AS LIFE expectancy drops in Canada, a government report claims ‘unspecified causes’ have become the fifth leading cause of death in the country after cancer, heart disease, Covid-19 and accidents.
According to Statistics Canada, in 2022 ‘unspecified causes’ overtook strokes, aneurysms, chronic bronchitis, emphysema, asthma, diabetes, influenza and pneumonia, chronic liver disease and cirrhosis, Alzheimer’s and suicide as causes of death.
Statistics Canada, also known as StatCan, released the report on November 27 in The Daily, the agency’s online news bulletin.
The report generated a slew of nearly identical headlines — provided by Canada’s national news service — in Canada’s leading newspapers along the lines of this one in the Toronto Sun: ‘Life expectancy for Canadians fell for third straight year in 2022, StatCan says’, followed by the subhead: ‘More people died of COVID-19 in 2022 than in any other year since the pandemic began, report says’.
Andre Picard, health columnist at the Globe and Mail in Toronto, Canada’s newspaper of record, called the life expectancy drop — to 81.3 years in 2022 from 82.3 years in 2019 — ‘a big deal’.
‘It’s only the second time this sharp a drop has happened in Canada in the past century,’ Picard said. ‘In fact, life expectancy has been climbing steadily for decades: 71 in 1960, 75 in 1980, 79 in 2000 and 82.3 in 2019.’
Covid-19 deaths in Canada decreased to 14,466 in 2021 from 16,313 in 2020, the report shows. Canada is on track for about 7,000 Covid-19 deaths in 2023, Picard said.
Covid-19 deaths can’t account for Canada’s 7.3 per cent increase in total deaths in 2022 compared with 2021, nor for the country’s 17 per cent increase in total deaths over the historic norm of 2019, nor the historic drop in life expectancy in Canada and worldwide, Picard said.
Like many mainstream journalists and public health officials examining the US drop in life expectancy, Picard blamed chronic diseases, drug overdoses, opioid deaths, smoking, unhealthy diets and ‘indifference’ for the decline in Canada. ‘There are virtually no mitigation measures like masking any more, and vaccination rates have fallen sharply,’ he wrote.
But Drs Pierre Kory and Peter McCullough told the Defender they believe the most important and startling fact contained in the report is the 300 per cent increase from 2019 to 2022 in ‘unspecified causes’ of death in Canada.
McCullough, a highly published cardiologist who developed a widely used early treatment protocol for Covid-19, said the dramatic rise in deaths from ‘unspecified causes’ in Canada represents a seismic and disturbing shift in Western medicine.
‘Prior to the pandemic, death in Western countries was well understood,’ McCullough said, ‘with 40 per cent due to known cardiovascular, 40 per cent due to terminal neoplastic disease [cancer] and 20 per cent due to other known causes such as homicide, suicide, drug overdoses and accidents.
‘Since the roll-out of the Covid-19 vaccines, we have witnessed unprecedented deaths without antecedent disease. A large autopsy series published by Hulscher et al found that 73.9 per cent of the deaths after Covid-19 vaccination were due to problems caused by the shots.’
McCullough cited the hundreds of studies examining post-vaccine, spike-protein-related injuries and deaths and the millions of deaths and injuries reported by citizens in the US and Europe to their governments following mRNA vaccination.
‘All deaths should be categorized according to the doses and dates of Covid-19 vaccination,’ McCullough said. ‘Unless proven otherwise, “unspecified death” should be attributed to a fatal Covid-19 vaccine injury syndrome.’
Kory, the former University of Wisconsin professor of medicine and president of the Front Line COVID-19 Critical Care Alliance, told the Defender the evidence is overwhelming that the Covid-19 mRNA shots caused more deaths and injuries across the Western world than any prior drug or vaccine in history.
‘The answer as to why “unspecified causes” are now a leading cause of death is plain and simple,’ Kory said. ‘That cause is the one medical intervention that the world’s governments and media have championed since the start [of the pandemic] . . . The mRNA platform technology is and has been a colossal failure in both efficacy and safety.’
Kory and journalist Mary Beth Pfeiffer on Tuesday published an opinion piece in The Hill calling on governments and public health officials to study and address the problem of a global historic rise in mortality thus far not recognized by officials and not reported by mainstream journalists.
On December 13, the essay was trending as the first or second most popular story on The Hill’s website, which claims 32.5million monthly unique visitors.
US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Robert Califf on November 30 published an extraordinary thread of posts on X (formerly Twitter) calling for a society-wide ‘all hands on deck’ approach to solve the problem of the ‘catastrophic’ decline in US life expectancy.
‘JAMA Internal Medicine published earlier this month that our overall life expectancy has dropped to 76 years, and remarkably, that male life expectancy in the US has dropped to 73 years,’ Califf wrote.
But Kory said the FDA commissioner’s post, ‘which hit on smoking, diet, chronic illness and healthcare, ignored the obvious: People are dying in abnormally high numbers even now and long since COVID waned. Yet public health agencies and medical societies are silent.’
The FDA and mainstream media are ignoring the fact that life insurers have been ‘sounding the alarm over these unexpected or excess deaths, which claimed 158,000 more Americans in the first nine months of 2023 than in the same period in 2019,’ Kory wrote. ‘That exceeds America’s combined losses from every war since Vietnam. Congress should urgently work with insurance experts to investigate this troubling trend.’
Amy Kelly, COO of DailyClout and the program director of the Pfizer Documents Analysis Project, said that for an autopsy to reach a proper diagnosis of an mRNA-vaccine-caused death, ‘histopathological examination of tissues from all over the body is necessary. Most of the time, even if an autopsy is performed, the histopathological examination of tissues is not.’ She cited an interview with Dr Arne Burkhardt, who describes the types of testing the coroners must perform but seldom do.
Dr Robert Chandler, a Los Angeles orthopedic surgeon who taught at the University of Southern California medical school, identified ‘entire new disease categories’ he calls ‘CoVax Diseases‘ in his study of Pfizer’s 450,000 pages of Covid-19 vaccine documents, documents the FDA was forced to release via a court order, Kelly said.
‘It makes sense that the unspecified causes of death have increased so much,’ Kelly said. ‘When a patient dies with either multiple diseases all at one time or with a previously unseen disease state, both of which happen with “CoVax Diseases” Dr Chandler has identified, I would imagine many doctors and/or coroners don’t know how to categorize those causes of death. That would lead to “cause unknown” categorization of deaths.’
According to Naomi Wolf, author of Facing the Beast: Courage, Faith and Resistance in a New Dark Age, ‘In the preindustrial world, people died mysteriously. But in the modern Western world, there are no mystery deaths. Every death has a death certificate which by law must identify a cause of death.
‘A minor rise in unattributed deaths is a problem that needs investigation. A major rise, such as you’ve identified, does not indicate a mass mystery to doctors and coroners, but rather it is evidence of a problem with state record-keeping — some bureaucratic malfeasance at a grand scale.’
