...that I cant go in anymore and need someone else to do my shopping for me, I asked which rule, law or regulation says that, if it was store policy or across all the stores of that name, was told that its been like that for awhile. Is this cashier misinformed? Im pissed that I was told essentially "your kind dont belong here" and I need others to shop for me like I was some invalid. I tempted to go back there in my suit and ask to speak to the manager about it.

Sir, do you have a mask? "Do you understand the bylaw you are trying to apply? You are explicit violation of the bylaws/acts you are trying to enforce just by asking."
Oh, I don't care "Are you actively discriminating against me? Are you confessing to committing crimes against me?
It's in our store policy for people to wear a mask. "Am I a store employee? Why do I have to follow your policy? Isn't that for you as an employee to follow? Can you produce a signed contract where I relinquished my rights to your policy? Does your store policy supersede the Federal Canadian Bill of Rights and Charter of Rights and Freedoms?"
You have to wear a mask. "Are you practising medicine without a license? Do you have rights/privileges to practice medicine at this public accommodation? Are you confessing to practising medicine without a license?"
The law says you have to wear a mask. "Are you making legal determinations against me? Are you practising law without a license? Are you confessing to practising law without a license?"
If they threaten to call the police and cite you for trespass, and you are able to be calm and Hold Your Position. Call 911 first, tell them there is a man/woman who is:
"Not wearing a mask is not a crime."
And only the OWNER of the property can claim trespass against you. The police cannot, nor can an employee or manager. They expose themselves to Tort Law and personal liability if they take actions as such (as long as you are not committing crimes).
A police officer only has the right to interact with you if:
In all interactions, remain calm, polite, respectful, as them to produce EVIDENCE for their actions. They have none. Hold your Position. By doing so you are exposing their liability as they are making these decisions personally, without right or evidence.
I would also highly recommend having audio/video recordings of all interactions. Canada provides rights for SINGLE PARTY recording (https://www.legaltree.ca/node/908). If you are one of the parties in the conversation, and you consent to the recording, then the entire conversation can be recorded by you. If you enter a public accommodation, you can record it. The store is recording you. Did you provide explicit consent to being recorded? No, they just tell you because it is a public accommodation.
Anything you cannot do to someone, another man/woman cannot legally do to you.
Your rights only exist if you exercise them.
This is just for informational purposes. Not advice. Everyone needs to own their own actions, learn the law, protect yourselves.
