Don't support this garbage. Canadians should instead stay at home and eat their UN inspected bugs. Stay safe and don't forget your follow up vaccination
The Independence Party of Alberta supports Chris and his staff at the Whistle Stop Cafe. We were there last weekend to talk to him and his patrons. This illegal lockdown has gone on for far too long.
Do you guys generally support breaking the law? I thought Conservatives were supposed to be about law and order.
These impositions are unlawful/unconstitutional.
Generally, conservatives are pro business and pro free market. Lockdown laws infringe on this.
So, it's OK to disobey a law if it violates your political beliefs?
Ya, lockdown laws are the stupidest thing ever.
The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms has launched several law suits against provincial governments as they are the ones breaking the law.
You would tell authorities Anne Frank was in the attic wouldn't you.
After taking a gander at the Charter I believe you guys are right. Not about Conservatism of course, that's awful! ?
Seriously though, do any of you know if someone has launched a charter challenge against the lockdowns?
I was in Alberta yesterday, none of the places I saw were open for dine in.
The problem with these adaptive measures is they tend to completely miss why people engaged in these activities to begin with. No one pays $30 dollars to go to a restaurant because the food is that much better than what they can make at home. People are going because they want the communal atmosphere or the feeling that they had an outing that day. These things can't be replicated by take-out or frozen meals even if you could ensure the same quality.
Of course any business that has been shut down by the government should do what it can to survive but there's just isn't the market to keep all of these places alive if they can't do dine-in service.
