Dot, these cases are still going.
The other day I posted how QBE said on their post results call that they are working with government as the cases get won/lost then appealed.
One of them is going to get to the High Court at some stage.
If the insurers lose, meaning the sector is insolvent, the government will start throwing tax payer money into a scheme.
And legislating payment caps.
Zipster, thanks for your posts last night.
I’m sorry to hear how COVID is still screwing with you.
Can you tell us how you were treated when you got COVID (apologies if I missed that in your posts if you already have)?
If you prefer not to, can you let us know were you on any form of assisted breathing device during your treatment?
American Thinker:
“Tyranny is difficult to impose without heavy-handed enforcement. What we’ve seen in Canada, and what I fear we’ll see even more of in the U.S., causes one to no longer wonder where a tyrannical regime manages to find its Gestapo, its Stasi, its jackbooted thugs. They’re already in place, uniformed, armed, and well regimented.“

And even though it will be wild ride if things go wrong for a bit, the insurers will be all fine.

“Just think if we had the same platform how quickly the Covid lies would have been exposed.”
I doubt it, the station would have been warned and management would have panicked. You’d be reading about how Radio 2GB was spreading Covid lies and Covid misinformation, the station’s advertisers would have been attacked by activist groups, The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) would have been petitioned by activists and leftist politicians so as to get its radio license revoked and…..of course Scumbag Morrison, never one to shy away from attacking and undermining those on his own side, would have joined in the denunciations.
All of this happened last year to Sky News Australia….
1. Once upon a time Craig Kelly was given a voice on Sky to speak against lockdowns and to talk about alternative treatments …..no more (although amusingly, AUP advertisements do).
2. Some on Sky and particularly one of its most effective voices, Alan Jones, had the audacity on his show to question the Covid narrative and particularly preach against the lockdowns last year. He’s no longer there. Sky Management panicked and asked him to tone down the rhetoric…..so Jones left.
3. Sky’s Youtube channel was targeted (I reckon Rudd and Turdbull were behind that) and shut down back in August last year.
It would not have made any difference.
Cassie, reading your comment reminded me of The Tower of Babel painting that Dover posted on one of the earliest threads. And of course Lewis’ story That Hideous Strength which is about the all-encompassing threat of evil.
When you get past Lyndsay’s archaic language (which was perfectly normal at the time of writing) you get a picture of how high and wide and deep the takeover of the things we hold dear actually is. It doesn’t have to be a concerted conspiracy, just thousands of determined cells – a Davos crowd here, a budding tyrant there, a change of curriculum somewhere else – multiply that and you have the towering, immovable edifice.
And it’s hostile. It may have a smiling fit-for-tv face, but it will brook no challenges.
And the thinking seeps into people’s minds – people you would normally not associate with such things. I heard an acquaintance talking about the old world order being replaced, as if this was a good thing, just this week.
It really made me wonder what they saw it being replaced with. I don’t think they know themselves, but it just sounds good.

The stupid in this comment is so grotesque it is hard to know where to start. Two quick points:
Stab vests: Do these cover the throat and face? The femoral artery?
Nothing on monetary value: How about the lives and health of the nursing staff? No monetary value?
It happened much faster than anyone thought possible. All it took was a leader to tap into public sentiment (reminds me of a certain Austrian long ago).
It also means that authoritarianism has been latent in the Canadian psyche for a long time too. It’s a rare human that wants freedom for others as well as themselves when it comes down to tin tacks.
We are next. We see evidence of it every day.

