‘I’ve had three shots of the vaccine. I wish I hadn’t, quite frankly,’ B.C. Conservative leader John Rustad said in a recently resurfaced video.

Footage of British Columbia Conservative leader and premier hopeful John Rustad shows him saying he regrets taking the experimental COVID-19 vaccines and thinks government mandates were aimed at controlling the population. 

In an interview, recorded in June but publicized September 23 by Rustad’s political rival, the New Democratic Party (NDP), in a seeming attempt to smear him, the B.C. Conservative leader explained that he regrets taking the COVID vaccines and that mandates instituted in the province at the time weren’t about health, but control.

“I’ve had three shots of the vaccine. I wish I hadn’t, quite frankly,” Rustad said.  

“That’s one of the things that has changed in my thinking. The so-called vaccine, the COVID mRNA shots,” he said, recalling a conversation with B.C. Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry. 

Rustad said the conversation with Henry left him feeling that something wasn’t “quite right.” 

“When I talked to Bonnie Henry about it, I started to realize that it wasn’t so much about trying to get herd immunity or trying to stop the spread, but it was more around shaping opinion and control on the population,” Rustad said.  

Henry became infamous in B.C. thanks to her vaccine policy which prevented unvaccinated health care workers from working for nearly three years.  

Finally, in July of this year, Henry announced that the province is no longer in a public health emergency and is revoking all COVID regulations, including the vaccine mandate. 

In May, Henry’s mandate was challenged in court. The judge ruled that healthcare workers can still be mandated to receive the experimental COVID injections as a condition of employment, but decided that those working remotely are no longer bound by the unscientific rule.   

Hundreds of British Columbia healthcare workers are still suing Henry over the mandate which prevented them from working.   

While Rustad’s comments condemning Henry were made during a July 23 interview with the B.C. Public Service Employees for Freedom which opposes vaccine mandates, the resurfacing of the footage by the NDP ahead of the provincial election this fall seems to suggest the far-left party assumed Rustad’s comments would paint him in a bad light.

However, the video seems to have had the opposite effect, as many online pointed to the video as a reason to vote for Rustad.  

” Y’all don’t realize this will help Rustad’s campaign lol,” pro-freedom nurse Amy Hamm commented 

“This isn’t the win you think it is,” another wrote. “Lots of people regret getting the #Covid_19 ‘vaccines.’ They prevented neither infection nor transmission and your ‘vaccine’ did not ‘keep others safe’ no matter how much you want to believe it.”

Former NYC COVID czar held secret sex parties, flouted his own rules during COVID ‘pandemic’

Published on

From LifeSiteNews

By  Emily Mangiaracina

Dr. Jay Varma admitted that ‘it would have been a big deal’ and ‘a real embarrassment’ if it was publicly known he had sex parties during COVID.

New York City’s former COVID response “architect” held secret sex parties during the pandemic even as he publicly insisted that fellow city dwellers remain isolated, undercover footage shows.

The only way I could do this job for the city is if I found a way to blow off steam every now and then,” Dr. Jay Varma, who served as the “principal scientific spokesperson and architect” for NYC’s COVID pandemic response from April 2020 to May 2021, divulged to an undercover journalist in video footage posted by Steven Crowder on Thursday.

“It’s funny because I did all this deviant sexual stuff while I was on TV,” said Varma, referring to the fact that he had sex parties during the same period he was giving daily televised COVID briefings along with NYC’s mayor. “People are like, aren’t you afraid? Aren’t you embarrassed? And I was like, no, actually, I love being my authentic self.”

However, asked whether he would have “gotten a hard time” if it was publicly known that he held sex parties during COVID, Varma admitted, “It would have been a big deal. It would have been a real embarrassment.”

He told how he and his wife rented out a hotel to have a sex party with eight to 10 people in August 2020 after he had already begun recommending social distancing measures.

“We had to be sneaky about it because hotels didn’t want people gathering there, because I was like running the entire COVID response in the city,” said Varma, going on to share that they took “molly” (MDMA) together.

Then there was the time in 2021 that he joined a dance party of about 200 people underneath a bank on Wall Street — the only time he was nervous, he said.

“I was looking around being like, f***, if anybody sees me here, they’re gonna be pissed. Because this was not COVID-friendly.”

The stunning revelations of the undercover footage are not limited to Varma’s hypocrisy about gatherings and social distancing; his guidelines drove record numbers of adults and children to depression and suicidal ideation.

When the undercover journalist mentioned there were people who would not have sex with the unvaccinated, Varma laughed, telling her that the vaccination status of a person with whom one comes into contact “doesn’t make any difference at all.”

“Everybody’s been exposed to the virus … whether you’re exposed to the virus because someone breathed on you, whether someone injected it in you, it’s the same immune response.”

Yet, he admitted not only to convincing former NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio to implement COVID vaccine mandates but to essentially forcing people to get the dangerous shots. Thus far, 37,910 deaths and 1,645,999 adverse events after COVID shots in the U.S. alone have been reported to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System, which traditionally reports only a small fraction of total vaccine-induced death and injury.

