Paul Craig Roberts – paulcraigroberts.org Aug 29, 2025
Ivermectin has proved effective in saving the lives of stage four cancer patients. Danielle Smith is trying to protect Big Pharma profits by prohibiting its use. She even wants to criminalize the use of Ivermectin.
Will people who think they live in democracies ever understand that throughout the Western world government has been privatized. A position in government is a road to serving private interests and becoming a multi-millionaire.
How do you think the Clintons ended up with $120,000,000? From Hunter Biden’s laptop and other hard evidence we know all about Hunter and Joe Biden’s influence peddling schemes. They know about it themselves which is the reason for the preemptive pardons.
As of 2019, six years ago, there were 12 members of Congress with net worths ranging from $93,000.000 to $361,000,000, and another 38 members with net worths ranging from $11 million to $79 million. Nancy Pelosi is up there with the Clintons with a net worth of $115,000,000.
The fact that governments serve private interest is the reason no problem can be fixed. Problems are business opportunities. For example, poverty requires contractors to build public housing and provide food stamps that increase sales of food products. A contrived “energy crisis” produced ethanol, a subsidy to agri-business. Threats and conflicts require armaments. The orchestrated “Russian threat” produces an annual trillion dollar military/security budget. The list is endless.
Here is Dr. Makis describing the bought and paid for government of Alberta, Canada:

Danielle Smith — yet another over-promoted, overpaid and utterly corrupt female who belongs chained to the kitchen sink !
jewPfizer + jewModerna + their corrupted
political servants are criminal terrorist orgs !
have to be persecuted like Soros mafia clan .
Texas just made Ivermectin an over-the-counter medication.
Sloppy Reporting Truthseeker, posted without any fact or source data confirmation. The ONLY one pushing this shit is Makis; and is based entirely on his hurt feelings. I challenge anyone to find a single shred of evidence of the Alberta Gov. “outlawing” this drug. P.C Roberts completely undermined his credibility by parroting this lie; last ever PCR article i read. And any gullible clown readers who believe this crap without any effort to confirm the facts – you are also The Problem.
An intelligent person searched online to confirm or disprove this story.
What both he and I found:
Several government health care sites along with dozens of news site articles all say the same thing:
•They are telling doctors they are prohibited from prescribing ivermectin to prevent/treat covid as it is not approved in CANADA (NOT Alberta) to treat covid.
•Canada is not banning ivermectin as a treatment for parasites.
•They have never approved it to treat covid, and are actively warning people not to take veterinary grade ivermectin.
•People taking human grade ivermectin for covid, have allegedly created an ivermectin shortage, and are taking away medicine from parasite infected people.
__________
The only articles I found, making the claim of ivermectin being banned, are from or about Dr. Makis.
The author of this article seems to be obfuscating the truth, for fear porn clicks.
Verify EVERYTHING – even PREVIOUSLY trusted sites like this one.
A very inciteful commentary from Paul Craig Roberts as is usually the case. I hope as many Canadians read it as possible. Politicians have reached the most insufferable stage it is possible to get to, in Canada and many other western countries. Mr. Roberts makes the accurate statement “government has been privatized”, and gives several examples. I agree, and sure many others will likewise. Premiere Smith will have a lot to answer for as she wallows in her own corruption.
Here’s a comment found on Facebook which might clarify the Ivermectin banning.

