52:18 · Compensation Program Failures · Jasmeet Grewal · Dean Allison · Daniel Freiheit · Shawn Buckley

📁 Demanding records direct from overwhelmed providers instead of sworn affidavits causes major delays; court standards should suffice.
🔄 High case-manager turnover produced confusion and lost files, though PHAC appears to recognize the problem.
🆕 New VIAP removes income and death-benefit caps and reopens administratively denied files, yet medical-review-board membership remains opaque.

Q&A: What Reforms Would Improve the New Program?¶

3:56:14 · Compensation Program Failures · Dean Allison · Daniel Freiheit · Jasmeet Grewal · Shawn Buckley

📎 Simplify chain-of-custody so patients can submit records by affidavit, easing burdens on doctors and hospitals.
👩‍⚕️ Establish and externally certify a medical review board whose members’ credentials can be verified without public naming.
🔍 Every other Canadian tribunal identifies decision-makers so bias or competence can be challenged; secrecy here speaks volumes.

Lunch Break: Reading Names of the Vaccine-Injured into the Record ¶

3:58:28 · Inquiry Proceedings · Dean Allison · Shawn Buckley · Ron Johnson

🍽️ Chair announces lunch recess from 12:30 to 1:15 while the feed continues.
📖 Teresa Buckley begins reading hundreds of submitted names—living and deceased—into the parliamentary record.
🕯️ The litany includes parents speaking for children and spouses speaking for the dead, underscoring the scale of reported harm.

Lavigne Interviews Senator Ron Johnson on Media Capture ¶

4:13:16 · Media Censorship And Capture · Jason Lavigne · Ron Johnson

📺 Johnson is unsurprised by empty mainstream cameras; his April report on hidden vaccine-safety signals received zero legacy-news coverage.
💊 He attributes silence to Big Pharma capture—U.S. drug ads buy narrative, not just products—and to the BBC-led Trusted News Initiative.
🎤 He praises Joe Rogan and Aaron Rodgers for surviving vilification and notes long-form clips still surface truth.

Censorship, Convoy Prosecutions and the Stakes for Free Press ¶

4:17:43 · Media Censorship And Capture · Jason Lavigne · Ron Johnson · Dean Allison

📵 Facebook’s deletion of injury support groups, Johnson says, has blood on its hands and contributed to suicides; only a successful state AG lawsuit forced change.
🚛 Continued Canadian prosecution of convoy organizers does not surprise him—government is power and power corrupts; Canada and Australia were worse than the U.S.
📰 If Bills C-11 and C-18 extinguish independent media, freedom itself is lost; the remedy is to stop electing “liberal progressives.”

Johnson: Canada’s Thin Edge on Injury Compensation ¶

4:20:55 · Compensation Program Failures · Jason Lavigne · Ron Johnson

💸 Johnson says Canada is only slightly ahead of the U.S. on compensating the injection-injured because America has done virtually nothing.
🚫 He stresses the injured still cannot get treated and are not being compensated across the board.
📉 He refuses to praise either system, calling the neglect of the injured systemic.

Theresa Tam Search and the Peter Marks VAERS Algorithm Scandal ¶

4:21:29 · Pharmacovigilance Failures · Jason Lavigne · Ron Johnson

🔎 Lavigne asks Johnson to search his 11-million-page archive for Dr. Theresa Tam and provincial health officials; Johnson pledges quick term searches and release to Canada.
💣 Johnson details his April report: Peter Marks was warned the VAERS analysis algorithm would hide mass safety signals by comparing Pfizer to Moderna.
📰 He says agencies kept the flawed algorithm, denied signals including cardiac death and stroke, and legacy media still will not cover the scandal.

Re-Interview: Media Capture, TNI and the COVID Cartel ¶

4:29:10 · Media Censorship And Capture · Jason Lavigne · Ron Johnson · Dean Allison

📺 Johnson is unsurprised no mainstream cameras are at the inquiry, citing total non-coverage of his Marks report as proof of captured media.
💊 He lumps Biden officials, Big Pharma, health agencies and media as a “COVID cartel,” with pharma ads buying narrative rather than selling drugs.
🛡️ The Trusted News Initiative, he says, shifted from election “misinformation” to COVID and coined “malinformation” for inconvenient truth.

