Church Bucks – Wingham Based Voluntary Parallel Currency for a Wealthier, Healthier, Holier Community #MoralMoney

✝️ WHAT ARE CHURCH BUCKS?

Church Bucks are a community-based, voluntary currency—similar to the Chamber of Commerce dollars of the past, or GoldBacks/GoldFoils of today. They’re not backed by royalty or risky bullion—they’re backed by something far more powerful: FAITH in your community.

Church Bucks are redeemable 1:1 with Canadian dollars, but when you use Church Bucks instead of cash, something incredible happens: the value STAYS local.

💰 WHY CHURCH BUCKS?

  • Build Local Wealth
    With Church Bucks, your money never leaves the community. It supports the people who support you—your family, friends, neighbors, and church.
  • Banks Don’t Get a Cut
    No transaction fees. No percentage skimmed by giant financial institutions.
  • Government Doesn’t Get a Cut
    With a 13% tax rate, money only needs to circulate five times before half is gone to the state. With Church Bucks, it can circulate a hundred times and still belong to the people who earned it.
  • No Forced Sharing with Bureaucrats
    If someone didn’t work for it, they don’t get a share of it. Period.

💡 CHURCH BUCKS VS. BULLION

Let’s get real for a minute…

  • Fake gold is now passing industry-standard testers. Trust in bullion? Risky.
  • Fractional gold products are based on faith in a salesperson, not in anything tangible. If they won’t buy it back when gold is high, ask yourself why.
  • Canadian currency? Backed by King Charles and Crown corporations. Need we say more?

Church Bucks are backed by you. The hard-working, value-creating people who make your community thrive.

🐄 DON’T WORSHIP THE GOLDEN CALF

When you stockpile gold and ignore your neighbors, your community, and your church, you’re investing in fear, not faith.
You’re worshipping the golden cow, not the living God.

Church Bucks are a return to real wealth—which is trust, trade, faith, and relationships.
Mental health improves when people feel connected. Financial health follows.

⚔️ A PEACEFUL PROTEST WITH EVERY PURCHASE

Every time you use Church Bucks instead of cash:

  • You opt out of a corrupt system.
  • You keep wealth circulating locally.
  • You say NO to government overreach and corporate exploitation.

It’s a peaceful but powerful “FU” to the idea that others deserve a cut of your labor when they did nothing to earn it.

🌾 FAITH IN ACTION

Church Bucks represent faith in something real:

  • Your community.
  • Your church.
  • Your shared future.

Every dollar spent in Church Bucks is a vote for sovereignty—personal, financial, and spiritual.

🙏 WHO CAN USE THEM?

Everyone.
Businesses, churches, farmers, builders, artists, and neighbors. Anyone who believes in honest trade, local value, and real relationships.

As long as we agree to:

  • Not charge or collect tax,
  • Not give a cut to anyone who didn’t earn it,
  • And to honor value with value…

We are free to rebuild a real economy, from the ground up.

🔁 THE FINAL WORD

“Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s…”
But Church Bucks? They don’t belong to Caesar.
They belong to you, your family, your church, and your Creator.

💥 CHOOSE CHURCH BUCKS.

**Stop giving away what others didn’t earn.
Start keeping value where it belongs—**in your hands, your church, and your community.

Let’s make faith-backed finance the foundation of a new local economy.
Are you in?

The “Get It Done Act” (Bill 162, 2024) – A Green Light for Government Land Grabs

Ontario’s Get It Done Act, 2024 (Bill 162) may sound like an effort to cut red tape and speed up infrastructure—but buried within its text is a dangerous expansion of government power that could obliterate private property rights across the province.

❗ What’s Hidden in Plain Sight:

 This Act quietly amends the Environmental Assessment Act to explicitly allow expropriation—government seizure of private land—before environmental reviews are complete.

In other words:

The government can now take your land first, and ask questions later—or possibly never.

⚠️ A Chilling Scenario:

  1. You own farmland, a family home, or a business.
  2. The province announces a vague infrastructure project.
  3. Without your consent—and before assessing if the project is even viable or environmentally safe—your land is expropriated.
  4. Public consultation is skipped or minimized. There is no requirement to prove necessity before the seizure.
  5. If the project changes, stalls, or is scrapped, you don’t get your land back—it’s gone. Possibly flipped to developers later.

