This article was written by the brilliant forensic investigator, Andy Lee, who is on the X platform. This greatly complicates what we’ve been told about COVID, bringing into clear focus the complex web of deceit that surrounded the public messaging about the so-called vaccine. And it implicates Canada in a startling and disturbing way.

Chrétien Family Linked to Chinese Scientist Involved In Winnipeg Laboratory Breach

~ Michel Chrétien, the brother of former Prime Minister Jean Chrétien, carried out research studies on deadly viruses with a Chinese-Canadian scientist removed by the RCMP.

By Andy Lee 

She was a brilliant scientist, credited as one of the researchers who helped cure Ebola. Then came the news of her sudden removal, followed by reports of virus shipments to China. No one knows where she is now, but we do know where she has been. One thing is for certain – the story of Dr. Xiangguo Qiu is a mysterious one.

The problems appeared to start in 2019.

It was that summer the news broke that Dr. Xiangguo Qiu, along with her husband Keding Cheng and a number of unidentified Chinese students, had been escorted out of the National Microbiology Laboratory (NML) in Winnipeg, Canada by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). The sudden removal of Qiu on July 5, a prominent virologist who was at one time the head of the Vaccine Development and Antiviral Therapies department in the Special Pathogen Program of the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC), sent shockwaves through the international community. The NML, a biosafety level-4 laboratory (BSL-4), is Canada’s only laboratory equipped to contain and deal with the world’s most deadly pathogens. One of only about 50 worldwide, it is operated by the Government of Canada through PHAC. The removal of Qiu and her colleagues was described as a “policy breach,” and assurances were given to the public that there was no safety risk. Those assurances however felt meek, particularly after Covid-19 hit in December of 2019. Qiu’s work, though centred mostly around the Ebola virus, also crossed into coronavirus research. Her husband had published research on Covid-19’s predecessor which hit Canada in 2003: Severe Acute Respiratory Virus (SARS). It had further been discovered in August of 2019 that Qiu had been collaborating with the Wuhan Institute of Virology, the BSL-4 lab theorized to have been the source of a lab leak resulting in the Covid-19 pandemic. Much speculation followed. Charges were never laid in the matter however, and after having her security clearance revoked and being placed on administrative leave for almost two years, she was finally officially fired in January 2021.

The reasoning behind her firing remains murky. Access to information requests obtained by CBC showed that she had been shipping live viruses, including Ebola and Henipah, to Beijing, in March of 2019, preceding her removal from NML. Any shipments would have required the approval of PHAC however, who insisted that all relevant protocols were followed. It was never confirmed if the shipment was a part of the RCMP investigation.

While we may never know the exact reason why Qiu was escorted out that day – theories ranged from espionage concerns, to intellectual property infringement, to technical policy missteps – we do know one thing now. She united with Michel Chrétien, the brother of former Prime Minister of Jean Chrétien, to expand their joint research interests. And that research was later used in work done on novel Covid-19 therapies by Michel Chrétien in further collaboration with China down the road.

Qiu’s breakthrough came in 2013. After years of experimental research with monoclonal antibodies, a combination of three which she dubbed “ZMab” showed immense promise in protecting against oft-lethal Ebola infections. Her research paper on the subject stated “We previously demonstrated that the administration of ZMAb within 24 hours after exposure [to Ebola virus] completely protected all treated NHPs (non-human primates)” – an incredible claim against a pathogen with a mortality rate approaching ninety per cent. That Chrétien would want to work with her is hardly surprising. Her study was nothing short of a miracle.

The title of the paper detailing their joint research efforts is “Dr. Chrétien’s Love Affair With China,” and it is fascinating.

Chrétien, a researcher at the Clinical Research Institute of Montreal (IRCM), made headlines in early 2020 after it was postulated whether there may be a “made-in-Canada” solution to the coronavirus outbreak. Michel’s prior work using quercetin – a popular supplement – drew broad attention, particularly from China. His former studies had involved studying quercetin’s effectiveness in treating Ebola, which were done in conjunction with NML during the 2014 Ebola outbreak. What was not known at the time is that Qiu – the virologist later removed by the RCMP – was the scientist at NML running the experiments for him. The article details how Chrétien contacted Qiu in 2014 to run tests for him using quercetin on Ebola at the NML. After finding success in those trials, they later conducted similar investigations on Zika virus, claiming that the results were “beyond their expectations.”

