Why don't doctors tell you?
Recommendations as the health care system falls apart - also link to NHPPA petition
Looking for an image to start this post, I found this 5 year old episode of This Hour has 22 Minutes playing on the attitudes of the medical profession with regards to their colleagues in naturopathic medicine. Enjoy… or not!!
Making plain what is right in front of our noses - we have LOTS of teaching to do!!!

→ So, 20 years ago, students in the University of Alberta’s pre-med program (i.e. students in a Bachelor of Science program seeking to continue with further studies in a medical profession) learned all about the body’s physiology. Imagine the surprise of a practising physiotherapist upon looking over the course content being studied in a current pre-med program by a young relative: “He is getting nothing but pharma propaganda - not much at all about how the body is supposed to work. Nothing like what I got when I took pre-med years ago.”
→ Now, as Alberta looks to expand the role of naturopaths, a veritable firestorm of outrage is spreading among the same voices in the “twittersphere” (Or X-Space?) who wanted us all to “roll up our sleeves” and take the Covid-19 shot.
Here are a few of the responses I have been trying to fit in to the Twitter/X word count limit:
To Dr. Stea’s Trojan Horse: Fix the labels, change "Alternative Medicine" to "BigPharma's Covid-19 vaccines" and then the cartoon would be PERFECT. You and others like #ScienceUpFirst would be the Grifters. All else stays the same! See: https://nationalcitizensinquiry.ca/witness/rodney-palmer-ottawa/…

To Timothy Caulfield’s comment shared above
Drop the outrage! Each speciality has its place. The MORE health trained folks in the system the better. Did you know that U of A pre-med students learn more about Pharma than about Physiology? Check into the curriculum given by your colleagues to look for the Money Trail!! @UofA

In response to a similar post by David Gorski MD, PhD: Why is it that pro-vax voices cannot take the time to read up on the peer-reviewed literature on these therapeutics before spewing off? Here is just one. Why not use your strong platforms to HELP HEALTHCARE for once?

Slightly off topic, but when Timothy Caulfield posted about “conspiracy theories” I responded:
When we have proof that those who don't mean us well will pretend that their actions are "for our own good" that's a conspiracy, not a theory. Look at the conspiracies folks are soon to be charged with: https://bitchute.com/video/MMXfRHgFybqK/… Your efforts to silence others aid this.

One thing I started doing is pointing the NAY SAYERS at the Glossary of the organization behind the 2 naturopathic colleges in Canada telling them to check which of these services their company health care plans covered. IF their health care provider believes the services are worth covering, why should they themselves be dismissing such services out of hand? See
https://aanmc.org/glossary-alternative-medicine/
Unfortunately I have also pointed out to someone that sadly, Canada’s naturopathic colleges caved in to the vax mandate and so on that front there would be no reason for these pro-vaxxers to be so critical of colleges that shared their view on the so-called need for this measure!!! Did you know that students wanting to learn about how to preserve the body’s natural health were forced to drop out of naturopathic school if they refused to let their bodies be potentially harmed by the lipid nanoparticle/mRNA/PEG/spike protein toxin contained in, or engendered by, the Covid-19 vaccines?
Currently, the massive list of recommendations put forth by the commissioners of the National Citizens’ Inquiry is not yet as searchable as desired (kudos to the massive efforts of the volunteers who continue working on streamlining it!)
So far, I see the following:
So as we all consider how to protect and sustain the most precious asset we have (our health) and as we communicate with those who wish to engage in turf wars in favour of Pills, Injections, and other Pharma products, when we remind them of non-pharma options… stuff our great grandparents used to know and do BEFORE BigPharma arose to “care for our every need” just know that we are fulfilling some of the public education recommendations of the NCI!!
Please note: I am not saying that all pills or injections are bad.. and have seen firsthand how effective many are - but it has become clear that we have gone overboard turning our trust too far in the direction of “The (corporate) Science” and its $$making industry.