Rogan, Long-Form Media and Facebook’s Blood on Its Hands ¶

4:32:09 · Media Censorship And Capture · Ron Johnson · Jason Lavigne

🎙️ Johnson praises Joe Rogan and Aaron Rodgers for speaking out; media attacks failed because Rogan’s audience trusted his homework.
📱 He hopes long-form unedited interviews survive, even if clips get segmented, so long as context is preserved.
☠️ Facebook shutting injured support groups, he argues, cost people solace and contributed to suicides; change came only after the Missouri-Louisiana suit exposed White House pressure.

Convoy Prosecutions, Empty Seats and Extinguishing Independent Media ¶

4:34:41 · Media Censorship And Capture · Jason Lavigne · Ron Johnson · Shawn Buckley

🚛 Ongoing appeals against Tamara Lich and Chris Barber do not surprise Johnson; he calls government power corrupt and says Canada and Australia were worse than the U.S.
🪑 He thanks the few MPs who showed up, notes empty seats are common out of session, and says CBC will eventually be forced to cover the inquiry.
📜 On Bills C-11 and C-18 crushing independent media, he warns that without a free press Canadians will lose freedom and should not elect liberal progressives.

CanRise19: Left Behind After a Health Canada–Approved Product ¶

4:41:04 · Family And Social Impact · James Freeland

💔 A witness describes lost independence, quality of life and years of pleading for treatment after a Health Canada–approved product, speaking for CanRise19 and silent injured Canadians.
🤝 CanRise19 offers peer support, science resources, advocacy and a pending medical-care fund where government supports failed.
⚠️ Five years of stigma, gaslighting and a failing VISP/VIAP trap leave some considering MAiD as the only “care” offered; silence on the Hill must end.

Afternoon Session Opens: Dr. Jessica Rose Sworn In ¶

4:48:24 · Inquiry Proceedings · Dean Allison · Shawn Buckley · Dr. Jessica Rose

⚖️ Chair Allison turns the afternoon over to counsel Shawn Buckley, who swears in Canadian researcher Dr. Jessica Rose.
🎓 Buckley outlines her applied-math, immunology, computational-biology and dual postdoc credentials and VAERS/VISP research.
🙏 Rose thanks the chair, counsel, attending MPs and especially the injured, saying the inquiry will resonate worldwide.

Rose: V-Safe FOIA Data and a ~26× Underreporting Factor ¶

4:50:47 · Pharmacovigilance Failures · Dr. Jessica Rose

📲 CDC’s v-safe app data, released only after ICAN FOIA, showed nearly 800,000 of 10 million users needed medical care; only ~30,500 linked to VAERS.
✖️ Rose calculates an underreporting factor of about 26 and tells the room to multiply every VAERS figure she shows by at least that.
🧮 MIT colleagues’ preprint found ~1% with prolonged disability or severe events, implying over 5 million debilitating injuries among 272 million U.S. dose recipients.

Global AE Surge, Bradford Hill and the RotaShield Precedent ¶

4:53:15 · Pharmacovigilance Failures · Dr. Jessica Rose

🌍 WHO/Uppsala reports jumped from under half a million (2016–2020, all vaccines) to almost 6 million in 2021—a 1,300%+ safety signal.
📋 She lists Bradford Hill criteria and the short list of acknowledged causal links (myocarditis, TTS, GBS, anaphylaxis) that agencies already accept.
🛑 RotaShield was suspended after only 15 intussusception VAERS reports in 1998–99; she asks why a far larger early COVID death signal brought no similar action.

U.S. CICP Rejection Rates and Canada’s Secret VISP Design ¶

4:57:54 · Compensation Program Failures · Dr. Jessica Rose

🇺🇸 HHS CICP took 13,333 COVID claims—27× its first decade—yet completed few reviews and rejected over 97% per REACT19.
🔒 ATIP files show Canada’s no-fault VISP/VIAP was planned in secret, run first by Oxaro then PHAC, with conflicts and anti-compensation arguments redacted.
🎯 Documents frame the program as aligning with G7 counterparts amid mandatory vaccines and as a tool to “combat” vaccine hesitancy after a Sept 2020 poll showed ~60% were not strong supporters.

