$6,255 ticket dropped for Ontario woman who could not stay in quarantine hotel

From the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms

The Justice Centre is pleased to announce that Crown prosecutors have entered a stay of proceedings against an Ontario woman who was ticketed and fined $6,255 for not staying in a quarantine hotel upon her arrival into Canada.

The Ontario woman (who prefers to remain anonymous) was returning to Canada after a visit to New York on August 3, 2021. She suffers from chronic pain syndrome, which sometimes requires the assistance of a wheelchair and the assistance of friends and family for her personal care. Prior to her departure for New York, her chronic pain worsened and had not subsided by the time she returned to the Canadian border.

This Ontario woman was therefore not able to quarantine in any of the quarantine hotels designated by the Government of Canada. Quarantine regulations prohibited Canadians from returning directly to their own homes upon returning to Canada and required Canadians to pay out-of-pocket for a three-day hotel stay. Instead, she had made alternative arrangements to quarantine for 14 days in a separate area of her home, with the assistance of her mother. She believed she had established the safest quarantine plan–one that would prevent her from contracting or transmitting Covid. Her traveller intake form at the Canadian border indicated that she had established a suitable alternative quarantine plan.

For not staying in a government-designated quarantine location, she was ticketed and fined $6,255.

Lawyer Charlene Le Beau argued that her client should have qualified for a medical exemption under the Order in Council in effect at the time, and that, because she had established a suitable quarantine plan, the ticket should be dropped. Further, Ms. Le Beau also pointed out that 25 months had elapsed between the time the ticket had been issued and the trial date, and that this was an “unreasonable delay,” pursuant to the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Section 11(b) of the Charter states that “[a]ny persons charged with an offence has the right to be tried within a reasonable time.”

Crown prosecutors entered a stay of proceedings, and the ticket and fine have been dropped.

Ms. Le Beau, a lawyer in the Justice Centre litigation network, stated, “The right to be tried for a charge within a reasonable time is a fundamental principle of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and a trial 25 months after the date of a charge would not have been reasonable.”

John Carpay, President of the Justice Centre, stated, “We are happy that justice has been achieved in this particular case, even if it took too long. However, this victory does not undo the damage which the federal government inflicted on thousands of Canadians through its dangerous and utterly unscientific policy of locking Canadians up in prison hotels, thereby causing more contact and more interactions with more people.”

2025 Federal Election

Conservatives promise to ban firing of Canadian federal workers based on COVID jab status

Published on

From LifeSiteNews

By Anthony Murdoch

The Conservative platform also vows that the party will oppose mandatory digital ID systems and a central bank digital currency if elected.

Pierre Poilievre’s Conservative Party’s 2025 election platform includes a promise to “ban” the firing of any federal worker based “solely” on whether or not they chose to get the COVID shots.

On page 23 of the “Canada First – For A Change” plan, which was released on Tuesday, the promise to protect un-jabbed federal workers is mentioned under “Protect Personal Autonomy, Privacy, and Data Security.”

It promises that a Conservative government will “Ban the dismissal of federal workers based solely on COVID vaccine status.”

The Conservative Party also promises to “Oppose any move toward mandatory digital ID systems” as well as “Prohibit the Bank of Canada from developing or implementing a central bank digital currency.”

In October 2021, the Liberal government of former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced unprecedented COVID-19 jab mandates for all federal workers and those in the transportation sector. The government also announced that the unjabbed would no longer be able to travel by air, boat, or train, both domestically and internationally.

This policy resulted in thousands losing their jobs or being placed on leave for non-compliance. It also trapped “unvaccinated” Canadians in the country.

COVID jab mandates, which also came from provincial governments with the support of the federal government, split Canadian society. The shots have been linked to a multitude of negative and often severe side effects, such as death, including in children.

Many recent rulings have gone in favor of those who chose not to get the shots and were fired as a result, such as an arbitrator ruling that one of the nation’s leading hospitals in Ontario must compensate 82 healthcare workers terminated after refusing to get the jabs.

Beyond health concerns, many Canadians, especially Catholics, opposed the injections on moral grounds because of their link to fetal cell lines derived from the tissue of aborted babies.

RFK Jr. Launches Long-Awaited Offensive Against COVID-19 mRNA Shots

Published on

As millions of Americans anxiously await action from the new HHS leadership against the COVID-19 mRNA injectionsinjected into over 9 million children this year—Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has finally gone publicly on the offensive:

Let’s go over each key point made by RFK Jr.:

The recommendation for children was always dubious. It was dubious because kids had almost no risk for COVID-19. Certain kids that had very profound morbidities may have a slight risk. Most kids don’t.

In the largest review to date on myocarditis following SARS-CoV-2 infection vs. COVID-19 vaccination, Mead et al found that vaccine-induced myocarditis is not only significantly more common but also more severe—particularly in children and young males. Our findings make clear that the risks of the shots overwhelmingly outweigh any theoretical benefit:

The OpenSAFELY study included more than 1 million adolescents and children and found that myocarditis was documented ONLY in COVID-19 vaccinated groups and NOT after COVID-19 infection. There were NO COVID-19-related deaths in any group. A&E attendance and unplanned hospitalization were higher after first vaccination compared to unvaccinated groups:

So why are we giving this to tens of millions of kids when the vaccine itself does have profound risk? We’ve seen huge associations of myocarditis and pericarditis with strokes, with other injuries, with neurological injuries.

The two largest COVID-19 vaccine safety studies ever conducted, involving 99 million (Faksova et al) and 85 million people (Raheleh et al), confirm RFK Jr.’s concerns, documenting significantly increased risks of serious adverse events following vaccination, including:

  1. Myocarditis (+510% after second dose)
  2. Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis (+278% after first dose)
  3. Cerebral Venous Sinus Thrombosis (+223% after first dose)
  4. Guillain-Barré Syndrome (+149% after first dose)
  5. Heart Attack (+286% after second dose)
  6. Stroke (+240% after first dose)
  7. Coronary Artery Disease (+244% after second dose)
  8. Cardiac Arrhythmia (+199% after first dose)

And this was clear even in the clinical data that came out of Pfizer. There were actually more deaths. There were about 23% more deaths in the vaccine group than the placebo group. We need to ask questions and we need to consult with parents.

Actually, according to the Pfizer’s clinical trial data, there were 43% more deaths in the vaccine group compared to the placebo group when post-unblinding deaths are included:

We need to give people informed consent, and we shouldn’t be making recommendations that are not good for the population.

Public acknowledgment of the grave harms of COVID-19 vaccines signals that real action is right around the corner. However, we must hope that action is taken for ALL age groups, as no one is spared from their life-reducing effects:

Alessandria et al (n=290,727, age > 10 years): People vaccinated with 2 doses lost 37% of life expectancy compared to the unvaccinated population during follow-up.
