B.C. joins the growing number of Canadian provinces that have strongly changed their tune on COVID policies since the Freedom Convoy reached Ottawa with overwhelming grass-roots support.

VICTORIA, British Columbia – The province of British Columbia announced that its mask mandate is ending immediately and that vaccine passports will be gone in less than a month.

The move comes despite recent statements that the Province of British Columbia would be living under draconian COVID measures until at least the summer.

The immediate termination of mandatory masking was announced yesterday and pushes B.C. ahead of Ontario, which still has making in place until March 21.

In addition to scrapping masks, B.C. intends to drop the vaccine segregation measures in place that bar unvaccinated Canadians from full participation in public life by April 8.

According to the province’s website, visitor limits in long-term care settings will also end by March 18, and churches can resume with unlimited and unrestricted worship.

B.C. joins the growing number of Canadian provinces that have strongly changed their tune on COVID policies since the Freedom Convoy garnered overwhelming grass-roots support.

From what I'm hearing north of the border, what's happening up there is that one or two provincial governments lifted their stupid COVID restrictions, and there's been a large-scale migration of people and businesses there from other parts of Canada.

The last Canadian province to do away with this idiocy will be the biggest sh!t-hole up there.

Alberta and Saskatchewan were the first, as soon as the others saw that people weren’t dropping dead in the streets they cautiously decided to go along ...

oh those brave Politicians!

Will the Westerners make a shrine to the truckers who were stripped of their rights, property, cash and livelihoods to force the stubborn, vicious governments to finally dump their nauseating police state restrictions?

Just a few weeks ago they were assaulting old ladies, beating people, shooting them with tear gas cartridges, stealing their money and trucks, throwing people in jail for simply being against the fascist restrictions.

Canada is still fascist. trudeau is still PM.

You’ll get your answer here... most provinces have announced plans to get rid of masks but not for several weeks or some time in April. Only BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan have got rid of them already and Manitoba is supposed to on March 15.

I agree.... it’s the Canada-U.S. border issue that the big one. Other issues are trivial ones.
