In addition to suspending her medical license, she was ordered to submit to a neuropsychological evaluation by a board-selected psychologist. In January 2022 Meryl also made a testimony before the Health and human Services Committee and made the following points - 1. All available COVID vaccines are experimental products. 2. They must legally provide recipients the right to refuse. 3. Mandates negate the right of refusal. 4. Basic safety questions regarding the vaccines have not been resolved, and some will not be answered until 2027. 5. The WHO does not recommend broad COVID vaccinations for children. 6. Parents should be permitted to make individualized decisions regarding their children's risks and benefits from COVID vaccines. 7. Unfortunately, no one can make a fully informed decision about COVID vaccines until the public has access to complete information on safety and efficacy, which are not now available. Meryl highlights the co-optation of the World Health Organization (WHO) by vaccine manufacturers and the globalist agenda behind it. The conversation touches on the need for political change, grassroots activism, and the fight against censorship and propaganda. It concludes with the challenges of political change and the power dynamics between governments and corporations. This was an eye-opening conversation, I hope you enjoy it.

Roy L Hales/ Cortes Currents - Three years ago, Area C received funding to develop an Integrated Community Plan (ICSP). COVID intervened and it wasn't until last August that a 14 member advisory group was assembled. The resulting draft plan was presented at the Wednesday, January 11, meeting of the SRD's Electoral Area's Services Committee. “It was a very quick process and, we really appreciate all the efforts that went into it. The task force was convened in August and by November the task force, the consultant and the SRD planner had come up with a draft proposal, which was then circulated to the community, and that draft was commented on by the community but subsequently, because there was a very short timeline, some amendments were made to the document that was subsequently published and what you're receiving today,” explained Lannie Keller, a Read Island resident and team member. Back for further discussion Nick Robinson, from Quadra Island, said, “We got back just over a hundred questionnaires and at that point the ICSP was amended without involvement of our community advisory group.” Lannie Keller: “Our request is that you will look at the four small but significant changes that are requested and the task force is unanimous in making that recommendation.” After close to 50 minutes of discussion, much of it after Robinson and Keller had left, Regional Director Robyn Mawhinney said the task force should have a chance to state their case. “I really appreciate the thoughtfulness that the task force brought these four minor recommendations that they would be more comfortable seeing in the final document. And I would really like it if the task force could have a chance to discuss those alterations or suggestions with the consultant. How do I say that as a motion?” she said. Chief Administrative Officer David Leitch replied, “It sounds like you would like to defer the comments from the delegation back to the task force and the consultant.” “That's right,” said Mawhinney. At which point newly elected Chair Gerald Whalley asked, “Do we have a seconder?” Director John Rice seconded the motion, which carried. In the vote that followed, the committee agreed, “That the comments regarding the ICSP be referred back to the task force and consultant.”
