2023-09-09 Manufacturing The Threat, Amy Miller filmmaker

Shining a light into the murky world of police infiltration, incitement, and agent provocateurs, Manufacturing The Threat shows how Canada’s policing and national security agencies, granted additional powers after 9/11, routinely break laws with little to no accountability or oversight.

For the first time ever, a feature-length documentary examines the issue of agent provocateurs and entrapment in Canada’s national security apparatus. Manufacturing the Threat is a thrilling and emotional film, which examines a deeply disturbing episode in Canadian history, when an impoverished couple was coerced by undercover law enforcement agents into carrying out a (INSERT / S: an attempted – fake) terrorist bombing. Further, viewers learn that this case is far from unique in the context of Canadian intelligence.

When a young Muslim couple was arrested on Canada Day 2013, caught red-handed planting bombs at the Parliament buildings in Victoria, BC, the news was celebrated as a tour de force for Canada’s national security agencies. Citing the rising threat of Islamic terrorism, the Harper government went on to pass Bill C-51, the Anti-terrorism Act.

However, media and government were relatively silent when the case against the Canada Day bombers fell apart. After the young couple, Omar Nuttall and Ana Korody, had spent three years in prison, they learned that they had been deceived by an elaborate agent provocateur operation managed by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) and the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS).

‘Project Souvenir’ involved over 240 security service operatives, and culminated in their decision to plant fake bombs, constructed with the help of undercover agents, on the BC Parliament Grounds. The Canada Day Bombers had their charges thrown out, and their imprisonment was referred to as a “travesty of justice” by Judge Elizabeth Bennett.

Arbiter in Helen Grus Tribunal: ‘Theories Linking COVID Vaccines to Child Deaths’ Not Welcome

The defence intends to summon several expert witnesses to bolster its claim that Grus’s inquiry into possible links between infant deaths and ‘COVID-19 vaccines’ was substantiated and reasonable.

By Robert Kraychik

Chris Renwick, the hearing officer overseeing the disciplinary tribunal for Const. Helen Grus, said during Thursday’s proceedings in Ottawa, ON, that he would not allow an email chain between the defendant and a witness for the prosecution to be entered as an evidentiary exhibit.

Grus, an officer with the Ottawa Police Service’s (OPS) sexual assault and child abuse (SACA) unit, is being accused of discreditable conduct by the OPS. The charge flows from her inquiries into a possible link between infant deaths and the “vaccination status” of the descendant babies’ mothers, specifically the mRNA injections marketed as “COVID-19 vaccines.” The prosecution has accused Grus of conducting herself insubordinately and conducting illegitimate Records Management System (RMS) searches as part of her inquiry.

Grus’s defence team said their client observed an increase in infant deaths brought to the OPS’s attention and used this data point as part of the rationale for her inquiry.

“I am not going to allow the emails to be entered into the record,” Renwick, the tribunal’s de facto judge, said while siding with the prosecution’s objection to entering an email exchange between the defendant and Staff Sergeant Shelley Rossetti, who formerly worked as the OPS’s SACA unit’s top officer.

The prosecution claimed “public interest privilege” should shield the emails from public disclosure in the hearing, warning that confidential police information was contained within the emails. Renwick, a retired OPS officer without professional legal accreditation, did not provide a legal basis in his siding with the prosecution’s objection.

During cross-examination, Rossetti agreed that Grus’s record as a SACA detective was “exceptional” and the defendant possessed “excellent investigatory abilities” while reviewing one of Grus’s performance reviews.

Renwick also broadly sustained the prosecution’s objection to the defence’s questioning of Rossetti’s notebook during cross-examination, despite Rossetti having the notebook in her possession and consulting it while testifying as a witness.

“We have a right to know what the witness is looking at,” Blair Ector, one of Grus’s defence lawyers, said in response to Renwick’s refusal to allow his cross-examination of Rossetti on the basis of the witness’s notebook. He added, “This is such an abusive process,” and described Renwick’s decision as “an appealable error.”

On Monday, the sixth day of the tribunal, Renwick sided with the prosecution’s objection to deny the defence’s request for Grus’s duty book – which she composed herself in her capacity as an OPC SACA detective – to be disclosed and entered as evidence into the record.

