Executive Director’s Message

Good morning, here we are again with another edition of the Canada Health Alliance newsletter. A few weeks ago, I warned you that we were considering reducing the frequency of this newsletter to bi-weekly instead of weekly. At the time, we felt that the volume of information sharing every week was possibly a bit overwhelming and that we should focus instead on more unique video content for our social media channels.

However, so many of you emailed me and told me how much you appreciated the weekly newsletter, especially the Wins of the Week, that I’m now thinking of maybe doing a short ‘quick’ newsletter every second week. This will keep us in touch every week, celebrate the weekly Wins together and it will give me a bit more time to work on the cause of improving the health and wellbeing of those around us.

Well today’s edition was supposed to be just that: Short and sharp! But, as you know, I am a writer and I love to connect with you, so today’s ‘abridged’ newsletter is pretty much the same as usual! Yet comes with a MASSIVE list of Wins which I hope you will appreciate.

These wins are very important to keep us hopeful, grounded and confident that positive change is coming and, for all the doom and gloom headlines, better days are just around the corner. It is the old story of the darkest hours being just before the dawn.

And that darkness is trying to manifest itself in every mainstream media headline out there at the moment. Over the last seven days we had the whiplash of the shocking Tumbler Ridge massacre, the ongoing slump of silver, the NIPAH crisis and even the third prophesy of Fatima which somehow now is supposed to be warning of genocide in Canada! Really? Do they really think we will fall for more of that sort of click-bait nonsense? Well, sadly, I suppose quite a few people will fall for it. But we need to make sure it is NOT us!

With collaboration, faith, hope and positivity we can create a better world and that starts with helping improve the health and wellbeing of those around us, where there is such a huge need right now.

On Tuesday evening, we had a very inspirational National Assembly call with medicinal herbalist, Chanchal Cabrera, who spoke a lot about how we could do this, and over the weekend I was privileged enough to attend the first Vital Health conference in Canada.

Listening to the various Vital Health presenters, I was inspired to hear how this Mexican brand has built itself on a solid foundation of Christian morality, traditional family values and – as with us at Canada Health Alliance – a complete dedication to improving the health and wellbeing of as many people as they possibly can here in Canada and around the world.

It illustrated to me the importance of collaboration and how, when we look for them, we can find like-minded allies, who are also wanting to change the world and improve the health (and wealth!) of those in need, and the truth is, right now, at least to some extent, we are all ‘in need.’

Thank you.
Sincerely,

Alan Brough

CHA Executive Director – alan.brough@canadahealthalliance.org

P.S.: If you would like to find out more about Vital Health and their mission and vision send me a quick email.

Quote of the Week

“My dad told me when I was a kid, people in authority lie. 
And the government lies all the time. 
And it lied to us about the dietary guidelines for 50 years. 
It lies about everything.”

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., US Secretary of Health and Human Services

Wins of the Week

As noted above, my original thought for this newsletter was to just make it a celebration of Wins, seeing that they are so popular, so here is, I think, our longest list of Wins of the Week ever, which proves we really are winning!
Enjoy…

1. On Wednesday, the US House of Representatives passed a resolution seeking to end President Donald Trump’s tariffs on Canada. While Trump will most likely veto the Bill, especially given his frustration with Carney’s flirtation with China, it is a symbolic victory for both Canada and Trump’s Democratic opponents.

