Covid-19 Charter Concerns

Dear Sirs,

I am writing to you about my very grave concerns with the Province’s attempts to regulate Covid-19 over the past year. We are now in week 55 (?) of BC’s “lockdowns” – the lockdown that was supposed to be of a limited two week duration in order to “flatten” a disease curve that never occurred. Over the past year, the government has continued to overreach and restrict its citizens further and further, in violation of our charter rights and constitutional freedoms.

This latest announcement by the BC government that, in reliance on Dr. Bonnie Henry’s wisdom, illegal random police stops are now authorized by the Province, is extremely worrisome. Random police checks are never acceptable in a just and democratic society, nor is restricting a citizen’s right to travel anywhere within the country. You know this as well as I do, which begs the question of why you have chosen to issue this edict. Is it to intimidate the masses? Set the stage for further constitutional violations? At this point, I don’t really care. All I know is that you are complicit in ruining a once great nation for very specious reasons. And, speaking of those specious reasons, here are a few of my concerns:

• Dr. Henry is not an elected official. Her recommendations are of no force.

• Dr. Henry has not provided any data or contact tracing analysis to justify these tyrannical measures. Nor can she.

• The Government of BC is finding Covid “cases” by misusing the PCR test in a way in which it was never meant to be used. You are all aware that “cases” is a meaningless term when high cycling thresholds are used. You also are aware that the PCR test is unable to determine when a person actually had an active case of Covid-19.

• All mask studies prior to 2019 showed that masks are nearly useless in preventing viral transmission. Mask studies of late indicate that, if anything, they cause more bacterial infection and respiratory illnesses. Dr. Henry is aware of these studies as well, but has mandated that even schoolchildren, who are at NO RISK of a fatal response to Covid-19, must be masked all day, even while exercising (a violation of WHO recommendations).

• This latest uptick in Covid cases is extremely suspect. The seasonal aspect of viruses makes an increase in cases very unlikely, unless there is some credence to the fact that vaccinated people are actually the ones who are contracting Covid-19 in greater numbers now.

I could go on, but it’s pointless as you are well aware of everything I listed above, and a whole lot more. I am so disappointed in this government, and in its eagerness to adopt communist dictates (presumably under the order of our treasonous prime minister). I don’t expect you to listen to my concerns, but I do want to tell you that I am an average, and up until now, extremely law-abiding citizen of Kelowna. However, even I now realize that civil disobedience is the only way to end this nightmare, and you should understand that when you have lost the middle-aged private school moms, you have lost everyone.
