Lake Ontario's name comes from the Wyandot word Ontarí'io, which is typically translated as "beautiful lake". The Kanienʼkéha called it Katarokwi.
Samuel de Champlain called it Lac de St. Louis.
The name Lacus Ontario was first recorded in 1660 by Francis Creuxius.

Let me be clear:
This isn’t bullying. This is public health education.
This is science.
This is fact-checking dangerous misinformation from someone who now holds power over our nation’s health policies.
Silencing doctors who speak out is not safety—it’s censorship.
I will NOT be silenced.

There is no “debate” about fluoride in toxicology, medicine or science. I don’t think anyone who is capable of basic critical thinking has any problem understanding. These freaks could just not buy toothpaste with fluoride but instead they very badly want to make toothpaste inaccessible to everybody

This adds to the literature showing restrictive abortion laws increase infant mortality. Don’t let them lie about being “pro-life” when their policies literally kill women and children.

We could not become like God, so God became like us.
God showed us how to heal instead of kill, mend instead of destroy, love instead of hate, live instead of long for more.
When we nailed God to a tree, God forgave.
And when we buried God in the ground, God got up.

RFK believes that he is one of the genetic elect and that it is a violation of the natural order to either impose on the genetic elect with public health OR prevent nature from taking its course with those who are predestined to biological damnation.
The U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services has repeatedly claimed: “If you’re healthy, it’s almost impossible to die from an infectious disease in modern times.”
That is dangerously false.