2. After a one-year stand-off and all the final trauma of the CFIA slaughtering the 300 ostriches at the Universal Ostrich Farm in BC towards the end of last year, it turns out that this excessive assault didn’t follow the necessary pre-determined procedure, so has been ruled invalid! As Connie Shields reports, “At the exact moment farmers across Canada are protesting CFIA expansion, a federal tribunal has quietly ruled that CFIA failed to properly establish a violation against the BC ostrich farm, raising serious questions about enforcement practices nationwide.” The Canada Agricultural Review Tribunal found that CFIA failed to establish that the quarantine notice was properly served in accordance with the statutory requirements of the Act. That finding matters because a quarantine order is not merely informational. It is the legal foundation upon which extraordinary enforcement powers rest. Without proper service, there can be no lawful expectation of compliance, and no lawful penalty for non-compliance. As a result, the violation could not stand. So, once again, just like the enacting of Emergency Powers in 2022, the Federal authorities just bludgeoned their way into the situation squashing any dissension in an intimidating and demoralizing show of force. The question we now ask is how will them compensate the Universal Ostrich Farm for their excesses, trauma and destruction of property? Considering that Justin Trudeau willingly paid “self-confessed terrorist” Omar Khadr $10.5 million in compensation, Universal Ostrich Farm should, by rights, get even more, especially as unlike Khadr, they didn’t kill anyone. I would encourage you to read Connie’s latest – and exceptionally well articulated – substack on this at: https://unlockalberta.substack.com/p/regulatory-capture-101-universal

3. Recently, the University of Alberta announced that it will be moving away from unfair DEI race-based hiring programs. This is obviously great news. But, according to Clayton DeMaine’s report in the Counter Signal, this is too great for Ottawa, as a University of Ottawa professor is now threatening the University of Alberta with a Federal Court lawsuit, calling for the university to be defunded because it dared to step back from DEI hiring practices. There are two potential wins here, firstly the bold move by the University of Alberta, and secondly how the illogical tantrum by the University of Ottawa just further discredits them and their wokism. You can read the full story at: https://www.thecountersignal.com/p/ottawa-professor-threatens-to-sue

4. Conservative MP Mike Dawson said he is rejecting a 4.2% pay raise MPs are set to receive in April, citing the high cost of living that “everyday Canadians are struggling” with. “At a time when everyday Canadians are struggling to keep up with the rising cost of living, I cannot in good conscience accept the pay increase of nearly $10,000 which every Member of Parliament is set to receive,” Dawson, who represents the Miramichi—Grand Lake riding in New Brunswick, wrote on February 10. It is so good to see that we still have some honest politicians who are concerned about the plight of ordinary Canadians. Thank you, Mike Dawson for being the first MP to stand up and set an example for the rest of them.

5. On January 30, 2026, NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya delivered what may become the most consequential address in the modern history of federally funded biomedical research. Bhattacharya highlighted NIH’s Real-World Data Platform, which is designed to give independent researchers privacy-preserving access to federal health datasets. The project begins with autism, but Bhattacharya has signaled a broader scope: chronic disease, immunology, behavioural health, and eventually, vaccine injury. In the MAHA roundtable, he stated plainly that the NIH must stop neglecting serious investigation into vaccine safety and long-term effects. That framing, absent from official NIH releases, introduces the possibility of new funding streams for questions long relegated to the edges of acceptable discourse. If executed, this may mark the most significant shift in post-market safety surveillance since the creation of VAERS.

6. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) in the United States announced earlier this week that it is studying ivermectin as a potential cancer treatment. While this vindicates ivermectin-advocate, Dr. William Makis from Alberta, it has panicked career scientists, who are not quite so keen on having real scientific research threaten their long-established belief system. The NCI is testing Ivermectin in lab and animal models after patient interest and online reports have highlighted its potential to trigger cancer cell death and slow tumour growth. In addition to this, Florida’s $60 million Cancer Innovation Fund, backed by Florida’s Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo, will also explore repurposed drugs like Ivermectin, prioritizing quick studies on generics. And once again, yet another ‘conspiracy theory’ slowly and quietly fades away under the spotlight of real science, confirming that there was something to all the Ivermectin hype after all. Hopefully those who lambasted it as just ‘horse-paste’ will have the courage to admit they were wrong, especially once the research is completed and the results are made public.

7. The American Medical Association is teaming up with the Vaccine Integrity Project to conduct its own review of vaccine safety and efficacy, claiming that advisers to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are no longer doing a good enough job. The groups said Wednesday that the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) “has now effectively collapsed.”

