Clarington, Ontario punishes hosts of Liberty Summer Seminar
What price liberty? Up to $50K (www.thestar.com, 18 August 2010)
“The municipality of Clarington is clamping down on a studious celebration of Canadian liberties, charging its rural hosts with a zoning offence carrying a hefty fine….
“Marta Jaworski, 57, said she and her husband, also 57, are “devastated” by the charge, which she called a “taste” of the oppression they felt in Poland before fleeing in 1984 to Germany and later Canada.
““It is a feeling to be hunted. They come in uniforms . . . ,” she said, starting to cry.
I have met the Jaworski family when attending the Liberty Summer Seminar, and I feel very bad about this.
We are not even allowed to have a wish for liberty. Even a hope for liberty is forbidden.
Do people own their own property and have the right to make decisions about what it is used for? No. So we are not free in Canada, and this system is worldwide. Our lives, our resources, our limited personal wealth – if we have any at all – is not safe from official predators and their endless bylaws and other legal traps.
Feudal (or socialist) oppression continues and escalates. Also, the global communitarian system that has grown since Agenda 21 was signed in the early 1990’s will be ever more oppressive on a local level – unless people stop it.
The future we are headed towards – because of lies – is about paying more fines, taxes and carbon taxes, fees we can never endure, until we submit and move off the land and surrender all resources to a global totalitarian system (demonstrated at the G20).
Everybody involved in justifying this type of oppression in the name of “zoning” or “planning” or “public interest” or “the environment” should be ashamed. I don’t care how traditional it is or what the excuse is. If you stick to that, you are tyrants and collectivists, and you have no empathy for your fellow human beings – AT ALL. We need to tear up arbitrary laws that violate rights.
And everyone should think twice before they take their local political “leaders” and officials as being legitimate and should look into what they are really about.
Same with provincial and federal politicians. LOOK at what they are doing to us! The same type of people will send your children off to new wars and they will make us walk through body scanners and every other kind of abomination so they can get their cozy pay-offs when they retire from politics. And while the wars are intensified and we are living in a devastated economy, the local tyrants will run around like a bunch of wolves looting everyone. But now they mostly do this slowly and gently, muttering incantations about some law, or the “common good”, to placate us.
They TAKE everything they can from us, and they have various excuses and rationalizations in “law” prepared in advance through propaganda for us to repeat in order to justify evil. That’s how it works. We are living under a sophisticated form of slavery where we are trained to justify what is done to our fellow human beings.
