Canada is not the US's hat. The US is Canada's pants.

Been hearing about this one since 2020 at least. From what I've read it sounds like it's most likely not prion related, but people are suggesting environmental contamination from either the Irvings or Glyphosate

Maybe connected to the Havana Syndrome ? Obviously the CIA doesnt want us to know more about that.

"Province" of New Brunswick and other things dreamed up by the utterly deranged. New Brunswick is just three failsons in a trench coat.

One thing many people might not know is that the part of New Brunswick that seems so disproportionately affected is also one of the poorest. Little remaining industry, marginal fisheries, low-earning population that's also older and more trusting in the Irving newspaper monopoly's editorials. The only people who are determined to figure this disease out are either medical researchers and local working-poor residents, neither of which are politically influential. The wealthy in other parts of the province either want the cause buried to protect their wallets, or just plain do not give a shit about the poors.

Remember the Chinese doctor who told his colleagues to not fear monger when COVID started to pop up, and then they proceeded to fear monger, and then everyone praised the doctor as some sort of whistleblower dissident (and according to some, he was executed) but then he just simply reiterated later on that he still thinks people shouldn’t fear monger? The west isn’t gonna do that to this researcher lol

I feel like I've been hearing about this since 2017? When's the earliest report of it?