8. In early February, the FDA took one of the harshest steps it could take on Moderna’s mRNA flu shot biologics license application. They rejected it because, as the FDA’s vaccines and biologics chief Vinay Prasad said in the notification letter, the application does not “contain a trial adequate and well-controlled…” How this will be resolved I am not sure, but it does show Big Pharma vaccine manufacturer’s that the Trump Administration and the new FDA under Kennedy are serious about ensuring proper research and trials to prove the safety and efficacy of any new vaccines looking for FDA approval.

9. In a key win for freedom of speech (at least for Americans) in a recent certified administrative record filed in the Southern District of New York, the United States Department of State has formally characterized the British Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH)’s CEO Imran Ahmed as “a key collaborator with the Biden administration on weaponizing the national security bureaucracy to censor US citizens and pressure US companies into censoring.” Remarkably, this is the government’s own finding—entered into the federal record, certified under penalty of perjury, and signed personally by the Secretary of State. It goes on to detail how the State Department and the CCDH collaborated on several organizational priorities, including silencing the dirty dozen, “killing Musk’s Twitter” and “triggering EU and UK regulatory action.” Fortunately the Trump Administration have had the courage to reveal this, reverse the damage that has been done and better protect basic-freedoms in the future.

10. The State of New Hampshire in the US is also doing all they can to help improve freedom of speech and freedom of choice, especially in the field of healthcare by Bills being introduced in New Hampshire: 1) Bill HB1811, No Mandates – ending school and daycare mandates; 2) Bill HB1378, requiring parents have access to a child’s electronic medical records; 3) Bill HB1219, ending foster family vaccine requirements; 4) Bill HB1719, Hep B vaccine repeal; 5) Bill HB1671, requiring a withholding of Medicaid payments to medical facilities who don’t honour medical and religious exemptions for employees and students; 6) Bill HB1117, free speech in medicine; 7) Bill HB1584, requiring that all advertisements and notifications of vaccine requirements include notification of exemptions. Thanks to Ted for this one.

11. A few weeks ago we saw this unexpected drop of more than three million documents from the ‘Epstein Files.’ Firstly it makes we wonder just how big Pam Bondi’s desk is if she has had it “on her desk” for such a long time! Secondly, whenever there is a massive drop of this size there are always little gems hidden within it which were included either by mistake, or which weren’t redacted properly given the unexpected nature of the release. Now that people have had the time to comb through this stack, these interesting tidbits are coming to light… One  such anomaly that dntv.com are reporting on is that the first draft of the statement on Jeffrey Epstein’s death was dated August 9, 2019, the day BEFORE he was ‘found’ dead in his jail cell! As more of these ‘gems’ come to light and can’t be fully explained away as ‘typo’s’ or ‘auto-correct,’ so more and more people will start to question everything, and that is why we need to flush out all the corruption that has permeated so much of the world around us.

12. According to Ty and Charlene Bollenger from ‘The Truth About Cancer’: “The release of Jeffrey Epstein’s files has done far more than expose a network of elite pedophilia and blackmail—it has vindicated truth-tellers like us and countless others who were smeared, censored, de-platformed, and persecuted for warning about the sinister agendas of the globalist elite. The documents reveal shocking connections between Epstein, Bill Gates, pandemic planning, and the systematic suppression of anyone who dared to connect the dots. We weren’t crazy. We were just early. And they hated us for it.” Back in 2015, Gates and Epstein exchanged emails about “preparing for pandemics” and strategies to “involve the WHO.” In one particular email Gates wrote: “I hope we can pull this off.” This eerily foreshadowed the 2019 Event 201 simulation—a pandemic exercise hosted by the Gates Foundation, Johns Hopkins, and the World Economic Forum that just happened to model a global coronavirus outbreak… just months before COVID-19 ”mysteriously” emerged in Wuhan. Funny how that works, isn’t it? The win here is that once again, we were right about the origin of Covid, and hopefully next time people will think before they are told to panic.

