In a place far, far away
Poor protesters😢 They can't demonstrate at hospitals, legislator's homes, memorial services (see Westboro Baptist Church, Topeka, KS). What are they supposed to do with all that angst???
Protest against vaccine mandates at Kelowna Remembrance Day gathering was 'a step too far,' RCMP say

Like I said this is so sad.

Mounties in Kelowna, B.C., are investigating after dozens of people protesting vaccine mandates disrupted an informal Remembrance Day gathering at the city's cenotaph on Thursday.

RCMP say when officers arrived on the scene at about 10:55 a.m. local time, they found between 75 and 100 protesters interrupting the proceedings.

"Kelowna RCMP officers support a person's or groups' right to protest, but when they choose to willfully interrupt the assembly of citizens at a Remembrance Day ceremony, this is a step too far," Insp. Adam MacIntosh said in a news release.

This is what eventually happens when you buy a chocolate bar for the kid who throws a temper tantrum in the checkout aisle at the supermarket.

There are times and places to protest. This was neither. I'm reminded of the protest on Donald Trump's inauguration day. There was a huge crowd protesting outside the US Consulate on University Street - on a Saturday, when there was no one inside.

Lets float an idea just to stir the pot.
Covid is costing a ton of mostly public money to fight.

Lets say we figure out a date when most people could have been double vaxxed. Make that the base line.

Then when you send in your 2021 tax return you include proof you were vaxxed before that date.

If you cant show vax proof by that date you are accessed a surtax that is expressly collected to fund medical facility increased costs to deal with COVID.

Because by now this is very largely a pandemic of the unvaccinated, and while kids 5-12 have not yet got the shot are a bunch of covid cases, they are largely not the ones in the hospital. .

I know the above would never fly in Canada, but it was just me musing of a way to let the unvaxed put their money where their mouth is.

the line never got finished. It should continue with …..

“as long as it is done it a respectful And responsible manner. “

Which this was not.

Just a bunch of self-centered, inconsiderate jack asses. I hope their friends and family shame and shun them for a very very long time.

Considering the anti-vaxxers make up just 10% of the population, they're not going to get much sympathy from the majority of Canadians. Especially when they pull a stunt like that. What a bunch of assholes.

Why stop there
Let's do the same for anyone who is overweight as weight increases chances of heart disease and diabetes

Any risky activity, same thing. Play soccer ? Risk of injury jack that tax up.
Ride a motorcycle ? Oh boy that's pretty dangerous

Let's monitor what you eat, do, where you go etc

For people with your line if thinking may I suggest this place of utopia , it's called North Korea, give it a shot

Assuming you mean the freedoms that eventually became the Charter, clearly those that all fought and died did so for Section 1 of that Charter as well as all other sections. Not JUST Section 2.

It’d be dishonourable to the dead who fought for Canada to ignore our own Constitution, especially when dealing with these idiot losers.
