Canada wants to include DEI measures in WHO pandemic treaty

Instead of outright rejecting the World Health Organization's (WHO) already controversial global pandemic treaty, the Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) wants to amend it to include diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies promoting "marginalized" groups. "Comprehensive prevention strategies, including surveillance practices and addressing challenges for marginalized communities are essential for effective pandemic prevention," the July PHAC summary report indicated. "Data ownership, privacy, inclusivity, race-based data and cultural sensitivity are important issues which could be given greater consideration." According to the report, data collection can be a challenge, especially when compounded by strained relationships between Indigenous people and the health system, marked by trust deficits and ingrained power differentials. PHAC discussed Canada's participation in the WHO global pandemic treaty, also known as the Pandemic Accord. This agreement would grant WHO a "superpower" over Canada and other countries when another "pandemic" or other so-called emergencies occur again. Moreover, Canada's public health authority pushed for measures to counteract "misinformation." "Countering misinformation and disinformation is critical to pandemic response efforts, as seen by its impact on vaccination and immunization rates around the world," the report said. "Efforts should be made to hold social media platforms accountable for the content they host. However, it is imperative to address misinformation in a manner that respects freedom of speech and expression," it continued. However, critics of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau pointed out that it would be unlikely for this to work to protect stances that go against globalist rhetoric, citing how Trudeau reacted to the 2022 Freedom Convoy. Hundreds of vehicles formed convoys from several points and traversed Canadian provinces before converging in Ottawa on Jan. 29 of that year to protest against the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) vaccine mandates and restrictions. Participants were violently dealt with by local law enforcement. It did not stop there as bank accounts of Canadians who donated to the protest were frozen afterward. Conservative members of parliament (MPs) also cast their opinions on the possible implications of these suggested measures to be added to the accord. MP Colin Carrie has warned that the treaty could institutionalize freedom-throttling COVID-19 "pandemic mistakes. Meanwhile, MP Leslyn Lewis has repeatedly been warning that the new International Health Regulations in the treaty will compromise Canada's sovereignty as it gives WHO great power over Canadians. In line with this, Lewis endorsed a petition demanding Trudeau's regime to immediately withdraw from the United Nations and its WHO subgroup as these globalist organizations undermine the national "sovereignty" and "personal autonomy" of citizens.

Pandemic treaty stumbling blocks revealed

The finalization of the agreement did not meet its deadline back in May after two years of negotiation among 194 WHO member states. According to the accord, the aim was to set guidelines for how the member countries might stop future pandemics and better share resources. But experts warned there were virtually no consequences for countries that don't comply. The co-chairs of the drafting process didn't specify what caused the reason why they had not come up with the final paper. However, diplomats said that differences remained in the sharing of information about pathogens that emerge as well as the technologies to fight them. As per the latest draft, WHO would get 20 percent of the production of pandemic-related products like tests, treatments and vaccines. It also urges countries to disclose their deals with private companies. This is the main reason why President Joe Biden did not sign off the treaty. He received pressure from Republican senators who argued that the treaty focused on issues like "shredding intellectual property rights" and "supercharging the WHO." (Related: Every GOP senator just signed a letter to Biden telling him to WITHDRAW from the WHO pandemic treaty.) Meanwhile, the United Kingdom's Department of Health and Social Care stated that it would only agree to an accord if it adhered to British national interest and sovereignty.
