Quoted: I’m fine with US currency. I just don’t want everything to be digital and in 1 central bank. That makes it too easy for the government to track EVERY purchase and control any purchase. Right now we can put our money in financial institutions of our choice, write checks, use debit and credit cards or withdraw and pay cash. All those options are what they want to do away with.

There won’t be one central bank, but everything will be digital. The capability to do what you fear will be there, even without a “digital ID program”. The question is whether that capability would actually be used for what you fear it will be used for. It will without a doubt be used to ensure taxes are paid (ie no more under the table) at the least. |

Quoted: @Nailcrusher After spending last weekend with my liberal in-laws and sister-in-law in Canada, it’s easy to see why they have fallen so far. They live in south-eastern Ontario. They are French who are intrinsically socialists. The liberal English Canadians outnumber the conservatives. The unrestricted immigration from Third World shitholes since the late 1980’s was the last nail in the coffin. They are also heavily liberal.

View Quote Problem is where do you spend said cash when merchants get held to account of not accepting cash by the government? Any merchant who accepts cash not being able to deposit it in their bank would make most quit accepting cash. I spend virtually no cash now. Everything is purchased with a credit card and that bill is paid in full every month. Some would say I’m already digital. Yes I am. But I have 8-10 different personal and business bank accounts and several investment accounts spread out over numerous different financial institutions. Not just 1 CBDC controlled by the government. There lies the concern. Cash also allows many purchases to remain anonymous if that is anyones concern. And Imagine paying taxes on garage sale income when everything sold Is done digitally. Your kids lemonade stand…..yeah we need those taxes. |

Quoted: The WEF press release and other documents don’t explain why the use of physical passports is now apparently burdensome and don’t specify whether the “identity data” that would be digitally stored would include vaccine credentials — in effect, an extension of vaccine passports. Andrew Bud, CEO of biometric ID company iProove, a U.S. Department of Homeland Security contractor, recently described vaccine certificates as driving “the whole field of digital ID in the future,” adding they are “not just about COVID [but] about something even bigger” and that “once adopted for COVID [they] will be rapidly used for everything else.” I wonder what they mean by “everything else” View Quote Sorry but any DHS contractor has already shown their colors.

The WEF is a virtual state and Castreau is a serving member.
Castreau serves WEF and not Canadians. Serving the WEF is no different than being an asset or member of a foreign nation-state government. Frankly, one that's goals are in deep contrast to the interests of the citizens of the infiltrated nation-state. Digital IDs were pursued earlier this year/end of last year but hushed and rebranded after castreau committed financial crimes against grassroot political opponents during the protests. This plan was exposed shortly after and received the negative public response it merited. It is the basis for a social credit score. Anyone who deals with big data understands the importance of matching and joining multiple data sets using a common field. The ultimate goal is to be able to shut your access off to commerce and your finances with the flip of a field in a database. Similar to how smart power meters work. So in short they want to be more effective and efficient in doing what they did to the canadian truckers and their supporters. This sort of behavior takes a runaway effect and will only be expanded. The goal of all centralization is control. It is inherent in the concept of centralization. If they tell you they need centralization to help you they are taking on more than they are capable of doing and most certainly doing it to help themselves at your expense regardless of the sales pitch. I'd like to make one last comment: they have learned the centralized financial system is a tool they can leverage for policy rollout. ESG, DEI, etc. Your canary is the financial system. That may change as the yield drops due to public awareness but at the moment this is the process. |

Quoted: I don’t want the government controlling my money / account and a CBDC would do that. Total control over our finances is the end goal. The end goal here is a social credit score system like China has in place. Then they monitor EVERYTHING you purchase. Too much red meat? Purchase denied. Too much ammo? Purchase denied. Provocative social media post? No vacation plane tickets for you. See where this leads? View Quote Accurate summation. And the digital or RF ID will not just "prove your identity", it will track everything about you, linking to a database with your life history, from medical to voting, gun purchases to social media posts that are disdainful of authoritarian governments. That will translate to your credit score, which determines what you're ALLOWED to buy, where you are ALLOWED to travel, etc. SMART health cards are the first step here in the US. Don't get one! |