There were beliefs that quercetin may also work on Covid-19, and the clinical trials commenced in China before Covid-19 was even declared a pandemic. Chrétien, an accomplished scientist who has won many awards in his field, had studied at Berkeley, and trained with Dr. Choh Hao Li. He maintained high-level connections to Chinese researchers afterward, having been granted an honorary professorship at the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences in the 1980s. He is also credited for bringing Chinese students to the IRCM to train at the prestigious institution. He later used those connections to contact researchers in Wuhan in February of 2020, asking if he could help by sending samples for clinical trials to test quercetin’s efficacy in treating Covid-19. A million dollars was donated by the Lazaridis Family Foundation to commence the study in February 2020. The WHO declared Covid-19 a global pandemic shortly after, on March 11, 2020.

The study was quietly scrapped and cancelled in late 2020, citing a lack of clinical subjects to test the remedy on. The claim was that the virus had been “quickly brought under control,” in China, rendering the study irrelevant as “the number of patients needed to set up clinical trials was no longer available there [in China].” Of course, today, after witnessing years of brutal-but-futile lockdowns in China put into place in a misguided government effort to mitigate the spread of the virus, we know that wasn’t true at all.

We will never know definitively what transpired at the Winnipeg NML. The Liberal government has made sure of that, taking the extraordinary step to kill any investigation by suing the House Speaker to block the release of records regarding the firing of Qiu and her husband.”It appears that what you might well call Chinese agents infiltrated one of the highest prized national security elements when it comes to biosecurity and biodefence,” said Christian Leuprecht, a security expert and professor at the Royal Military College.

We know that Qiu, originally from and trained in China, sent live viral samples to Beijing, and that she was a key asset in building relationships with the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Her trips to China were well-known and documented, and hardly clandestine in nature. She took five trips to the Wuhan Institute of Virology through 2017-2018 alone, following its approval as a BSL-4 facility in 2017. PHAC and the Government of Canada were certainly aware of her activities and were encouraging not just her, but others to forge closer ties to Chinese researchers. Was she releasing information to scientists working for the Chinese government during those trips? Almost certainly. They were research partners. Was she doing it without the full knowledge and grace of PHAC, and running afoul of protocols or treading into espionage territory? Difficult to say. Only she, and maybe a handful of others, know.

One thing that we can say for certain is that her investigations in her field were invaluable, likely changing millions of lives, and that it appears that the groundwork she helped to lay not just in Ebola, but in quercetin research, conjointly with Michel Chrétien, had immeasurable potential that was unfortunately never realized. We will never get answers on why his study in China, later confirmed to show promise in treating Covid-19, was cancelled, just as we will never be told why CanSino abandoned early trials on vaccine research with Canadian scientists.

The other lesson to be learned is that we have to be more cautious with how we approach research and development projects with the Chinese government. Stricter protocols and guidelines are necessary to define intellectual property boundaries. Qiu’s name appeared on numerous research papers done in conjunction with the Academy of Military Science in China, as well as on several patents submitted to the China National Intellectual Property Administration. Is this where the trouble started? Projects and partnerships need to be carefully monitored by PHAC going forward to defend national security interests, and even while PHAC was acutely aware of Qiu’s work with with Chinese researchers, she still somehow ended up barred from one of our top laboratory facilities. Did she get caught up in an intellectual property battle by transferring research to the Chinese government? And Chrétien’s cancelled quercetin trials – which barely even made the news – should certainly serve as an advisory notice for Canadian workers who carry out research with China, only to have those projects inexplicably shelved for dubious reasons.

As for the the sad story of Qiu, an incredible Chinese-Canadian virologist who helped to cure Ebola, it appears that the answers to those questions will remain tightly locked in the vault of Covid-era secrets, along with many others. It should be the strongest precautionary tale to Canada of them all however; whatever else she may have been, she was a genius in her field, and it is hard to argue that what happened to her should be described as anything other than a tragic loss for all.