VISP Numbers, Appeals and PHAC’s Per-Dose Framing Trick ¶

5:03:59 · Compensation Program Failures · Dr. Jessica Rose

📊 Public VISP figures show 3,557 claims received (an underestimate) and only 252 approved (~7%); of 551 appeals, ~30% assessed and ~2% approved.
🏥 PHAC/CAEFISS/Vigilance report roughly 1 in 9,000 serious AEs, with myocarditis and death listed as temporally related.
🪄 Presenting rates per 102 million doses instead of ~32 million people makes rates look smaller—a presentation choice Rose calls a familiar data “magic trick.”

Q&A: Is the VAERS Underreporting Factor Closer to 30 or 100?¶

5:07:59 · Pharmacovigilance Failures · Shawn Buckley · Dr. Jessica Rose · Marylou Lavalle

❓ Buckley asks whether the v-safe-derived ~27 factor understates underreporting versus the Harvard Lazarus ~100× figure, given unknown app uptake.
📐 Rose replies COVID-era awareness likely lowers the factor; her own Pfizer Phase 3–based calculation yields about 31, aligning with ~30.
📈 Even 30× applied to nearly a million VAERS reports, she notes, still implies enormous real-world harm.

Why Canadian Death-Reporting Rates Lag VAERS and Peer Systems ¶

5:10:00 · Pharmacovigilance Failures · Dr. Jessica Rose

🇨🇦 Same products, yet Canadian serious-AE and death rates per dose sit far below U.S. VAERS and also below Australia, EudraVigilance and Yellow Card.
🧱 Rose attributes part of the gap to Canada’s hybrid passive-active, heavily vetted systems that reject or stall citizen and clinician reports.
⚖️ U.S. law mandates clinician reporting of suspected vaccine injuries (with penalties for false reports), which she says likely makes VAERS more complete—and more accurate.

Bungalow-to-Skyscraper: 2021 VAERS Anomaly vs Flu Controls ¶

5:13:29 · Pharmacovigilance Failures · Dr. Jessica Rose · Shawn Buckley

📉 From 1990–2020, VAERS reports tracked authorized vaccine types at ~23,000 AEs/year; a “normal” 2021 continuation would be ~53,000.
🏗️ Observed 2021 reports surged to 753,047—an unexplained anomaly still unacknowledged by HHS/CDC/FDA owners of the data.
💉 Time-matched COVID vs influenza comparison shows 118× more AEs and 6.2× more AE types despite only 2.3× more COVID doses—evidence of non-proportional, comprehensive harm.

Canadian Rows Inside Foreign VAERS and a Seven-Day Temporal Signal ¶

5:22:22 · Pharmacovigilance Failures · Dr. Jessica Rose

📁 Foreign VAERS holds millions of manufacturer-submitted reports; nearly 9,000 COVID-related rows are Canada-sourced.
⏱️ Most serious Canadian AEs, including deaths, cluster before day 7—the same temporality CDC once used to pull RotaShield.
🚨 Almost half of Canada-sourced VAERS reports are coded serious (vs a 10–15% handbook norm), with 71% of SAEs within seven days and 65% after dose one alone.

“Millions of Lives Saved” Rests on Fragile Modeling ¶

5:25:54 · Pharmacovigilance Failures · Dr. Jessica Rose · Shawn Buckley

🧮 Rose, a mathematical modeler, says the ubiquitous “20 million deaths prevented” claim traces mainly to one modeling paper full of IFR and variant assumptions.
❌ Models only guide possible futures; they cannot prove shots saved millions “beyond a shadow of doubt,” and a single model claiming shots kill would be laughed out of the room.
🔓 Liability-free COVID products remove safety incentives; she frames ignored, undercounted, thinly compensated signals as incomplete public-health policy driven by markets, not care.

