The younger Bush going into Iraq was just unfinished family business. It didn't have anything to do with evidence.

People and organizations sue governments all the time. It is the main reason things like the Pivot Legal Society exist. I lawyers believe there is a case, they will either do it pro bono or for a percentage of the settlement. If they don’t, they either won’t take the case or demand cash up front.

I suppose. I just don’t understand how people keep swallowing this social media stuff when it is so easily fact checked.

Of course it does. If there was a case it would have been challenged long ago.

No one is being forcibly vaccinated.

The fairy tale that these vaccines failed animal trials has been debunked by sources beyond count. Reputable sources that use their real names. Nothing makes people stupider than Facebook.

Exactly. It costs billions to run the trials, approval process and manufacturing capacity. No company will do that if there isn’t a market to support it. Until Covid that market wasn’t there, neither were there governments throwing billions in to develop these vaccines. The current approved vaccines did not fail animal testing. If they had there would have never been human trials.

mRNA vaccines have been studied for several diseases but until Covid no one wanted to spend the billions to develop and manufacture them.

mRNA technology is over 30 years old.

MRNA vaccines could be a real breakthrough against influenza. Right now, epidemiologists have to guess what strains will be dominant and formulate vaccines at least six months ahead. mRNA vaccines will cut that lead time down to weeks allowing them to cut out most of the guess work.

Public health orders are the law.

Let the Americans do it. National security, Canada style.

No one is forcing you to get vaccinated but you can't expect to be treated like you have been. Social contracts aren't about laws. If you don't care about others, why should they care about accommodating you and your lack of caring? It works both ways. You want what you are not prepared to give yourself.

Nothing you have said on this subject indicates you do.

What a drama queen. Do you honestly think what you are doing is somehow special?

No one did snatch them away. 99.9% of Canadians who have fought in wars were all volunteers. My father spent four years overseas during WW2 as did about a million other Canadians. Since when has getting vaccinated been putting your ass on the line? What a snowflake. Almost 80% of British Columbians are fully vaccinated and over 85% have had at least one shot. Your band of hero's is getting smaller every day.

Yes they did. They accept unlimited liability. What would be their personal gain? Believe it or not, there are people who want to serve their country and communities, to actually make a positive deference. You won't even do something that could save your own life and others. What a hero you are.

Yes it does. Every Canadian who has ever gone to war has done exactly that. Every Canadian who has become a police officer or fire fighter has done exactly that. 87% of BC Covid ICU cases are unvaccinated, 6% have had one shot and 7% are fully vaccinated. All the fully vaccinated are elderly or have serious co-morbidities. BC is now transferring critical Covid cases from the north to as far away as Vancouver Island. I wonder how their families feel as they see their unvaccinated loved one disappear on a medivac flight wondering if they will ever see them alive again. But hey. MA RIGHTS.

So why do we even have a health care system if its every person for themselves? You obviously feel you will never need one.

That's your excuse? What a pathetic human being.

Seems not.

You don't give your dog its shots. It has a run in with a rabid racoon then bites a neighbours kid and gives them rabies. Not your fault because you didn't do anything. Right What's the difference between that and denying someone an ICU bed because you couldn't be bothered to get yourself vaccinated and are taking up that bed yourself? Not your fault because you didn't do anything. Right.

You would have to pay your own way for a change.

My grand daughter just told us there was no polling place at UBC this time. There was last election. She had to take a bus off campus to vote.
