George Walters is a Canadian columnist and author with more than forty years of writing experience. For over twenty years he has written a weekly column for Postmedia Network — Canada's largest newspaper chain — never missing a single week, publishing fifty-two stories a year. Combined with his work in Reader's Digest Community Voices, World News, Country Living, The Country Register, and farm and rural lifestyle magazines across Canada, he has published well over two thousand stories drawn from everyday life. He writes about farm work, fishing, old trucks, and the kind of people you only find in small towns — but just as likely he'll hand a voice to a weathered telephone pole, or turn his eye on something happening in the world today and tell you exactly what he thinks about it. No subject is off limits. If there's a story in it, George will find it. He has been called a philosopher of everyday life, a description that came up more than once during his television appearances over the years — and it's not hard to see why. His writing has a way of making the ordinary feel worth sitting with. He is the author of eleven books, including yearly short story collections and the Clay Moretti Files mystery series. Clay is a fifty-year-old private investigator who drives a 1967 Ford Galaxie, smokes cigars, and operates by a code the modern world gave up on a long time ago. The cases are present day. The man handling them is not. All titles are available in paperback and eBook on Amazon. Together, George and his wife Ruth have also created Elmer Finds His Way, the first in what he hopes will be a long series of children's books. Ruth did all the illustrations, as she has for every one of George's books — and beyond that she designed and painted the covers as well. Her work is woven into every page of everything he has published. A few words from readers: "I pulled up a kitchen chair and read your story three times." "You have a way of making a person homesick for a place they haven't been to." "Thank you for writing things that make old people and kids feel the same way at the same time." All my titles are available in paperback and eBook on Amazon.ca here.

Radioactive Water Released Into Lake Ontario

Thousands of litres of radioactive water have been released into Lake Ontario as a result of an accident at a Canadian nuclear power plant, according to authorities. 73,000 litres (19,280 gallons) of radioactive water was released into Lake Ontario from the Pickering Nuclear Station.

This Happened on Monday March 14th.   Amazingly guess what our Powers That Be said.  This will have no effect on our drinking water.  Think about that for a minute. No threat on our drinking water. Unbelievable,  problem arises though, as most folks believe them.  Well what more can I say, only in Canada. My  opinion only.

Pharmaceutical Agenda

Good advice is usually right in front of us, just most choose not  to see what is right in front of them.

A cured patient is a lost source of income. A sick patient who is marginally “improved” is a manageable patient.

Managing patients means routine office visits and renewing of drug prescriptions. Therefore, a manageable patient is a continuing source of income; a cash cow if you will. Multiply that by a few hundred million people and you get an idea why this deceit is being put upon you. The profits from the so called “health-care” industry are staggering!

The thrust of the orthodox pharmaceutical agenda is to provide temporary relief, while never addressing the cause of the disease condition. This agenda insures regular visits to the doctor’s office and requires the patient to routinely return to the pharmacy to refill his prescriptions. This is what the game is all about folks, plain and simple. Deny it or Deal with it,…Stick with it or Get Out of it! … your choice.  My opinion only.

Canadians Are Asleep At The Switch

Japan as we all know is going through a nuclear catastrophe.  In hearing this I just had to put in my opinion on what I am feeling and for that matter what you should be feeling.  Thing is folks, here in Canada we have 22 nuclear plants, 18 in working order.  22  plants, that is enough to destroy almost all of North America if a problem of great interest should occur. Hell one plant would wipe out pretty well all of Canada if something should happen. Folks would be walking around in agony, deformed and so much pain it would be to much for human kind to even bear.  We here feel that we are safe and our Powers That Be has things under control.  Let me tell you a little bit on having things under control. When it comes to Mother Nature nothing is safe.  So far we have been very lucky in our faults as none has come back to bite us.  Well shouldn’t say nothing, as with all the waste from these nuclear stations laying around that isn’t good for human kind to say the least.   It is only going to get worse to, as with new stations on the table to be built.  We should be looking into more safer means of energy an getting rid of these nuclear stations not building more.  In reality Canadians love radiation, we use it for everything, power, X-rays, chemotherapy, we even plant seeds in our body with the stuff.  Dam, if one would take a close look at this we are all walking nuclear stations in ourself.  It’s no wonder we are all getting sick with all this stuff in and around us.  They tell us this stuff is good medicine an it is safe, so safe we can use it inside our bodies.  That is just totally crazy thinking, totally, no other words for it. Radiation or nuclear kills anything and everything, and I for one can’t see how us here in Canada can be so dam blind. Another problem is that these quakes that has hit now and then. It is going to get worse let me tell you, as you can’t keep on taking from the earth and not putting back.  We have depleted the earth of huge amounts of iron, gas, oil to many things to name.  That open space under the ground is just an invite for catastrophic event to occur.  And it will happen right here in Canada, just a matter of time.  What then? Well…… simply put, we will cease to exist that’s what, unless we start closing down these stations not building new ones and not use it as a medicine in our bodies.  There is other ways of getting free, healthy power, it’s out there, but it is not being used, as greed for the all mighty dollar is what is stopping it from coming to our aid.  Same as good healthy medicine is out there also but greed for the almighty dollars is doing nothing more than making us sick. What a shame.  And they, the Powers That Be sit back and let it all happen saying…….oh but this is good for man kind.  My opinion only.

Bit Of Humor For A Fine Spring Day

The wife says, As I get older my husband doesn’t bother to look at me to much any more!

“I’m so sorry for you. As I get older, my husband says I get more beautiful every day.”

“Yes, but your husband’s an antique dealer.”

Feelings On Pharmaceutical Companies

George you talk a lot about pharmaceutical companies what is your true feelings on what they are doing”

Glad you asked.  What I believe is happening is that people, whether within the medico-pharmaceutical industry or outside it, are being subconsciously influenced by deeply rooted myths, fears and superstitions. People are still being manipulated by their fears and childish hopes. They are still told that the source of their problems is outside them and that the solution can only come from the outside. They are not allowed to do anything by themselves and as long as this fantasy keeps happening we will never see a cure for what ails us, simple as that.  My Opinion Only
