Holding Our Government Accountable: Preston Manning

November 11, 2025

There has been a great deal of attention paid recently to the completion of the National Citizens Inquiry. A panel of four commissioners who heard testimony from 305 witnesses, 94 of them expert witnesses. Their 5,000 page plus report made thousands of recommendations that could prevent the violations of Canadians’ rights from happening again.

But there is a problem with the NCI. It is a public inquiry, conducted by members of the public and as such carries no weight with the government. As testimony to this, 63 government witnesses were invited to testify. None of them did.

Meanwhile, in Alberta, where the Court of King’s Bench earlier this year ruled the Covid mandates to be illegal, Premier Danielle Smith commissioned an expert panel to review the actions of the previous government. Actions which, as in all provinces in Canada, resulted in devastating harms to the people and to the economy.

Premier Smith commissioned this panel in January, shortly after replacing former premier Jason Kenney, whose government was responsible for these actions.

Preston Manning, the founder of the Reform Party, former leader of the federal opposition, and of course an experienced legislator, served as Chairman.

In this interview, Preston reveals what was found by the panel, and gives us details on some of the more significant of the 20 areas of recommendations which they have made to the Alberta government for amendments to Alberta law which would prevent the government from trampling on the rights of Albertans, should another health emergency, real or not, occur.

The panel’s recommendations are significant, in that they would take away from appointed officials, such as the Public Health Officer, the right to mandate actions for the people. Appointed officials are not accountable to the public, and as has been seen across Canada, this allows them to violate our rights with relative impunity. The panels recommendations would place that power with elected officials, who are subject to accountability to the people who elected them.

    We can’t forget that our Premier is trying to nudge along the very government that implemented all these illegalities. She’s likely having as much difficulty as you and I are having in waking our friends and family to the truth. It’s moderate and careful reports and discussions like these ones, that move the needle bit by bit. I too would like to see the decayed system exploded (figuratively), but could any of us handle the ensuing chaos and who’s to say the results would be better? It’s taken a lifetime to see things degrade this badly and it’ll take a long determined effort to change them for the better. I’m excited to see it happen.

    I do applaud the “moving forward” with changes to stop what occurred from occurring again, but what i don’t applaud is the systemic refusal to address the genocide that is occurring and holding those accountable – take their jobs, take their money and put them away. No amount of smooth talking is going to change that feeling for any Canadians. No healing will happen until it is dealt with.

    I was actually quite offended by Prestons’ demeanor in this interview as he cajoled his way through like Santa telling you that the elves are working hard on your behalf; without reading the letter [of wishes] you sent.

    The fox is in the henhouse so we’ll just ask them politely to play nice?

    We’ve seen how that has worked out. All Cause Mortality up 300% and no relief in site. People dropping dead in their homes and found days later while their loved ones are expeditiously disintegrating from Turbo Cancers?

    Ho Ho Ho, gotta change a word here and there y’know.

    Yeah, right.

    The Politicians are clearly not representing “We the People” so how do we fix this?

    Our Federal and Provincial Governments and bureaucrats are captured by greater international forces, so how do we fix this?

    Big Pharma can harm “We the People” and fix this with an amount allocated on the Balance Sheet under Liabilities; generally considered “a cost of doing business’?

    “Give the Courts a little more direction with which to make decisions” when there is no “Rule of Law”?

    We don’t need Legislators nor do we need more Lawyers.

    We need long term solutions with a Society free from psychopathic interference and sociopathic influence.

    More red tape to counter the existing red tape will not work.

    We need some white tape; lots of it.

    Giving the power to manage an emergency to a unelected “management” means that they are not answerable to the public. Elected representatives need to be in the position to oversee emergency management and the decision about whether or not something is a legitimate health emergency. If this decision is not reigned in we will see this happen again. The WHO is working hard to get the power to declare anything an emergency. What about that????

