Nicole Maurier for Abigail
Day 2 · September 9, 2026 · 0:29:38
Key points Nicole Morier testifies on behalf of her only child, Abigail Morier, who died at 24, and whose family doctor recorded her death as a vaccine injury on the federal VISP assessment. She describes Abigail as a healthy, athletic cardiology technologist who graduated with distinction and worked at the Red Deer hospital cardiac unit. She says Abigail feared the shots and had drug hypersensitivity, and that AHS mandates in September 2021 forced vaccination to keep her job after medical exemptions were denied. She says Abigail received two Pfizer doses in September and October 2021 to comply with employment standards. She says that in March 2023 Abigail was diagnosed with an extremely rare, rapidly growing NUT carcinoma that doubled in size within two weeks. She recounts Abigail's rapid deterioration, collapsed lungs, plummeting platelets, a 24-hour nosebleed, and death only six weeks after diagnosis on May 2, 2023. She says Abigail's doctor later admitted advising the shots as safe and effective and said physicians were threatened with loss of license for granting exemptions.
Speaker 1
0:02 So our next witness is Nicole Morier. 0:07 Nicole, can you take the Bible which has been handed to you in your right hand? 0:16 Nicole Morier, do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you God? Speaker 1
0:26 Now, you are the mother of Abigail Morier. Speaker 1
0:32 And Abigail was your only child. Speaker 5
0:34 That's correct, yeah. Speaker 1
0:37 And Abigail's general practitioner, her family doctor that was her doctor from birth, agrees that Abigail died of a vaccine injury. Speaker 5
0:49 Yes, that's what she reported on the federal VISP medical assessment report. Speaker 1
0:58 Can you tell us about your daughter? Speaker 5
1:01 Yeah, so Abigail, I called her my earth angel. 1:06 She was my only child, and she was my entire world, my everything. Speaker 1
1:17 Now, she was 24 when this happened, right? Speaker 5
1:20 Yes, she was 24, so... 1:24 to talk about her. 1:26 She loves sport. 1:28 She was very adventurous. 1:29 She played every sport imaginable, anything from water skiing, softball. 1:34 She played competitive soccer. 1:36 She was on the travel team. 1:37 She was the captain, sorry, of the team. 1:47 She danced, did volleyball, golfing. 1:54 I mean, you just name it. 1:55 She took on any sport, any adventure, rock climbing. 2:00 She worked out at the gym. 2:01 She was very healthy and she was into health and eating well. 2:06 fitness. 2:07 She took very good care of herself. 2:10 Also mentally as well. 2:12 You know, she took a lot of personal development courses as a young person. 2:16 She wanted to exercise her mind and her spirituality. 2:21 She was very intuitive and she had a big heart. 2:23 She had a heart of gold. 2:26 And she had a vibrant present about her. 2:28 She walked into a room. 2:30 She had these beautiful big emerald green eyes and a smile that lit up an entire room. 2:36 And she had this long black hair. 2:38 And she looked like an angel. 2:40 She really did. 2:40 A beautiful earth angel. 2:43 But she was so humble and kind and so caring and giving. 2:48 And she was an absolute attribution in our world. 2:53 And 2:54 She became a cardiology technologist and she was absolutely brilliant. 2:59 She graduated with distinction and she was nominated student of the year with the Steinberg College. 3:07 She worked at the hospital in Red Deer. 3:12 They offered her a position in the cardiology unit. 3:16 Before she even passed her course, she was working there doing her preceptorship. 3:20 They saw something really special in her, and they offered her a position based on the conditions of her completing her exam. 3:29 And she did. 3:30 She passed that exam with flying colors. 3:33 And I never found out about how well she did in school until after she passed away because I got to see her final marks. 3:42 She got A pluses all across the board. 3:45 She was actually mentoring some of her colleagues in the program because it's a very difficult program. 3:52 And she would get on the phone and she would help them and mentor them through the course. 3:57 She just knew the material so well. 4:00 And she was so loved at her work, she didn't even get to fulfill a career of two years. 4:09 And in Red Deer, the entire staff at the cardiac unit in the hospital 4:17 That hospital unit was closed down for the afternoon and Healthy Hearts was closed down the day of Abigail's service. 4:24 That's how much she made an impact in not even two years of employment. 4:29 There is a cardiologist that spoke at her service and he said, she saw things that I don't even understand how she knew. 4:39 And she was saving people and saving lives. 4:43 And one of those patients was actually her grandpa. 4:46 He's still alive today. 4:47 He's 92. 4:48 And 4:51 he went into the cardiac unit in the hospital for a checkup. 