Rose Closes: Say No Next Time; Inquiry Thanks ¶

5:31:19 · Inquiry Proceedings · Dr. Jessica Rose · Dean Allison · James Freeland · Shawn Buckley

🗣️ She ends urging national and personal sovereignty—“just say no” when authorities repeat the playbook—and says she works for the injured and for humanity in an existential crisis.
📴 Buckley and Allison note pre-COVID online adverse-reaction reporting vanished during COVID, forcing provincial gatekeepers and short-circuiting the early-warning system; Rose calls that intentional pre-thought.
👏 Counsel and chair thank Rose for original research and traveling a great distance; a January 2021 Moderna anaphylaxis death constituent story is entered as context.

Q&A: What Legislation Would Force Clinicians to Report Injuries?¶

5:36:00 · Pharmacovigilance Failures · Shawn Buckley · Dr. Jessica Rose · Dean Allison

❓ An MP likens U.S. mandatory clinician VAERS reporting to Alberta child-protection duty-to-report laws and asks what Canadian statute would stop specialists from pushing victims back.
🧠 Rose says guilt-tripping must end and disbelief at the top lets doctors deny vaccine injury even in anaphylaxis, escaping any duty to report.
⏸️ Buckley cuts the thread short to protect remaining time for a waiting vaccine-injured witness, while praising Rose’s first-time data.

James Freeland Sworn: Portrait of His Mother Donna ¶

5:39:20 · Inquiry Proceedings · Shawn Buckley · James Freeland · Dean Allison

📖 Counsel swears James Freeland and establishes he will testify about his mother, Donna Lee Stevens Freeland—“Ma”—who did not have COVID.
💖 James describes her as a loving single mother who raised him in social housing, kept him from becoming a “statistic,” and was the kind, joyful life of every room.
📸 Photos show her smiling with her dog Dudley and visiting Edmonton when James’s son was 11 days old; type 2 diabetes was well managed with no real limits on her life.

Pressure to Vaccinate the Immunocompromised Son and Mother ¶

5:44:49 · Mandates And Coercion · James Freeland

📢 Wall-to-wall ads and calls telling James—an MS patient and essential health-and-safety worker—that he would die if he caught COVID pushed him to take dose one.
👪 His compliance then drove Ma, terrified of harming her immunocompromised son, to take her first shot; both had a limp arm for a day that resolved.
📅 Second doses were scheduled about three weeks later; James felt little after his, while Ma went to Carmichael Arena on July 5 for hers.

July 5–7: Collapse After Dose Two and Hospital Gatekeeping ¶

5:48:36 · Care Access And Protocols · James Freeland · Shawn Buckley

📞 Still in the 15-minute observation, Ma called James: racing heart, anxiety, sweating, nausea; the nurse called it a common side effect and sent her home as symptoms worsened.
🤒 At home she deteriorated—vomiting, diarrhea, fever, incontinence, near-zero energy—while COVID tests James supplied were negative.
🚫 Hospital staff repeatedly told them not to bring her in because of a COVID influx and to treat “flu-like” symptoms with rest and fluids as she grew weaker by July 7.

Ambulance on Scene and Death from a “Hard Hit to the Heart”¶

5:53:18 · Cardiac And Vascular Injuries · James Freeland · Marylou Lavalle · Shawn Buckley · Dean Allison

🚑 James and his son race over; the ambulance sits at the house working on Ma for ~20 minutes, then leaves the long way through construction—signs a 17-year rescuer reads as grim.
💔 At hospital a doctor says she has passed from a “hard hit to the heart,” insists it was not a heart attack, and cannot explain the phrase.
❓ James repeatedly asks what that means and receives only the same non-diagnosis as the testimony window ends.

Ashes in 24 Hours and No Autopsy ¶

5:55:13 · Cancer And Excess Mortality · James Freeland · Shawn Buckley

💔 James Freeland says the doctor only called his mother’s death a “hard hit to the heart” and refused an autopsy without police suspicion.
⚱️ He received Donna’s ashes in under 24 hours at the height of the pandemic, far faster than any prior family cremation.
🏠 Her ashes remain in the house because he cannot bury them while believing she was killed and he can do nothing about it.