13. To Europe now… As part of the ongoing fall-out from the above Epstein ‘document dump’, Keir Starmer’s future as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom is in the balance. This comes after a crisis over the appointment of Peter Mandelson as ambassador to Washington claimed a couple of the UK prime minister’s closest aides last weekend. The fact that Starmer is currently the most unpopular UK Prime Minister on record is no doubt adding to the growing demands for him to resign. Interestingly, these demands for his head are coming from not just the people of Britain, but even from many within his own Labour Party. Currently, the rumours are that he will not survive much beyond this weekend, and if that happens we could well see Nigel Farage becoming the new British PM before the end of the year. That will bring a monumental shift in the balance of power across Europe, to the detriment of the globalists in Brussels and Bern.

14. There is a dramatic political shift happening in Portugal where, in the Presidential election held last weekend, the right-leaning anti-immigration and anti-EU Chega party won a third of all votes. According to the leader of Chega, “We did not win, but are on the path to victory,” and, considering the shaky coalition that blocked Chega from winning in this last election, their assumption of power might be sooner than many people realize. This is exactly how the centrist and leftist parties in France were able to block Marine La Penn’s victory last year. Yet, because of the diverse political views within the coalition, the new French government was destined to fail and collapse shortly thereafter. I personally anticipate the same thing will happen in Portugal and within a year or two, as the political pendulum turns, I think we might see a Chega-led government in Lisbon

15. Latvia has sent a clear message to the EU: Foreign Minister Baiba Braže stated that Latvia will not accept any more migrants under the highly unpopular EU migration pact and that they will not pay any fines. This mirrors Hungary’s stance and adds to the challenges faced by the EU Federal parliament in Brussels who are struggling to hold the political bloc together in the face of both Russian and American pressure.

16. There has also been a massive conservative victory in Japan where Sanae Takaichi made a risky gamble to call a snap election – and is now heading up the strongest majority of any Japanese government in more than 70 years! Reporting on this, CNN (who are not fans of the right), said, “She’s one of the world’s most powerful conservative leaders – and she just won again! In the four months since becoming leader, she has skyrocketed in popularity, galvanized typically-disengaged young voters, and given a fresh new face to the country’s political landscape. This mass appeal translated to a landslide victory on Sunday, securing Takaichi’s ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) a historic two-thirds supermajority in the lower house of parliament – the first time a single party has done so since World War Two.” This will help contain China, and gives the West a stronger ally in the region as both sides position themselves around the flash-point of Taiwan.

Health Canada Has Admitted That Legalizing Hard Drugs Was a Failed Experiment That “Compounded Local Social Crises.”

According to a report by Anthony Murdoch in Life Site News, Canada’s Health Department has admitted that the Trudeau-era trial of allowing hard drug consumption was a disaster and led to a complete breakdown of public order in some locations.
British Columbia was particularly hard hit with some parts of downtown Vancouver including school playgrounds and hospitals becoming unsafe ‘no go’ areas. In response, several municipalities and Indigenous communities have declared states of emergency, calling for action from all orders of government.
The three-year pilot legalizing small quantities of hard drugs such as crack, regular cocaine, and heroin ended January 31, 2025 and will not be renewed.
Records show that the Liberal government has spent approximately $820 million from 2017 to 2022 on its Canadian Drugs and Substances Strategy. However, the Department of Health admitted, right back in a 2023 report that the Liberals’ drug program only had “minimal” results, was a failure and “didn’t work.”
Once again, the lesson for us should be not to allow policies and ‘experiments’ that impact public health and wellbeing when they are so obviously flawed. While most of us thought at the time that it was a reckless policy, we obviously did not make our voices heard sufficiently, and we must remember that next time.
Which is why it is so important that we stop the governments war on natural health products and support Bill C 223 to protect our access to them, as detailed below…