Let’s get something sorted, shall we? I’ve included a screenshot of Dr. Makis’ falsehood here.
We can’t believe many news items:
To clarify some misinformation…
This is from UCP President Rob Smith…
I wonder if y’all can help “spread the word” on this, too.
A number of Albertans have expressed concern in the last few days about our current UCP Premier Smith government “banning” the drug ivermectin.
Apparently, a former medical professional has been propagating this fallacy on social media.
FACT: ivermectin was banned as an acceptable drug by the Kenney government during the COVID-19 pandemic. This was done in collaboration with other health services nationwide and included discussion with the federal government.
Many Albertans have continued to use ivermectin since it was banned. They have done so, however, outside prescriptions made by AHS medical professionals.
FACT: the Smith government has started the process of trying to REMOVE ivermectin from the current “banned drug” list held by AHS.
They have no idea the process or length of time it will take for this to happen. However, please rest assured that Premier Smith, Minister LaGrange and their UCP government are committed to moving ivermectin off the banned drug list, where it has been for multiple years now.
I have received multiple concerns about this in the past few days. I went to my fellow board member Patrick Malkin who, I suspect you know, works in the Premier’s Office as her Deputy Chief of Staff.
Patrick has requested additional information and will share what he can with us early this week.
Please know, however, regardless what someone says on X… the current UCP government has NOT banned ivermectin.
It’s been banned since the Kenney government.
And the Smith government is trying to UNban it.
These are FACTS.
Before Covid Ivermectin was a wonder drug for animals and humans. It was being sold at very low prices because the patents owned by the pharmaceutical giant, Merck, had long expired. By August 2020, and not in reference to Covid, there were numerous peer-reviewed articles on Pub Med (we found 41) showing its use and effectiveness for a variety of ailments. Side effects were negligible, although human doses were far less than for horses.
Its main use was a very effective antiparasitic but it was found in 2020 during Covid to be more effective at saving the lives of the seriously-suffering elderly and those with serious autoimmune problems suffering serious respiratory problems with the effects of the US Covid bioweapon virus. It was in fact similar to HCQ (Hydroxychloroquine) which was also used mainly as an antiparasitic to treat Marilia since the 1950’s. During 2020, Ivermectin was found to be more effective than HCQ to cure people seriously afflicted with serious respiratory complications and to strengthen the immune system against the virus.
In most jurisdictions in English-speaking nations (in which lying by the authorities is now an accepted way of life) physicians were forbidden starting in the later half of 2020 from prescribing either HCQ or Ivermectin even to assist patient’s with serious life-threatening symptoms. This came about after Operation Warp Speed for the crooked pharmaceutical companies to allegedly “develop” an effective vaccine against the Covid plandemic virus (which our governments had allowed to be spread), even though the actual “uninflated” risk of death in the general population was less than .009%. Before the ban, both drugs were used most effectively and many lives were saved from serious Covid symptoms. The vaccines, as we now know, did not save any lives or even affect the spread.
So what does Wikipedia (one of the leading sources of establishment lies) say about HCQ?” It says, “Hydroxychloroquine has been studied for an ability to prevent and treat coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), but clinical trials found it ineffective for this purpose and a possible risk of dangerous side effects.”
The people who used either HCQ or Ivermectin treatment protocols for serious Covid symptoms or risks had no serious side effects and were cured. Many of those who were denied these totally-proven effective protocols, actually died horrible deaths. However, their deaths were “necessary” to the criminal Covid hierarch in order to spread the fear, the lockdowns, and the demand for the alleged “experimental” mRNA vaccines. The only thing “experimental” about these spike-protein-producing mRNA vaccines was that they had not yet been used yet for mass distribution, to see how many would die from them or suffer serious disabilities. However, but the authorities did know beforehand – and before 2020 of the serious adverse effects. What they did not know was how many the vaccines would kill outright or shorten the life spans of the vulnerable. [If you think they are not tracking all of the numbers in relation to the diverse batches you are very naive and you should stop reading right now, because the truth is not for liars or imbeciles.] They knew the actual risks and and to push the crap on us they suppressed the very drugs which would have made virtually everyone “safe”, such that no one would have died who was treated in time.
For those who were paying attention to what was really going on well before the lockdowns in early 2020, they would have come across the evidence of at the 40-odd US Military athletes showing up at the Military World Games in Wuhan, China in October, 2019, with respiratory flu symptoms just like those of Covid, and uncharacteristically not placing very well in any of the competitions. A few had more severe respiratory symptoms and attended a hospital in Wuhan and were prescribed HCQ which apparently cured them.
Trump, in March of 2020, while lockdowns were being proclaimed everywhere, said that HCQ was a cure and not to worry. However by May 2020 he was proclaiming, “Operation Warp Speed” and at the same time he recommended investing in Moderna, which “coincidentally” was a company set up before any alarm of the pandemic solely to flog the mRNA Moderna vaccines for the pandemic.
Meanwhile – while all of our governments, the mainstream media, and the medial authorities were suppressing the use of HCQ and Ivermectin in 2020 based on their lies of serious side effects, and helping those with serious symptoms to DIE, the late Dr. Zev Zelenko, was saving hundreds of lives in NY State with the use of either Quercetin or HCQ treatment protocols. The Quercetin protocol was mainly a prophylactic to strengthen the immune system but was also effectively used as a cure with those with less life-threatening symptoms. The HCQ protocols replaced Quercetin for those with more serious symptoms, and a respiratory antibiotic was added for those with even more serious respiratory symptoms.
By August 2020 Dr. Zelenko was recommending Ivermectin as an even more-effective drug in the treatment protocols than HCQ. By then he had been credited with saving the lives of more than 650 people in NY State who were at death’s door from the Covid virus. Because he ignored and thwarted the criminal authorities but did get his information out over the internet, many physicians did likewise and likely thousands of lives were saved. Certainly, many people like myself who had serious symptoms in 2021 who could not get either drug through a physician had to turn to other sources for the drugs, and as a result recovered very quickly. I still use Ivermectin whenever any flu symptoms come on. My wife who is a retired physician and has been on heavy-duty cancer drugs for the past 20 years is using Ivermectin, Vitamins C & D3, to strengthen her immune system. For all of those using the drug we have not heard of any adverse side effects.
Although, this is not recommendation, before the suppression Ivermectin was being held out in many of the peer-reviewed articles as a “wonder drug”.
As for the Premier of Alberta, Danielle Smith, I had high hopes for her and her government, but it turns out she as much of a fake as every other Premier of any other province in Canada, all whom have defied the the best interests of the people as well as the constituional authority of their own provinces over all health issues. They are all accomplices in crimes of supplanting good medicine and proper treatment protocols with the false jurisdiction of the top-down Covid authorities and the drug industries peddling their toxic vaccines.
For these people, whether liars of just ignorant … mercy? No, no mercy … none whatever.

Western nations demand mass deportations.
Native populations are rising, nationalism surging across borders and even in Australia.
Globalists are fast losing their control.
What the masses taotally fail to understand, is the blunt fact that ALL premiers and top “politician’s” are lawyers, i.e. BAR members, i.e. FORIEGN AGENTS without any lawful or legal standing to do anything what so ever. It is Absolutely surreal that people have not clued in, after well over 100 years of the masonic bullshit we refer to as “democracy”. God, people really are retarded..
in germany probably its not forbidden
by politicians (they are cowards anyway).
but all doctors know that jewpharma makes
them hell when they prescribe + their job
will be finished . I think specialy with
massimigration from tropics it is the ideal
remedy against worms + other parasites .
here you get it only from veterinary if your
dog has worms . capt ajit vadakayil knows
that it is very good + extract from indian
Neem tree .
is this serious science going on ? I think not .
they are all too much compartmented . they should
also investigate together with embalmers what they
find on strange cables in arterias + venes of corpses
together with people like Dr Robert O Young DSc and
the nanographen 5G sensibility in the Pfizer/Moderna
vaccines . there is no trustworthy government in the
whole world . we are ruled by taxparasite scum !
