Dozens of health-care workers picketed outside of Regina's Pasqua Hospital on Friday to ask the province to address conditions in Saskatchewan's health-care system.

The rally, organized by the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), was the fourth in a series across Saskatchewan, with the other three held in Weyburn, North Battleford and Prince Albert this month. 

CUPE 5430 president Bashir Jalloh said the union has been at the bargaining table since September 2023 and is frustrated with the province's pace.

"The process is extremely slow. Our members are getting frustrated. People want meaningful wages," Jalloh said.

Jalloh said workers are looking for a "significant'' pay raise in line with inflation, better working conditions and investments to improve Saskatchewan's retention rate for health-care workers. [...]

In the 1950s, a psychiatrist named Abram Hoffer developed an adrenochrome hypothesis in Saskatchewan, Canada under the Rockefeller research program.

It was there that he was able to show that adrenochrome is a hallucinogen that could be made and studied.

Not only this but he admitted the body actually naturally produces adrenochrome.

But it gets worse, the Weyburn mental hospital in Saskatchewan is exactly where the CIA's MK Ultra program was conceived.

So the Rockefeller Foundation was funding the experimentation of Adrenochrome from the birthplace of MK Ultra.

This is no conjecture but a fact. Have you ever heard of this before?

Nazi demonstrators beaten and chased in Westwood

"A group of seven Nazis carrying racist signs outside a Westwood theater in 1967 were protesting the movie “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner,” which portrays an interracial romance.

An article in the next morning’s Los Angeles Times reported:

Seven Nazi demonstrators were beaten and chased from the neighborhood Friday night as they attempted to picket a motion picture theater in West Los Angeles.

The uniformed members of the American Nazi Party began picketing the Village Theater at 961 Broxton Ave., West Los Angeles, shortly after the main feature began at 8 p.m.

A crowd of more than 50 people gathered within a few minutes and began jeering and taunting the khaki-clad self-proclaimed Nazis. A youth, about 20, made first physical contact with the demonstrators when he bumped into Nazi Lt. Lee Vincent.

Violence erupted moments later as the jeering crowd closed on the Nazis, forcing them into the street. The seven replied to taunts with anti-Semitic slogans and were attacked.

The mob appeared to have no specific organization, but was composed mostly of young men in their late teens or early 20s. They ganged up on the individual Nazis, knocking some to the street.

No clubs or weapons were in evidence, but several Nazis were bloodied by the large crowd as they attempted to take refuge at a gas station at the corner of Gayley and Weyburn avenues. At least one appeared to be seriously injured.

The running battle continued onto Gayley Avenue, where a red and white Volkswagen bus picked up six and roared away. A lone bedraggled Nazi sought sanctuary in a nearby supermarket, and slipped away.

Police did not arrive on the scene until the battle was over. No arrests were made."

"CLAIM REIGN OF TERROR EXISTS IN TOBACCO TRADE," Toronto Star. May 16, 1934. Page 9. ---- Retailers Afraid to Display Any But Imperial's Pro- ducts, Inquiry Told ---- SAYS THREATS MADE --- Special to The Star Ottawa, May 15. - H. C. Fortier, Montreal tobacco wholesaler, appearing before the tobacco price spreads inquiry, to-day declared he had become so calloused to complaints of Imperial Tobacco's alleged efforts to strangle all other competition that he could not begin to enumerate the various instances.

Quebec retailers were in constant fear of being cut off Imperial's buying list, he said.

Favors Price Maintenance John Hughes, secretary-treasurer of LO. Crothe, Ltd., of Montreal, said his firm was in favor of price maintenance.

His company had passed on to the consumers the lowered excise and sales tax in 1932 but nothing came out of their pockets, he said. Jobbers and retailers absorbed the 37 cents reduction not taken up by the reduced government tax.

Mr. Hughes claimed his 1931 price of 27 cents per pound was the highest paid by any tobacco buyer that year. In 1932, he paid 31 and 27 cents per pound on two purchases.

Witness said he had refused to supply jobbers who cut prices. "Did you ever refuse because the jobber did not belong to the association?"

"No."

"Do you contribute money to the association?" "In one case."

Charges Competition Strangled Mr. Hughes declared he did not like the methods used to strangle competition. "The methods used are so numerous it would take a week to enumerate them. Some salesmen for other manufacturers even go into tobacco shops and, if rivals goods are too prominently displayed, they will pick them up themselves and cart them to the back of the store. The retailer is afraid to say a word for fear of being cut off."

