Vaccinations and Canadian Indians - By Candice Cooper

Vaccines and Canadian Indians - Candice Cooper

In Protest Over Canadian Government Vaccine Policy Letter of Resignation Candace Cooper, Nutrition Counselor Head Start Email: slavenomore@excite.com Here's Candace's resignation from the health agency she worked for. Subject: First Nations in the dark vaccines / Resignation letter Sent: 09/01/1920 08:03 Received: 07/01/2001 18:12 From: candace cooper, Slavenomore@excite.com To: janclarke@clear.net.nz

Also to the Sto: Lo Nation And Media (see cc list at end of letter) I, Candace Cooper regretfully have to resign from my position because I have far too much respect for myself, and dignity and do not deserve this treatment. I believe that I have been wrongly accused of not performing my duties. It greatly saddens me when people turn on you and say things that are not true, such as I do not care about these families and am not interested in the culture. All of which are false because if you asked the families I know they would say the opposite and this position was not about money but to give back what I have learned over the years to make a difference in their lives and be a positive influence through education and empowering these people to ask questions, to think for themselves and take responsibility for their lives. I strongly hold the opinion that nutrition should be at the top of the list for these families and I mean whole, organic, traditional foods. What I truly see as being a sore spot for Xyolhemeylh is that I am not a dietician, yet I have 10 years experience with nutrition, a certificate in applied nutrition, working on my R.N.C, cooking for my family how could this not be enough. I know what dieticians learn I have spoke to them and know they are taught from the food industry (which is not healthy) and they do not learn about whole foods, organics, nutritional supplements, herbs, and different cultures eating The list is endless. With my background knowledge I have learned about other alternative healing modalities like Chinese Medicine, Ayruvedic Medicine, Homeopathic Medicine, and Native Medicine. All of which have been suppressed in this country for far too long and in some cases taken completely away. Health includes healing the body with these alternative methods and causing no harm to the body (how do vaccines affect already weakened immune systems?) So this brings me to the main reason that I believe I am being silenced and pressured is the suppressed truth about vaccines (Health Canada) wants me to shut up but I will not. The level at which these families know nothing about the side effects really upsets me deeply. After speaking with my supervisor who shared some very disturbing news I asked what to do she suggested that these families deserved to have a choice, so at that point I gave out info to a few families only to be told a few weeks later that I should stop what I am doing or I will lose my job to which I replied that if I lost my job at least I would know in my heart I had done the right thing I was also told not to discuss this with Ida John because she is Sto:Lo this frightened me and of course I spoke with Ida John and she was upset that they did not want her people to know the truth. I felt these families deserve to know the truth and make up their own minds whether or not to vaccinate. The supervisor told me to stop giving out information and pass on the information to her that I gave to some families she said she would pass on to the nursing staff to get educated, but months passed and no mention of it came up. But I quickly realized that vaccines are the main job of the nurses. I seen an awful paper with each family along with births, deaths and a long list of side effects from vaccines that these nurses have to fill out monthly that was saddening and shocking. If the nurses do not do this they would not have jobs because you see M.S.B (Medical Services Branch) is run by Health Canada who pays the nurses and someone has to administer the vaccines. A couple of months later a meeting with the nurses, supervisors, Ida John and myself was called to discuss the fact that some parents from the East were questioning the vaccines and this had the nurse upset because hey they were not being good little sheep and they were asking questions. The meeting lasted three hours and we were gifted to hear Ida John speak on behalf of her people as she was the only native person in the meeting and she said she felt outnumbered. It was decided that parents should have a choice. I suggested that we all go see Dr. Horowitz in Sept. and Dr. Vera Sheibner from Australia in Oct. and I later gave papers to all the C.H.N./C.H.Rs but again received no response. After receiving the poster for Dr. Sheibner I was shocked at the response from my supervisor who said that this info was not to be made public and was this mandatory the nurses go and I said no it is their choice but would be great for them to hear a professional. He held the poster and said it was propaganda yet after last meeting he seemed happy about upcoming talk and asked me whom we should invite so therefore I was disappointed to hear this.

