CTV NEWS REPORTS - As for November 15, 2020 10,947 dead in Canada but 10,781 were senior in long-term care!

In June, the CBC reported 80% of deaths were in long-term care. The CTV report may not be accurate, but I think we can trust the CBC number. What is the number now though and why is it so hard to verify, what do they not want us to know? Whether it is 80% or 99%, it still reveals that the overwhelming bulk of deaths are of the elderly and infirm and these poor souls may have died regardless in the next year. This is not too discount their value but to condemn the government for its dereliction and the Cardinal for his banning of Mass and the destruction of the economy for a number that is nowhere near the infection rate. 

...

A report on CTV Network in Canada revealed a shocking number. The report took place on November 15, 2020 revealing that 10,947 persons in Canada had died of China Virus. Shockingly, 10,781 were seniors in long-term care. Therefore, across the whole wide range of Canada from sea to see to sea, as of November 15, only 166 persons not living in long-term care facilities died of China Virus.

One hundred and sixty-six!

Dealing with my home province of Ontario and Toronto, this is an indictment of incompetence and bombastic moronic evil on the part of Doug Ford and John Tory and our public health bureaucrats. Our Archbishop, Thomas Cardinal Collins, has been taken in by them and has shut down the public worship of God until at least December 21 and will probably blow out Christmas, the very Christ's Mass from which the name derives.

Not even in the communist era in Poland did the communist government shut down churches and order an end to the Holy Mass being offered publicly.

Doug Ford, John Tory and Cardinal Thomas Collins have outdone Communist First Secretaries Boleslaw Biret, Wladyslaw Gomulka, Edward Gierek, Wojciech Jaruzelski combined. How does that make you feel, gents? You've outdone them.

All of them have failed. They have failed to protect the vulnerable under their care and now they have engineered a fraud in order to cover up their own deceit and incompetence.

I am at a loss. This is just evil. These men are failures. They are scoundrels. They need to be held to account, in this world and the next!

Bergoglio meets with rich American sports stars to talk about social justice

He won't meet with Cardinal Zen over his destructive pro-communist China policies and the persecution of the real Catholic Church in China. He refused to meet Cardinal Burke. But he never misses and opportunity to meet with celebrities.

Rich celebrities.

Not a mask in site. Not one. Though he has cancelled all Advent and Christmas liturgies due to the China Virus.

Not. One. Mask.

Surely he preached to them of Jesus Christ and the need to enter fully His Church outside of which there is no salvation.

Surely.

Bishop Michael Power - Cardinal Thomas Collins - two bishops of Toronto, Irish - that is where the similarity ends!

Though the non-church going and presumably lapsed-Anglican ignoramus and Premier of Ontario, Douglas Ford has reduced capacity of all places of worship to ten the Cardinal Archbishop of Toronto one upped him. "Oh yeah? I'll just cancel public Mass, I'll show ya whose Boss, so there!"

The first bishop of Toronto had something much worse than China virus to deal with. There are some comparisons between Michael Power and Thomas Collins. Two men, Irish Catholics and both Bishops of Toronto. 

One had a courage of a lion and one did not.

You decide which one.

"In Toronto, Peel and everywhere that churches have prohibited public Mass, what would Bishop Power say? How would he lead during the current crisis? Would he pour himself out in leadership and service to an increasingly dispirited flock or would he surpass the ten-person government mandate and take away the public celebration of the Holy Sacrifice, removing public, in-person worship from Catholics badly in need of hope, badly in need of Christ?"

McDermott  writes that "In a Catholic Register staff editorial from June 8, 2017, Cardinal Thomas Collins lauded Bishop Power’s “sacrifice and service.” According to the editorial, Bishop Power assuaged the sick and dying with “the experience of Heaven to those who were suffering that hell.”

Thomas Collins has rather brought to his people the experience of hell when they desire heaven on earth.

John Zmirak Shares His Personal Knowledge Of The "Authenticity" Of Sidne...

Good morning Ontario and enjoy your last opportunity to engage in the public worship of God in Toronto!

Well, looky here.