4:56 He had a pacemaker and Abigail saw something and she pointed it to the cardiologist. 5:02 And he said, my goodness, we need to get this patient in here right away. 5:06 And he was put on some medication and she was just incredible. 5:10 Just a 5:11 incredible spirit. 5:12 And I want to say one more thing about her is her favorite number was 13. 5:18 And I want you to observe the number that I'm sitting in front of right now. 5:23 So she has been an absolute angel and guiding me since this whole process. 5:31 And she, I call her my angel of truth and awareness. 5:34 And I know that there's no accident why I'm here today. 5:39 It's because 5:41 She is absolutely guiding. 5:43 And the message that I got from her is not for her, but for others that could potentially be harmed. 5:52 And that's ultimately who she was. Speaker 1
5:55 And some parents and children aren't close to each other, but you and Abigail were like sisters, weren't you? 6:04 And she lived with you and your mother. Speaker 5
6:07 Yeah, the three of us lived together for many years. 6:13 And yes, so every year the three of us went on girls trips together. 6:19 We actually called ourselves the Three Musketeers as well. 6:24 And we were very close, very bonded. 6:28 And often people would think that my mom was both of our moms. 6:33 They thought that Abigail and I were sisters. 6:35 We had a very playful relationship. 6:38 We joked. 6:40 It was funny. 6:41 She was so witty and she could come up with one-liners and she had wittiness right in her bones and she made me laugh all the time. 6:52 And I always said to her that as long as we had each other, we'd be able to navigate in this world. 6:57 And so I lost a big piece of my navigation. Speaker 3
7:08 And so 7:10 Now instead of calling her my earth angel, I call her my guardian angel. Speaker 5
7:16 And tomorrow, September 10th, is her birthday. Speaker 3
7:20 She would have been 28 tomorrow. Speaker 5
7:24 And I should be at home making plans with her and our family. 7:30 And instead I'm here talking about her in a past tense, and it makes no sense to me. Speaker 1
7:44 Can you share with us Abigail's health journey? Speaker 1
7:50 Can you share with us the journey she took with the vaccine? Speaker 5
7:57 So there's a lot of really critical things to understand about Abigail and her health journey. 8:04 The first thing is, is in June of 2021, 8:09 The vaccines weren't mandated at that time, but there was the restrictions of not being able to go in restaurants or travel, these sorts of things. 8:21 And her and I talked extensively about that process. 8:25 And she said, Mom, it's okay. 8:27 You know, I don't need to go out with my friends and go to concerts. 8:31 And she said, I feel in my heart that if I was to get these shots, something really bad would happen to me. 8:39 She had that intuition and she also has drug hypersensitivity, which is a big part. 8:46 And I share that experience with her as well. 8:51 And so I said to her at that time, Abigail, you can never get these shots. 8:55 And she said, well, I'm not going to. 8:58 She was hired with AHS. 9:01 Officially in June of 2021. Speaker 1
9:04 Which is Alberta Health Services. Speaker 5
9:05 Alberta Health Services. 9:06 I promise. 9:07 In June of 2021. 9:09 And she worked on the cardiology unit in the hospital. 9:14 And shortly after that, she started working. 9:19 And they had a policy in place that if an employee woke up and they had flu or cold-like symptoms, that they had to go get a PCR test. 9:29 So August 23rd, she woke up. 9:31 She felt flu-like symptoms. 9:34 She went and got a PCR test. 9:37 And on August 26th, that came back that she tested positive for COVID. 9:43 And when I talked to her, I said, well, how are you feeling? 9:46 She said, well, I'm fine. 9:47 Like, I'm, you know, I'm sick. 9:49 But she said, I'm fine and I'm getting through it. 9:52 And I wasn't concerned about her at all, in fact. 9:56 And I kind of said to her in a light way, I said, well, at least you have natural immunity. 10:01 And I said, that's really good for you and for your patients. 10:04 It'll protect you and them. 10:06 And she said, yeah. 10:07 And so she was resting well. 10:09 And then September 1st, she got the letter from her employer, AHS, and they enforced the mandates. 10:18 And that's when everything changed. 10:21 And it happened so quickly. 10:22 So in order for her to keep her job, she had to have what they would call fully vaccinated, which is two shots by October 15th. 10:31 So there was really no time to think. 10:34 And so I suggested that she ask her employer for a medical exemption. 10:40 She had some genuine concerns about getting the shots. 10:44 She went to the HR department and she asked for a medical exemption and they denied her that. 10:50 And they said, we're not giving out medical exemptions. Speaker 1