* BLOOD PLASMA INFECTED WITH AIDS VIRUS SOLD TO BIG PHARMA

Posted on by

AS REPORTED BY SEASONED JOURNALIST, PATRICK BROWN, IN HIS BOOK, BUTTERFLY MIND ~ REVOLUTION, RECOVERY, AND ONE REPORTER’S ROAD TO UNDERSTANDING CHINA

Over many months and many social media platforms I’ve heard people claim that some vaccines contain the AIDS virus. Since I had no way to verify their assertions I put that information in the “possibly true, possibly fear-mongering” file. Then I read Brown’s book.

DIRECT QUOTE:

“Dr. Gao Yaojie came to my office one afternoon in 2004 to talk about HIV-AIDS. A small-town gynecologist, [she] sounded the alarm in 1996 when many of her patients began to show symptoms that she was shocked to recognize as HIV infection. Her patients were poor villagers with no exposure to intravenous drugs, prostitution, or other common routes of HIV transmission. She realized that they had been infected while selling their own blood. When she reported the outbreak to the provincial health department, instead of shutting down the blood-collection industry that was spreading the disease, officials tried to shut up Dr. Gao.

“There is no HIV-AIDS in Henan Province,” the head of the Henan public health department, Liu Quanxi, told local journalists who asked about an outbreak of “a strange illness”. As head of the department, Liu Quanxi had organized the spread of for-profit blood-collection stations in Henan, and many of them were owned and run by members of his family. He also set up a private company, Wanda, to deal in blood products. The health department encouraged farmers to sell their blood, and boasted that the sale of blood plasma was providing revenue for the department.

“The blood-collecting stations were filthy, and the way they were run guaranteed that enormous numbers of people would be infected. The end product was blood plasma that was sold to large pharmaceutical companies. Eight hundred cubic centimeters of blood was drawn from each donor and mixed with other donors’ blood [!!!!!!] in a large centrifuge. The machine separated the blood plasma from the red and white blood cells, which then were re-injected into the donors, so that they could give blood more frequently.

“It is, perhaps, understandable that poor peasants in a remote inland province of China were unaware in the 1990s of the dangers of being injected with other people’s blood. It is inconceivable, however, that the head of the Department of Health and other officials did not know how HIV-AIDS was transmitted, and how dangerous the re-injection of commingled blood cells was. Indeed, their whole business model was based on the notion that seventy million peasants, isolated from the normal channels of infection, represented an enormously valuable reservoir of safe blood.”

“”In China the very biggest problem is telling lies,” said Dr. Gao. Low-level officials lie to high-level officials to protect themselves, and high-level officials lie to their superiors. It’s a frightening problem. The liars are promoted.” Dr. Gao has won national and international awards for her work, but in Henan she is treated like a criminal, and members of her family are harassed and persecuted.”

* The Four Forces and Mark Carney

Reply

Four troubling forces are bearing down on us. Each force conflicts with the others and this period of destabilization will intensify and bring a heap of suffering and chaos. Read on, fasten your seat belt, keep your mind open and learn — forewarned is forearmed, as they say.

FIRST FORCE

The first force are the top tiers of Central Bankers and Big Bankers; Mark Carney belongs to both groups. They want a unified global currency to take over.

Their goal is to realize the One World Bank and central bank digital currency (CBDC).

They are in various stages of attempting this — but we can stop it!

CBDC means the end of human freedom. They tell us their motivations are for the betterment of humanity, that tired old saw. They haven’t been able to fix anything thus far, and the world is a stinking mess and getting worse by the week, but suddenly this new thing will bring in progress?

Carney is part of the effort (assisted by the Trudeau Liberals) to get the entire world under China’s model of strict authoritarian controls.

Every single aspect of life would be under the thumb of centralized control. Our first clue are Carney’s words “rigid controls” and “personal freedoms” used in the same sentence — classic communist double-speak.