Without acknowledging the health risk of the shots, Varma explained, “So the way we do it in public health is we make it very uncomfortable to be unvaccinated. It’s like you can’t get a job, you can’t go to a restaurant, your kid can’t go to school.”

“But was it technically kind of like forcing people?” the undercover journalist asked.

“Yeah. That’s what you do. You force people by making it really uncomfortable,” Varma said. “The whole idea is that you build barriers so that people are just like, f*** it, I’m just going to do it because I’m tired of being harassed.”

Retired New York City Fire Department Battalion Chief Tom Lapolla, whose job was terminated during the COVID outbreak due to NYC jab mandates, remarked to LifeSiteNews that the video footage makes clear Varma abused his power.

“He’s having orgies. We’re working the plandemic. He gets a good job after he leaves the city. We lose our jobs. This is tyranny. This is an abuse of power,” said Lapolla, who is running for the New York State Assembly.

“I’m hoping that the state AG, or even the federal government, investigates this,” Lapolla continued. “The mandates weren’t legislatively implemented. This isn’t the will of the people. This is the will of a select few, select elites … and people’s lives were destroyed.”

“I know it firsthand,” said Lapolla, citing the 1,500 or so city workers who lost their jobs for refusing the COVID shots, many of whom are still out of work. He mentioned a young woman he knew who, having lost her job, lost her medical coverage as well and was later diagnosed with lymphoma.

“This is atrocious. The mandate was capricious and arbitrary,” Lapolla noted. He is calling on NYC’s current mayor to “rectify” his predecessor’s administration by “hiring back immediately every single member of the NYC workforce who was terminated because of that unjust mandate.”

“He can do it with the stroke of the pen,” Lapolla added. “We want Mayor (Eric) Adams, in light of this revelation, to make those folks whole again.”

Canada approves Moderna’s latest experimental COVID shot starting after 6 months old

Published on

Health Canada’s decision to approve the shots follows a bombshell study of Pfizer and Moderna COVID shots that shows “self-assembling nanostructures.”

Health Canada approved Moderna’s new MRNA COVID-19 vaccine for all Canadians over six months of age.

On September 17th, Moderna announced that its latest COVID-19 vaccine, targeting the KP.2 variant of SARS-COV-2, was approved by Health Canada, despite overwhelming evidence of the dangers of the shots.

“With vaccines ready, Moderna will begin delivery of updated doses to the Public Health Agency of Canada, ensuring supply is available in time for provincial and territorial vaccination campaigns,” the company said in a news release.

“Receiving the most recently updated COVID-19 vaccine is expected to provide a better immune response against circulating COVID-19 strains compared to earlier vaccines,” Moderna claimed. “It is especially important for those at increased risk for COVID-19 infection or severe COVID-19 illness.”

The promotion of the experimental shot comes over three years after government officially declared a COVID “pandemic” and forced Canadians to take the vaccine. Additionally, there has been no outbreak of COVID for several years.

Health Canada’s decision to approve the shots follows a bombshell study of Pfizer and Moderna COVID shots that shows “self-assembling nanostructures.”

According to the report, researchers in Korea observed what appear to be “self-assembling,” “synthetic” nanostructures such as spirals and tubes that form within the contents of the COVID Pfizer and Moderna mRNA shots over the course of months.

Canada’s promotion of the vaccine also comes as Canada’s program to compensate those injured by the COVID vaccines has reached $14 million, but the vast majority of claims remain unpaid.

Despite the need for a federal program to address those injured by the vaccines once mandated by the Trudeau government, Health Canada still says “it’s safe to receive a COVID-19 vaccine following infection with the virus that causes COVID-19. Vaccination is very important, even if you’ve had COVID-19.”

The federal government is also continuing to purchase COVID jabs despite the fact the government’s own data shows that most Canadians are flat-out refusing a COVID booster injection.

Some people who were successful in getting payouts from VISP have said that the compensation awarded was insufficient considering the injuries sustained from the COVID shots.

As reported by LifeSiteNews last year, 42-year-old Ross Wightman of British Columbia launched a lawsuit against AstraZeneca, the federal government of Canada, the government of his province, and the pharmacy at which he was injected after receiving what he considers inadequate compensation from VISP.

He was one of the first citizens in Canada to receive federal financial compensation due to a COVID vaccine injury under VISP. Wightman received the AstraZeneca shot in April 2021 and shortly after became totally paralyzed. He was subsequently diagnosed with Guillain-Barré Syndrome.

Wightman was given a one-time payout of $250,00 and about $90,000 per year in income replacement but noted, as per a recent True North report, that he does not even know if those dollar amounts “would ease the pain.”

LifeSiteNews has published an extensive amount of research on the dangers of receiving the experimental COVID mRNA jabs, which include heart damage and blood clots.

The mRNA shots have also been linked to a multitude of negative and often severe side effects in children.
