OTTAWA – In a shocking surge, 24 Ontario residents have died in less than 72 hours from Swine Flu, the Public Health Agency of Canada reported on its website.

Latest: Another startling surge, 18 dead in Ontario, 22 in Alberta.

Ontario’s fatalities reported between November 10 and 11 a.m. EST on November 12 catapults the death toll from 37 reported on Nov. 10 to a total of 61. That is twice the figure of dead in Quebec and the highest of any province in Canada.

Hospitals from coast to coast are swamped with admissions and visits to emergency departments in the past week with other provinces reporting record admissions from Swine Flu since its outbreak was noticed in April.

Nova Scotia and Manitoba reported one death each between Nov. 10 and Nov. 12 to take Canada’s national fatality toll to 161 with much of the spike happening since the second wave of Swine Flu began in October.

On November 10 at 11 a.m. EST, Ontario’s death toll stood at 37 and the Canadian national total was at 135.

46 Canadians have died  between November 5 and November 12 with heavy rates of hospitalizations across the country.

Ontario government officials could not be reached last night to comment about the 24 deaths.

The latest federal figures show B.C. has 23 deaths with eight occurring in just one week, Alberta has 20, Saskatchewan 5, Manitoba 8, Ontario 61, Quebec 35, Nova Scotia 2, Newfoundland and Labrador 5 and one each in Yukon and Nunavut.

In B.C., more than 200 people have been admitted to hospital in just one week. But provincial health officials say they are keeping their fingers crossed that the sickness from Swine Flu has reached a plateau.

The latest death toll reported in Ontario is also likely to create a bigger demand for vaccine that is in short supply across Canada.

    Canada need to purchase the H1N1 life saving drug peramivir from BioCryst.

    Interesting developments indeed. With the Moshe incident in Aug of this year to the outbreak in Ukraine, this does not bode well. Let’s see what time tells. Unfortunately history has proven time and time again that it is not time that is the problem but the myriad of vermin looking to make a buck off of this. Not to forget such horrible creatures as Prince Phillip making statements of “getting rid of the useless eaters.” Baxter bioweapon? Mass cull? Money making scheme? Crash recovery? You decide. It sure as **** isn’t a coindidence and it sure isn’t someting that has not been manipulated with on a “MAN” level.

  3. Ashlea

    How many of the dead have had the vaccine??

  4. News Editor

    The vaccine takes between seven to ten days to be effective. So it is possible some deaths may have happened during that time but there are no government records of deaths that are availalble to us that would provide those specifics. However, if you are wondering if it is safe to be vaccinated or if you wondering if it works, you can count on the fact that tens of thousands have been vaccinated in Canada and it is a life-saver for sure.

    It is a life-saver for sure? You mean like the 1976 swine flu vaccine?

    There is much more to this so-called pandemic than meets the eye. Much more. We just don’t know yet exactly what is going on, but this vaccine could be a trojan horse. Why was the 1918 flu virus recreated from an frozen victim in Alaska? Why did the WHO change their definition of pandemic just before their declaration? Why did Baxter release seasonal flu vaccine stock contaminated with avian flu back in Feb 2009, as reported by Bloomberg? Why are govts trying to force health workers or even all citizens to get vaccinated for a flu virus that hasn’t shown significant danger over and above the regular flu viruses? Why are the vaccine makers given impunity from all liabilities when their products are so safe?

    Check out why the Polish health minister is speaking out against the vaccine. There is definitely something fishy going on – do a lot of homework, because it is not sure that the vaccine is a life-saver.

    “That is twice the figure of dead in Quebec and the highest of any province in Canada.”

    anyone ever notice, that ontario’s population is also the highest of any province in canada? seriousallly, why is everyone quick to say “OHNO! PANDEMIC!” without actually checking the facts? ontario’s seasonal flu deaths is also highest in canada… mearly because theres more people…

  7. THIS IS NOT ‘SWINE FLU’ – IT NEVER WAS.
    I would like very much to know the SYMPTOMS of the dead – not the false diagnosis.
    Were any coughing up blood? Did autopsy show black lungs?
    The vaccine will make you sicker! DANGER!

  8. Gerry

    A guy named big stan died in leamington ontario of a heart attack. He was tested later and found to have had the swine flu. They labled that as a death from swine flu. I wonder how many other deaths in those figures are that stretched. Or maybe we should start exhuming every one that has died of a heart attack in the last year and test for H1N1? Probably not.