The common name for centralized control is Social Credit Scoring which is basically tyranny. Your every move is tracked and your score changes daily. If your score falls below an arbitrary number, you are shut out. See Songpinganq on X for in-depth understanding of what real life is like in communist China.

Carney’s “severely constrained choice” means exactly that.

The only way they can achieve this is if we agree to it. They want to cancel the use of cash for any and all transactions. No more of the casual things we enjoy and take for granted, like garage sales, tooth fairy money under the pillow, tipping a favourite server, etc. So use cash and don’t give up your right to use it!

Globalists believe they will get control because so many people are already using cell phones. Just because we use cell phones doesn’t mean we give away our rights to privacy or a life that’s free of big brother watching over our shoulder 24/7/365.

CBDC is not possible if we refuse to accept a personal digital ID.

A digital ID basically means that every single thing about you is kept in one central place in cyberspace, or so they say. Health records, insurance policies, driving record, performance reviews from work, relationships you’ve had, groups you belong to, the amount spent on alcohol, where you travelled and for how long, what you buy and where, to what or whom you give money, every time you text, every word you say out loud. What video games you play. Private things that will shock you. It’s the China model, which is harsh.

If you dislike the new feudal overlords, it’s very easy to lock you out of society, very easy to find you, very easy to put you in quarantine.

SECOND FORCE

Here’s the pyramid again to refresh your memory. The second force relates to a bloated class of billionaires within the Corporate Elite tier of the pyramid. Carney is also enmeshed with this group.

The Corporate Elite tier has been gradually gaining more concentrated wealth and power. 99% of it actually.

At least 500 new billionaires were made during Covid so the Corporate Elite tier has become bloated and top heavy. They’re younger, very power-hungry, and collectively delirious about technology. Many fancy themselves as dominant in all things cyber, biotech and the race for Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Some of these new billionaires are so ambitious they want to get to the very top of the pyramid — their version of upward social mobility. They’re gaming for the thrones currently held by the likes of the Bilderberg group. What social upheaval will happen when all these power plays start rolling out?

Most of us know little-to-nothing about this rarefied little club but they do exist. They don’t appear on the pyramid and they aren’t talked about in the corporate media, but they pull many of the strings which make history. Old, old, old invisible money.

All these tiers are Mark Carney’s peer network, the people with whom–and for whom– he’s been working his entire career. The image he presents to Canadians is only so that we give him the power he needs to carry out Agenda 21. If given the chance he will intensify the Trudeau legacy of ruining our lives and hurting the country.

THIRD FORCE

Trump’s tariff war is the third force. Trump and his advisors realize that many in the top tiers are gunning to see the end of the U.S. dollar as the world’s dominant currency. Re-aligning the balance of trade is pushing back against that trend.

They’ve been trying to weaken America as well as the U.S. dollar. Mark Carney is among those calling for the end of the U.S. dollar, which would also mean the end of the Canadian dollar.

FOURTH FORCE

The fourth force pertains to BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) which is actually comprised of many nations represented in red on this map.

In a recent speech by Vladimir Putin, BRICS share of global population is 45% and global GDP is 36% and growing. Putin predicts that in the near future, growth won’t be centered in Europe or North America; Western nations are gradually losing their dominant position in the global economy.

Putin believes, foolishly, given Xi Jinping’s goal of global domination, that a BRICS alliance means its nations will all function equally and free from interference by any one dominant nation.

The accepted and preferred currency used by BRICS is China’s yuan. Are you starting to connect the dots?

China’s election interference –> Trudeau –>

China’s election interference –> Carney.

Carney cares not for Canada. He is playing his part in an attempted globalist coup. It would be a tragic mistake to see him as wanting to guide us safely through this minefield. Name one historic upheaval which didn’t bring tremendous violence and tragedy for the people.

In their quest for dominance, men like Carney don’t care if they risk everything we’ve built, our way of life, our humanity, everything that is good and worth saving. And there are intrinsic, gargantuan conflicts within Carney’s own political belief system — to whom is he actually loyal??