In all of Ontario with 14,446,515 people, nearly 500 hospitals and 20,000 hospital beds there are 513 people in hospital with the China Virus.

But you won't be able to worship God at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and you can't get a haircut or browse your main street independent store for your winter boots, unless it is Costco or Walmart - then hundreds can browse at a time. The photo at the right was taken yesterday at the local Costco in southwest Toronto.

So, you can go to Costco to buy your toilet paper in a line of hundreds but 50 people can't gather at St Clare of Assisi in Woodbridge which holds 1,000 or St. Michael's Cathedral which holds 900. Catholic and non-Catholic Christian church goers have not caused these spikes. Jews going to synagogue have not caused spikes.  Not enough are going to church. Those that are attending follow the guidelines and I can tell you that church pastors are being responsible with the cleaning. So, what is the problem?

On the matter of the Premier, my sources who know him and have spoken with him tell me that he is being pulled from both sides, particularly those who want a whole shutdown. His common sense has enabled him to resist it. He is trying to stay on the road without being pulled into a ditch. At the same time, the Cardinal Archbishop of Toronto, will, as of tomorrow deny God His due public worship. 

513 people out of 14,446,515.

But you can't go to Mass!

Cardinal Collins cancels public Mass in Toronto and west of Archdiocese - more to follow?

Earlier today, Ontario Premier Douglas Ford put two regions, Toronto and Peel to the west, under serious restrictions. Included in this is a limit of ten persons at religious services. In response. Toronto's Cardinal Thomas Collins has decreed that the celebration of public Mass in these areas is suspended.

As of this writing, there are 518 people in hospital in the Province of Ontario. From Windsor at the border with Detroit past the Thousand Islands shared with upstate New York and past Ottawa to Quebec. Across Superior to the Manitoba border, 518 people out of 20,000 hospital beds for a population of 13.5 million. That is 0.003% of the population. 

Utter insanity and wickedness.

Understand this. Premier Douglas Ford has not closed churches nor has he ordered the ending of public Worship of God and the abolition of the Sacraments.

Thomas Collins, the "Pope in Toronto" has done this. 

An absolute and utter disgrace.

Read it and weep, along with Jesus.

November 20, 2020 

To all clergy, staff and the faithful of the Archdiocese of Toronto,

Before providing an update on the latest measures implemented by the province of Ontario regarding churches in the Archdiocese of Toronto, I wish to express my gratitude and admiration for the heroic work that has taken place following our June re-opening. 

Since that time, more than 1.3 million Catholics have attended Mass in our archdiocese. Following our robust WorshipSafe protocols, clergy, staff and volunteers have created a safe and welcoming environment, ensured proper distancing, the use of masks, as well as sanitizing churches after every service. You have also reached out with creativity and love to care not only for the sick and bereaved, but also for the needs of those suffering in other ways, who are isolated, who are facing psychological and spiritual trauma. You have been there for them. I thank you for fostering a culture of compassion that is needed more than ever, in the midst of this pandemic. 

Participation in the Mass and especially the opportunity to receive the Eucharist and other sacraments gives all of us the spiritual strength to not only endure the crisis, but also to reach out to serve, day after day, all of those who are suffering. 

We also must recognize the gravity of the situation before us. The number of positive cases of Covid-19 continues to rise at an alarming rate in many areas of our own archdiocese and in other regions of the province and country. We are still in the midst of a pandemic, which has already taken the lives of more than 11,000 Canadians. 

We are grateful to those who have been dedicated to fighting the virus – first responders and front line workers along with those working selflessly in our long-term care homes among others. In my conversations with political leaders and medical officers of health, I continue to assure them of our ongoing prayers as they make difficult decisions to protect all of us. 

In view of all of the above, I am deeply disappointed that, in some regions of the archdiocese, we must restrict participation in the sacraments (details enclosed). This will inflict a great spiritual pain upon those who safely and with great dedication have been drawing spiritual strength to sustain them, and to help them to serve those suffering in this pandemic. As we have demonstrated our ability to safely worship together, I trust that we will soon be able fully to resume public worship. 