    It should have been easily recognized by honest elected and medical officials that the entire “pandemic” was a contrived scam by the speed with which it was implemented and off the shelf medications prohibited.

    In Canada, unbelievably the NOBEL PRIZE WINNING, NUMBER ONE SAFE AND EFFECTIVE Covid treatment – IVERMECTIN – is still being blocked and attacked with false propaganda THREE YEARS LATER, in favor of expensive, ineffective new drugs for the benefit of the profiteering pharmaceutical industry.

    Prior to the jab rollout health data showed no increase in all cause mortality, which equals NO PANDEMIC and seasonal flu disappeared by 98% – so obviously the numbers were being relabeled as Covid by an inaccurate testing method, which was never designed to diagnose illness according to its NOBEL PRIZE winning inventor.

    With all due respect to the council the Covid “tests” were being shipped 11 days after the first case was officially recognized – IMPOSSIBLE except for the fact that they had been ordered in 2017 following patent application in 2015.

    The journal article supporting the PCR “testing” standard was published a day after it was submitted for publication – IMPOSSIBLE when normally it would take many months.

    A global emergency was declared based on 44 cases of the flu among a typical one million annual cases in China – RIDICULOUS! And the vaccines were based on computer data from ONE person with no verification or ISOLATION to confirm what was causing the illness, virus, bacteria, fungus, or parasite?

    Interestingly, ALL the vaccine manufactures chose to use the most TOXIC element SPIKE PROTEIN in their jabs when normally individual companies would have different approaches to medications.

    Pfizer’s internal documents release by court order, 75 years earlier than regulatory agencies requested, show 1,291 “adverse events of special interest.”

    Call Guinness World Records for the gain of function most toxic bioweapon award likely to generate the most profits from drugs and treatments over the next decade of death. Already, data from around the world is showing up to 30% increase in all cause mortality among healthy 25 to 44 years olds.

    A glaring problem was early suppression by ignorant government officials and captured regulatory agencies of highly effective, approved medications – like Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine – recommended in published studies following the 2003 SARS “outbreak” that would have made the experimental gene modification shots completely unnecessary in the first place and have stopped the “pandemic” before it got started.

    All the studies with the mRNA technology for the last 20 years FAILED and resulted in the deaths of all the animals involved! So this was known to be a killer and completely unsuitable for human use – unless the goal is depopulation.

    Health authorities failed to do their jobs and elected officials failed to do their jobs and are all complicit in mass murder by government IMO by recommending, coercing and mandating this well known toxic technology upon a trusting and unsuspecting public.

    The only silver lining is the greed and corruption of the pharma companies distributing 90% saline placebo shots and only “dosage range finding” with 5 to 10%. So many people escaped the first two shots unharmed.

    Trudeau’s family foundation ownership of the private pharma company with patents on the nano-lipid technology in the shots creates an illegal conflict of interest when he was pre-ordering 10 shots for every person with no refund option even if they were never made or delivered. More theft of taxpayer funds.

    As we watch our high school and pro sports heroes have heart attacks on the field we’re told by the “experts” that it’s due to climate change. So we need to cut down some trees, bury CO2 plant food, and kill livestock to create a food shortage and that will change the temperature and save the planet. The horse hockey stinks.

    The shots were designed to create diminished mental capacity “prion disease” or mad cow “dementia” so welcome to the zombie apocalypse.

    Unless the man-made climate change geo-engineering chemtrail spraying is stopped the respiratory illnesses will continue. Clear blue skies are no longer allowed

      That was a well written comment which captured the majority of what we have witnessed over the last 4 years.
      Well done.

    • Ilona Boyce on December 21, 2023 at 6:53 pm

      Well done. For the first time, i had a glimmer of what might be behind “operation Warp Speed. I had heard that Trump had some military had switched out vials for saline ( Pascal’s interview with Iron Will). Do you think he wanted as many as he could vaccinated with saline so when he was overtaken, people would have already had their shots before the booster came in? Is that a pipe dream?
