Oh Canada. Please Take Heed.
Ok folks. If you’re not really concerned, then you haven’t been listening. If you have been listening and you’re not feeling panicky, then you really need a reality check. To quote from my website: ….Holy Sh*t We’re in Trouble…. ….Humanity is in...
Spreading Knowledge To Overcome Fear