Lara Logan - Nobody owns me & nobody ever will.
@laralogan · 6h Not surprised Canada is leading the way with the WEF agenda since I learned some time ago that Justin Trudeau is the “anointed successor” to Klaus Schwab. Right now it’s still poss to avoid Canada but that is partly what they want. Geographic isolation is the goal for all of us (but not them of course) - no private ownership of cars, no global airline industry & no right to use public transportation unless they say so. Is this the future you want? —- Canada starts to roll out biometric kiosks in airports Starting with three airports. Three of Canada’s major airports, Montreal-Trudeau International, Calgary International, and Toronto’s Pearson International, will be getting biometrics-ready kiosks provided by Switzerland-based aviation IT firm SITA. According to a press release, some of the seven hundred boarding and checking kiosks will have biometric scanning features but it is not clear how many will have contactless biometric features. The last of the kiosks will be installed in early 2023. The company confirmed the kiosks have text-to-speech hardware. It is not surprising that Montreal-Trudeau International is one of the airports that will have the kiosks. In 2019, SITA said it wanted to make the city its global center of excellence, and welcomed product managers, developers and experts in data science. In June, the head of Pearson International Deborah Flint called for the use of biometrics to speed up the processing of travelers. SITA announced that there are 87 of its biometric kiosks at Frankfurt Airport in Germany. https://reclaimthenet.org/canada-starts-to-roll-out-biometric-kiosks-in-airports/ Lara Logan - Nobody owns me & nobody ever will. @laralogan · Aug 19 The insane people who think they’re in charge and know better than us. They don’t believe in moral courage because they have none. They don’t know what it is to stand on principle because they have no idea what principles are. But they are absolutely certain that every one of us is as weak, greedy & easy to corrupt as they are. Good luck. —— World Economic Forum makes big push for digital identity programs around the world Says that governments need to develop "digital trust" to make people accept the rollout of digital IDs. The World Economic Forum (WEF) is promoting the introduction of a digital identity system, at whose core will be identity – and who better to create and maintain it than banks and companies offering financial services. According to a blog post, citing the International Data Corporation (IDC)Digital Trust Index, there are “trillions of dollars of opportunities” around the world, but a higher level of “digital trust” as a universal value is what’s missing in order to unlock this potential. In this narrative, the WEF positions identity as the key element to building the digital economy. The apparently pressing need for this development, at this particular juncture, is explained with what the Davos-based group says has been the recent “prevalence of cybercrime.” Digital trust is described as benefiting everyone because it ensures online interactions happen with people rather than bots, and with identified people, too. The WEF further talks the idea up by linking it with better security and privacy, and such principles like ethics, fairness, and inclusivity. Who, then, should be entrusted with building and controlling this system of trust based on identity? The WEF says it’s banks and financial services firms, citing a consumer survey that showed “almost half” of respondents want governments to be behind “a more secure digital world,” while 68% showed “interest” in a digital identity system with an independent body overseeing it. The article then states (without mentioning numbers) that consumers said they would pick banks and financial firms as the most trustworthy entities to create and maintain a system that controls their identities online. The WEF write-up adds some doom-and-gloom scenarios and fear mongering into the mix, arguing that with economies around the world heading into high inflation and recession, and the trend likely to continue – digital economy and its potential becomes more important than ever. But – unless there is a way to identify everybody online, the WEF warns that people will actually stop interacting online. “And if enough of us lose trust in online services, large parts of the global economy and therefore society will start to break down,” claims the blog post, all in a bid to reiterate the dire need of letting banks “build trust” and manage identities. https://reclaimthenet.org/wef-digital-id-push/ |