What we need is to conserve our way of life, to protect it and elect a government that wants to keep Canada solid and on course. We need a prime minister who will build on our existing strengths so that we can safely weather what’s coming. We must not be sacrificed to the ludicrous ambitions of ultra-wealthy power-hungry men who want to be the new kings of Corporate Feudalism.

* Buying an Election Costs $150 Million ~ China Wants Carney

“The choice right now is globalism or nation.” ~ Dan Knight on Substack

Mark Carney just bought CBC preferential election coverage for $150 million—and it comes as no surprise to hear the CBC aligning with China’s reaction to Trump’s tariffs. The Liberal Government has allowed Canada to go so far down the communist hole that without a doubt this election is about China openly directing Carney’s campaign and Canada allowing itself to accept the cowardly position of vassal state.

I’m a recovering CBC addict who listened to Radio One and watched CBC news for decades until it became crystal clear during COVID how compromised the so-called “nation’s broadcaster” had become—

–and how numb and dumb I had become for listening to it.

By 2021, I migrated over to Twitter (now X) and quickly realized that high quality citizen journalism was flourishing. Some phenomenal citizen journalists are working online, posting their research with panache and honesty. They dig, then provide receipts and links; they include the history and context of the topic so you understand the big picture. Often their work shocked me into questioning what I know. I started to become curious again.

Citizen journos like Andy Lee and Holly Doan have bigger audience share than the CBC –because they fill in missing information, expose lies and corruption—every single day. And they expose the old media for lying by omission.

So I cancelled cable and quit watching TV and felt such a weight lift off my shoulders it was like I’d finally left an abusive partner. I had believed the CBC’s shoddy reporting for years and it made me bewildered how I’d allowed it for so long.  

The call to defund the CBC pertains to increasing expectations of high standards from the media we trust—we’re living in the Age of Information and it’s time to up our game. We have to be smart, informed, mentally-well and media literate. Did you know that the Danes teach media literacy to grade school students? Why aren’t we doing that here?

People who get all their information and lousy reporting from old media sources, like I used to do, are shockingly brainwashed and unable to ask questions or think critically. Without doing even one minute of my own research, I used to believe that Tucker Carlson was a right wing extremist, that Fox News was evil, that Stephen Harper was a monster, that Jordan Peterson is a woman hater. The list goes on.

Since most people are now seeking information from independent sources, old media — TV, magazines and newspapers — are hanging on for dear life. They peddle propaganda, Liberal bias, and ideological brainwashing in order to keep advertising dollars and lavish government subsidies coming in. When I tune in to the CBC now, their tired little coven of forever-pundits remind me of the Addams Family.

In stark contrast, during COVID, citizen journalists gathered the scientific data that revealed that the mRNA “vaccine” is a failed product that didn’t prevent anything but did cause disease, injury and sudden deaths, even in the young and healthy.

They exposed deep rot and corruption within science and vaccinology. And they exposed the ways that Canadian healthcare — both federal and provincial — is rapidly moving against human rights. The CBC has been silent about everything.

Frustration over the total blackout of crucial information is why indie journalism is essential and why some people take their protest right to the source — which the CBC also doesn’t report, of course.

The Brits were doing the same at the BBC. They protested in the streets. They dug up facts about outrageous corruption and big money payouts from big pharma to politicians and the healthcare system. Again, information blackout, nothing reported.

My red line: I can’t trust anybody, journalist or otherwise, who would lie so profoundly to me. Blind and loyal no more, I want to see the CBC News defunded, de-platformed, and preferably sent to the dustbin of history–along with the Liberal party swamp that adores China and is so far down the communist hole they cannot protect this country.

The CBC can peddle its wares in the information marketplace and either sink or swim. The small minority who still want to fund it can pay for it in their cable package. My taxes must not go toward low quality information that actively manipulates, misinforms and misleads. I’ll take high quality indie journalism over corporate swill any day of the week.

Most of us are busy teaching ourselves to be smart consumers of information. The Information Age is racing forward, as are techniques of information warfare. We either rise to the challenge by learning from excellent citizen activists like Sam Cooper who are working on our behalf or we sit passively before the idiot box and accept our ignorance and servitude.