  9. jim

    Nature gone wrong? Um, no. Try BIOWEAPON. The distribution of this disease makes utterly no sense unless it was deliberately and strategically planted. And how! Medimmune PATENTED the H1N1 strain in 2006. The authors of the patent, not at all responsible for its distribution, were utterly shocked upon first hearing how their research was used for destruction in Mexico earlier this year according to an interview with Dr. A. True Ott. Novartis PATENTED the H1N1 vaccine back in 2008, but the media didn’t blow its H1N1 trumpets until 2009! Will the vaccine be the solution to the problem? One of my friends was sickened from the vaccine after she took it, and then became ill 3 weeks later with the same problem!

  10. john

    All patents for all vaccines were applied for BEFORE 2009 when the flu FIRST appeared, one in 2005, check it out at the US patent office. The vaccines include such things as Nonoxyol-9(sp) a spermacide, fornaldehyde, aspertame, anti-freeze and squalane which is known to cause Gulfwar syndrome. The vaccines are designed to harm not help.

  11. Jabal

    This is a bio engineered weapon. You have been warned.

  12. Interesting…….I guess they have started to dump this stuff on the heads of Canadians now, just like in the Ukraine. Let’s hope it doesn’t get as bad as over there. Its time to remove from power EVERY single person who is connected to secret organizations that use politics to further their private agenda’s. Bilderburgers, CFR, Trilateral Commission, Royal Roundtable, Masons etc. etc. need to be removed from power and banned from holding any office ever again. If not they all need to be shot. Period.

  13. phishybongwaters

    Tell the truth. Each and every person that has died, did so from underlying conditions exacerbated by possible H1N1, the fact is, it takes time to lab test to verify h1n1 and they AREN’T doing this.

    Beyond that, anyone presenting flu like symptoms is labeled as H1N1 infected, which simply is not the case. Keep pushing the hype, Baxter is loving every minute of it, as well as Obama, who happens to own at least 50,000 shares of stock in Baxter.

    Yup, each injection pays out to him, and most of the other people desperately trying to get you vaccinated.

    You should also ask why they engineered this “shortage” which you can research and find the same transcripts of meetings I read in which they decide people won’t take it, so lets pretend there’s a shortage.

    And that’s the story right? Not the flood of pregnant women who miscarried right after the vaccination, not the deaths attributed to the vaccine, not the people getting horrible paralyzing ailments from the vaccine, not the mercury, thermosil and other adjuvents.

    there’s not enough to go around, shut up and take your shot.

    P.S. you can’t sue if you get hurt, yup, sounds safe to me, excuse me I have to go get into this rusty old ford van that has a “free candy” sign on the side of it.

  14. Tabbou

    Like Ashlea I would also like to know of the dead how many had been vaccinated?

  15. 24 dead in 72 hours,,, that’s it ?

    In the United states we loose roughly 40,000 people a year from the ordinary, nobody cares less flu,, If you break that down, that means about 109 people a day, or 327 people in 72 hours, ON A NORMAL BASIS,,

    I love when people get scared because they are told to,, DO THE MATH PEOPLE,,,,,,,,,,,

  16. Hmmmm?

    It is funny how they just assume that all these deaths are related to the swine flu. As I understand it you have to be tested for the flu; basically they swab you and then have to grow the virus in a lab and determine if it is swine flu or the seasonal flu, this as you can imagine takes time. This is why the government has stopped testing everyone for this virus…however, they have no problem adding you to the stats, unconfirmed. Right now in Canada and a number of other countries, anyone who is showing signs of the flu is automatically being tallied as a swine flu victim. I have a problem injecting myself with a fluid that the company who makes it has the governments of the world agree that they are not liable for ANY adverse side affects related to this vaccine including DEATH! Come on now people! Wash your hands, if your sick stay home, get rest, take Advil and drink plenty of liquids!

  17. Og

    I wouldn’t recommend taking advil or any pharmaceutical drug… which is designed to suppress symptoms. What is needed is to strengthen the body’s natural systems, not weaken them. A Dr. Skarko has determined a very likely scenario that could account for the high death rate from the 1918 Spanish (swine) flu… she found that back then health practitioners were overprescribing the new drug Aspirin… which led to bleeding in the lungs, perhaps due to the fact that Aspirin depletes the body’s vitamin C… I recommend boosting your vitamin C levels instead as well as your vitamin D3 level. Silver water is also helpful as both an antiviral and antibacterial agent. Many flu-related deaths are actually due to subsequent bacterial infections in the lungs. Check out Dr. Mercola or Dr. Gary Null for more info.