💣 Why This Is a Massive Rights Violation:

  • Property rights are the cornerstone of a free society.
  • This bill turns that principle on its head—making every Ontarian’s land potentially temporary.
  • Environmental assessments were safeguards, meant to ensure that projects were justified, safe, and publicly reviewed. By allowing land seizures before these assessments, the government removes the only layer of accountability left.
  • It effectively revives and legitimizes the Greenbelt land swap-style corruption that caused public outcry and ministerial resignations.

👁️‍🗨️ Who’s at Risk?

  • Rural landowners
  • Farmers
  • Seniors on fixed properties
  • Small businesses
  • First Nations and environmentally protected areas

If you have land near a proposed road, transit line, or housing zone—you could be next.

🔥 Final Warning:

This is not just about “getting things done.”
It’s about **getting what they want—**your land—without your voice, consent, or recourse.
 Bill 162 erodes due process, undermines environmental protections, and sets the stage for widespread abuse.Ontario is not a dictatorship.
But if this Act is left unchallenged, it’s one giant leap toward one.

🚨WARNING: Bill 197 “Safer Roads and Communities Act” Strips More Rights Away From Ontarians 🚨

Upside down flag

Bill 197 – Safer Roads and Communities Act, 2024 contains sweeping amendments to the Highway Traffic Act of Ontario. While its stated intent is to improve road safety and crack down on impaired driving, street racing, and vehicle theft, certain clauses dramatically expand government authority—particularly in ways that could intrude onto private property and open the door to abuse.

Source: https://www.ola.org/en/legislative-business/bills/parliament-43/session-1/bill-197

Here’s a breakdown of how this bill potentially extends government authority onto private property and what risks it carries:

🔍 1. Expanded Definition of “Driver” & “Operator”

  • Clause 48 (18) redefines “driver” to include “a person who has care, charge or control of a motor vehicle while the vehicle is on or off a highway.”
  • Section 216 (8) also includes those with control of a vehicle that has “recently travelled from or off the highway.”

🚨 Danger:

These broadened definitions allow police to enforce Highway Traffic Act violations on private driveways, parking lots, and even rural or private land—not just on public roads.

This opens the door for:

  • Increased surveillance and enforcement actions without a warrant on private property.
  • Vehicle stops and document demands in places previously beyond regular traffic jurisdiction.
  • Ambiguity around “recently travelled from a highway”, which can be broadly interpreted.

🔍 2. Police Powers to Demand Documents & Stop Vehicles

  • Section 2, Clause (f) authorizes police officers to:


    “require a driver or operator of a vehicle to stop the vehicle and surrender documents.”

🚨 Danger:

This section does not restrict where this stop can occur. In combination with the expanded “driver” definition, it allows off-highway enforcement, potentially:

  • At your home, if your vehicle is idling or just parked.
  • On private roads, farms, or driveways.
  • Creating potential for abusive stops or targeted enforcement, especially where no public danger exists.

🔍 3. New Regulation-Making Powers Override the Act

  • Section 2(2):


     “In the event of a conflict between a regulation made under this section and this Act, the regulation prevails.”

🚨 Danger:

This allows Cabinet (not elected legislators) to create regulations that override the Act itself, bypassing parliamentary debate. This can be used to:

  • Expand enforcement zones without public accountability.
  • Create new vehicle classifications or obligations for private vehicle use.
  • Mandate equipment, insurance, or inspections for vehicles used on private land.

🔍 4. Indefinite Licence Suspensions Without Court Oversight

  • Several sections (e.g., 41.0.1, 41.0.2) introduce automatic, indefinite licence suspensions upon convictions, including:
    • Impaired driving causing death.
    • Vehicle theft (10, 15 years, or indefinitely for repeated offenses).

🚨 Danger:

While harsh penalties for serious crimes are understandable, automatic and indefinite suspensions without independent tribunal oversight may result in:

  • Disproportionate punishment without room for context.
  • Lifetime bans for offenses years in the past with no pathway for appeal beyond a strict 25-year benchmark.
  • Permanently affecting livelihood of individuals who may rely on vehicles for work—especially in rural Ontario.

🔍 5. Ministry Enforcement Vehicles Given Police-Like Powers

  • Section 23(d) adds “ministry vehicles” to the definition of emergency vehicles authorized to:
    • Speed
    • Stop traffic
    • Use flashing lights

🚨 Danger:

Non-police ministry staff may now act with emergency enforcement powers, with fewer checks and balances, including potential action on private property under enforcement of vehicle-related rules.