10:52 And Nicole, we're, we have short time. 10:55 And so you're giving us some more detail than you need. 10:58 And I just, I know there's some more important bits that I'd rather you focus on. Speaker 1
11:01 So can we truncate that a little bit? Speaker 5
11:04 Okay. 11:05 So, um, 11:06 Yeah, it's such a big story, so I'll move fast. 11:10 She then went to her medical doctor, asked for a medical exemption, and she was denied as well. 11:20 So at that time, Abigail's doctor told her that it was in her best interest to get the shots, that they were safe and effective, and to go ahead. 11:32 And she trusted her doctor. 11:33 That was her lifelong doctor. 11:35 And that ultimately sealed Abigail's fate and her decision. 11:40 So on September 15th, she got her first Pfizer shot in 2021. 11:46 And her second shot to comply to the employment standards, October 15th, 2021. 11:52 About seven months after that, she started feeling unwell. 11:56 She was nauseous, just generally couldn't pinpoint what was happening. 12:00 Those symptoms progressed. 12:02 And then in March 16th of 2023, she had issues with swallowing. 12:09 And she went to a walk-in clinic and they ordered an endoscopy, which is a procedure they put a scope down your throat. 12:18 And on March 19th, 12:20 She was in so much pain, so uncomfortable. 12:24 She phoned my mom. 12:25 I was working that day, and she said, Grams, you need to come and pick me up. 12:29 Something really bad is happening. 12:32 Something is really wrong. 12:33 They took her to eMERGE. 12:35 She was put into the back room right away. 12:38 She had extreme pain in her right lung. 12:42 It was shooting up her neck into her head. 12:45 And 12:46 The ER doctor thought maybe she had mild pneumonia, possibly a blood clot in her right lung. 12:52 They did a CT scan, which revealed that she was basically full of cancer. 12:59 And she had a tumor in her right lung. 13:05 She was 23 years old. 13:07 She never smoked. 13:09 Her lower lobe and her middle lobe of her lung were both collapsed. 13:14 And it was causing her lung to consistently fill up with fluid. 13:19 And it would fill up with a liter of fluid. 13:21 So you imagine a liter of fluid sitting, Abigail was a small person, sitting inside a collapsed lung. 13:29 How painful that would be, along with a tumor. 13:32 She had a tumor in the middle of her chest area. 13:35 It was so large that it was obstructing her cardiac system. 13:40 Her heart, all the valves were being pushed over to the left side of her body. 13:46 She had enlarged lymph nodes all throughout her body. 13:49 She had two in her neck that were so large that they were threatening to either cut off her ability to swallow or to breathe. 13:59 She had numerous health issues throughout her care in the hospital. 14:04 She was transferred between two hospitals, Red Deer and Calgary. 14:08 She had numerous specialists. 14:10 She had hematologists, cardiologists, pulmonologists. 14:14 She had a team of cardiologists, and nobody understood what was going on with her. 14:22 One of the oncologists said to me, I've never seen anything like this, especially in someone so young. 14:29 They couldn't understand the rate of the growth of her cancer. 14:35 The tumor in her chest disappeared. 14:37 grew in just, it doubled in size in just two weeks. 14:42 The oncologist explained to me that this is something, this tumor and this growth is something that they would normally see in a cancer patient over a 10 year time span. 14:52 They were seeing this growth in two weeks. 14:55 She was diagnosed with an extremely rare cancer. 15:00 The chances of getting this type of cancer is one in multi millions and millions of people. 15:07 It was an extraordinary cancer on top of a very rare cancer. 15:11 It's called nut carcinoma. 15:15 From the time that she was diagnosed to the time she passed, it was only six weeks. 15:20 She deteriorated very rapidly. 15:24 She went from having normal ECGs to abnormal ECGs. 15:29 Blood work went crazy. 15:31 She was 15:32 Near the end of life, they had to start doing platelet blood transfusions because her platelets dropped so low. 15:40 And normal platelets are between 150 and 450, and hers dropped to a level 6. 15:48 She was at extreme risk of internal bleeding, of having a stroke. 15:54 Any sort of surgery at that point was completely off the charts. 15:58 The last weekend of her life, she was transferred back to Calgary Foothills by her oncologist who said, you need to come back. 16:06 They transported her in an ambulance. 16:09 They said, we think you'll get better care here. 16:13 She became extremely bloated during that weekend. 16:16 She looked like she was five months pregnant. 16:19 I kept questioning what was going on with her. 16:22 Saturday afternoon, she developed a nosebleed and her nose bled for 24 hours. Speaker 3
