A reporter at CBC Manitoba started to get so many phone calls from vaccine-injured people that she did a story about it. She did her job. She's a 35-year veteran named Marian Kloak, and she knows how to do her job. She phoned around to university experts across Canada, and she learned that there were actually safety signals by this time of myocarditis and pericarditis. They— these, these university experts who were in the field said that, uh, this was happening. It was posted on the Health Canada website. It was being witnessed internationally. And she put a story together, and CBC Manitoba censored the story. They said, you can't say that, it will promote vaccine hesitancy. And she replied, that's not my job to promote hesitancy or to cheerlead the vaccine. My job is to tell the truth of what's happening in this country. They sent the story down to CBC Toronto for vetting. This has never happened to her before in her 35-year career as a broadcaster at CBC, and it took 5 weeks for them to come back with an answer.

She was pointing out at the time that this was an urgent story, but they said, you can put those people on who claim that they're injured by the vaccine, but you can't put those two learned scientists on who say that these are red flags. And we have pericarditis and myocarditis, and we have other death red flags, and they're posting it on the Health Canada website. Not allowed to put them on. You have to put approved scientists on. She had never heard this before. So Marianne Kloak You can't see the picture here, but she said, "I quit. I'm triggering my retirement. I'm leaving the CBC." She later testified at the National Citizens' Inquiry here in Ottawa. "I witnessed in a very short time the collapse of journalism, news gathering, and investigative reporting at the CBC. The way I saw it, we were in fact pushing propaganda." Those are her words.