Silenced Grief and a Collapsed VISP Claim ¶

5:56:29 · Compensation Program Failures · Shawn Buckley · James Freeland · Dean Allison

🗣️ He says this is the most he has ever been able to speak about the loss, having been unable to talk to friends or family.
📋 A VISP attempt failed when officials said there was no evidence and no doctor would sign after her death.
🙏 Chair Dean Allison thanks him for the courage to speak publicly so answers might eventually follow.

Marylou Lavalle Sworn: Portrait of Dominic ¶

6:00:37 · Inquiry Proceedings · Shawn Buckley · Marylou Lavalle

📖 Marylou Lavalle is sworn and introduced as Dominic’s wife of 23 years and high-school sweetheart.
📸 Wedding, family “Three Musketeers,” and apple-picking photos frame their humble, travel-loving life with son Michael.
💪 She describes Dominic as an outgoing, handy 48-year-old HVAC tech who cooked, hiked, and protected everyone around him.

Pfizer Shot, “Feeling Off,” and May 11 Seizure ¶

6:07:15 · Neurological Injuries · Shawn Buckley · Marylou Lavalle

💉 Dominic took a first Pfizer dose on April 12, 2021; 16 days later he pulled over with blurred vision and dizziness.
🩹 Mild abdominal pain, a bruise on the non-vaccinated arm, leg oddities, and Mother’s Day headaches followed while he never saw a doctor.
🚨 On May 11 she woke to a grand mal seizure, foaming and breathless, called 911, and felt utter helplessness with son Michael.

Brain Clots, ICU Gatekeeping, and a Promise to Speak ¶

6:13:37 · Cardiac And Vascular Injuries · Shawn Buckley · Marylou Lavalle · James Freeland

🧠 ER imaging showed his brain full of clots; he was intubated and life-and-limb transferred when Orange Ambulance was backlogged.
🚫 COVID rules barred son Michael from ICU while a neurologist first asked about AstraZeneca, then called him “unlucky” CVST after Pfizer proof.
🎤 Over five ICU days she promised Dominic she would be his voice so he would not become a silent statistic.

Q&A: Did Doctors Document or Withdraw the Vaccine Link?¶

6:19:36 · Clinician Silencing And Gaslighting · Dean Allison · Shawn Buckley · Marylou Lavalle · James Freeland

📝 Marylou says the neurologist withdrew the AstraZeneca suggestion; a hematologist still insisted the post-Pfizer timing be reported.
🍀 After she produced the Pfizer receipt, clinicians said there was no data and he simply had “bad luck.”
🤝 Counsel and the chair share parallel injury experiences and thank her for forcing public questions.

Nicole Morier Sworn: Abigail the Earth Angel ¶

6:23:28 · Inquiry Proceedings · Shawn Buckley · Nicole Morier · James Freeland

📖 Nicole Morier is sworn as mother of only child Abigail, whose GP later reported vaccine injury on the federal VISP form.
🏅 Abigail, 24, was a multi-sport athlete, cardiology technologist with distinction, and mentor who saved her grandfather’s life.
👼 They lived as “Three Musketeers” with Nicole’s mother; tomorrow would have been Abigail’s 28th birthday.

Mandate Over Intuition: Two Pfizer Doses ¶

6:31:09 · Mandates And Coercion · Shawn Buckley · James Freeland · Nicole Morier

🔮 Abigail felt something bad would happen if she took the shots and had drug hypersensitivity, so mother and daughter planned to refuse.
🏥 After a mild COVID recovery and natural immunity, AHS mandated two doses by October 15 to keep her cardiology job.
💉 Employer and lifelong doctor denied exemptions; told the shots were safe, she took Pfizer on Sept 15 and Oct 15, 2021.

Explosive NUT Carcinoma and a Six-Week Decline ¶

6:35:10 · Cancer And Excess Mortality · Nicole Morier · Marylou Lavalle · Shawn Buckley

🫁 In March 2023 extreme lung and neck pain led to a CT showing a right-lung tumor, collapsed lobes, chest mass shoving the heart, and huge nodes.
⚡ Oncologists called the growth unprecedented—doubling in two weeks, equal to a decade of typical cancer—diagnosing ultra-rare NUT carcinoma.
🩸 Platelets crashed to 6, a 24-hour nosebleed, chemo triggered organ failure, and she died May 2 after Nicole held her through a death coma.