That applied more to cigars than cigarettes, he said. "To whom are you referring "Imperial Tobacco."

"Is that a real complaint?" "Yes. It is the general practice."

"Can you name them?" "Yes, but I ask that their names be withheld. Otherwise I fear for the consequences unless Imperial Tobacco has has a change of heart because of what has come out of this committee."

W. W. Kennedy, Winnipeg, Conservative, asked him to file the names for Investigation by the committee's investigators. "Otherwise we are dealing with fog," he pointed out.

"Nearly Life Death" Mr. Hughes charged "complete discrimination against his cigarettes. He cited the case of a Winnipeg retailer warned by Imperial Tobacco that their goods must have 80 per cent of his advertising space under penalty of losing the privilege of buying direct.

"Eighty per cent, means 100 per cent," he complained.

"I looked in 3 different windows to-day," said E. J. Young Lib.. Weyburn). "Imperial cigarettes dominated most windows dominated but I saw Macdonald's and your cigarettes in others."

Norman Sommerville. K.C. committee counsel: "If the retailer doesn't play with Imperial. It is life or death to him?" "Pretty near." Mr. Hughes said three weeks ago his firm put out a new cigarette in Toronto and put streamers on the streets. A day or so later Imperial plastered the streets with streamers advertising their brands.

"We put up more streamers to counteract this," he said. "To-day I received a wire from our Toronto manager telling me that almost all our streamers were taken down, but he could not prove anything."

Witness cited several instances of alleged threats by Imperial salesmen the tobacconist did not remove the showcases of rival firms. "This one funny," he observed. "This complaint does not affect our goods. It says the salesmen warned the retailer that he would have trouble buying direct unless he took Benson-Hedges cigar showcase off his counter."

Mr. Hughes declared the complaints widespread that the believed orders to salesmen must come direct from Imperial Tobacco head- quarters

"Have you any actual personal experience of this practice?" "No, but one retailer was ordered to produce for Imperial a record of all other brands he sold that month. He had ordered goods three or four days delivery delivery was held up.. He told us the Imperial salesman coming back the next day so we sent down some men to hide in the next room and listen to the conversation. The salesman told the retailer he was ashamed to do this but he had orders from head office. If the records were not forthcoming. the retailer could no longer buy direct from Imperial. Our men came out. The salesman saw he was trapped and the retailer got his supplies that afternoon."

Claims Signs Torn Down Only last week the signs advertising a new cigar his firm was making in Hull were torn down. Mr. Hughes said. "Who did this?" he was asked. "Imperial," he replied.

"Who says so?" "Our manager. He would not say so unless he had pretty definite evidence."

Major Kennedy: "It's a big fish eating the case of the little fish. That has gone on ever since there were fish."

Mr. Hughes: "Maybe we were fish to go into this but, now we are in, we will fight."

"But sometimes the little fish escape?" "The smaller they are, the better chance of escape they have."

All manufacturers could afford to the grower more for his tobacco were not for the premiums in packets of cigarettes, he said. "Who started this practice premiums? asked Sam Factor.

Mr. Sommerville: "Cards in cigarettes are as old as you or I. I remember when we used to get pictures of Delilah Fox, Lily Langtry and other famous actresses. They were to look at, though."

Claims Initiative Stultified Defining the practices which he said militated against free exercise of business Initiative, H. Fortier, prominent Montreal jobber distributing for Macdonald's, said: "We have found we would put up a British Consols sign and an Imperial man would come along and tell us he could sell us no longer direct. We arranged to distribute Macdonald's tobacco the Montreal unemployed. A few days later the retailer who distributed to the jobless was told he could no longer buy direct from Imperial."

A. C. Picard, vice-president of the Rock City Tobacco Co., at Leamington, makers of Spud and Master Mason cigarettes, said the retailer to-day was in "dangerously poor" condition "Every one of them will be out of business business in in a few years, years," he predicted. The retailer's share of the $75.000.000 Canada spends in smokes every year was $12,000,000, he said. This, divided among 57,000 retailers, is an average of $260, or $1 a week.

"The retailer should get 20 per cent. and the jobber 10 per cent. That's how it was until ten years ago, he said.

He often thought the heads of Imperial did not know the lengths to which their salesmen went to get business, he said. "They drive their men, who get so nervous and excitable they upset everything in their scramble for business. Imperial has 133 salesmen going around the country with 100 advertisers following them to check up on them.

"They are to keep on putting the fear of God into the heart of the retailer," he claimed. "The salesmen are frightened of losing their jobs if they don't seem to have firm enough hold on the retailers."
