Over the past several years we have experienced significant disruptions to our normal routines of life. In the big cities, the heavy hand of government. The ‘two weeks to flatten the curve’ turned into years with numerous stay home orders, social distancing, lockdowns of churches, face mask ‘requirements’ and ‘vaccination’ mandates. Vaccine passports, at one point it was said were required for travel between provinces and crossing the Canada-US border. Police were pulling people over on the roadways to check whether or not your reason to be out and about was considered ‘essential’. It all culminated in million-person waves of protest starting in Ottawa and spreading across the continent when truckers and farmers were joined with many of us who felt that we had already seen enough.

In that bastion of conservatism, Canada’s Alberta, several Christian pastors were being jailed for daring to open church on Sunday mornings. In Ontario, churches not submitting to the lockdown orders were fined millions of dollars while the locks on church buildings were forcibly changed by police. Eventually, the courts dismissed many charges, while permitting others to stand. Canadians who happened to be in US conservative states were shocked when they returned. Many of those taking the jabs to travel, have suffered severe adverse side effects.
For some, experiencing disruption has been the shut off of access to municipal utilities. The Agenda being followed by municipalities in the US and Canada is driven by the UN and affiliates, and it is demanding that utility meters be replaced with so-called SMART meters. These advanced data collection devices, use radio frequency transmissions to ease the collection of usage information to the agencies collecting billing data. These devices are opaque – they cannot be read like a traditional meter, but instead require a proprietary reader device which only the utilities possess and control.
Being prepared for calamity includes planning for water. At this juncture, this writer’s family is experiencing our third winter disconnected from municipal water. We did not raise a protest, rather, we decided to use this circumstance to practice our preparedness for the inevitable.
“Revolutions may come from empty stomachs within days, but almost instantaneous panic, chaos, and sheer violence will come from people driven by thirst with no water… within hours.” – The Civil Defense Manual
In this essay, I will describe how we measured and monitored water levels in storage containers that are not easily accessed or viewed. I also include a schematic for a very simple low power device which I built. But, first I will discuss water quantity requirements.