Photos, VISP Form, and Doctors Threatened Over Exemptions ¶

6:44:50 · Clinician Silencing And Gaslighting · Shawn Buckley · Nicole Morier · James Freeland · Dean Allison

📷 Graduation, last birthday, oxygen-hallway walks, pre-death bloating, chest-tube, and four-month before/after photos show the collapse.
📄 Abigail’s doctor completed VISP papers writing “Nut carcinoma post-COVID-19 vaccine” and noting the employer mandate.
⚠️ That same doctor admitted telling Abigail the shots were safe because associations threatened loss of license for exemptions.

Julie Ivan Sworn: From Ultrarunner to Spinal Lesion ¶

6:53:04 · Neurological Injuries · Shawn Buckley · Marylou Lavalle · Julie Ivan · Dean Allison · James Freeland · Nicole Morier

📖 Julie Ivan is sworn; VISP-recognized Moderna injury after a hyper-fit life of 18–20 km mail routes and Round the Bay runs.
🦵 Days after a June 30, 2021 second Moderna dose, numbness climbed from feet to bra line with loss of bathroom sensation.
🧲 St. Mike’s MRI found a spinal lesion from vaccine-triggered immune attack; massive prednisone followed and pharmacies balked at the dose.

Progressive Lesions, Burning Feet, and Daily Limits ¶

6:59:10 · Neurological Injuries · Shawn Buckley · Julie Ivan · Dean Allison

🧠 Neurologists say the damage is done; a new brain lesion has appeared and sensory shocks now hit hands, head, and torso.
🔥 About 500 feet of walking brings burning soles and numb toes; hand dexterity is so poor buttons need help.
😴 Severe fatigue caps useful mornings; she works through pain inside Canada Post after leaving outdoor carrying.

Q&A: Family Life, Stigma, and Workplace Accommodations ¶

7:04:38 · Family And Social Impact · Eva Caven · Shawn Buckley · James Freeland · Dean Allison · Marylou Lavalle

👨‍👩‍👧 Ivan still pushed her teens to take dose two, calling herself a rarity—harder now that she doubts the “greater good.”
🤐 She must preface every disclosure with “I’m not an anti-vaxxer” and often wonders whether to speak at all.
🏤 Canada Post moved her from plant lifting to a Beamsville retail leadhand role; the chair thanks her for traveling to testify.

7:08:26 · Neurological Injuries · Dean Allison · James Freeland · Eva Caven · Marylou Lavalle

📖 Eva Caven, 68, 42-year RN, is sworn; husband Peter supports her as she recounts a March 26, 2021 Pfizer dose.
👁️ A March 31 checkup was 20/20; on April 4 the eye reddened, filled with blood, and showed baffling “snow globe” findings.
🔁 Prednisone cycles, vitrectomy, retinal hole, and corneal damage left her with only shadows (20/400) and early retirement.

Five-Year Poker-Hot Pain and Lost Friendships ¶

7:15:19 · Family And Social Impact · Dean Allison · Eva Caven · Marylou Lavalle · Shawn Buckley · Jennifer Britain

🔥 Unmanaged inflammation feels like a red-hot poker; prednisone calms it but spikes eye pressure in a cat-and-mouse fight.
🚫 She cannot drive at night, tires reading with one eye, quit tennis, and left nursing early from visual fatigue.
💔 Family is supportive yet some friends drift when the cause is named vaccine injury; doctors treat “uveitis” in silence and she skipped VISP.

Q&A: Former Colleagues and Permission to Speak ¶

7:22:12 · Family And Social Impact · Shawn Buckley · Eva Caven · Dean Allison · Jannine Duffy · Jennifer Britain

👩‍⚕️ Caven has little contact with former RN colleagues after four years and is building a new community circle.