Perfectly put Calli and Tinta is also correct too.
I now think that we on the right, whether we be centre-right/conservatives/right-wingers/libertarians must cease wishing for the messiah to come, be it in the guise of politicians or radio stations or television stations. Everyday I think of the following, that the day is inching ever closer where people like us must separate ourselves from mainstream society…..as in the hideous woke society that now permeates everything. Wokeness is now all encompassing, it’s strangling society and strangling human beings. I will not let it strangle me. I believe in fundamental truth and I will not compromise on that truth and if that means living apart, so be it.
I work for a large company that has, over the last five to seven years, become increasingly “woke” to the point now where last week I received an email from one of my work colleagues and in the email he writes about how he’s now proud to insert his preferred pronouns at the bottom of all of his correspondence. Now I laughed quietly to myself at this woke dribble and yes this colleague is a member of the LGBTQARSE lobby but I thought to myself, how long before this woke dribble is mandated? I am now in the situation where at work I rarely speak out loud about my opinions (and I’m no coward), I listen whilst others speak out loud but you see, they’re allowed to speak because they’re uttering the permitted progressive woke dribble. I’m not. Most at work would be shocked if I told them that I voted no to SSM and that I would do it again in a heartbeat. Most at work would be shocked if I told them that I like Donald Trump. They simply cannot fathom that others have different opinions to their own because they never hear anything different. And why don’t they hear different opinions? Because if someone is courageous enough to stick their head above to parapet to utter a different opinion, that person will then be shouted down, smeared and silenced for “hate speech” and so on….so what’s the point? People need jobs, I need my job so I’ve made the decision that when I am at work I will not speak outside certain parameters. I know for a fact that I’m not the only one at my company who thinks like me and I watch how others also remain quiet.
Separation has been done before, Jews, until emancipation, lived separately, Catholics in England lived separately…history is littered with numerous examples where people and communities have separated themselves from the mainstream.
We can’t rely on saviours but there’s one thing I’m sure of which is that this hideous woke empire will come crushing down. The rise of Islam will see to that.

“I think he has very strong leadership. He has great values.
“He’s certainly doing his bit to stamp out terrorism and I guess you’ve got to pay the man for that.””
Now just imagine if Pauline Hanson had said that back in 2014…..you don’t think the MSM would be running stories about her about face on Wussia and Vlad today?

Could the recent photos the Darwin visit with Mr Albanese looking like a wizened old lesbian in the felt hat have prompted this latest iteration of be-glittering the Labor hack?
Usually in weighty matters one defers to the creatives. Actors for example.
But occasionally matters are so dire we must seek insights from the creatives’ creatives – the people behind the actors. Writers!
So we are blessed with this insight from Stephen King:
Mr Putin has made a serious miscalculation.
He forgot he is no longer dealing with Trump.
I expect at some point, after Putin has got what he wants, some small fig leaf that was offered to Biden to try to hide his humiliation behind, or some scenario that Putin had not even imagined will naturally not come to pass and the foetid media pool will insist he did not because Biden had stared him down, will be hailed as a victory and all the creatives – actors, writers, and j’ismists – will pat each other on the back for their insight. So much more keen than those rubes on the right.

BREAKING: In a Shocking Reversal, Trudeau Revokes His Use of the Emergencies Act – (VIDEO)
I’m not to sure of Turdeau’s actions are supported by the majority of Canadians. I certainly hope not.
If Trudeau can invoke and employ the emergency powers whenever he chooses it is the same as him having the powers all the time and then uses them when he chooses. This is really only a cosmetic surrender.

There’s a huge push in Australia to get the population tested for HIV, and very soon all countries will do likewise.
The central issue is that the vaccines damage the immune systems of people who have taken them, and the Globalist’s plan to use HIV as their ‘cover story’ to avoid the vaccines being blamed for this situation.
Don’t worry. Moderna is working on an AIDS vaccine.
Pfft. Everyone knows that the light is controlled by a little man that lives in the fridge!

Where is this “huge push” happening because I live in Australia and I am not seeing it.
No TV adverts, no newspaper adverts or op-eds, nothing on radio, no billboards.

Unless it is someone in the US publishing one tiny advert from the other side of the world and calling it a “huge push” hoping their readers can’t or won’t check?