“This hearing cannot and will not be a venue for opinions or theories linking COVID vaccines to child deaths,” Renwick stated on Monday. The defence intends to summon several expert witnesses – presumably subject-matter experts in the fields of medicine – to bolster its claim that Grus’s inquiry into possible links between infant deaths and “COVID-19 vaccines” was substantiated and reasonable.

Renwick will decide on the admissibility of the defence’s requested expert witnesses.

5. 2023-10-11 Word takes off. International story. Trudeau regime puts Canadian detective HELEN GRUS on trial for investigating link between sudden infant deaths (SIDS) and mRNA vaccines. (there are some misunderstandings, I believe – – as I read it, it’s an “internal regime” of the Ottawa Police Dept that has put Helen Grus on trial. The Police investigate deaths. Constable Grus has a lengthy, untarnished record of doing her job well.

There’s a second story in the posting; it comes out of the U.S. The evidence is the same. Police personnel have known the link between vaccinations and SIDS for a long time. They do not talk about it, except amongst colleagues who trust each other.

(The Helen Grus story is a large warning to other police officers, if they want to keep their jobs.)

Worth noting: The real “Serpico” (born in 1936) is following the Helen Grus story, with encouragement for Helen. Some of you will know “Serpico” from the biographical movie.

Francesco Vincent Serpico is an American retired New York Police Department detective, best known for whistleblowing on police corruption. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, he was a plainclothes police officer working in Brooklyn, the Bronx and Manhattan to expose vice racketeering.

In the movie version, Frank Serpico (Al Pacino) is an idealistic New York City cop who refuses to take bribes, unlike the rest of the force. His actions get Frank shunned by the other officers, and often placed in dangerous situations by his partners. When his superiors ignore Frank’s accusations of corruption, he decides to go public with the allegations. Although this causes the Knapp Commission to investigate his claims, Frank has also placed a target on himself. The film is based on a true story. – – The REAL Serpico is following and offers encouragement to Helen Grus.

Lawyer exposes administrative state’s chilling effect on free speech and direct patient care

The administrative state is exposed for its suppression of free speech that ultimately negatively affected direct patient care throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, in a legal analysis by lawyer Lisa Bildy

By Tamara Ugolini

Lawyer Lisa Bildy was one of the speakers last weekend at the Free Speech in Medicine conference in Baddeck, Nova Scotia. While the three-day conference scrutinized public health policies – including those involving gender theory, harm reduction/safe supply and COVID-19 response measures – Bildy discussed regulatory overreach and how it has hijacked independent medical practice(s).

Bildy discussed the role of the administrative state in suppressing free speech and once-independent medical practices. She notes that regulatory bodies play a huge, growing role in this overreach.

“They’re becoming more intrusive into our daily lives. These are the bodies that decide whether you’re licensed as a physician or a psychologist or even a lawyer, and many of them have sort of taken it upon themselves in more recent times to want to control the speech and the opinions [of licensees], sometimes even the beliefs of the professionals that they regulate. They view their mandate as increasingly expansive and that does have an impact – a chilling effect essentially – on whether physicians can feel comfortable speaking up against the prevailing orthodoxy on whatever topic.”

Bildy highlights that this was all exacerbated by the handling of COVID-19 doctrine, when those who agreed with public health diktats could be very rude and aggressive in their approach without fear of reprisal.

“Those who challenged the narrative,” Bildly begins, even if they were politely and eloquently presenting evidence, “were still taken to disciplinary proceedings for their comments, so it was a bit of a double standard.”

“It has been a long, slow process,” Bildy says, on how fringe theories have taken hold of, and blossomed within, the administrative state.

“We’re seeing the effects of it now. If we were paying better attention in the 1990s or early 2000s, we might have been able to nip it in the bud, but we weren’t. And so it’s grown and now we’re experiencing the effects of it in our day-to-day lives a lot more. It seems like a reasonable place to try to reign that in is through testimony and cross-examination of experts.”

While scrutinizing and criticizing unprecedented COVID-19-relate public policy was to be expected, Bildy notes that various colleges like the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO) took the dictatorial stance that it was inappropriate to question public health edicts and doing so would jeopardize public safety.