❗Summary: What This Means for Private Property Owners

Bill 197 significantly expands the Ontario government’s authority over vehicles and drivers, even when they’re on private land. It does so by:

  • Broadening definitions of driver and operator.
  • Empowering police to act beyond highways.
  • Allowing off-highway stops and document checks.
  • Granting regulation power that can override statutes.
  • Removing barriers to indefinite licence suspension.

⚠️ Dangers of Abuse:

  • Harassment of individuals on their own property.
  • Increased targeting of marginalized or rural communities.
  • Loss of due process through regulatory changes that bypass elected debate.
  • Unintended criminalization of private behavior involving vehicles not used on public roads.

WARNING: North Huron Next Target of “Strong/Dictorial Mayors Act”

WARNING: SMBH is set to expand to 169 more municipalities, including North Huron 01May2025. This was rammed through while the public was distracted with increases in taxes/tariffs. Source: https://news.ontario.ca/en/backgrounder/1005753/strong-mayor-powers-proposed-for-169-additional-municipalities

The Strong Mayors, Building Homes Act, 2022 significantly alters municipal governance in Ontario by concentrating power in the hands of mayors, particularly in Toronto and other designated municipalities. Here’s how it undermines representative democracy, expands provincial control, and creates risks for abuse:

1. Erosion of Representative Democracy

  • Veto Powers:
    • Mayors can unilaterally veto bylaws passed by city council if they believe the bylaws interfere with “provincial priorities” (e.g., housing development).
    • Council can override the veto, but only with a two-thirds majority—a high threshold that weakens checks and balances.
    • This shifts power from elected councils (representing diverse wards) to a single individual, undermining collective decision-making.
  • Control Over Budgets:
    • Mayors now propose budgets, and councils can only amend them subject to the mayor’s veto. This centralizes fiscal authority, reducing council’s traditional role in budget oversight.
  • Appointment Powers:
    • Mayors can hire/fire key municipal staff (e.g., department heads) and appoint chairs of committees/local boards, politicizing administrative roles.
    • Exemptions (e.g., clerks, police chiefs) exist, but the mayor’s influence over bureaucracy risks patronage and reduced accountability.

2. Expansion of Provincial Power Over Municipalities

  • Provincial Priorities Override Local Democracy:
    • The Lieutenant Governor (effectively the provincial cabinet) can define “provincial priorities,” allowing mayors to force council to consider matters advancing those priorities.
    • This lets the province bypass local councils by working through compliant mayors, eroding municipal autonomy.
  • Regulation by Decree:
    • The Minister can prescribe rules for mayoral powers, vacancies, and budgets, giving the province broad discretion to reshape local governance without legislative debate.
    • Regulations can be applied retroactively, further reducing transparency.

3. Risks of Abuse and Consequences

  • Authoritarian Governance:
    • Strong-mayor systems can lead to personalized rule, where dissent is marginalized. Mayors could silence opposition by firing staff or vetoing unwelcome policies.
    • Example: A mayor could veto affordable housing initiatives if they conflict with developer-friendly provincial priorities.
  • Corruption and Conflicts of Interest:
    • The Act adds conflict-of-interest rules for mayors, but the concentration of power increases temptation to favor allies (e.g., developers, lobbyists).
    • Mayors could abuse appointment powers to install loyalists in key roles.
  • Erosion of Public Trust:
    • If councils are sidelined, citizens may perceive local government as unresponsive, fueling disillusionment.
    • Low voter turnout in mayoral races (compared to council elections) exacerbates this, as mayors with weak mandates wield disproportionate power.
  • Precedent for Further Centralization:
    • This Act mirrors trends in other provinces (e.g., Quebec’s strong-mayor system) and could embolden Ontario to further weaken local democracy, such as by appointing mayors or overriding municipal bylaws outright.

Conclusion

The Act frames itself as a tool to accelerate housing development, but its real impact is to:

  1. Transfer power from councils to mayors, weakening representative democracy.
  2. Let the province control localities through “priorities” and regulations.
  3. Create risks of corruption, inefficiency, and public alienation.

While strong mayors could streamline decision-making, the lack of robust safeguards makes this a dangerous shift toward top-down governance, where local voices are subordinated to provincial and mayoral agendas. The consequences could include less accountability, more polarization, and policies that favor narrow interests over community needs.