Of course she is. Didn’t we see something months ago to the effect that Congressional Reps were popping it like lollies?
Trudousche lifted the ’emergencies act’ due to massive rep issues it has caused their banks.
At this point, you’d have to be a fucking idiot to have any money in a Canadian bank. Looking into the future, everyone doing any business in Canada will have account freezing and possible confiscation in the back of their minds. Fiat currency is all about confidence. Fascist leftards need to realise that – actions have consequences.
Lambie’s outbreak of opinion might be connected to her self-appointed special brief as protector of the armed forces.
After years of scolding soldiers for infractions but, just when those same soldiers were being deployed to where there was a little more danger than infractions, she was suddenly injured and could not go.
What a preposterous and ungainly monster. In my mind I can only imagine that if they assigned one of those Auslan sign interpreters to her the only one that could really translate her properly would have arms like tattooed hams, a stained singlet, a mulled, a scowling rat-like face, and a bourbon belly.

Thanks for the links to those studies. This chunk virus was, intentionally or otherwise, a bio-weapon.

Yes.
It is not a “yuuuge push for everyone to get tested”.
There has been concern that AIDS has fallen off the radar with high risk groups (gays, drug users) and there was a targeted campaign aimed at those groups which has been going for at least five years.
The link looks like a poster to be put up in a doctor’s surgery.
But if there was a “yuuuge push for everyone in Australia to get tested for HIV” we’d be seeing it on our telly every night, right?

Still want to get rid of compulsory bike helmets?
Here is a successful strategy from the US.
In Seattle, home to one of the largest populations of bike commuters in the country, officials have overturned a decades-old regulation requiring cyclists to wear helmets because of what they called discriminatory enforcement of the rule against homeless people and people of color.
The King County Board of Health voted to repeal the requirement on Thursday,
Seattle is the largest city in the country to enforce a bike helmet requirement. The city of Tacoma, Wash., repealed its requirement in 2020, citing similar equity concerns, as did Dallas in 2014 for those 18 and older, as a means of encouraging more bike-sharing.
A separate analysis from Central Seattle Greenways, a safe streets advocacy group, found that Black cyclists were almost four times as likely to receive a citation for violating the helmet requirement as white cyclists. Native American cyclists were just over twice as likely to receive one as white cyclists.
Neither study looked at whether homeless people or people of color wore helmets less frequently than other groups, but the Central Seattle Greenways study did look at racial demographics of cyclists and found that people of color were less likely to ride bikes than white people.
Meantime, Alberta is taking Trudeau to court.
I suppose there’s one positive to come out of the Ukrainian crisis:
Kamala Harris found a border she’d like to protect.
My wife was pleased to get a letter from our health insurer telling us they’re not putting up premiums for six months because they’re such good corporate citizens.
I pointed out to that they have been taking money and not paying much out because the doctors haven’t been doing much doctoring and the surgeries are not happening. Add in all the other elective health care and it’s money for jam. They should give us back some premium.
that same rag did tongue-bathing spreads on Julia Gillard
A double or even triple dose of PHRASING!
I know nothing of the Canadian Courts, but it is tempting to believe that taking Trudeau before the courts would be as effective as taking Andrews before the Victorian Oblast Proples Tribunal.
At this point I’d say Truturd is dead man walking. His WEF overlords fucked up big time.
The Canadian Senate is appointed, not elected and the only limit on the time they can serve is a compulsory retirement age of 75. Given Fidel’s boy has been in power since 2015 I’d say he now has a Senate majority through replacing retiring Conservative senators with Liberals.

BOOM, Trudeau Reversal Motive Surfaces – Canadian Banking Association Was Approved by World Economic Forum to Lead the Digital ID Creation
February 23, 2022 | Sundance | Leave a comment
Sunlight is the best disinfectant. A promotional video from the Canadian Bankers Association (CBA) helps to neatly connect all the dots about why the Canadian government made such a quick reversal in their bank asset seizures in the last 24 hours {Go Deep}. And yes, as we suspected, it was almost certainly contact from the World Economic Forum to Canadian Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland that triggered the change in position.
When Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland announced they would use the Emergency Act declaration to target the financial support systems, banks and accounts of the people who were protesting against COVID mandates, they not only undermined the integrity of the Canadian banking system – but they also inadvertently stuck a wrench into the plans of the World Economic Forum and the collaborative use of the Canadian Bankers Association to create a digital id.
Against the backdrop of the Canadian government action, WATCH THIS VIDEO:

What went unsaid but was almost certainly on her mind was “no baggage” (ie no existing kidlets).
So, basically she is after a six-foot George Clooney, with extra added brains and personality, aged about 40 but who hasn’t been around the track before.