16:30 And I kept saying to them, you need to do something. 16:35 You need to help her. 16:40 And they finally sent someone up, a specialist. 16:45 And they pulled a massive blood clot out of her nose with some forceps and some suction. Speaker 5
16:53 And she was coughing up massive blood clots because of the blood she was swallowing. 16:59 And she had a vessel that was very prominent and bleeding. 17:05 Because her platelets were so low, her blood wouldn't clot. 17:11 And so they cauterized the vessel and they put gauze up into her nose. Speaker 3
17:19 And she was on oxygen and she was on nasal prongs. 17:26 And they couldn't use the nasal prongs anymore. 17:29 And so they put the mask on her and she didn't like it because she couldn't breathe. Speaker 2
17:40 She kept pulling it off. 17:44 And I kept putting it on and she kept pulling it off. Speaker 3
17:49 And I sat at her bed and I held the mask out from her face. 17:57 Because I would do anything for her. 17:59 I would just sit there and hold my arm up because I wanted her to get the oxygen. 18:07 And she became so unwell that weekend. Speaker 5
18:10 She came very quiet, almost non-responsive, didn't eat a lot, didn't say a lot. 18:18 I tried to get her in the shower. 18:20 That was impossible. 18:23 And on May 1st, they administered two rounds of chemo and that proved to be all that her body could handle. 18:34 She went into a state of metabolic acidosis and all her healthy organs literally started to shut down and fail one by one. Speaker 3
18:46 And she suffered immensely and she fought so hard. Speaker 5
18:51 And about midnight that night, she went unconscious. 18:55 I thought she was sleeping. 18:57 They tried to sternum rub her. 18:58 They couldn't wake her up. 19:00 They call it a death coma. Speaker 3
19:03 And so I crawled into bed with her. 19:07 And I snuggled with her. 19:08 And I rubbed her hair in her ears. 19:13 And I told her I loved her. 19:16 And I could tell she was getting near the end of her life. Speaker 5
19:22 because of her breathing. 19:23 I watched my dad and my grandma pass, so I recognized the breathing pattern. Speaker 3
19:30 And I was singing to her lullaby, and it was so painful that I just buried my head into her chest, because I couldn't watch it anymore. 19:43 I just felt so helpless. 19:49 And about 9.30 on May 2nd, she took a breath in and a breath out. Speaker 5
19:55 And that was it. 19:56 And I laid in bed with her until 2.30 that afternoon. 20:01 And I told that hospital I wasn't leaving without my daughter. 20:06 We had to make special arrangements for a funeral home in Red Deer to drive to Calgary and pick her up. Speaker 3
20:15 And after she died... 20:18 I got to brush her hair and I wiped her nose. 20:25 I said, please take the stuff out of her nose. 20:30 And I wiped the blood off her nose and I brushed her hair and they put her in a body bag and they zipped her up. Speaker 2
20:40 And I couldn't believe what happened. 20:48 And that's ultimately how she left this world. Speaker 3
20:57 Suffering and in a lot of pain. 21:00 And for what? Speaker 5
21:04 For a virus that has a 99% survival rate. 21:09 For something that she got when your immune system is intact and you're young and healthy, you just get over it. 21:16 Your body knows what to do. Speaker 3
21:21 All because of a mandate. Speaker 1
21:26 I'm going to have David bring up some photos. 21:32 So can you tell us about this photo? Speaker 5
21:35 That's her graduation photo. 21:39 So she graduated as a Cardio Tech in May of 2021. 21:44 And we got Abigail dressed. 21:46 She had a friend who was a photographer. 21:48 And 21:50 We went out and we took photos and there was a field and we stopped and that's Abigail standing in the field. Speaker 3
22:01 She was so proud. Speaker 2
22:03 She was so intelligent. 22:09 So robbed. Speaker 1
22:13 David, can we go to the next photo please? 22:15 Can you tell us about this photo? Speaker 5
22:19 Abigail had a group of friends and they were called the Girl Gang. 22:22 There were seven of them. 22:24 Now there's six. 22:26 But this is Abigail's last photo of her last birthday. 22:30 So she turned 24. 22:33 September 10th, 2022. 22:35 This was her last birthday. 22:37 I could have never imagined. 22:39 She wanted balloons for her birthday. 22:42 And so we constructed these wood pillars here and we hung up these 22:47 the happy birthday, and this was out at my acreage, and she had her friends over, and they sat outside and had a little teas and wines, and it was so special. 23:00 I could have never imagined that that would be her last birthday. 23:05 She looked so healthy and vibrant there. Speaker 1
23:07 David, can we go to the next? 23:10 Tell me about this photo. Speaker 5
23:12 So this is her in the... Did we miss one? Speaker 1
23:17 Okay, no, this is fine. 23:18 Go ahead. Speaker 5
