Cover-up allegations in 2023

In 2023, allegations of a cover-up are common. COVID-19, anti-vaxxers and the January 6 assault on Washington have added to the list. This has led to an increased freedom for deceptive practices. The wealthy 1% who are skillfully getting away with selfish behaviour are now enjoying even less scrutiny. As shown below, Chrystia Freeland and Mark Carney agree.

Meanwhile, whistleblowers working on behalf of the 99%, are subject to skepticism, an increased burden of proof, and a knee-jerk dismissal without any investigation.

For example, millions of Americans think, with not a shred of evidence, that the recent US election was rigged. Roughly 74 million citizens voted for a president who, as The Washington Post has documented, lies seven times a day.

There are likely few cover-up allegations with more proof than the one described here.

It is money-motivated and backed by a lucrative industry with $10 trillion in assets that can be used behind-the-scenes to maintain a large profit flow. The complicit, wealthy 1% of Canadians know that they could lose billions of dollars if the news of the CPP’s surplus became known nationally. This cover-up is probably costing you, and millions of other Canadians, $10,000 each, on average.

Probably the two highest ranking financial experts in Canada also believe our “democratic” system of politics and capitalism is rigged.

Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland agrees that the 1% are subtly using their wealth to greedily become even wealthier. In her book “Plutocrats: The Rise of the New Global Super-rich and the Fall of Everyone Else”, she wrote,

“In an age of super-wealth, we need to be constantly alert to efforts by the elite to get rich by using their political muscle to increase their share of the pre-existing pie, rather than by adding value to the economy and thus increasing the size of the pie overall.”

“The soaring inequality between the uber rich and everyone else has an impact on civic values, on crime rates, and on health”.

“the big danger though, is…as the people at the very top become ever richer, they have an even greater ability to tilt the rules of the game in their favour.”

Mark Carney was Governor of the Bank of Canada from 2008 to 2013 and governor of the Bank of England from 2013 to 2020. He recently published “Value(s): Building a better world for all”. The Economist summarized the book’s content, saying Mr. Carney

“argues that within profit-obsessed market economies self-interest crowds out other motivations, making the world a more selfish place – and potentially a less resilient and prosperous one, too.”

The London paper, The Guardian, stated Mr. Carney’s book alludes to

“twisted economics, an accompanying amoral culture, and degraded institutions whose lack of accountability and integrity accelerate the system’s dysfunction”. 

These are strong words from Ms. Freeland and Mr. Carney. This is about as far as we can expect them to go in their criticism because they are, or may soon be, in political positions. They choose to not be industry specific. However, this website can.

Canadians are somewhat satisfied with capitalism. Walmart, Costco, and Dollar Stores give us reasonable products at low cost. Then what are Ms. Freeland and Mr. Carney talking about?

Here you will find convincing evidence that there is an insidious cover-up being engineered by three powerful industries. The motivation is there because at least $170 billion of Canadians’ deserved money, and much more, is at stake.
