Buying Influence the Gates' Way

In this posting, I want to look at the relationship between one of the world's largest purveyors of vaccines and the Canadian government.  While this is just a single example of the powers that control the world of vaccines, they provide us with a roadmap for what lies ahead as the COVID-19 pandemic winds on.

On May 1, 2020, Canada's Prime Minister and world's biggest selfie fan Justin Trudeau proudly tweeted this:

If you click on the tweet, this is what you will end up seeing:

While you might not be aware of it, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation pledged $750 million to set up the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization or GAVI Alliance (GAVI), a public-private partnership, in 1999 as shown here:

Here is GAVI's raison d'etre:

"As part of its mission to save lives, reduce poverty and protect the world against the threat of epidemics, GAVI has helped vaccinate more than 760 million children in the world’s poorest countries, preventing more than 13 million deaths.

By improving access to new and under-used vaccines for millions of the most vulnerable children, the Vaccine Alliance is transforming the lives of individuals, helping to boost the economies of low-income countries and making the world safer for everyone."

Here is a graphic from the GAVI website showing its funding partnerships:

Here is a screen capture from GAVI's Funding webpage showing its major donors going back to 2010:

Note that the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation donated the following:

2000 to 2010 - $1.233 billion or 29% of total donations

2011 to 2015 - $1.350 billion or 18% of total donations

2016 to 2020 - $1.561 billion or 17% of total donations

That's a total of $4.044 billion over the past two decades.  Over the same timeframe, the Canadian government has donated $881 million or between 3 and 7 percent of total donations and the United Stats government has donated $2.470 billion or between 10 and 15 percent of total donations.

Now, let's look at how GAVI has been active in Canada.  According to the Canadian government's lobbying website, GAVI has registered as a lobbyist as shown here:

Here is a screen capture showing how much funding the Canadian government has provided to GAVI in the year ending December 31, 2018:

Here is a screen capture showing that GAVI has met twice with Canadian government officials during January 2020:

Here is a screen capture showing some of GAVI's meetings with Canadian government officials between March 2018 and June 2019:

Here is a complete list of meetings with multiple meetings being held on days that appear more than once:

As you can see, GAVI has been very busy lobbying the Canadian government over the past two years.  As such, and with the Gates/Trudeau meeting in mind, it should not be terribly surprising that Trudeau announced this about a vaccine and the end of the lockdown on April 9, 2020:

As an aside, let's look at GAVI's involvement with the political community in the United States.  GAVI Alliance has spent the following on annual lobbying in the United States:

Here are the issues GAVI has lobbied on behalf of:

Let's close this posting with one additional government connection to GAVI Alliance.  In February 2019, the United Kingdom government announced the following:

The United Kingdom government has donated a total of $4.893 billion to GAVI Alliance since 2000.

The connections between Bill Gates, his family foundation and his funding of the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization/GAVI Alliance and governments, particularly Canada's, clearly show us his agenda for the COVID-19 pandemic and how he has access to the highest levels of government, allowing him to pitch his pro-vaccine solutions as the only option for the world's diseases to our elected decision makers.  Let's all just bend over and become lab rats for Bill Gates, shall we?

Addendum

In his daily press briefing on May 12, 2020, Justin Trudeau announced Canada's $790 million pledge toward vaccine development through none other than the Global Alliance for Vaccine Innovation (GAVI) as you can see here.  Apparently, lobbying really does pay off when your surname is Gates.