“It didn’t take long before we had a better handle on what we were dealing with COVID,” notes Bildy, “yet those policies and edicts stayed in place for a lot longer. It became very difficult then for doctors who wanted to raise the other studies, the other critiques, and the data, to be able to do so in a way that didn’t jeopardize their careers. And that, I think, was a huge problem. So maybe it started with good intentions, I’ll give it that, but I think it should have not continued as it did. And onward into even as we stand here, three years later… We can’t assume that there’s an expert class that we’ve appointed that knows everything and that they should be deferred to in every instance. It doesn’t work like that. Science needs to hear from the dissidents and the skeptics and constantly work towards the best answer.”

Bildy ends on a positive note — that the conference represents what society needs to return to, robust debate and discussion over complex issues instead of censorship. Preserving free speech is crucial for a functional and free society and those in attendance at this conference shared this belief.

All charges dismissed against Ottawa protestor

Posted On: October 24, 2023

Video showed Evan Blackman singing “O Canada” on his knees prior to arrest

OTTAWA, ON: The Justice Centre is pleased to announce that all charges against Evan Blackman related to his February 18, 2022 participation in an Ottawa protest have been dismissed. Mr. Blackman had been charged with Criminal Code offences of mischief and obstructing police.

At the time of his arrest, police were conducting an “enforcement action” in downtown Ottawa, clearing the streets of protestors. Evidence against Mr. Blackman consisted of a 14-minute drone video (with no audio) and the testimony of one officer who was on the scene. For approximately nine minutes of the video, Mr. Blackman is recorded as part of a group of protestors standing face-to-face against a line of police officers on Rideau Street. In one part of the video, Mr. Blackman is seen deescalating the situation by holding other protestors back and by putting his hand up to stop protestors from confronting police. He is seen kneeling in front of police during the five minutes leading up to his arrest. At one point, while on his knees, he is seen taking off his hat, putting his hand on his chest, and singing “O Canada.” Mr. Blackman was arrested and released from custody the same day, February 18, 2022.

Once he was released, he realized that he could not access three of his bank accounts. They had been frozen pursuant to the Emergency Economic Measures Order.

Mr. Blackman pled not guilty to all charges and faced a trial on October 23, 2023. Because of the limited evidence and poor memory of the police officer regarding key details of the alleged criminal offences, the Judge dismissed all charges against Mr. Blackman.

“My client and I are thrilled with this outcome,” said lawyer Chris Fleury. “After almost 20 months, Mr. Blackman can finally put this matter behind him.”

Justice Centre urges amending Public Health Act to protect Charter rights and freedoms

Posted On: October 27, 2023

CALGARY, AB: The Justice Centre has submitted to Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and all MLAs a proposal for amending Alberta’s Public Health Act. The proposed amendments would empower MLAs to hold the Chief Medical Officer of Health to account for any laws or health orders that violate the Charter rights and freedoms of Albertans.

Without major amendments to Alberta’s Public Health Act, Alberta’s Chief Medical Officer of Health (CMOH) is now positioned to exercise near-absolute power over the lives of millions of Albertans, for an indefinite period of time, if he or she determines that a public health emergency exists. This dangerous situation has been exposed by the recent Alberta Court of King’s Bench ruling in Ingram v. Alberta.

Two aspects of the Ingram ruling are particularly troubling.

First, the Court ruled in Ingram that elected representatives should have no effective oversight over CMOH orders that violate the fundamental Charter freedoms of conscience, religion, expression, association and peaceful assembly. The CMOH can also violate the Charter rights to privacy and bodily autonomy by imposing mandatory vaccination policies, turning Albertans into second-class citizens if they decide not to get injected with whatever the CMOH may wish them to get injected with.

Second, the Ingram ruling ignores the abundant evidence placed before the Court about the significant harms that lockdowns inflicted on citizens. Without considering the harms to the mental, physical, psychological, spiritual and financial well-being of vulnerable Albertans, Justice Barbara Romaine simply states her general impression that the health orders that violated Charter freedoms had salutary benefits that outweighed their deleterious effects.

In short, the Court has interpreted the currently worded Public Health Act as providing virtually unlimited powers to an unelected and unaccountable CMOH to violate Charter rights and freedoms at will, without oversight by elected representatives. Through Ingram, the Court has also sent a clear signal to the CMOH that they need not think much about the harm and suffering that her lockdowns and vaccine mandates might inflict on vulnerable people; no serious cost-benefit analysis will be required by the Court. This is reality in Alberta today, post-Ingram.

“The only viable way to protect Albertans’ Charter rights and freedoms is to amend the Public Health Act such that it provides for transparency, democratic accountability, respect for science, and respect for human rights and constitutional freedoms,” stated lawyer John Carpay, president of the Justice Centre.