A Major Backfire – Is the Canadian Financial and Banking System in Serious Trouble as a Result of Their Attack on Private Bank Accounts?
February 23, 2022 | Sundance | 573 Comments
Has there been a massive exodus of capital out of the Canadian financial system?
A few obscure but interesting data-points seem to indicate Justin Trudeau’s unprecedented use of the federal government and intelligence apparatus to target the bank accounts of Canadian citizens has just created a serious problem for their financial institutions.
If I was a betting person, I would bet half my stake that something very serious is happening in the background of the Canadian financial system, and it appears the leaders inside government, as well as leaders in the international financial community, are reacting and trying to keep things quiet. Stick with me on this and stay elevated…
BACKGROUND – When Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced he was invoking the Emergency War Measures Act to seize bank accounts and block access to the financial system for people who were arbitrarily deemed as terrorists to the interest of the Canadian government, i.e. the Freedom Protest group writ large, many people immediately thought about the consequences of a government taking such action.
Indeed, the first response to many who witnessed the gleeful declarations of the Canadian government as they expressed their intent to utilize their emergency power, was that this was seriously going to undermine faith and confidence in the Canadian financial systems. The RCMP is the Canadian equivalent of the FBI.
If the government can work with the RCMP to target people based on an arbitrary political decree, and then control your bank account while simultaneously giving financial institutions liability protection for their participation, the confidence in the banking system is immediately undermined.
What might seem like a great tool for political punishment has long term consequences, especially if people start withdrawing their money and/or shifting the placement of their investments to more secure locations away from the reach of the Canadian government. Considering the rules of fractional banking and deposits, it doesn’t take many withdrawals before the banks have serious issues.

Thank heavens my eldest grandson ignored my advice to enter the AFP force.

Didn’t KRudd chuck a tanty because he was not pushed by the Australian government for a top UN job?
Something like SG?
Terribly bad decision by the Australian government – KRudd would have razed the UN to the ground in pursuit of his ego.
Trudeau made his point and cemented his position as dictator.
The Parliament and the courts may as well go home until he needs them to rubber stamp another atrocity.

no longer wonder where a tyrannical regime manages to find its Gestapo, its Stasi, its jackbooted thugs.
Currently reading, THE SS Alibi of a Nation, by Gerald Reitlinger and in it he states that the GESTAPO up until 1938 had fewer than 80, active, officers & thru-out the 1939-45 period never exceeded 2 000 .. it’s entire network was based on fear & “informants” who numbered in the tens of thousands …….
I think Trumble realised that.

URGENT: A German insurance database of 11 million people reportedly shows a huge increase in severe side effects after Covid jabs
Alex Berenson 5 hr ago
Welt, a major German newspaper, just ran an interview with Andreas Schofbeck, a board member for a Bavarian insurer called BKK Provita.
By itself, BKK Provita has 120,000 members. But it is a much larger consortium of so-called BKK insurers that are affiliated with German companies and collectively have 10.9 million members.
Here’s how Schofbeck described the claims in the BKK database, according to one of the reporters who interviewed him:
The “PEI numbers” are the official German data; the Paul Ehrlich Institute is the German agency that regulates vaccines and medicines.