Support Bill C-224 To Save Our Supplements

Bill C-224 is scheduled to resume second reading on February 24. This is a critical moment for supporters of fair, evidence-based regulation of natural health products.
The days leading up to this vote will play a decisive role in determining whether the bill advances or stalls. For most private members’ bills, second reading represents the final realistic opportunity to secure momentum in this Parliamentary vote. After second reading ends, the House might vote immediately!
We are asking all supporters to return to the Bill C-224 action page on the NHPPA website at: https://nhppa.org/bill224/  and send letters again, even if you have already participated. Re-engaging at this stage is not redundant—it is how momentum is maintained and visibility is reinforced as Parliament prepares for debate.
If Bill C-224 succeeds at second reading, it will move to committee review and further parliamentary consideration. If it does not, this phase of the legislative process will likely come to an end. So, it’s time to intensify our efforts and let our legislators know what is really important to us.
With the February 24 deadline approaching, we also encourage readers to go beyond online forms by contacting your MPs directly through phone calls, physical letters, and personal messages (to find out how, visit: https://nhppa.org/bill224/#find-my-mp). Sustained public pressure works, and your engagement now will shape what comes next in this debate what will impact us all, either positively (if Bill C-224 is passed) or negatively if it fails.

The Steps You Need To Take To Avoid Alzheimer’s & Protect Your Metabolism and Cognition

Counting steps has become all the rage, and a few years ago everyone had their Fitbits or smart-watches counting and calculating their daily number of steps and what that meant. Although the fashionability of it all seems to have died down a bit now, we all know that walking is a great aerobic exercise that is clearly good for us, and it comes without the high impact of running, especially on older joints.
But the key questions remains, how many steps should YOU take for YOUR own needs and condition? It is definitely not a ‘one size fits all’ and it all depends on your age and your overall health profile. However, it does seem bigger is not always better when it comes to distance walked, and the benefits of getting it right are not just an improvement in physical fitness and mobility, but there are also great psychological and brain health benefits, especially if you are able to walk in nature.
According to Dr. Joseph Mercola, walking 5,000 to 7,500 steps a day is optimal, especially for brain functionality as it slows the buildup of tau, the brain protein linked to Alzheimer’s-related decline. By reducing tau it helps you stay sharper for years longer. In addition, it has been found that older adults with elevated amyloid — a key early Alzheimer’s marker — preserved memory and daily function far better when they consistently reached a moderate step range at around 6,000 steps per day. Even small increases in movement, such as moving from under 3,000 steps to 3,500 to 5,000 per day, delivered meaningful cognitive benefits without requiring intense exercise.
And yes, you can over do it. According to research, high intensity training can push healthy adults into metabolic dysfunction, reducing mitochondrial energy production by about 40% and disrupting blood sugar stability. So, the caution is not to be extreme, but instead to be consistent and slowly increase your number of steps over time to find your personal ‘sweet spot.’ That is where you are getting enough low-impact movement to avoid inactivity without pushing into extreme training. If you can achieve this on a daily basis it will protect both long-term brain health and your daily metabolic balance.

This article uses key highlights from a detailed analysis on walking and brain health by Dr. Joseph Mercola which he published earlier this week. You can read the full original at: https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2026/02/10/optimal-exercise-brain-health-metabolism.aspx   We would also recommend subscribing to Dr. Mercola’s excellent substack which includes daily reports and updates.

Microwave Cooked Food Is Nutritionally Deficient “Nuclear Waste”