I know the powers that be and there is so much information out today from doctors, scientists and other experts who are really looking at the efficacy of all the vaccines that we innocently receive thinking they are good because a doctor, or nurse has recommended them. I feel we cant hide from the facts so with this letter I am including a list different vaccine groups. I want this to be clearly known that none of this is in any way to speak badly about the Sto: Lo First Nation. I am honored to be part of one Sto: Lo family where I have been shown so much love and respect that I will always be indebted to this family. I prayed before I even knew about the position that I would love to work with First Nations people as I am First Nation myself (Cree). So I was thrilled when I got the chance to personally work with and get to learn about the culture and be invited to ceremonies. I see the people trying very hard to get back to the traditional ways and bring the language back. One cultural advisor shared we need to bridge the gap between the Sto:Lo people and other cultures to bring us together and I have been trying to do that myself. Creator gave me the gift of getting to know some really warm, funny and gentle people especially the children who will always have a place in my heart. So I must move on but will not stop speaking the TRUTH I will always be a voice for the people.

Everyone: Please forward widely, especially to First Nations and Aboriginal groups world wide and to the media.

IAHF List:

The article below documents genocide via vaccination against First Nations aboriginal people in Canada who are not being told the truth about the immense dangers of vaccination, which is being forced upon them. Candace Hill was put in a "quit or be fired" situation due to her efforts to expose the truth. She quit. Despite warnings not to go public with this information, Hill has generated this article, and has appeared on many radio shows to expose this genocide. She also continues to help the Sto:lo and other First Nations people, as well as aboriginal people world wide. IAHF has received reports similar to this from numerous other countries, including Australia, S.America and Africa where aboriginal people are being genocidally expunged via a vaccinations as well. This is part of a global ruling elite Eugenics policy that must be further exposed and halted.

Candace Hill is a Cree First Nations woman living in British Columbia Canada where she runs "Walking in Balance" , a wholistic nutrition practice and is available for private consultation and interviews. Hill is a member of a group of aboriginal women from Canada who travel world wide to foster healing unity amongst aboriginal people, and all people. Candace can be reached at slavenomore@excite.com

Sto:Lo First Nations in the Dark about Vaccines !! by Candace Hill, Surrey, BC Canada slavenomore@excite.com

My story began six months ago as the first Wholistic Nutrition Counsellor for the Aboriginal Head Start program under Xyolhemeylh Health and Family services, in Mission and Chilliwack B.C Canada to educate the Sto:Lo First Nations people. The goal of this program is to help parents in a very positve, way empowering them to become the first teachers to their children. However the shocking truth is that the Xyolhemeylh Health and Family services program is in fact doing the opposite, to the point where it is actually engaging in GENOCIDE through the administration of highly dangerous vaccines,along with calculated withholding of information necessary for families to be able to make their own choices regarding whether or not to vaccinate their children. I don't make this accusation lightly.

I was blessed with the opportunity to work with families who have taught me so much.Yet it saddened me to see what little they knew about good nutrition,herbs, vitamins /minerals and other alternative medicines.

It was very apparent from the beginning that something was not right with the Xyolhemeylh Health and Family services definition of what constitutes good health. This programs health means drugs, vaccines, nix(pesticide) and an enviroment which selectively witholds information necessary for these people to properly educate themselves and in turn empower themselves with improved health, They simply are not taught about prevention and how to keep their immune systems strong. I define good health to using whole foods, organics, natural medicines and learning about the connection between body,mind and spirit and allowing the body to heal itself using whole foods,organics,natural medicines.