I thought to myself that is exactly why Trudy has done the apparent backflip with pike. The punters have been digesting the actions of his sturmfuerher deputy PM and have worked out if she can freeze personal accounts of thousands of small donors without recourse, then she can freeze my account with no recourse too, if I somehow get on her bad side. Result: poll numbers making like a shot goose.
What I don’t know is whether the lifting of the “emergency” will cause lifting of the account freezes, since lefties like Trudy and She Who Must Be Obeyed are notorious for refusing to back down on such things. Think 1/6 detainees.
I was also wondering to myself in the middle of the night, as you do, whether the day after Albo gets in he will declare an “emergency” too, then go after class-enemies like Trudy. All those recalcitrant unvaxxed (like me) and climate sceptics (also like me). A few weeks ago I would never have thought that possible. Now…

Sold as welfare, but notice the small print:
It will also be used to enrol to vote, register drones and declare bankruptcy
It will also be tied into your state Service Now App and used to authenticate you with your vaccine “passport” when challenged, authenticate you during “isolation” and lockdown compliance too.
Amongst a million other uses. Such as a being the central ID provider that online private online services will use to authenticate you. They’ll maintained private shared blacklists so if you get banned off Facebook you’ll be banned off everything and your bank will have a good hard look at whether it wants to continue providing you with a service and Equifax will reduce your credit score if you’re on the list.
Or if you were at the robust protests in Victoria in September the Victorian government will tell social media and payment providers to ban your account and being a single sign on for everything you’re done.

It is interesting to see that your particular flavour of catastropharian Nuffiness responds so favourably and uncritically to good old-fashioned Soviet-style propaganda. Ironic, since the total subversion and overthrow of the Western and capitalist system, to replace it with Marx’s ideal of a New System populated by a New Man (I.E. That thing about the WEF and the Clintons and the Tunnel People you’re constantly screaming at us about), is a Soviet Comintern theological crusade over a century in the making…

Facial recognition will save me! said no one ever.
The biggest problem with social and financial credit systems is identifying people across all of the services that a person uses in their lives in order to build an authentic picture of them.
A single sign on digital id removes that “problem”. You’re one person, everywhere, forever. And everyone who offers a “service” can instantly check who you are and then check their preferred “lists” that they subscribe to (financial credit, social credit, extremist, social media trolls list) to see what other people are gossiping about you (dobbing you in for). Then there’s the mandatory government lists., “extremists”, etc that they have to enforce.
It’s essentially a return to the tiny tribal village where if you found yourself on the outer of the mob, you are literally fucked for the rest of your miserable life.
If your face can crack mirrors without making physical contact with the glass, you are (allegedly) not safe to access Government services…

The government stuff is essentially just a proof of concept, of what the new system is capable of, and getting the public used to it.
Ultimately – the ultimate dream moment, is when the first waiter authenticates the first person in real time, as the person nervously holds their phone in line at the restaurant with their compliance passport tick showing on screen and the waiter eyeing them up suspiciously that it’s a fake.
Extrapolate that across all of society.
That’s the dream state for this stuff.
The immediate desire and push is that to signup to any online app that matters – particularly banking, commerce or social media, such as to open an online bank account you’ll use your digital id via single sign on and facial recognition will be one of the authentication methods. Eventually it’s going to do fingerprint authentication too which has already been built into android and iPhone for years but the government don’t want to scare people too much by asking you to give them your fingerprints yet.
Whenever you hear “digital transformation” this is what they’re talking about: making your entire life and interactions with the economy and public space flow through a handful of monitored and regulated channels and locking you into one single provable identity. That they can then assign additional data too, like whether you’re a good boy or girl or not – many of these will be private, identical to private financial credit lists which will maintain social credit scores for a hundred different purposes, then there will be the government ones.
As has been said many, many times about the vaccine passports by lunatic Nazi’s “what’s the difference between a vaccine passport and a drivers licence?”, the thinking is already there. And that is what they say about all this too.
The success of the last two years was making people accept, as most happily did – that going out in public, going into businesses and interacting with other people is a privilege granted to you that can be regulated by a licencing system.
And not a god given right.