From 4 km Walks to Numb Thumb After Moderna ¶

7:25:18 · Neurological Injuries · Dean Allison · Jannine Duffy · Jennifer Britain · Charles Hoffe

🚶 Before vaccination, 66-year-old Jannine walked 2 km to and from grocery work, stood all day, then cooked and gardened.
💉 On May 29, 2021 she took a Moderna shot, worked the same shift, and felt arm pain with lasting thumb numbness.
🧪 Antibody testing had shown she never had COVID, so the family did not initially link symptoms to the shot.

Blue Fingers, Purple Lesions, and Crystal Pain ¶

7:28:42 · Cardiac And Vascular Injuries · Jannine Duffy · Dean Allison · Eva Caven · Jennifer Britain

🔵 Fingers and toes turned blue; a doctor warned she could lose digits to what looked like gangrene and rushed neurology.
💎 Tiny purple blood-blister lesions migrated under nails, erupted as coarse-salt crystals, and caused telephone-pole-level pain.
📸 Photos showed blue digits and a toe wound that became a gaping hole exposing bone for about nine months.

Second Shot, Collapse, and Walking Only Backward ¶

7:34:00 · Mandates And Coercion · Dean Allison · Jannine Duffy · Jennifer Britain

📉 Within weeks she could not lift milk, stay on her feet five minutes, or return to work as weakness and burning calves grew.
🏥 ER and clinic staff still urged a second Moderna dose the morning after an all-night ER stay for blue, painful fingers.
⬅️ Within 36–48 hours she texted she could not move, clung to walls, and could only shuffle backward down three flights.

Destroyed Hips, Walker Life, and Caregiver Ruin ¶

7:39:43 · Cardiac And Vascular Injuries · Dean Allison · Charles Hoffe · Jennifer Britain · Jannine Duffy

🦴 Hip X-rays showed circulation-destroyed joints surgeons said looked like a decade of damage though she walked well six months earlier.

📄 Autopsy after months cited heart, lung, and liver issues with bacterial pneumonia as ultimate cause though he was not sick days before.
👮 Jennifer learned by police knock on the door and still grieves losing both her brother’s presence and the mother she knew.

Q&A: Vaccine-Injury Claim, CPP Cutoff, and Untested Crystals ¶

7:46:52 · Compensation Program Failures · Shawn Buckley · Jannine Duffy · Jennifer Britain · Charles Hoffe · Dean Allison

📁 Jannine filed a vaccine-injury claim in August 2022; by July it still sat with 111 pages and no timeline.
🚌 Disability and free medical transport ended at 65; iloprost infusions helped circulation but ride support vanished.
🔬 No lab ever tested the nail crystals; a doctor who saw residue under a toenail said she had never seen it before.

Q&A: What Society Needs—Information and Advocates ¶

7:50:36 · Family And Social Impact · Shawn Buckley · Dean Allison · Jannine Duffy · Jennifer Britain

ℹ️ Jannine says missing information and a sense of being lied to left essential workers unprotected from injury risk.

🤝 Buckley thanks Jennifer for being the strong advocate many injured people never have.

Dr. Charles Hoffeee Sworn: Town Doctor in Lytton, BC ¶

7:52:32 · Inquiry Proceedings · Dean Allison · Charles Hoffe · Jennifer Britain

✝️ Family and former ER doctor Charles Hoffee swears on the Bible before the inquiry.
🏞️ He has been the only resident doctor in mostly First Nations Lytton, BC, since 1993—about 33 years.
🚗 The remote town sits roughly four hours from Vancouver and hours from Kelowna or Kamloops.

Empty ERs, Hazmat Drills, and Fraudulent Hero Parades ¶

7:54:11 · Media Censorship And Capture · Dean Allison · Charles Hoffe · Jennifer Britain

😨 Early COVID messaging and hazmat drills created fear even though Fauci-era notes compared it to a bad flu season.
🛏️ Hoffe’s ER was the quietest ever; patients with chest pain stayed home while staff waited for a tsunami that never came.
🚗 Community horn-honking hero parades left him feeling a fraud—no COVID patient needed care before the ER burned in June 2021.

