taxme Posted February 6, 2022 Report Share Posted February 6, 2022 1 hour ago, Army Guy said: Mask do work , provided we are using the right ones. Even our own chief medical people have said so. What type of masks are most prevalent today, those paper blue ones or home made. It has been determined that the minimum protection required is N95 mask... but those masks are hard to get, and expensive, supply chain has not caught up. Most people are going through the motions, they are doing the minimum required, shit most people do not even use the hand wash stations any more just walk on by. According to many other well known and well respected doctors and scientists have said that masks do not work. So, who should I believe? Your doctors and scientists and the government or the others that I mentioned above? Just what proof do you really have that masks do work? Maybe if someone wore five masks at onetime it might stop the covid bug. ? I refuse to wear a mask when I do not have too, and I do not worry about keeping my distance from others, nor do I wash my hands with some kind of soap when entering or leaving some place of business. And I certainly do not drive around in my car with the windows up and wearing a mask. Now that is being really paranoid at it's worse. Those people are nuts. ?

LOL. We now have Truckers, farmers and tow truck operators and millions of Canadians joining in the battle for their rights and freedoms to be restored. How about that "Gofundme" outfit who has refused to release the 10 million dollars that was donated to the truckers fund and cause. There is no doubt that Castro Trudeau had something to do with that. This communist federal government has to go. As long as communist dictator Trudeau is in control and running this country we will never see our freedoms and rights being restored. This is a battle for our right to live as a free people.

When there’s a siege by a small minority looking to take over governance from the democratically elected authorities, should the strategy be appeasement? Not sure it is a small minority. It is a minority but not small who want to get rid of mandates. Based on recent poll about one in every three Canadian support the convoy and two-third oppose so that is about 10 million adults.

What will probably happen now that there's backlash against governments is they'll pressure organizations like the Chamber of Commerce to self police masks etc. Government can say its not their rules while still applying pressure in behind the scenes.

It seems like everywhere in Canada today Marxists have pretty much taken control of all of our government and private institutions. Our politicians, our education system, our medical system, our media, and even our judicial system appears to be all linked up together to try and implement Marxism in Canada. All those mentioned above seems to be always in agreement with the likes of Castro Trudeau and his Marxist ilk. I would dare to say that Canada is pretty much getting very close to becoming a Marxist country. This covid sacmdemic of a farce has allowed our dear so called Marxist political leaders to pretty much take most of our rights and freedoms away from us and even our own governments at all levels are now practicing discrimination against those who chose not to get vaccinated. No vaccine passport, no entry into a restaurant. I cannot even go for a swim at my local indoor swimming pool without being vaccinated. What kind of a country are we all living in today? A Marxist country by chance? ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to believe that people like eyeball and others leftist liberals here are all in favor of a Canadian citizen needing a vaccine passport to be able to go eat in a restaurant and have dinner with family or friends. In Austria, the government there will only allow those that are not vaccinated to be able to go to work or go buy groceries only. Otherwise, they must lock themselves down. I am surprised that some governments in Canada did not try and pull off this stunt yet. Lucky for we the peasants, it may be too late for that now, thanks to those patriotic hero's called truckers. Go, truckers, go. Truck off, Trudeau. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both have ganged up on we the peasants for decades now. They have lied and scammed us all into believing that taking away most of our rights and freedoms from we the peasants that it was all in the name of THEIR science and not we the peasants science. Our peasants science would have been that if those two buffoons mentioned above were not allowed to get away with and carry on with their scamdemic covid farce, and tried to make a big fuss over nothing, we would never have gone thru two years of hell and counting with all of this covid bullshit. It's now time to end this covid scamdemic farce once and for all. All patriotic Canadians must stand with our truckers and our farmers. If we do not then it will be Marxist Trudeau that will win this battle. Gawd help us if Marxist Trudeau does win. His Marxist revenge will be swift and merciless. Just my opinion of course. ?

Yes the logic is very simple. As you enter or walk to your table it is likely that you may come in close distance of less than 2m determine by experts as safe distance for respiratory diseases. But once you sit down then your position is fixed not changing or dynamic and tables are set such that you are at least 2m away from closest table. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t mean you specifically with my 2nd comment. Apologies. I should’ve been more clear. Referenda on public health policy is a,poor idea. Why not ask if better masks should be mandated?

However, it could be optional, most would voluntarily wear comfortable effective masks. It is quite odd that the thousands protesting without masks and some without vaccines who are in close contact with each other appear to be safe. Theoretically, shouldn't most of these protesters be sick or dying due to COVID? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasn't the government had 2 years to get these supplies? And how come the N95's on amazon are so expensive and/or crappy Chinese knockoffs?

I have them in my organization, but thankfully they’re currently optional, because I don’t want to wear them. They’re thicker and harder to breathe through. I’ve been wearing masks daily at work for about 22 months. Triple vaccinated, all meetings virtual, lockdowns and WFH, no meals with co-workers, families in a rut. I want it all gone. Whatever to Covid. This is mass hysteria and my organization can’t give any of this nonsense up. Governments refuse to wean us off the endless hair on fire crisis. The only crisis I see is mandates and restrictions. I don’t know anyone who is worried about Covid. They’re all vaccinated and dressed like mummies.
