Dear Readers,

As you know, I am on a short holiday. However, I am aware that the Taliban has taken over Afghanistan. I am watching desperate Afghans attempting to leave their country, and it saddens me enormously. If allies of countries that fought the Taliban are not evacuated, they may be tortured and executed.

United States President Joe Biden and many Americans believe that there is no good time to leave Aghanistan. They are quite right. It has been a twenty-year war and many have died or been disabled. Hostilities could continue for several more decades.

It also saddens me that human life is currently threatened by persons who look upon Covid-19 as a conspiracy. How can the pandemic end if people refuse to wear a mask and also oppose vaccination? These individuals are fuelling the pandemic, but do not know they are.

I am still investigating the Quebec Act of 1774. My findings are that the Constitutional Act of 1791 did not void the Quebec Act of 1774. If it had, the Seigneurial System would have been abolished at a much earlier date than 1854.

Human beings have been their own worst enemies for millenia.

—ooo—

Love to everyone 💕
