"1.4 Purposes of the National Citizens Inquiry...
1.4.3. To receive and evaluate testimony from medical, legal, scientific, and other relevant experts concerning the governments‘ pandemic measures and strategy, what information was known or knowable by governments, and what, if any, alternative approaches could have been taken...

Over 900 members of the public (lay witnesses) applied to testify. One hundred forty-seven expert witnesses applied or were nominated to provide testimony (some were nominated more than
once).
Approximately 300 members of the public testified at the hearings...
1.13. Conclusions...
[T]he administrative state... relied on poor modelling and statistics full of omissions while ignoring scientific knowledge and understandings. The administrators also dismissed the wisdom of true experts who have credentials considerably above the pretended expertise of technocrats who systematically censored any dissenting voices threatening their usurped authority.
This is best illustrated by the numerous accounts of ignorance of epidemiology; their ineffective, unjustifiable non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs); their willful ignorance of state-of-the-art medical practice; and last but not least, their superficial knowledge of the intricacies of the immune system...

Many of the testimonies were heartbreaking, shocking, and often terrifying. Over the 24 days of hearings, witness testimonies provided an overall sense of how Canada has been transformed, by the governments’ actions to address the pandemic...
Based on the biased and inaccurate propaganda being presented to the public, the notion of lockdowns seemed logical and justifiable to curb the rapid transmission of the virus. Moreover, because early effective treatments were suppressed in favour of new experimental genetic therapy vaccines, the need for non-pharmaceutical interventions appeared to be necessary.
Testimony from experts confirmed that by late March of 2020, the government already knew the true nature of COVID-19. They knew that it primarily affected the elderly with serious comorbidities, and they knew it was not unusually deadly or virulent...
Thousands of people lost their lives due to fear, loneliness, depression; the postponement or lack of medical care; or from adverse reactions to an experimental biologic injection.
People were so terrified by the government propaganda that they turned on each other; friends, families, and communities were torn apart. The government dehumanized large identifiable groups and, in so doing, encouraged a toxic and dangerous environment. As a result, the incidence of suicide, violence, and despair increased to unprecedented levels."