“In light of the failure of courts in Alberta to uphold and protect our Charter rights and freedoms during a public health emergency, these changes to the Public Health Act and Alberta Human Rights Act are sadly necessary,” continued Carpay.

2023-10-27 Statement: John Carpay innocent of criminal wrongdoing, charges stayed. Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF)

Vaccinations (incl corruption of science & govt) No Responses »

Nov 032023

On October 27, 2023, Manitoba Crown Prosecutors stayed the criminal charges they had brought against Alberta lawyer and Justice Centre president John Carpay for intimidation (Criminal Code section 423) and obstructing justice (Criminal Code section 139).

It was more than two years ago that Mr. Carpay apologized for having made an error in judgment by having included a judge in the passive surveillance of government officials. The sole purpose and intent of this passive surveillance in 2021 was to attempt to determine the veracity, or lack thereof, of rumours that Manitoba government officials (including judges) were not complying with the Covid restrictions which they themselves had placed on the people of Manitoba. During lockdowns, media reported that many government officials across Canada did not follow Covid restrictions.

The decision of the Crown to stay the charges reflects the fact that there was never any criminal wrongdoing on the part of Mr. Carpay. There was nothing criminal about Mr. Carpay’s error in judgment. There was never any intent to interfere with the course of justice or with the judicial process.

More than 17 months after this passive surveillance had taken place, Mr. Carpay was unexpectedly arrested on December 30, 2022, and spent 23 hours in jail during his Christmas holidays.

Lawyers in Manitoba and across Canada routinely hire private investigators, particularly in the practice of family law and insurance law. Crown Prosecutors know that there is nothing criminal about operating a private investigation business, or retaining a private investigator, or conducting passive surveillance. It is worth noting that no criminal charges were filed against the private investigators who conducted surveillance on the judge and on other government officials.

Further to a court appearance on Friday October 27, Mr. Carpay has entered into a civil Peace Bond Order through which he has agreed not to practice law for three years, and by which Mr. Carpay also agreed not to contact the Manitoba judge Glenn Joyal for three years. Mr. Carpay has never contacted this judge previously, apart from writing a letter of apology in October 2021. Mr. Carpay is already an inactive (non-practicing) lawyer, and will continue to carry out his responsibilities with the Justice Centre as he has been doing since 2010: fundraising, media relations, public speaking, and writing articles and columns.

Depriving a man of his liberty and of the company of his family and friends, particularly during his short Christmas vacation, was extremely stressful for Mr. Carpay and his family. It appears that these charges were brought against Mr. Carpay for political reasons, in an attempt to intimidate him.

Upon his release from prison on December 31, 2022, Mr. Carpay stated in a short video: “I am not going to be intimidated, and I’m going to keep on speaking out against … all the violations of our rights and freedoms.”

Mr. Carpay has borne the costs of paying for his own legal defence, and no Justice Centre funds have been expended in respect of this matter.

Mr. Carpay is extremely grateful for the encouragement and for the financial assistance which he has personally received from citizens across Canada who have supported him during the past nine months as he defended himself against these criminal charges.

Those wishing to donate to Mr. Carpay personally, to help pay off $20,000 in outstanding legal bills, are welcome to donate at Give-Send-Go.

Ontario physician found guilty of professional misconduct for questioning government COVID-19 edicts

Dr. Mark Trozzi faces the potential loss of his license pending a disciplinary hearing next week, despite his lawyer’s argument that the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario lacks the legislative authority to impose these punitive measures.

By Tamara Ugolini

Ontario physician found guilty of professional misconduct for questioning government COVID-19 edicts

The College of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario (CPSO) ruled in a Disciplinary Tribunal that Dr. Mark Trozzi is guilty of professional misconduct, dishonourable conduct, and incompetence in the practice of medicine, as stated in a press release from his lawyer, Michael Alexander.

Dr. Trozzi’s verdict comes in light of his outspoken questioning of the government’s COVID-19 edicts, including having the audacity to issue medical exemptions for novel mRNA COVID-19 injections in support of a patient’s right to decline medical treatment, a right protected by the Ontario Health Care Consent Act and section 7 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

The CPSO placed three COVID-19 restrictions on medical professionals in 2021, prohibiting doctors from making statements that discouraged adherence to COVID-19 public policies and recommendations. These restrictions also encompassed prescribing alternative Health Canada-approved COVID-19 treatments and issuing medical exemptions for the novel injections.