https://www.theguardian.com/media/2022/feb/24/rosie-batty-plans-to-avoid-divisive-conversations-when-hosting-abcs-one-plus-one
Seven years later, Batty is joining the ranks of the media, asking other accidental heroes to open up on a new series of the ABC’s interview show One Plus One.
….
Her most bruising media experience came early on when she found herself listening through an earpiece to comments made on TV by News Corp Australia columnist Joe Hildebrand, who said there was no excuse for not reporting child abuse.
Waiting in the wings to talk about her fundraising efforts, Batty was asked by Studio 10 producers to respond to Hildebrand live on air.
Advertisement
“I just heard victim-blaming statements and I was so, so angry,” Batty says now. She came on via a live cross and said: “This is beyond my comprehension that again the woman who’s the victim is punished.” She told Hildebrand he was “so misguided”.
“I came off air thinking, oh my God, what did I do? I’m really embarrassed that I’d been so angry.”
Hildebrand later apologised for upsetting Batty but did not resile from insisting women should report their partners for child abuse.
…
So when Karl Stefanovic’s ill-fated panel show The Verdict came calling years later Batty just laughed. They wanted her to be on a panel with Mark Latham who had criticised her publicly.
“Karl invited me on and I thought – don’t be so pathetic. I just couldn’t be bothered. I think I learned a long time ago to let other people have those divisive conversations. I learned how to pick my times to speak.”
…

An ex Australian of the year, and now ABCcess tick thinks this is an awful thing to say..
who said there was no excuse for not reporting child abuse.
Thats 99% of peoples default position.
But the ABCcess and Government give a platform to a 1% opinionista.
Spot on, and assuming she meant since the end of WWII lets not forget Hungary in 1956 or Czechoslovakia 1968-1989, which coincidentally the west, much less the UN, did nothing about.
Hmm, come to think of it, has anyone heard a word from the UN regarding their actions in Ukraine? Oh that’s right, the Russians chair the Security Council right now and refuse to allow it discussed.
Trivia tidbit: Czechoslovakia saw the birth of the Soviet/Russian tactic of claiming “but they asked us to invade them, we were invited”. 750,000 Warsaw Pact troops and tanks promptly showed up to help direct traffic, build orphanages (which came in handy), and other such helpful order-restoring things.
Yep, the same Cathedral who cry for pre-emptive dissolution of the confidentiality of the confessional.
Children need multiple cues to process receptive and expressive language. These include visual, voice, body language and – hugely important – facial expression. Without any one of these the child is handicapped and, in best practice, is provided aids specific to the disability ie, a hearing impaired child is given hearing aids and taught signing and lip reading, but always in conjunction with those other cues, especially facial expresion, to help determine context.
Every government CHO would know this. And yet they mandated masks for children! Imagine how an autistic, deaf or intellectually impaired child copes with the loss of this vital learning cue. It’s absolutely wicked!
If I were writing a novel about a dystopian society, I would start by isolating people both physically and psychologically, so that they needed a ‘benign’ authority figure to guide every aspect of their lives. Everyone would look much the same. Children would not develop the ability to interpret or express emotions… because everyone wears masks.

Most people don’t realise that China’s “social credit score” is actually many private credit providers.

Doesn’t quite work like that. All businesses in China are either directly linked to the Party, or express fealty to it through seeking the sponsorship or patronage of one or more local Party officials.
No matter how hard the Nuffers Nuff onto the walls of the internet (beware the splatters, they are a slip hazard!), Australia is not and cannot build the digital panopticon you fear- Australia’s government does not have total control of all aspects of the commercial system in this country. Businesses large and small are still beholden to their shareholders and customers far more than their local MP.
No matter how pervasive and stifling bureaucracies like ASIC and the ATO may be, they are not the Party. They may be full of Communist-curious folks who think digital IDs are just the sweetest way to avoid work and streamline their administrative processes so they have more time for ‘meetings’ and morning teas, but they are not in charge. And their own ineptitude and pecadilloes would render any system they come up with unworkable long before any counter-Revolution is declared.

Also apparently you completely slept through the last two years of government wielding total control over businesses and businesses bending over backwards to do anything they were told no matter how revolting.