Meanwhile, now is the time to go ever deeper in prayer, and with continued love and creative zeal, build up our community of faith and reach out even more to those who are suffering in these difficult days. 

Sincerely in Christ,  

Archbishop of Toronto 

Recognizing the health and safety measures announced by the Province of Ontario on November 20, 2020, I am directing parishes to implement the following in their respective regions: 

Toronto & Peel Region (Lockdown – Emergency Restrictions) 

• By Monday, November 23, 2020, parishes must restrict attendance inside the church to 10 people, including priests hearing confessions or a staff member/volunteer required to monitor capacity restrictions. Due to these measures, public Masses must be temporarily cancelled. Priests are asked to celebrate private Mass daily for the intentions of parishioners and for those suffering from Covid-19. 

• Churches, wherever possible and according to the judgement of the pastor, are encouraged to remain open for private prayer and for the faithful to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Weddings, funerals and baptisms (without Mass) are restricted to 10 persons, including those who are involved in ministry (priest, cantor, etc.). First Holy Communions and Confirmations should be postponed at this time. 

• Parishioners are encouraged to view online/livestream/televised Masses. A full list is available at www.archtoronto.org and I will continue to celebrate the livestreamed Mass each day from St. Michael’s Cathedral Basilica at 7:30 a.m. 

• No meetings should take place in parish halls or other church spaces at this time. The only exception would be those deemed as essential services eg. Alcoholics Anonymous/Narcotics Anonymous Meetings. These meetings should be restricted to 10 people and ensure that all appropriate health and safety measures are in place (use of masks, hand sanitizer, physical distancing, etc.). Virtual meetings should replace in-person meetings wherever possible.

·       Parish offices should move to Phase 1 – Parish Offices Closed/Significant Operating Restrictions. Only essential staff in the office. Employees should work remotely wherever possible. Parish offices closed to the public - limited essential appointments only. Staff should take direction from the pastor regarding the local situation on the most prudent approach. In larger parishes, it may be possible to rotate staff.

York & Durham Regions (Red Zone – Control Restrictions) 

• By Monday, November 23, 2020, parishes must restrict attendance at all liturgical celebrations (Mass, Weddings, Funerals, Baptisms, First Holy Communions, Confirmation, etc.) to 30% capacity. Please continue to ensure strict adherence to sanitization, distancing and other measures as outlined in our protocols.
• No meetings should take place in parish halls or other church spaces at this time. The only exception would be those deemed as essential services eg. Alcoholics Anonymous/Narcotics Anonymous Meetings. These meetings should be restricted to 10 people and ensure that all appropriate health and safety measures are in place (use of masks, hand sanitizer, physical distancing, etc.). Virtual meetings should replace in-person meetings wherever possible.
• Parish offices should move to Phase 2 – Limited Operations.

Simcoe Muskoka & Orangeville (Orange Zone – Restrict Measures) 

• No change to current operations. Parishes must restrict attendance at all liturgical celebrations to 30% capacity. 

• Indoor meetings restricted to 50 people maximum.

Catholic bishop doxes Catholic layman!

Rick Stika, the Catholic bishop of Knoxville, has publicly doxed Dr. Taylor Marshall on the internet's most evil place. We've written about Stika before, you can click on the index label below to read if you wish. Stika is a mean man. A cruel man. He displays narcistic personality disorder and sociopathic tendencies. He has not sympathy or respect for others and he publicly slanders. A cleric bereft of charity and common decency. 

He needs to get off of Twitface and repent. What does the Bishop do all day?

Are are killing the future for those of no faith and afraid to die?

The same society that allows doctors and mothers to kill babies in the womb and jabs a needle to kill someone with euthanasia is killing the economy because a handful of old people who have little to no faith in anything other than their baby-boomer lives, are afraid to die.

This article is from the CBC today and forces us to take a closer look:

I don't wish to be callous. I don't want to see anyone suffer unnecessarily and die but are we seriously contemplating shutting Ontario down again for this? There are 32 deaths of which 29 were over 79 and 26 of those were in long term care.

Quarantine long-term care. Protect the vulnerable.

The rest of us need to use common sense.