Lawyer Michael Alexander had previously asserted that the CPSO lacked the legal authority to investigate doctors critical of COVID-19 measures, as these measures were considered recommendations or guidelines rather than legislated laws or regulations.

Alexander stated that the Tribunal ignored this argument completely, even though they cited the Ontario Divisional Court and the Ontario Court of Appeal in support of their position:

The Tribunal totally ignored our cross-examination of the College’s expert witnesses, which makes the entire decision a complete travesty. On cross [examination], the College’s main expert witness on Covid science, Dr. Andrew Gardam, admitted that he had never responded to the 41-page expert provided by Dr. Trozzi in which he rebutted Gardam’s own 8-page expert report with 29 scientific citations. As a result, in closing submissions, we argued that Dr. Trozzi was unrefuted on Covid science; yet, the Tribunal made no mention of this fact.

The Tribunal wrote up the prosecution’s position on almost every issue. The one saving grace was the College’s acknowledgement that the right to free expression includes the right to make statements that may be wrong or mistaken. However, that position is difficult to reconcile with the Tribunal’s view that Dr. Trozzi can be punished for spreading misinformation.

After a five-day hearing in July 2023, the College Tribunal deemed Dr. Trozzi to have unacceptable views that were inflammatory and unprofessional. Dr. Trozzi’s medical license hangs in the midst while he awaits a penalty hearing scheduled for November 10.

“Would you consider being the spokesperson
for the NCI?”

When National Citizens Inquiry lead council, Shawn Buckley, asked me the question in our first phone conversation together, I was gobsmacked. Would I consider volunteering as the voice of a national organization dedicated to finding, recording, and pre-senting truthful evidence about Covid mandates and their impact on Canadians?

There was no other answer for me but yes.

In a matter of days, I’d arranged my life to travel across the country for 2 months. It was, as it turns out, just the beginning of a growing and historical movement to out the truth and unite the country. And it took more than any of us had bargained for.

Physically, it was punishing.

We sat in windowless hotel rooms, hearing horrifying and heartbreaking testimony for 9-12 hours a day, listening to over 300 people during 24 hearing days in 8 different cities from coast to coast. On the “breaks” I interviewed witnesses and at the end of the hearing days I recorded “sit-down” summary videos of the day’s testimony that couldn’t possibly do justice to each and every witness. I’d then rush out for a late dinner and head back to the hotel to review stories from the day before, answer any urgent texts, calls, and emails, and get into bed by midnight, only to be up at 7am to start all over again.

On non-hearing days, I wrote stories, gave interviews, and travelled to the next city. There was no time for reflection or introspection, no walking or exercise, no daylight, no downtime.

Mentally, it was taxing.

I understand why people would rather watch. It takes nothing. In fact, it dulls our senses nd lulls us into a kind of self-numbing trance that allows us, for a short while, to forget the real tragedy and horror happening in the real world.

Comprehending complex scientific evidence necessitates full attention and alertness. Listening to legal issues and economic assessments can be challenging. And there is only so much information one can absorb hour after hour, day after day. But the commitment to honour each witness’s contribution overrode any desire to step out or miss just one witness.

Emotionally, it was draining.

When I took on this role, what encouraged me most was not the lineup of superstar scientists, valiant doctors, and other expert witnesses. What gave me hope about the Inquiry was the prospect of ordinary Canadians hearing the stories, the real lived experiences, of fellow Canadians. It would be difficult, but this, I believed, would connect us once again with the kindness and compassion we are known for. Because we had lost our way during Covid.

What I witnessed was a degradation of natural human response to the suffering of others that could only have been usurped by the implementation of the greatest psychological assault we’ve ever experienced.

In the darkest days of Covid, we not only allowed but encouraged the medical segregation and shaming of our own families, as well as the loss of livelihood of friends and colleagues, and, most shockingly, the harm to our children through the traumatic sacrifice of their freedoms for the supposed protection of the health of their elders. An obscene reversal of roles from which they will spend a lifetime recovering. Some never will. Some never did, as self harm and suicide went way up.

We have yet to feel the societal impact of thousands of kids who permanently dropped out of school. We have no idea what a generation of children subjected to psychological warfare will have on the future of this country or any country. We cannot begin to know the physical impact of an experimental medical intervention that is already causing sudden death in the young.