🚨 Consumer Warning: Scam Involving American GoldBacks Targeting Seniors 🚨

BEWARE of Individuals Claiming GoldBacks Are Legal Tender in the USA

A fraudulent scheme is targeting seniors and Freedom Fighter groups in our area. A cash-only seller is going door to door and appearing at community meetings, falsely claiming that GoldBacks—a privately-issued, gold-foil currency—are legal tender in the United States.

✅ FACT: GoldBacks are not legal tender. They are not recognized by the U.S. government and cannot be used to pay debts or taxes.

⚠️ What This Seller Is Doing:

  • Claims GoldBacks are “spendable money” in the USA
  • Pressures people to trade cash for GoldBacks at inflated prices
  • Refuses to accept credit cards, checks, or give receipts
  • Offers no way to cash out or recover your money
  • Has no business card, website, or identifiable contact info
  • Exploits trust within patriotic or freedom-minded groups

❌ Why This Is a Scam:

  • You are overpaying for a product that has no guaranteed resale value
  • The seller is committing fraud by misrepresenting the product as legal tender
  • Victims are left with no recourse, no refund, and no way to spend what they were sold
  • Seniors and vulnerable citizens are being specifically targeted

✅ What You Can Do:

  • DO NOT give cash to anyone selling GoldBacks without doing proper research
  • Report suspicious activity to:
    • Your State Attorney General’s Office
    • The Federal Trade Commission at reportfraud.ftc.gov
    • Local law enforcement
  • Warn your friends, family, and neighbors, especially those in senior or church groups
  • Ask questions: If a seller won’t give you a receipt, contact info, or proof of legitimacy, walk away

🛡️ Stay Safe. Stay Informed.

GoldBacks are NOT legal U.S. currency. Don’t be fooled by flashy sales pitches or patriotic messaging—this is a scam.

If you believe you or someone you know may be a victim, contact us or your local authorities immediately. Let’s protect each other from fraud.

Shot(s) Fired – One Sent To Hospital As Wingham Sidewalk Battle Escalates 

(North Huron, On) A restaurant in the heart of Wingham is once again taking fire from North Huron staff. Hours after one of the owners of Buck & Jo’s had a confrontation with current North Huron Reeve Paul Heffer at town hall regarding crosswalks and illegal snow dumping, the restaurant had a window broken with damage consistent with a pellet gun. 

NOTE: North Huron Reeve laughed off the complaints on Friday (06 Dec) stating the sidewalks and roads are perfectly fine in Wingham, the best around in his opinion.

One Sent To Hospital

Approximately 48 hours after current Reeve Paul Heffer laughed off the safety concerns of the citizens complaining, a senior citizen slipped and fell on a neglected sidewalk breaking their hip. If the elderly gentleman survives he has a very long road to recovery. 

A broken hip can cost Ontario taxpayers from $20,000 – $45,000.

Your Rights for Citizen’s Arrest in Wingham #NWO

In Wingham, Ontario, within the Municipality of North Huron, the rules around citizen’s arrests are primarily governed by Canadian federal law, specifically the Criminal Code of Canada. Here’s how a citizen’s arrest might apply in your region and how you could justify your actions:

Legal Basis for a Citizen’s Arrest in Canada

Under Section 494 of the Criminal Code of Canada, a private citizen may arrest someone if:

  1. You find them committing an indictable offense.
    • This includes serious crimes such as assault, theft over $5,000, or actions endangering public safety.
  2. A crime is being committed on or in relation to your property.
    • Example: If someone is actively damaging or stealing from your property, you may arrest them.
  3. Reasonable grounds exist to believe the person has committed an indictable offense.
    • You must have witnessed the crime or have strong evidence supporting the belief.

Additional Conditions for Citizen’s Arrest in Ontario

  1. Immediate Action Required:
     The arrest must happen either during the commission of the crime or soon after.
  2. Involvement of Law Enforcement:
     After making the arrest, you are legally required to hand the individual over to law enforcement without delay.
  3. Proportionate Force:
     Any force used must be reasonable. Excessive force could lead to charges against you.