  18. Silliness

    when you have uninformed people like “pastor” above spewing nonsense that is absoltuely unsupported by science, it just breeds more stupid responses (like his). And news editor says ‘tens of thousands” have had the vaccine in Canada??? Try 6.6 MILLION people! (There’ve been 200,000 in Ottawa alone, news hound!). a grand total of 34 people with significant reaction to the vaccine, and ZERO deaths from it.
    Drop your silly conspiracy theories, and stick to some actual science for a change. These comments (like jim saying his friend “got sick from the vaccine”) are silly. she may have gotten sick, alright. But you do NOT get sick from a protein string — which is what is in the vaccine. you do NOT get the flu virus in the vaccine. sigh……

  19. Cedric

    Totally agree with msg left by Robert above!

    The same thing is happening in France at the moment. Surprisingly, one week after they started vaccinating kids in schools, the media report that the number of sick people has been multiplied by 5 in the last 2 days!!! Strange coindence? I think not, I believe that vaccination is the vector of this new flu strains, which, as it’s been rightly pointed out by many brilliant scientists, looks very suspicious and most likely man-made… Easy to drop a few bad strains in a few vaccine batches….

    Isn’t it also strange that of all countries, it had to be Ukraine?? So close to Russia and the Middle East, with poor health care, and full of natural resources… How convenient….

  20. Carol

    Yes, like others mentionned, I notice a surge of flu-like symptoms in our workplace people who got the shot this week. Isn’t it obvious that if there was not any disease at all, but now a big number of employees have it just after the vax. Could this all be a “Coincidence”?

  21. News Editor

    It makes sense. The second wave of Swine Flu intensified in the past three weeks. Read the story on how many patient consultations doctors are billing government for. Just because people are starting to get sick in large numbers doesn’t mean it has anything to do with the vaccine. Stop listening to these conspiracy theorists and go get vaccinated.

  22. devon

    You might consider adjusting your headline and opening paragraph…. heck.. your ENTIRE ARTICLE for that matter. Call PHAC and ask… and you will find that 24 deaths were added to the list in that 72 hour period. MOST OF THEM DID NOT DIE IN THAT 72 HOUR PERIOD. In fact, some of those people died many days (even weeks) earlier, and it took time for the report to be made. Maybe just a tiny bit of research, instead of spreading yet another untruth because you didn’t get your facts right? Just sayin…

  23. What we have here is a “health scare system“… herding us like frightened sheep into getting shots of mercury which we don’t need, and lining the pockets of GSK. The deaths from this supposed pandemic are less than the regular seasonal flu. The media should be ashamed of itself for the shoddy one-sided reporting it’s doing, almost devoid of real journalistic integrity and fact-finding or truth telling. Disgusting really.

  24. News Editor

    Well, OK. We thought this was about to end. But here is another surge. 18 more die in Ontario, 22 in Alberta, 2 more in B.C. It takes Canada’s total to 250 in reporting period between Nov. 17 to 11 a.m. Nov. 19.

  25. News Editor

    Wait a minute. So a lot more people die in car accidents and many other causes. That does not mean the media should not report deaths that happen from a new virus. You don’t seem to be hiding in a bunker – and if you are, at least you’re able to reach us. I imagine you’re one of those who says we should also point out seasonal flu deaths – that will come soon. We don’t have seasonal flu yet.

  26. Well yes. When people hear the pronouncement from that grand overseer of the world’s health, the WHO, that there is a pandemic underway, naturally they are frightened. But is it really a pandemic, according to the classical definition, meaning thousands of dead, requiring emergency measures, forced innoculations, quarantines, etc.? No, far from it. So what I expect from real journalists is to uncover the truth, give us real perspective with facts and deep honest analysis of the reality, no matter how damning it might be in implicating the health authorities, the govts, and the pharmaceutical corporations involved. In fact, the more damning the more crucial it is to get to the bottom of the truth.

  27. Practically everything that is learned these days in terms of the truth comes not from the lame stream media, but from alternative sites and a handful of journalists and doctors who are active in voicing and writing what they know, through websites, podcasts, etc. But this information is not easy to find for many; it must be sought through digging for it. Even now many older people still aren’t familiar with Youtube, or the various alternative news sources.

    Every time I turn on CBC or CKNW or CFUN I hear the same old spin and slanted pseudo news propaganda. It frustrates me because I know very well that there is another side, which is very credible and tells a very different story. For example, no one reports about what Dr. Gary Null testified at the NYS hearings which helped force the NY govt to back off from mandatory vaccination of health workers there. No one talks about the contaminated flu vaccines put out by Baxter in Feb. No one talks about our govt regulators and health policy makers and their relationship with the pharmaceutical industrial complex.