And then there are the injection injuries. Those who experienced the most physical harm were the people who were coerced, pressured, or just trusted the government’s assurance of a “safe” and “effective” “vaccine.”

And as Dr. Mark Trozzi testified, all three words turned out to be a lie.

It was the testimony of the “vaccine” injured that was among the hardest to hear. Those of us listening to a daily litany of tragic outcomes of political decisions that ruined lives took solace in each other. We hugged and cried. With the witnesses and with each other.

Psychologically, it was traumatizing.

Hearing this direct experience of physical, emotional, mental, and financial hardship took something more than just listening. It required a willingness to experience a full range of human emotions. But this was the real gift of the NCI.

In the clouds of despair, there lay a silver lining — the mechanism by which we could reestablish our reputation for kindness and compassion. Bearing witness.

As we heard these unimaginable stories, the false division of vaxxed versus unvaxxed began healing. The testimony of those who took the shot served to disintegrate the “us versus them” narrative that the government tried so hard to push.

We have all been misled. We have all been victimized by a government-sanctioned, government-promoted, culture of fear and blame. But no more. We have each other and we have each other’s stories. And it is these stories which must continue to be heard.

Watching and sharing the testimony of the witnesses of the National Citizens Inquiry is a means to awaken those who suspect that something is rotten in the state of Denmark, but don’t yet know what is happening or how to stop it. This is why we were inspired to start the #ThisIsCanada campaign, encouraging people to put flyers into mailboxes asking others to watch and share.

Because we know, I know from personal experience, that you cannot watch a day of NCI testimony without being changed.

Spiritually, it was the most challenging and rewarding thing I’ve ever done.

The National Citizens Inquiry was, and is, a part of history that has the potential to make us who we were born to be. To encourage, embolden, and empower us to be our greatest selves, and to take responsibility for what we allowed to happen here. It was, and is, an olive branch between cleaved communities and colleagues, fractured friends and families. It was, and is, an opportunity to begin a new conversation with a clean slate.

We can honour the courageous men and women who testified by ensuring their stories are seen, and never forgetting that this was allowed to happen in Canada. As word spread of this unprecedented event, a Canadian family was created. A vast network of volunteers, most of whom don’t even know each other but share a commitment to truth, justice, personal responsibility, and accountability.

While the NCI’s stated purpose was, “to listen, to learn, and to recommend,” it has become about so much more. It is the mechanism by which we can awaken the power of each of us to create the country, the society, the world in which we want to live. It has become a new muscle to exercise our democracy.

The Commissioners report will be released this fall, making many recommendations based on the evidence heard. But it is up to each of us, the citizens of Canada, to ensure that something is done with it. We must be willing to face the truth and to be the change. To rekindle our kindness and compassion, to admit our mistakes, and then to stand together to hold those responsible to account.

Because that is who we are.

And this is why I feel proud and privileged to be a part of the National Citizens Inquiry.

In the words of Shawn Buckley during his closing statements in Ottawa, “Canadians don’t cower.” It’s time for all of us to stand on common ground. Because history is calling and THIS is Canada.

1. EXCERPTS, GLOBAL TV NEWSCAST

2023 – February 02 Medicago to cease operations in Quebec, scuttling COVID-19 vaccine production plans

. . . With the Japan-based Mitsubishi Chemical Group deciding to “proceed with an orderly wind-up of its business operations in Canada and the United States,” Medicago announced the group would be ceasing all operations at the company.

, , , The month after its approval from Health Canada, the Covifenz vaccine was rejected by the World Health Organization because of Medicago’s ties to tobacco giant Philip Morris, which owned a one-third stake in the company. Philip Morris cut ties with Medicago in December.

. . . Now, its reason for terminating its operations with Medicago have to do with the current global demand of the COVID-19 vaccine, along with “economic context for the COVID-19 vaccine and the challenges Medicago faces in its transition to commercial production.”

, , , development of the Covifenz vaccine will be discontinued entirely.

, , , construction on a new, 90,000-square-metre facility and headquarters in Quebec City will be stopped, and “appropriate arrangements” including the property’s sale “will be considered in the winding down process,” he said.

, , , In 2020, Medicago received $173M from the federal government for facility construction and research and development of the vaccine.
