Lockdowns Killed More Canadians Under 65 Than Covid

5,535 vs 1380

The consequences of government-enforced lockdowns killed more Canadians under the age of 65 than the COVID-19 virus itself, according to a report by Statistics Canada.

In a report titled Provisional death counts and excess mortality, the government agency reviewed the number of deaths between January 2020 to April 2021 and concluded that 5,535 Canadians under the age of 65 died because of “indirect consequences” due to the pandemic.

Over the same time period, 1380 Canadians in the same age group died because of COVID-19 itself.

“Beyond deaths attributed to the disease itself, the pandemic could also have indirect consequences leading to an increase or decrease in the number of deaths due to various factors, including delayed medical procedures, increased substance use, or a decline in deaths attributable to other causes, such as influenza,” the report says.

Statistics Canada acknowledged lockdowns had a significant impact on the number of deaths in Canada, particularly among younger people.

“Excess mortality is, in large part, related to other factors such as increases in the number deaths attributed to causes associated with substance use and misuse, including unintentional (accidental) poisonings and diseases and conditions related to alcohol consumption,” read the report.

As more Canadians were forced to stay at home and vital services and businesses were forced to close, an opioid crisis developed while governments focused on reducing the spread of COVID-19. Statistics Canada confirmed that the increased usage of drugs had a significant impact on the mortality rate during the pandemic.

“There is evidence in Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia that substance use has increased in 2020 compared with previous years, while availability and access to harm reduction programs, supervised consumption services, and in-person support services for substance use may have been disrupted during the pandemic,” the report says.

Earlier this month, Statistics Canada also reported that most of the people who died from COVID-19 in Canada were over the age of 85 and had dementia, Alzheimer’s, chronic heart disease or other pre-existing “cardiovascular and respiratory conditions.”

Nine in 10 deaths had a secondary cause listed on the death certificate.

Canadians have been victims of some of the strictest public health orders in the world, rivalling communist countries like China and Cuba.

The True North Provincial Freedom Score found that Nova Scotia, Manitoba and Ontario were the most locked-down provinces in the country when taking into account business closures, school openings, in-person dining and nearly a dozen other variables.

    Go Canada! Be the 1st to be noted for the “encouraging” results of demonstrating ultimate stupidity by killing more people by means other than the non-disease. The next 1st will be from killing more people via killshots than any other country.

    Everything is a lie,,, probably always has been. Example the recent Cat 4 hurricane. If anyone went to look at Ventusky or Earth they would have seen it was in ‘reality’ a Cat 2. The damage is minimal. If that had been a 4 there would be some serious, really serious damage. So, why lie? To maintain the Globull Warming narrative. To squeeze money from the federale’s. Does anyone ever tire of the lies and bullshit.

    Same for the virus lie. All you have to do is investigate a little. Lies cannot hold up under scrutiny.

      I saw an hilarious clip today, in which Trudeau – on the campaign trail as he is up for re-election – is coaxed into appearing in a selfie video. Once the camera owner has both their faces in the frame, he looks at the camera and solemnly intones, “Communist f**k”. Trudeau scrambles away. He is extremely unpopular. But that’s about as bad as it gets, if you’re a politician. You’re unpopular. Cause anything like the level of public and property damage he has, as a regular private citizen, and you’re going to jail.

    At the time of the first lockdown (late March) in my province due to 5 Covid deaths, I checked the provincial stats on seasonal flu deaths. The quarterly stats (Oct – Dec) reported 5 deaths for seasonal flu. That quarter is not known as a high rate quarter. The next quarter (Jan – Mar) were not available at the time of the lockdown. When I checked a few weeks later, they were not being reported. So, there you have it. The 5 “Covid” deaths occurred in almost the same length of time as the seasonal flu deaths, but magically, seasonal flu had been cured (or was scared away by “Covid”).
    Christine Massey, a bio-statistician, hounded the different levels of government for months on the virus.In November(?) she received confirmation from the Federal Government that there is no proof the virus exists.

    Yet, not a single politician in this country has called bullshit on the entire narrative, The best is one or two whining about masks and lockdowns, which is, as they say, striking the branch, not the root.

    Brainwashed morons are running the Western governments. The Rothschilds own the President, Congress, the Supreme Court, state legislators,,and most governors here in the USA. They have been bribing officials since before the American Revolutionary War. British and French back then in 1600s-1700s, current USA officials now. Elected criminals run this country.

    Canada will collapse like the USA when 50% of the population dies within 3-10 years due to deadly mRNA vaccine.

    “When people who are honestly mistaken learn the truth, they will either cease being mistaken, or cease being honest!” (Anonymous)

    Throughout your entire life you continually DECIDE to either stop being mistaken –or stop being honest– when learning the truth. Which one of the two true answers applies to YOU in terms of the Covid-19 truth?