Legal Defenses to Justify a Citizen’s Arrest

  1. Preventing Immediate Danger:
     If the individual’s actions posed an immediate risk to lives (e.g., reckless driving, violent behavior), you can argue that intervention was necessary to prevent harm.
  2. Reasonable Grounds:
     Show that you had strong, reasonable grounds to believe the individual was committing a serious offense. Witness testimony, video evidence, or other proof can support this.
  3. Necessity Defense (Common Law):
     Claim that your actions were necessary to avoid a greater harm. In situations where lives were endangered, courts are often sympathetic to this defense.
  4. Compliance with Section 494:
     Highlight that your actions were in line with the specific requirements of the Criminal Code (e.g., you acted promptly, used reasonable force, and handed the individual to the authorities).

Example Scenario: Reckless Driving Endangering Lives

If you witness someone driving recklessly through Wingham, posing an immediate threat to pedestrians:

  1. Attempt to call 911 and report the incident to the OPP (Ontario Provincial Police).
  2. If it’s impossible to wait for police due to the imminent danger, and you manage to stop the vehicle (e.g., blocking their path), you could perform a citizen’s arrest.
  3. Notify the authorities immediately after detaining the individual.

Potential Risks and Precautions

  • Legal Risks: If you misjudge the situation or use excessive force, you could face charges such as assault or wrongful confinement.
  • Civil Liability: The arrested individual could sue you for damages if your actions are deemed excessive or unjustified.
  • Personal Safety: Confronting someone committing a crime can put you in harm’s way.

Best Course of Action

  • Always prioritize calling law enforcement first.
  • Only intervene directly if it is safe to do so and if the situation demands immediate action to prevent harm.
  • Clearly document the incident (e.g., record video or take witness statements).

Official News Alert: Wingham Closed Until Further Notice

ALERT: Wingham Shutdown Due to Unsafe Conditions – #ExtendedXmasVacation

Effective immediately, all residents and visitors are advised to avoid Wingham or remain indoors until further updates are provided by Reeve Paul Heffer (519) 357-3594.

A state of constant disrepair has made the town unsafe for pedestrian navigation.

NOTICE

  • Schools are always closed except for those that can safely get there. Children should not play in traffic, or have to walk in traffic to get to school.
  • Non-functional crosswalk signs and beepers, posing risks to pedestrians.
  • Obstructed tactile bump pads for the visually impaired.
  • Snow intentionally piled to block sidewalks.
  • No sidewalks cleared on streets running North-South, forcing pedestrians to walk in traffic.
  • Handicap Parking Spots blocked.
  • Sidewalks around handicap parking spots are blocked.
  • Increased risks of pedestrian collisions, slip-and-falls, and injuries.
  • Trails in the area are unmaintained and hazardous for use.

Urgent Context:
Ontario is experiencing an 82% increase in pedestrian fatalities, and Wingham’s current conditions are exacerbating this trend. It is not safe for residents to walk to schools, local businesses, or even traverse the town.

Stay tuned for updates and instructions on when Wingham will be deemed safe again. In the meantime, prioritize your safety and avoid unnecessary travel in the area.

UPDATE: Reeve Finally Put In Place, Staff Revolt, CAO Gone, Accounting Crisis & Taxpayers Have Money Stolen From Account – More Victims Feared

(North Huron) North Huron CAO is now gone, and countless customers of North Huron have had their accounts depleted, and in some cases emptied by North Huron. Current Reeve Paul Heffer is refusing to comment, apologize, or offering to cover all costs associated with this theft. Experts confirm that if it was not theft, it was incompetence on an unprecedented level. To find out if you have been affected or to see what compensation you are entitled, to contact Paul Heffer at (519) 357-3594 and/or [email protected] 

Parade: Still Not Our Leader

Disgraced North Huron Reeve/Mayor Paul Heffer was finally put in his place after his shocking appearance in the last parade where Citizens of good conscience refused to follow their “leader” and left a 10 minute gap in the parade as sign of respect for Heffer’s victim.

This time the reeve did not displace a Community Living member by hogging the shotgun seat in the lead firetruck. Heffer was forced to be at the very end of the parade to prevent any further protests. This way his presence wouldn’t slow the parade again.

This Man Is A Liar Posters

Town Staff are refusing to follow direction from the current reeve and refusing to cease and desist their illegal activity, and have actually increased it by intentionally dumping snow on sidewalks they have been regularly clearing for years, endangering even more lives. Several different posters have sprung up around town, the most noticeable are the “If snow has been dumped on this sidewalk in violation of Clean Yards By-law: 3.18 forcing pedestrians to walk in traffic, then this man is a Liar!“

For an update on the rapidly evolving crisis, please contact your Representative on council.