I observed too much secrecy in the program especially regarding vaccines.For the Sto:Lo families vaccines seem to be mandatory. No information was ever provided allowing them to make a choice despite the reported dangers. The nurses are told to make the families feel like bad parents if they do not vaccinate. The truth regarding the dangers of vaccines was intentionally suppressed, along with basic information about health and prevention. I provided a few families with some information: "Side effects from vaccines maybe due to the bacterial toxin or virus component of the vaccine, or to the chemicals used in the preparation and preserving of the solution. These chemicals include mercury, formaldehyde, aluminum, and a variety of other known toxic materials."(1) "It was noted by by Dr. William Torch of the University of Nevada School of Medicine that the D.P.T(diptheria, pertussis, tetnus) may be responsible for SIDS. He noted in one survey that two thirds of 103 children who died of SIDS had been immunized with DPT vaccine within three weeks of each death"(2) "Indigenous people have been subjected to many vaccinations. (Let us be aware that they are difficult to beat into submission and they own vast tracts of land which the authorities would like to have for their own benefit") (3)

Because of distributing this information I was threatened with losing my job. My response was that at least I would know in my heart I had done the right thing. I guess money means more to them than protecting human lives. (What upset me even more was when I was told not to discuss vaccines with Ida John of the Sto:Lo First Nation, she is the nutrition counsellor,prenatal and traditional birth counsellor, alcohol and drug counsellor and spiritual healer and leader and is very respected by her people and many others outside the community.

Now I realized that there was intentional deception towards these families. The secrecy, and unwillingness by the Health and Family services staff to allow me to communicate with Ida John clearly indicated that they had something to hide. My supervisor told me that these people really could not make clear decisions on their own, I was told to focus on nutrition, and not discuss vaccines .

She added that one person can not make a difference to which I replied that one is all it takes. Change happens if individuals are brave enough to go against the status quo by telling the truth.

A meeting was held with three nurses, two supervisors and Ida and myself. Ida was the only Sto:Lo person present, she felt outnumbered and spoke on behalf of her people. We did agree that families deserved a choice and I suggested we need to educate the staff and suggested we all go hear a few doctors speak on the dangers and side effects of all vacciness, but after distibuting vaccine literature I was told by my supervisor not to make this public, it was not mandatory for the nurses and was only propaganda.

I was ordered to stop communicating with the Sto:Lo families and also with Ida John, until they were back in a weeks time and then would decide what they would do with me.

Considering that I had observed a high incedence of deaths within the Sto:Lo communities linked to suicides, diabetes, cancer, heart disease and God only knows what else it saddened me that so much valuable information was being deliberately witheld from them. I realized that their accusations against me were false and it was wrong of them to attempt to prohibit me from communication with the families and Ida John but that was really their way of trying to fire me.. However I have too much dignity and respect for myself so I chose to resign and go public with my story in order to get the truth out. I once said to a man " no matter what happens I know Creator knows the truth and I have faith that I am doing the right thing".

I don't think they realized they had done me a favour because under our Canadian Charter of Rights I have the right to Freedom of Speech and Expression, and they have no legal right to suppress these rights, or the rights of the Sto:Lo people to learn the truth.

The day I resigned I was told that a nurse had quit because she could not keep administering the vaccines because she had seen too many adverse side effects and too much death. I had seen the adverse reaction reports from when the vaccines had been administered, so I guess that particular nurses conscience was getting to her and she just couldn't stand hurting people any more.

I really just want the Sto:Lo people to start to question and demand the truth and in doing so they will empower themselves to be as healthy as they once were before the white man drove them off their land, and corrupted them into using such toxic substances as white sugar, white flour, and alcohol and started killing them using pharmaceutical drugs and vaccines while suppressing their traditional use of herbal remedies. I strongly recommend to the Sto:Lo people that they hire an attorney and and proceed to sue Health Canada and Xyolhemylh Health Services as well to demand a complete investigation by their members of Parliament in order to stop these genocidal actions immediately.The truth shall set us all free! And I will never stop speaking the truth for the people.
