The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Saskatchewan claimed that a Regina doctor was engaged in unprofessional conduct for going against a policy that restricted doctors from prescribing Ivermectin or ‘alternative’ therapies.

A doctor working in a medium-sized Canadian city has been suspended and fined for prescribing Ivermectin to some of his patients to treat or prevent one from getting COVID.

On June 7, the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Saskatchewan (CPSS)Ā ruled that Regina doctor Tshipita Kabongo was engaged in unprofessional conduct for going against a policy that restricted doctors from prescribing Ivermectin or ā€œalternativeā€ therapies to patients.

As a result, Kabongo was hit with a one-month suspension starting August 1 and was ordered to pay $44,783.72, which was what it cost for the investigation and hearing.

Kabongo worked at the Integrated Wellness and Health Balance Centre in Regina. From April 2020 to March 2022, he prescribed Ivermectin to some of his patients.

The CPSSĀ policy onĀ ā€œalternativesā€ to the COVID jabs as a means to combat the virus stated that it is ā€œunethical to engage in or to aid and abet in treatment which has no acceptable scientific basis, may be dangerous, may deceive the patient by giving false hope, or which may cause the patient to delay in seeking conventional care until his or her condition becomes irreversible.ā€

Instead, the CPSS only promoted the COVID shots for the virus, which today are known to have many negative side effects.

ā€œThe most effective strategy for preventing COVID-19 continues to be immunization and all Saskatchewan. Ministry of Health approved vaccines provide a high level of protection,ā€ the CPSS said in a joint letter.

According to the CPSS, Kabongoā€™s recommendation of Ivermectin to some of his patients was not ā€œmedicallyā€ necessary because he did not recommend other treatment options.

Health Canada, along with many medical groups in Saskatchewan and in other provinces, in the fall of 2021 said that using Ivermectin to treat COVID was potentially dangerous and claimed that there was no evidence the drugs worked to stop the virus.

However, Dr. Pierre Kory, the author ofĀ The War on Ivermectin,Ā claimed in testimonyĀ that the drug is safe and said some meta-studies show that it has an 81 percent mortality reduction rate in those with COVID.

COVID vaccine mandates, which came from provincial governments with the support of Prime Minister Justin Trudeauā€™s federal government, split Canadian society. Many governmental or private sector workers lost their jobs for refusing to get the shots.

Shots were promoted by health officials as only way to treat COVIDn

The mRNA shotsĀ haveĀ been linked toĀ a multitude of negative and often severe side effects in children.

A recent study by aĀ team of expertsĀ that includes prominent critics of the COVID establishment as well as Dr. Peter McCullough shows that the COVID shots have a 200-times higher risk of brain clots than other injections.

The jabs alsoĀ haveĀ connections to cellĀ lines derived from aborted babies.Ā As a result, many Catholics and other Christians refused to take them.

However, despite health officials in Canada and the United States opposing using Ivermectin, which is historically used to treat parasites and rosacea when applied to the skin, the drug has long been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for a variety of human ailments. In fact, it isĀ includedĀ in the World Health Organizationā€™s (WHOā€™S) Model List of Essential Medicines.

During the earlier days of COVID, the use of Ivermectin to treat COVID gained notoriety, and there have been manyĀ promising studiesĀ along withĀ anecdotal reportsĀ ofĀ positive results from the use of the drugs.

It even got to the point that some families in the United StatesĀ had to go to courtĀ to force hospitals to let them try the medications for their loved ones. Some U.S. doctors have seen their medical licensesĀ threatenedĀ for prescribing it, which prompted states such asĀ MissouriĀ andĀ OklahomaĀ to take action to protect medical freedom for those who wish to try and prescribe them.

Freedom Convoyā€™s Tamara Lich shares heartfelt letter from children: ā€˜God will be by your sideā€™

Published on

By Anthony Murdoch

Ahead of the announcement of the verdict from her trial in Canada, the Freedom Convoy co-leader posted on X the ‘beautiful letter’ from a 4-year-old and 8-year-old.

With a few weeks until a verdict is released, Freedom Convoy leader Tamara Lich shared a heartwarming letter she received from a child, who told her to ā€œkeep fightingā€ for everyone and that ā€œGod will protectā€ her from the ā€œenemy.ā€

Lich shared an image of the letter ThursdayĀ on X, writing, ā€œFeels like a good day to share this beautiful letter I received from some very wise children.ā€

The letter, which was handwritten and sent to Lich by 4-year-old Zavier and 8-year-old Alanis, has the title ā€œGod loves You.ā€

ā€œThank you for fighting for everyones FREEDOM. God will be by your side and God will protect you from the enemy,ā€ the letter reads.

