Fun fact, you can refuse all the tests, and the house arrest/quarantine facism, plus don’t take the ticket when it is proffered. Literally do not raise your hands or even attempt to touch or hold/take the ticket off the Stasi. Let it fall to the ground. Walk away.
“Are we done here? Am I being detained? Then am I free to go?”
The good news is that if they were laws, hundreds of people would be arrested. However they are not. They cannot arrest you because they are regulations (as far as I know) and are not arrestable violations.
One cannot be arrested for refusing a covid test because refusing a medical procedure isn’t illegal. The quarantine hotel mandatory thing is all a front and facade. They are counting on the person not knowing there’s nothing to stop you from leaving. If the Stasi threaten arrest- let them arrest. Your lawyer will have a field day with them.
Even if by some miracle Justine Trudeau or fat Komptroller got them to pass as laws, I’m guessing next to nil have been arrested for them, because gubmint knows well that upon reaching queens bench or provincial or even SCOC, it would be ruled unconstitutional and the Goobermint humiliated.
Chris Sky walked out. As did based old polish man (video somewhere on boobtube of him basically refusing all the crap- wish I could remember the video)
There was mainstream news a while back about the Stasi burning through their supplies of green ticket pads because so many folk at Toronto were opting for the fines rather than the house arrest or test nonsense. I gather it’s best to land at YYZ Calgary airport because of some provincial technicality in AB law meaning the Stasi have even less power to do with health regs.
If I have time I’ll look it up and post it. Quite the interesting read Canadians should be aware of.
It’s all wizard of oz big state scary man and vicious guard dogs smoke and mirrors kabuki. Once you assert ones rights, the curtain is pulled back and they shrink away because you see it’s just midgets and chiwawas.
Yet I landed in YYC, asserted my constitutional rights under sec 6.1, and emergencies act 14.2, shown out of the stupid covid1984 “test” line, refused the quarantine hotel and test. Didn’t get a ticket for the covid1984 hotel refusal. The Stasi were actually quite polite.
Because it’s not an offence and it’s not a law. If it was a law in Alberta they would enforce it. But they didn’t. The Alberta Stasi can’t do shit, because they can only act if a Public health Canada worker makes an official complaint. Wether the covid1984 things are “regs” “laws” “guidelines” or whatever level they are is all bark and no bite because the charter and constitution poops all over them.
There’s a bit in the charter/rights-freedoms or constitution that says in so many words that no matter what law, reg or rule gets crapped out by these tinpot dictator vermin likeTrutard, Henry, Kenney, Ford et al, if it breaches the charter, its null and void before the ink even dries.
Doubt away, it’s a semi free country. Try it yourself, many people bedsides myself were politely declining their offer.
Voided? Sure, agreed, if the gov wants to take it all the way to the SCOC. Except section 6, right to enter and move about Canada. This was deemed so important, the drafters made it immune to the notwithstanding clause.
I agree that the gov (provincial or feds) can try to legislate away that right, and may be successful in the short term because of ruling by fear of consequences, but it will fall like a house of cards if and when it gets taken to the SCOC.

“ It is important to note that section 6 is not subject to section 33, the Charter’s notwithstanding clause. If invoked, the clause allows governments to ignore certain Charter rights. However, when the notwithstanding clause was drafted, mobility rights were determined to be of such fundamental importance that the Charter drafters decided that governments could not override those rights by invoking the clause. In effect, individual mobility rights were given an additional safeguard from government interference. ”

Think yourself lucky Canada that at least you have a somewhat functional constitution. The UKs last remaining bill of rights. the Magna Carta, was watered down over years to useless levels. Now, the law of the land in the UK is essentially that, unless something is expressly defined by legislation to be illegal, it is not technically illegal.
I’m confident close to zero, if not total zero green tickets has been successfully prosecuted. I sent the ones I got off with the court option ticked and I never heard back.

I read something about them updating the ArriveCAN app to where you upload a picture of your vaccine card, but not sure if they implemented it yet