23:18 This is her in the Red Deer Hospital. 23:21 You can tell she's lost a lot of weight. 23:24 I think she went down. 23:25 She was about 100 pounds when she passed away. 23:30 But this is her little portable oxygen tank. 23:34 And every day, her and I would go for a little walk down the hallway. 23:38 And she would do that. 23:42 And she felt so proud. 23:45 And I remember... 23:48 A few days after this photo was taken, it was the last time I walked the hallway with my daughter, and we hooked arms together, and she pushed her little oxygen tank, and she was so proud, and she'd go back, and she'd do little stretches at her bed. Speaker 1
24:02 Can you give us the next photo? 24:07 Tell us about this photo. Speaker 5
24:10 So this photo is taken on April 30th, so... 24:16 It was two days before she passed away. 24:18 And you can see this is where she has the mask oxygen on. 24:24 So that's after she had the 24-hour nosebleed. 24:28 And you can see her stomach is very bloated there. 24:31 She looks pregnant, which she wasn't. 24:34 She was just really bloated. 24:38 But that's how quickly she deteriorated. Speaker 4
24:40 Can we have the next photo? Speaker 5
24:47 So this here, because her lung kept filling up with fluid, they decided, the pulmonologist decided it was best, rather than aspartating the fluid out with a big needle, to put a chest tube in there. 25:05 So that chest tube was inserted, and every few days, they connect that with a little container system, and it has like a pump. 25:15 And 25:16 fluid comes through that tube when it's connected and it goes into a canister. 25:23 And that's one of the things that she would get really anxious with that procedure. 25:28 So they would have to give her medication like an anxiety pill. 25:36 And we would play music and that's my mom's hands there. 25:40 But my mom and I would sit beside Abigail and we'd hold her hands. 25:44 Well, she was getting this done because it made her very nervous. Speaker 1
25:49 Can we go to the next photo? 25:51 Tell us about this photo. Speaker 5
25:53 So that's just a distinction of how quickly she changed. 25:59 That photo on the right was taken in December of 2022. 26:04 There was MMA fights in Red Deer, and Abigail was asked to be one of the ring girls that walked. 26:13 around with the numbers. 26:15 And that photo was taken in December of 22. 26:20 And the one on the left is taken four months later in April of 2023. 26:27 So that's how quickly her cancer progressed. Speaker 1
26:31 And we're short on time, but I wanted to ask, you had a conversation with Abigail's doctor who told her to get vaccinated. 26:38 Can you quickly tell us about that? Speaker 5
26:41 So after Abigail passed, I had a friend message me and telling me about her own daughter who was diagnosed with a rare lymphoma cancer. 26:54 And she said that she was filing with the VIS program. 26:58 And she said that just in four weeks, there was five other young people between 20 and 30 that were diagnosed with 27:07 on that same unit. 27:08 She said, you got to see this. 27:10 It's unreal. 27:10 She said the cancer unit's full of young patients. 27:14 And that's when I realized that this was something phenomenal. 27:19 And it's astonishing how many people have contacted me about their very young children having stomachs removed and all sorts of cancers. Speaker 1
27:28 Nicole, the conversation I was... Speaker 5
27:31 Okay. 27:32 And then back to the doctor. 27:33 So I, in order to file with the VIS program at the time, you needed a doctor to complete a medical assessment form. 27:41 So I made an appointment with her doctor. 27:44 And I went in and I sat down and I told her that I brought in the paperwork for her to complete. 27:55 And she didn't hesitate at all. 27:57 And she completed those documents, so the federal VISP medical assessment documents. 28:03 And under the adverse events, she wrote in, 28:08 net carcinoma post COVID-19 vaccination. 28:12 She also made additional notes that Abigail was mandated by her employer. 28:16 And when she received the shots. Speaker 1
28:18 But where I'm going, when I'm going to need to talk about is why she told Abigail to get vaccinated. Speaker 1
28:24 And we're just, we're out of time. Speaker 5
28:25 Okay. 28:26 So very quickly, when I talked to her doctor and I said, I'm aware that Abigail asked for a medical exemption and you denied her that medical exemption. 28:38 And I said to her, you told her it was safe and effective without having the science or information. 28:44 She said to me, yes, you're right, I did. 28:48 And the important thing she said is what you need to understand is that we were threatened by our associations, that if we gave out medical exemptions for the mask or for the COVID-19 vaccinations, that we would lose our license and our job. 29:05 And so that is ultimately why doctors fell lockstep, because they weren't just threatened with their job, but with their license. 29:16 And that's ultimately what happened in Abigail's situation. Speaker 4
29:24 Cole, I just want to thank you for sharing your story.
