Canada ignores COVID restrictions for pro-Hamas protests
American Thinker ^ | 30 May, 2021 | Andrea Widburg

They’re doing in May 2021 what America did in May 2020 – substituting the “political method” for the “scientific method” that led to the modern era.

May and June 2020 in America witnessed a very bizarre phenomenon: The same jurisdictions that had locked down completely, banning church services and shopping for flower seeds, all to prevent COVID’s spread, announced that massive BLM rallies, riots, and eventual looting were inconsequential when it came to COVID. This May, Canada has done something similar. The same nation that’s been fanatically hostile to liberty because of COVID has dropped its regulations for pro-Hamas rallies. It’s the magic of leftist “science” all over again.

Canada has gone crazy (there’s no other way to put it) when it comes to the quixotic effort to stop COVID’s spread. Despite its low COVID death rate, Canada has made every effort to stop religious worship within its borders, going so far as to arrest a pastor for daring to hold services. It’s been pursuing anti-maskers with KGB-esque vigor and just recently ticketed dozens of people who attended an anti-lockdown protest. It’s also extorting people who had the temerity to travel abroad and then return home, mandating that they stay in select, and often very expensive, hotels for three nights to “quarantine.”

In other words, Canada is still living like America in spring 2020. And just like America in spring 2020, Canada has an exception to all the rules. In America, the exception was for BLM protests. The same people who had been telling us that salvation lay with stopping the economy and embracing solitary confinement for every American, suddenly announced that BLM rallies and riots weren’t too big a risk. Then, magically, when President Trump announced he would resume rallies, the Democrats’ so-called “scientists” again fretted about crowds

The socialist swamp now dcontrols Canada via its draconian public health athority. We no longer have el;ected, representative government.

We also have a defacto suspension of the Charter of Rights of Canada.

Public health could also be allowing the public to take prophylaxis drug therapy so as continue the freedoms guyaranteed by the charter, but they have opted to establish a totalitarian state.

The revolts in Canada may begin soon.Canadians do not go along with one law for Muslims and a worse one for Christians.The rumblings have begun.

They throw Christian pastors in jail but allow violent bearded savages to do whatever they want. Another country that is actively eliminating Whites and replacing them with savages.

I know that something happened and the vote as 371 to 1 to do ‘it’, but I can’t find any real explanation as to what ‘it’ was, what it means, or why ‘it’ was done by whom and when.

If you could provide something, I’d appreciate it

thanks in advance