    By definition, Pandemic refers to geographic spread rather than how sick people will get. But you have to agree that people have been sickened by this by the millions and this is being covered because it is new – something that we have not seen before. It is a novel virus. We don’t deal with conspiracy theories, just facts. And these figures you see are facts. Keep it simple.

  29. Every year flu viruses sickens millions of people and kills tens of thousands (directly or indirectly) – that’s par for the course, and new strains are common as the various influenza strains have a tendency to mutate, which is also why flu vaccine has such a low efficacy rate.

    The issue here regarding the term pandemic is mulitfold: first, the public perception of grave danger that gets invoked by the term tends to inspire fear in the public, second, when the WHO declares a pandemic it invokes certain treaty obligations of participating nations, which includes most of the world, and can lead to very serious consequences to those nations and individuals who do not comply, such as quarantine, forced innoculations, heavy fines, loss of jobs, and imprisonment, and third, the WHO changed their definition of pandemic just prior to declaring level 6… by dropping the morbidity and mortality portion. This is discussed in an interview that the German magazine, Spiegel, did with the epidemiologist and vocal critic Tom Jefferson and published on July 21, 2009.

    Look up D225g and also look into Norway’s outbreak. The 1918 pandemic was H1N1 that mutated with the bird flu virus to become D225G. It is no surprise that Baxter was caught in February of this year sending live H5N1 (bird Flu) to labs in 18 countries. It is also no surprise that American media is killing this story and not reporting on it. This mutation is man made and part of a bigger plan to enslave and control all people.

  31. Jaker

    Are people with symptom’s of flu/ H1N1 walking into hospital’s & doctor’s surgery’s in Canada nilly-willy. In Ireland, if you have symptom’s you ring the doctor from your home…& he then calls with Tamiflu or Relenza and gives instruction’s of dosage etc. Most people who have died here have underlying condition’s or are very young children with no immune backup in their systems. I had the vaccine myself two weeks ago & I have a respiratory illness & so far no problem. I also get the ordinary flu jab every year & I had the once in a lifetime jab against pneumonia. So, if anyone is an advert for flu vaccine’s it’s me. Lot’s of people are worrying, & I don’t know if it is worth the worry, you’re gonna’ go when your time is up, whether you like it or not. So I hope you there in Canada see a reduction soon in the number of cases, but remember hygiene like washing hands & sneezing into hankie’s/napkins& discarding same immediately will prevent it’s spread. So that’s all I can say…& remember the same number of people world wide die each year from the ordinary flu, so try not to let it frighten you out of life. Cheer’s Jaker.

    Loving the public response and mistrust of so-called experts. To be suspicious is to be alive. If there is one industry that uses fear mongering and misleading advertising, it is the pharmaceutical/vaccine producers. Government agencies that support and protect these producers, likewise promote those same products and get their livelihood from them. Like T. V. advertisements that trumpet the possible (not guaranteed) benefits of a product and whisper the lengthy list of serious side effects, this industry does not take responsibility for the damage it does. Google any BigPharma company along with “lawsuits” and you will see the perpetual litigation brought forth against them, plus the convictions and fines they pay. Don’t however, expect to see any charges or convictions for criminal negligence causing mass death, because our health officials have sign contracts giving away any legal course of action in this regard. Campaign contributions Which use to be called bribes and payolla is also an effective means to avoid prosecution for wrongful deaths. Remember, the only way to get these criminals is to not purchase their product. And keep up the fight all you amazing sceptics!!

  33. Basilios

    It is now January 2nd 2010, and The Public Health Agency of Canada’s OFFICIAL number of CONFIRMED deaths due directly to swine flu (H1N1) virus is a shocking 9. TOTAL.

    9…

    Good work on the misleading fear mongering article!

    Anyone who wants the official number, feel free to google it. A lot of the deaths are people with heart conditions, and other chronic illnesses.

    The fact is, swine flu has a LOWER mortality rate than the regular flue virus. The regular flu is more deadly !

    Get informed before you pump yourself with 3 vaccines this season. You might be saving yourself a future of unwanted side-effects, and health problems, such as auto-immune disorders, and mercury build up in your system.

  34. News Editor

    The number was valid for the weekly date range it was issued for. Nine people died during the week mentioned. Of course the number will not change until the next update.