ā€œWith God everything is possible. Stay strong we are praying for you every step of the journey.ā€

Lich wasĀ arrested on February 17, 2022, in Ottawa. Co-leader Chris Barber was arrested the same day.

Lich and Barberā€™s trial concluded in September 2024, more than a year after it began. It was originally scheduled to last 16 days.

Asā€Æreported byā€ÆLifeSiteNews, Lich and Barberā€™s verdict will be announced on March 12.

They both face aā€Æpossibleā€Æ10-year prison sentence. LifeSiteNews reportedā€Æextensivelyā€Æon their trial.

AsĀ reported byĀ LifeSiteNews, Lich recently spelled out how much the Canadian government has spent prosecuting her and Barber for their role in the protests. She said at least $5 million in ā€œtaxpayer dollarsā€ has been spent thus far, with her and Barberā€™s legal costs being above $750,000.

In early 2022, the Freedom Convoy saw thousands of Canadians from coast to coast come to Ottawa to demand an end to COVID mandates in all forms. Despite the peaceful nature of the protest, Prime Minister Justin Trudeauā€™s government enacted the never-before-used Emergencies Act (EA) on February 14, 2022.

During the clear-out of protesters after the EA was put in place, one protester, an elderly lady, wasĀ trampled by a police horseĀ and one conservative female reporter wasĀ beaten by police and shotĀ with a tear gas canister.

TrudeauĀ revoked the EA on February 23.

The EA controversially allowed the government to freeze the bank accounts of protesters, conscript tow truck drivers, and arrest people for participating in assemblies the government deemed illegal.

Red Deer Freedom Convoy protestor Pat King given 3 months of house arrest

Ontario Superior Court Justice Charles Hackland ruled that Pat King must serve three months of house arrest and dedicate 100 hours to community service for his participation in the 2022 Freedom Convoy

Freedom Convoy participant Pat King has been given a 3-month conditional sentence for his role in the 2022 Freedom Convoy protest against COVID mandates.Ā Ā 

On February 19, Ontario Superior Court Justice Charles HacklandĀ ruledĀ that King must serve three additional months of house arrest and dedicate 100 hours to community service for his role in the Freedom Convoy. Kingā€™s sentence would have been 12 months, but the court gave him credit for time served prior to his trial.Ā 

ā€œIn the courtā€™s opinion, there is a social harm to unduly elevating the sentencing rules of denunciation and deterrence in the context of political protests to result in punitive sentences at the top of the sentencing range,ā€ Hackland wrote, explaining why he did not opt to sentence King to a whopping 10-year prison sentence, as the Crown prosecutors had advocated for.

ā€œThe risk is that an overly severe sentence of imprisonment in the context of legitimate, constitutionally protected activity can have the effect of creating a chill or fear of participation in political expression,ā€ he continued.Ā 

In November, King wasā€Æfound guiltyā€Æof two counts of disobeying a court order, one count of mischief, one count of counselling others to commit mischief, as well as one count of counselling others to obstruct police.ā€Æā€ÆĀ 

Kingā€™s charges are in relation to his role in the 2022 Freedom Convoy which featured thousands of Canadians camping out in downtown Ottawa to call for an end to the COVID regulations and vaccine mandates in place at the time.Ā Ā 

Despite the peaceful nature of the protest, Prime Minister Justin Trudeauā€™s government enacted the Emergencies Act on February 14, 2022, to put an end to the popular convoy. Trudeauā€Ærevoked the EAā€Æon February 23, but only after using the powers granted by the legislationā€Æto freeze the bank accounts of protesters, conscript tow truck drivers, and arrest people for participating in the assembly.ā€ÆĀ 

The two main Freedom Convoy leaders, Tamara Lich and Chris Barber, are stillā€Æawaiting theirā€Æverdicts for their involvement in the 2022 protests.ā€ÆLike King, if convicted, they face a maximum prison sentence of 10 years.

While some of the most notable people involved in the protest, like Lich and Barber, face a slew of charges that come with potentially harsh sentences, otherā€Æprotestersā€Æcharged for participating have seen their charges dropped.
