Who is Jordan River Anderson? Jordan was a young boy from Norway House Cree Nation in Manitoba who was born with significant health issues. Due to ongoing disagreements between the provincial and federal governments as to who would be responsible for paying for Jordan's at-home care, Jordan unfortunately passed away at the age of 5 in the hospital, having never been able to live in his own home. In April 2025, Geordie is slated to present our show Jordan and due to the withdrawal of a major funder, we need your help. Geordie wants to ensure that the story of Jordan River Anderson can be still shared. This story is far too important not to share, regardless of the financial implications: there is no reconciliation without truth, and it’s unacceptable that the government is still failing to meet the healthcare needs of Indigenous youth and their communities in their times of need. By sharing this story with hundreds of audience members, Geordie hopes to raise awareness around Jordan’s Principle, and the work that still needs to be done to continue to strive for reconciliation.

The recent WHO pandemic treaty (revision) attempted to legally bind countries to global vaxx mandates. ...this was not a good idea considering that mRNA technology did not "flatten the curves" and evidently causes more problems than it can solve (at least at this time). I know people who were adversely affected by the vaxx mandate. They tried to "do the right thing". They got shots and now they are debilitated and can't work. Many who did not take the shots also lost jobs. I've seen the homeless population in the northern VA increase, e.g. tent camps similar to California. So what benefits have we derived from mandates? ...when we had a survival rate of over 97% for reported cases before the first vaxx Dec 14, 2020? If the shots were "safe and effective" then why has the PREP Act been extended to protect vaxx makers from lawsuits stemming from their drugs not being "safe or effective"? https://lnkd.in/ePKn3GDZ Why do we have legislation to protect vaxx companies but not very much in the way to help those who were coerced (by mandates) into getting vaxxed and got injured? Will the current administration address this before the 2024 election? Now that the WHO pandemic treaty has met its fate, when is the US government going to step in and "do the right thing" to help people suffering from vaxx side effects and long COVID due to "breakthrough infections" (i.e. failure cases of shots)? We need to extend the range of response strategies. We should focus on multi-pronged strategies that prevent or reduce the probability of exposure in the first place.
🚨 GOOD NEWS: The WHO’s pandemic treaty is dead + most of the amendments to the IHR appear to be on life support. The WHO + its big funders may have lost this round, but they'll be back. Help us end the coercion that permits mandating the childhood 💉 schedule. DONATE ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/gtCfPiTu
