(Natural News) Lawmakers in the Canadian parliament’s lower chamber have found out that a refund on unused ventilators is unlikely. The government operations committee of the Canadian House of Commons scrutinized the purchase of ventilators worth 700 million Canadian dollars (about US$556 million). It discovered that around 98 percent of the purchased machines were in storage, as hospitals did not need them for COVID-19 patients.
Members of the Commons’ Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates were told that only 27,025 ventilators were delivered out of a total order of 40,557 units. Of these, only about 500 ventilators were used. Despite this, Blacklocks Reporter pointed out that payment for the ventilators – now stored in a warehouse – will not be refunded.
Bloc Québécois Member of Parliament Julie Vignola questioned Public Services and Procurement Minister Anita Anand if the government would be reimbursed “at the end of the day” for the unused ventilators. The minister gave an unclear answer, saying: “We have a commitment with the manufacturers.” Unsatisfied with the answer, the MP for Beauport-Limoilou in Quebec continued to press Anand for a “yes or no” answer.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