Vaccines Arrive: COVID Cases, Injuries, Cleveland Clinic Pattern ¶

7:59:49 · Regulatory Approval Failures · Shawn Buckley · Dean Allison · Charles Hoffe · Jennifer Britain

📈 ER busyness began with vaccine rollout; early post-shot COVID was still counted as unvaccinated for two weeks.
🔁 Hoffe cites Cleveland Clinic ~51,000 healthcare-worker data: more doses correlated with more COVID infections.
⏳ He argues the rollout prolonged the pandemic by raising infection likelihood rather than ending it.

Neurological Injuries and Hospitals That Would Not Touch Them ¶

8:04:36 · Neurological Injuries · Charles Hoffe · Dean Allison · Jennifer Britain

⚡ Patients reported burning feet and hands, electrical limb jolts, bilateral hand weakness, dizziness, and multi-cranial neuropathies.
📞 Neurology at Royal Inland, VGH, and St. Paul’s went silent once he said vaccine injury and refused urgent assessment.
🗓️ A willing neurologist booked six urgent cases five months out; one 38-year-old with five cranial palsies was admitted eight days on sight.

Gag Orders, Open Letter to Bonnie Henry, and College Threats ¶

8:09:35 · Clinician Silencing And Gaslighting · Charles Hoffe · Dean Allison

🚫 After flagging AstraZeneca European shutdowns he was reprimanded for vaccine hesitancy and told to say nothing negative.
✉️ His open letter to PHO Bonnie Henry reported one sudden death, two anaphylaxes, and three likely permanent disabilities among first Moderna doses.
⚠️ The college warned every BC doctor that COVID or vaccine “misinformation” would trigger investigation and discipline.

Vaccine-Injury Reports Returned as “Coincidences”¶

8:16:42 · Pharmacovigilance Failures · Dean Allison · Charles Hoffe

📋 Law required reporting; top safety official Monica Naus declared his cases coincidences without examining patients.
📬 After registered-mail resubmission of laborious nine-page reports, all 14 were returned as not vaccine injuries.
🔇 Public health never requested charts or spoke to him; advice was “don’t tell them it’s a vaccine injury.”

College Charges Dropped After Failed Judicial-Notice Trap ¶

8:20:55 · Clinician Silencing And Gaslighting · Dean Allison · Charles Hoffe · Shawn Buckley

👨‍⚖️ Facing discipline, Hoffe assembled eight expert witnesses and nearly 1,000 pages of scientific evidence.
🛑 The college sought judicial notice that shots are safe and effective to bar any injury defense; the panel refused.
🎭 Charges were dropped with the stated purpose already served: deterring other doctors from “misinformation.”

Q&A: Who Is to Blame for COVID-19 Vaccine Injuries?¶

8:24:35 · Regulatory Approval Failures · Dean Allison · Shawn Buckley · Charles Hoffe

🏛️ Hoffe blames Health Canada first for approving products without evidence of safety or effectiveness.
📢 He adds complicit governments that enforced the narrative without showing clinical-trial or peer-reviewed proof.
⚖️ Medicine is supposed to be evidence-based; enforcement rested on assumption instead.

Q&A: Path Forward—Defund Pharma Capture and Protect Speech ¶

8:25:50 · Accountability And Legal Remedies · Shawn Buckley · Charles Hoffe · Dean Allison

💰 Hoffe urges ending Health Canada’s roughly 90% pharmaceutical funding so it serves Canadians, not industry.
🔓 He calls for legislation guaranteeing freedom of speech against arbitrary “misinformation” labels.
🌪️ Misinformation, he says, is whatever authorities decide and can shift with the wind.

Q&A: Was Hoffe Always an Activist or Troublemaker?¶

8:27:41 · Inquiry Proceedings · Dean Allison · Charles Hoffe

🏡 He rejects the activist label: he chose rural Lytton to serve patients, not to make a name.
📵 He never used social media or sought a public profile before speaking about injured patients.
🙏 His father once called Lytton a back eddy; Hoffe answered he only wanted to be a humble country doctor.

MP Thanks, License Scare, and Day 2 Adjournment ¶

8:29:06 · Inquiry Proceedings · Dean Allison · Charles Hoffe · Shawn Buckley · Jason Lavigne
