Hey, anti-vaxxers, MCMXXIV is calling!

Yours truly is officially double-vaxxed. In other words, GE can roam freely around the world causing havoc on ignorance, watch out conspiracy theorists, your time is up! (Shout-out to Dr Sahin and Dr Tureci from BioNTech, there would be no Pfizer vaccine without their genius). 

If you're an anti-vaxxer, please exit stage left, enter the time machine provided and take yourself back to 1924 (just before the discovery of the tetanus vaccine) and stay put. Warning: by doing this, you won't have to endure all the other vaccines invented after 1924: chickenpox, diphtheria, measles, meningococcal, mumps, pneumococcal, polio, rubella to name a few. Added bonus, you also get to live a life without penicillin.

Fatalities from a pesky virus are rare in my current neck of the woods (metropolis of 5 million inhabitants), yet we're told we can only travel within a 10km (6.2 mi) radius. Thankfully, I'm stuck in the ideal place for doomsday!

Now that the jabs have taken their full affect, it's time to let the hair flow on a classic two-wheel ad-libbing detour.

We have entered the Twilight Zone!

What the world's eleventh most livable city looks like during the end of the world.

Off-tangent cycling encore (with a Canuck twist)

On this 155th edition of Canada Day, it's another round of vlogging from a winter less city. The Great White North won't be happy! Talking all things Canuck, it has been a harrowing year for the nation known as being too nice. 

I call on the globe to have a collective moment of silence for the gruesome discovery this week of 182 umarked graves near a former Indian residential school in Lower Kootenay Bay, B.C. (a grisly pattern is emerging, just over a month ago the remains of 215 children were found buried at a former Indian residential school in Kamloops, B.C. and just last week another 751 in Marieval, Saskatchewan).

This is just one example of a dark stain on Canadian history. Between the 1830s & 1977 the Federal government was in cahoots with the Catholic Church, housing 150,000 indigenous children in residential schools. This is the moment for Canada to prove its empathy credentials. I trust they will make the necessary repatriations, for too long the First Nations have been violated. Look at Australia (the nation founded by genocide), they can't find the decency to honour the Aboriginal people in the Constitution.

 Now we reconvene normal programming: another episode of bewildering commentary on two wheels.

Footnote

As my astute readers/viewers are aware, I've avoided pesky virus talk like the plague (pardon the pun). Sadly, I live in a nanny state locale (shall remain nameless, you know it as the arse end of the world) has gone into mass panic. I sent out the following tweet to earthlings stuck in this wasteland, and to educate those abroad that there are a lot of weak people among us.

Australians are frail! Don't be fooled by their token celebrities, portrayed by Hollywood as capable of killing snakes with bare hands. You guessed it! #Australia is in panic mode with zero #COVID19 deaths since Nov 2020. Covid "Fun" fact: 659 fatalities in Russia on 30/6/21.
