Ontario will remove most pandemic restrictions, including vaccine passports, by March 1 and loosen capacity limits sooner, Premier Doug Ford announced Monday. Masks will still be required indoors in public spaces until at least mid-March.
The announcement, which came as convoy protesters occupied Ottawa for an 18th day and the federal government enacted the Emergencies Act, brought accusations that the province had caved in to convoy demands.
Ford denied that, saying Monday’s announcement occurred “not because of what is happening in Ottawa and Windsor, but in spite of it.”
Still, at least some saw the announcement as a victory for the convoy movement.
“Now Ontario. Vaccine passports gone in 2 weeks,” tweeted Conservative MP and leadership candidate Pierre Poillievre, who has been a vocal supporter of the protesters. “Keep the momentum going.”

Ford said pandemic restrictions have been divisive for many, including his own family, calling it “one of the hardest things my family and I have ever gone through”. One of Ford’s daughters has been public about her opposition to COVID-19 vaccines and pandemic restrictions.

Ontario becomes the latest province to announce an end to pandemic restrictions. Last week, Saskatchewan and Alberta announced they would quickly lift vaccine passports, mandatory masking and other COVID-19 rules, despite Canada’s chief medical officer, Dr. Theresa Tam, warning that hospitals are still under heavy pressure and the country is not “out of the woods yet.”

My take, for what it’s worth,
Justina Castro will temporarily roll back thug totalitarian vaccins ‘passports’ while retaining vaccine ‘mandates’
Thug totalitarian like communist Jacinda.
Fidelito is insane.
Crackhead brother is insane
Jim Watson, the one who did not discover DNA structure, is insane.
Truckers are sane.
Country that supports them are sane.
politicians want to pretend they lifted restrictions all due to their own wisdom and eminence.
“Monday’s announcement occurred “not because of what is happening in Ottawa and Windsor, but in spite of it.””
LOL.
Fascists need to be destroyed.

“calling it “one of the hardest things my family and I have ever gone through”.
****
You know you’re lying like a true politician when you use the phrase “asked my family” or “hardest decision in my life”. Effing cliche.
They misspelled “because of”.
What a liar.
Each of those courageous truckers deserve a gold medal.
They showed the world how you deal with tyrants.
It’s a beautiful day.
“Ford said pandemic restrictions have been divisive for many, including his own family, calling it “one of the hardest things my family and I have ever gone through”
So far.
Poor, poor Doug Ford. It’s all about him.
These difficulties will pale in comparison if someone gets tarred and feathered, or drawn and quartered.
Nobody believes these ridiculous lies. We all know why they’re caving now.
