My experience at a large Opthamologist Practice this morning in Surrey,
It confirmed who is driving the policy regarding Covid and the Woke Agenda.
In the comments section as it is my rant for the day and will take up too much space.
Will post shortly.
In the waiting room, only the patients of Dr X where given a mask to wear when they saw Dr X. For the three or four tests leading up to that point, no mask was required. Only a staff member who worked with Dr X wore one in the exam room. I had questioned the need for a mask when they sent me my confirmation email. I called them about it. They were apologetic and something about a sick family member at home. The usual mention of why we wear masks was given by me. GMG told me in advance to accept the 5-10 min that I would have to wear the covering. So I did. Why? I am covered for the procedure, whereas GMG is not. So a free service which I appreciate.
In the waiting room, the only people who questioned the mask were from SE Asia. Not one White person said anything. Now this is a busy office. Someone walks in every 5 minutes. It is so well run like an assembly line with the use of communicators between staff to aid the flow. I am always impressed. Staff is very professional and friendly.
After observing the push-back from the SE Asian community, I had an idea as I knew I would be waiting in the next staging area after all the pre-tests were completed. Every year I had a 15 minute wait in a room holding 6 other patients before seeing the Doc.
I sat down in the last chair beside a White Senior with a mask still on. The rest were Sikh’s, and possibly Hindu’s and a man from Fiji originally. All seniors. The Fijian let out a big sigh. That was a good entrance to start. So I asked how he was doing.
He proceeded to tell me how “fucked” up Canada was as he moved back to Canada a year ago after selling his business in WA State.
We spoke about the school system. He has Grandkids both in BC and WA. He was really critical about the Woke Gender Agenda.
I agreed. At that point another lady, SE Asian, mentioned that she just retired a year ago from the local School District after 20 years. She vented regarding how it has destroyed education. it started another quiet SE Asian lady nodding vigourously in approval.
Then the Covid shots came up. It turns out none of the people in the room wanted any shots but had to to get their life back or to travel. Guess who looked on in horror to what we were discussing? The White Senior lady! She said nothing but she was likely thinking we were raving antivaxers. They can’t stand tThe Turd or Singh of the NDP. All are voting Conservative next time. Now this is likely one of the Largest Sikh communities outside of the Punjab.
At this time I was called to see the Doc. Came back out and there was a large checkout line in a separate room which eventually included the same people. They all told me that they never have a chance to talk to strangers about this. They thanked me for bringing up the topics. None of them will take anymore shots and even the Flu shot is going to be a tough sell when they all took it before. We talked some more. Turns out many of them have older children who did not take the shot.
The Fijian even asked how my exam went as if I was a long-time friend.
We all shook hands and smiles all around. They made my day and I believe it made their day.
This was after my cycling buddy called to say he can’t cycle with me as he was cycling with a friend for a week on the KVR tails in BC and his friend got sick. Tested positive for Covid. His friend has had at least 4 shots as of last year. Not sure what number he is at now. My buddy stopped at three shots and WON”T TAKE ANOTHER SHOT! but is testing every day for Covid. WTF!!!! He feels fine but is compelled to test everyday. This conversation was while I was driving to my eye appointment. Depressing to hear that he is still scared shitless over Covid. He did not want to give me Covid. You know my answer. Bring it on!
It’s the White Seniors who help drive Covid policy. The SE Asian Seniors that I’ve met have for the most part been questioning the whole narrative. The gender issue is really troubling to them. I don’t have the opportunity to speak with this group as they don’t tend to do outdoor Winter sports where I meet many people.
I will work on Nancy Greene as she seems to question the BC Public Health response but her husband thinks I’m a crazy antivaxer. If I can convince them, our community will not fall victim to more craziness as he is our Mayor.
My rant for the day! It always feels better afterward in this crazy world.
Thanks for sharing this experience Columbia
Great stuff
great to see people willing to talk about their feelings on these matters.
You are doing good work in the community
Just like to second Fully’s comment. Thank you Columbia.
GO columbia and sikhs…

One commented about the vast amount of immigrants being accepted at this time when the infrastructure can not handle it.
Healthcare, housing, etc.
You need to realize this is coming from persons who came to Canada 30-40 years ago. They see the decline.
They understand whereas the White Canadians, likely a teacher, nurse or government worker, have no concept and they are reason for the continued support for the insane policies of the Liberal/NDP/WEF coalition.
If you are able, try to strike up a conversation with someone that you have never spoken to before. Especially someone who came to Canada or the US from a less developed country. They came for a better life but are witnessing a slow slide into an environment that they left many years ago. They are horrified. They have more in common than you think. They may even be the ones that save us. I no longer identify with White Canadians. They have been brainwashed via a comfortable life. Let them take another 5 or 6 shots of every poison offered.
When I remember the past decade, most of the people who came from India have been the most pleasant to me. They want to fit in. They try to be very helpful and are honestly grateful to come to N America. The Chinese are very much more reserved. Don’t open up that much. Hard working for the most part. I have never seen someone of Indian or Chinese background in the Lower East Side of Vancouver whacked out on street drugs.
Natural selection may be a good thing if the White race has sunk this low. We brought this on ourselves.
For reference I am a White senior male.
As I was reading your events I kept thinking I was going to come to a part where you led a public revolt against masking and the whole waiting room was about to strip off the face thing and go nude on your command! Seemed to good to be true. But we will get there one day and fool doctors like that will have to face their idiocy one patient at a time. What would the good doctor do if his patients just said “No!”
I like your rants!
