First, with China's help, allow a flu into the country.
Deny it came from China.
Lock down an entire country, killing its economy and getting people used to being home-bound, in breadlines, away from school, isolated, fearful and ultimately at the point where they turn on their own relatives, friends and co-workers.
Demand the population be injected with an experimental flu shot.
Entice the population with the tantalizing prospects of eating at a restaurant or going to a theatre.
When the public is slow to get this flu shot, start enforcing it in less-than-subtle ways. Have people lose their jobs or restrict their movements, for example.
When not even that works, slander them in one language and hope that they don't hear it.
When not even that works, start cutting off their food supplies and, as an added bonus of poor governance, increase inflation.
And here we are:
Justin Trudeau deflects from his govt's trillion dollar debt that has led to record inflation in Canada, claiming inflation is "a global challenge," spurred on by supply chain disruptions.

Truckers opposed to federal Covid-19 vaccine mandates are preparing to converge on Ottawa in a protest expected to draw a convoy of at least 1600 rigs, according to organizers.
**
Canadian truckers, along with concerned citizens all over the country, decided to take action and plan to drive toward the Canadian Parliament with the intention of having thousands of vehicles pulling into Parliament and parking there, according to the organizers Canada Unity & Truckers United.
A similar action took place on Jan. 17 when a convoy of truckers protested against the mandates in Emerson, Manitoba, near the U.S.-Canada border.
U.S. truckers began to organize their own resistance on Tuesday. The Epoch Times is following the story and will be reporting on the developments.

Labour Minister Seamus O’Regan’s office in correspondence with a senator said paid sick leave for the private sector should be not be too generous to avoid abuse by workers. The letter claimed employees like truck drivers would take advantage of automatic benefits such as ten days’ paid sick leave per year: “Give it to me in writing.”
What high praise you have for the truckers who deliver your hair conditioner, Seamus.

A new poll has found that nearly 60 per cent of Canadians are having a hard time providing enough food for their families.
The poll from the Angus Reid Institute, released on Friday, shows that 57 per cent of Canadians reported having a difficult time feeding their family recently, an increase from 36 per cent when the question was last asked in 2019.
Inflation plays a role in this figure, the report indicates, as Canadians are dealing with the highest level of inflation in 30 years.
(Sidebar: just asking, who did you vote for, Canadians?)

The real and overriding question, however, is why does Canada, or more accurately, why does the government of Canada profess we have a “duty” to the world to work towards eradicating the energy supply and system that we already have, that has mostly served us well, that has brought fortune and security to the nation? Why is the energy future of Canada under the ethos and edicts of the United Nations’ IPCC?

Rising prices are “real pressure” for Canadians, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau yesterday told reporters. His remarks followed new Statistics Canada data that the cost of living is now rising at the fastest rate in 30 years: “What is the government’s plan to try and combat it?”
The plan?
To throw away money, of course:
The Department of Employment yesterday budgeted up to $4 million to pay lockdown benefits to the equivalent of 100 percent of tax filers in a remote Québec hamlet. The department would not comment on discretionary cash awards approved by cabinet order: “The supports we have for people are there to be used.”

The Treasury Board says it does not have a single document, email or memo explaining an $81.9 million budget line item to promote vaccinations in the public service. Board President Mona Fortier could not explain the cost when questioned earlier in the Commons: “No information related to your request exists.”

Canada today offered Ukraine a $120 million dollar loan — and is actively considering sending it a shipment of small arms — as the eastern European nation faces down what Prime Minister Justin Trudeau called an "aggressive" attempt by Russia to destabilize it.
(Sidebar: Russia doesn't care about you or the West, Justin. So there's that.)

Notably, the new study did not account for recent changes to payroll taxes for the Canada Pension Plan (CPP). The Trudeau government (alongside the nine participating provinces) expanded the CPP in January 2019, which has resulted in higher mandatory CPP contributions for Canadian workers. This means even more middle-income families in Canada may now pay higher taxes beyond what the income tax changes alone indicate.
Despite claims to the contrary, Ottawa has increased personal income taxes on the overwhelming majority of middle-class Canadian families.

Statistics Canada reported Wednesday that average wage gains in Canada in 2021 rose by 2.6%, meaning that with a 4.8% annual inflation rate, “prices rose faster than wages, and Canadians experienced a decline in purchasing power.”

Cabinet spent half a trillion since outbreak of pandemic incl. billions that had nothing to do with Covid, according to Budget Office. Little sign of restraint, say analysts. https://t.co/VCYToJbzRy @PBO_DPB @FinanceCanada #cdnpoli pic.twitter.com/lAtV4ND7fr

Canada’s inflation rate hit a 30-year high, a level not seen since 1991, fueled by massive government COVID borrowing and spending, as well as through the funding of extremist environmental programs combined with billions given to pro-abortion groups.
According to the latest Consumer Price Index Data report from Statistics Canada released January 19, compared with this time last year, the cost for goods has risen 4.8 percent, with the highest being in the province of Prince Edward Island, which saw an astonishing 6.7 percent increase.
The cost of food has risen 5.2 percent compared with this time last year, with the cost of fuel, of which significant carbon taxes are imposed, going up a whopping 33.3 percent compared with a year ago.
The costs of owning and operating a private vehicle soared 10.7 percent, with the cost of owning a household going up 14.8 percent overall.
Nationwide, the cost of meat has risen 9 percent, and dairy costs have gone up 3 percent.
The federal government under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has been borrowing billions of dollars over the last two years to fund both its COVID programs and ideologically driven programs.
As a result, Canada’s debt has nearly doubled to approximately $1.2 trillion in the span of less than two years, from around $685 billion in 2019.
Put another way, every person in Canada would have to pay $31,000 for Canada’s debt to be erased.

New Democrat and Liberal MPs yesterday said they’d like to recall grocery executives for questioning over alleged wage fixing. Legislators and the Commissioner of Competition have proposed to outlaw collusion between employers on workers’ pay: “Have them come back and explain.”
I'm sure the money will magically come from somewhere.