Did you ever wonder what microwaves do to water, food and your body? Russian researchers have found decreased nutritional value, cancer-making compounds and brain-damaging radiolytics in virtually all microwave-prepared foods.
Eating microwave-prepared meals can also cause loss of memory, reduced concentration, emotional instability and a decline in intelligence, according to the research. The Russian scientists also found decreased nutritional value – or significant dimming of their ‘vital energy field’ – in up to 90 percent of all microwave-prepared foods.
In addition, the B complex, C and E vitamins linked with stress-reduction and the prevention of cancer and heart disease, as well as the essential trace minerals needed for optimum brain and body functioning, were all rendered useless by microwaves, even at short cooking durations. Microwave-cooked food is basically reduced to the nutritional equivalent of cardboard. If you don’t want to develop nutrient deficiencies, you may be better off throwing this appliance out of your kitchen. The radiation has been found to accumulate in the kitchen furniture, becoming a constant source of radiation in itself.
Microwave usage in the preparation of food has been found to lead to lymphatic disorders and an inability to protect the body against certain cancers. The research found increased rates of cancer cell formation in the blood of people eating microwave-cooked meals. The Russians also reported increased rates of stomach and intestinal cancers, as well as digestive and excretive disorders, plus a higher percentage of cell tumours, including sarcoma.
Microwaves rip apart the molecular bonds that make food ‘food’. Microwave ovens hurl high-frequency microwaves that boil the moisture within food and its packaging by whipsawing water molecules dizzyingly back-and-forth at more than a billion reversals per second. This frantic friction fractures food molecules, rearranging their chemical composition into weird new configurations unrecognizable as food by human bodies. By destroying the molecular structures of food, the body cannot help but turn the food into waste, but not harmless waste, rather, ‘nuclear waste’.
Other side effects of microwave use, aside from making food useless and ‘wasteful’, include high blood pressure, migraine, dizziness, stomach pain, anxiety, hair loss, appendicitis, cataracts, reproductive disorders, adrenal exhaustion, heart disease, memory loss, attention disorders, increased crankiness, depression, disconnected thoughts, sleep disturbance and brain damage.
Eating microwave-damaged foods can lead to a considerable stress response in the body, and thereby, alter the blood chemistry. Eating organic vegetables zapped by microwaves will send your cholesterol soaring. According to Swiss scientist Hertel, “Blood cholesterol levels are less influenced by cholesterol content of the food than by stress factors.”
The Russian government had banned microwave ovens for over 50 years, but they were recently reintroduced to the Russian market (for ‘economic’ reasons). Microwave ovens have taken over the cooking chores in nine out of ten American homes, and American and Chinese microwave manufacturers hope that the same will now happen in Russia.
Reporting for the Forensic Research Document of AREC Research, William P. Kopp now states: “The effects of microwaved food byproducts are long-term, permanent within the human body. Minerals, vitamins, and nutrients of all microwaved food is reduced or altered so that the human body gets little or no benefit, or the human body absorbs altered compounds that cannot be broken down.”
In a classical experiment 2000 cats were given only food and water that were previously placed in the microwave oven, even for just one minute. The foods selected were the most nutritious and natural ones available. Within six weeks, all cats mysteriously died. While investigating the surprising result of the test, it was discovered that, although the cats looked well fed, the cells in their bodies virtually contained no trace of nutrient-components. The cats literally starved to death, despite all the nutritious foods. Microwaves turned their food into deadly poisons.
Seeing the unprecedented sickness epidemic in the US and other countries that largely rely on microwaves to cook food, it may be wise if we followed the example of some countries where healthy cooking methods are still mainstream, such as Russia, Greece, Italy and France, as well as most developing countries.

Beating Heart Disease:

5 Powerful Pillars to Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease

by Diamond Fernandes

          Heart disease is the number one cause of death and hospitalization in developed countries, and yet it is largely preventable. Think about that for a moment. How is that possible?

What is required is good information. Did you know that more than half of those suffering from cardiovascular disease have cholesterol in the normal range? Would it surprise you to learn that the majority of cardiovascular events are attributed to blockages of less than fifty percent? Your arteries are a muscle not a pipe, therefore beating heart disease takes work, but it can be done.

Diamond Fernandes is an authority on heart health, and in this book, he shares how you can navigate heart disease along with his five powerful pillars to preventing and reversing heart disease.

Calgary native Diamond Fernandes has been helping people prevent and reverse heart disease since the late nineties. After his father had a heart attack, he started his career with Total Cardiology Rehabilitation in Calgary, where he now runs Heart Fit Clinic. This is a unique cardiac rehabilitation and heart attack and stroke prevention clinic, helping people prevent cardiovascular events through cardiac assessments, exercise, education and external counterpulsation therapy (ECP).
