OftenWrong Posted February 28, 2021 Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 Meanwhile, people who feel the need to pray to god remain under attack by "Health Authori-titties" Quote Pastor James Coates, who ministers to GraceLife Church in Parkland County, just outside of Edmonton, has been behind bars since Feb. 16. He has refused to abide by bail conditions that would see him released, which include not attending or holding services. Coates was charged in mid-February with violating public health orders. Following his release, he was arrested again for violating his conditions of release. His lawyers have argued the lockdown provisions violate Charter rights to religious freedom. His trial is set for May 3 and he remains in the Edmonton Remand Centre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackbird Posted February 28, 2021 Report Share Posted February 28, 2021 6 hours ago, OftenWrong said: This is why we must speak out to oppose their ideas on Covid-19 response. Experts call Peel guidelines to place children in solitary quarantine 'cruel punishment' "Peel Health has issued guidelines to parents instructing them to keep any children who have been sent home because a classmate has tested positive for COVID-19 isolated in a separate room from all other family members for 14 days." Instructions from some fanatical "health experts". This just shows how difficult it is to prevent the spread of Covid-19. Following these health directives would be extremely difficult and unlikely in many cases. It is probably a nearly impossible request for many people. Sad reality.

For all things we do there is the benefit and there is the price to pay. My take on Covid 19- The remedy is worse than the disease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then some folks have gone so deep into order and recommendation writing, burning (public) zillions here on clearly useless apps and other zillions there on very scary ads that they completely and irrevocably lost all connection to the reality around. Why not recommend to keep them in a level 4 protected lab, a spaceship I don't think there's any practical limit to the bureaucratic imagination that broke free from the bonds of reality.

CITIZEN_2015 Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 My take on covid is that we could have avoided or kept in check the virus if we had smart politicians and health professionals. They were always late in making the right decisions and / or made wrong decisions. They closed borders too damn late, they advised on wearing masks too late, they negotiated for vaccines late so we are still waiting for vaccines and only 3.5% of population vaccinated 3 months after vaccine discovery, most especially those politicians in Ontario will be causing many deaths in the future because they don't give up on their stupidity and still insists on two doses even though it is proven that one dose provides almost as much immunity as two doses and depriving millions of much needed protection against the deadly virus from which many will die.

OftenWrong Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 Seven days is not what I am seeing. One guy put in jail for 16 months, another for one month, several women for two weeks. Thats a quick google search. People are trying to speak out about what's happening to them there, and it's being suppressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked it up and NZ has had a total of 26 deaths since this began. That's 26 people over one year. A lot of people die from things each day. In fact, everyone who is born dies.

And so, if twenty six people die of a new and potentially dangerous epidemics in one year, in a jurisdiction of 5 million, how does that compare with twenty two thousand, with a population of 30? Are the people different? Or the lockdowns were different? Or maybe, the democracies are different? How could it be explained, logically?
