      <u> </u>
      <p><br>
      </p>
      <p>Dear Community<br>
      </p>
      <p>I am deeply concerned about support that this Star opinion
        piece might have  in our community.  I find it alarming how
        rapid our society is devolving into a medically segregated
        totalitarian state devoid of human rights.  The opinion piece
        claims that unvaccinated healthy people are the criminals
        causing our suffering from the pandemic.  This is a patently
        false assertion and makes no logical sense.  If the vaccines do
        not prevent you from getting or transmitting the disease how am
        I infringing on your rights by exercising my right not to submit
        to trans-humanist gene therapy,  AKA Covid19 Vaccine.   The
        vaccine passport is about social control and nothing else.    <br>
      </p>
      <p>The Star opinion piece was posted on the Sunday Community list
        following a declaration favouring the pronouncements of the
        medical establishment rather than engage in a discussion of the
        evidence questioning the legitimacy of the vaccine passport.
        Subsequent posts  implied that Pulitser prize winning
        journalist, Chris Hedges and myself were conspiracy theorists
        for suggesting that science is controlled and serves  wealthy
        and powerful private interests.  <br>
      </p>
      <p>I believe that this discussion raises a pertinent theological
        issue because much of the vaccine passport response is based on
        unquestioned  faith in the medical system together with the
        doctrine of fear with which we are being deluged with daily
        pronouncements of rising case counts of Covid 19.  It is my
        premise that the default de facto faith of our culture is
        currently predicated on the fear of nature and the necessity to
        colaborate with big pharma to protect us from Covid 19 and
        future pandemics through the epigenetic manipulation of our
        celular DNA to artificially produce a toxic spike protein that
        must be administered to everybody in our society to achieve
        salvation.    <br>
      </p>
      <div class="moz-cite-prefix">It seems so hypocritical that this
        narrative is promoted by members of Ruah, who support the
        woman's right to make decisions regarding their body and the
        life that springs from it.  Now, do their members want to take
        away the right of individuals to give informed consent over
        medical procedures applied to their person?  The Nuremberg Code,
        the UN Declaration of Human Rights and the UNESCO Universal
        Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights are agreements that
        give citizens the right to choose to consent to any biological
        intervention <strong>after being fully informed about the

                                <div dir="auto"><br>
                                  Imagine that Canada has been invaded
                                  by a foreign army, which over the last
                                  18 months has rounded-up and killed
                                  more than 27,000 of us, wounded tens
                                  of thousands more and forced us to
                                  take shelter from its attacks, thus
                                  crippling our economy.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  Now imagine it threatened to kill
                                  thousands more of us because not
                                  enough of us are resisting its renewed
                                  and possibly most deadly assault yet.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  How would our governments respond? How
                                  would we expect them to respond to not
                                  having enough of us volunteering to
                                  fight the invader? We would expect
                                  there to be a draft? Of course we
                                  would.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  <br>
                                  <br>
                                  A military draft and military service
                                  violates a host of our rights
                                  enshrined in the Charter of Rights and
                                  Freedoms, but every violation would
                                  either standup to constitutional
                                  challenge in the courts or we would
                                  expect the federal government to rely
                                  upon the “notwithstanding clause” or
                                  “override power” in the Charter to
                                  uphold its draft and military service
                                  legislation.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  In times of invasion, the needs of the
                                  community as a whole come before the
                                  desires and imagined entitlements of
                                  the individual or there will not be a
                                  community for those individual rights
                                  to thrive in again.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  Even a brief study of human history
                                  reveals plague invasions are a certain
                                  part of human existence. We were due
                                  for a deadly one. We are apparently,
                                  as likely as not, due for another,
                                  even deadlier one soon. It is
                                  frightening and depressing, yes, but
                                  it is part of the reality of being
                                  human.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  It is, however, also part of the
                                  reality of being human that we do not
                                  have to helplessly succumb to any
                                  disease. We can fight them all. We
                                  have survived terrible ones by taking
                                  learned, appropriate precautions. We
                                  have altogether conquered many with
                                  vaccinations and actual cures. We will
                                  almost certainly conquer more.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  <br>
                                  The Charter does not stand in the way
                                  of us organizing the community to
                                  accomplish this and prevent
                                  individuals from sabotaging the effort
                                  any more than it would protect
                                  individuals who refuse to be drafted
                                  into military service to fight an
                                  invading army.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  <br>
                                  <br>
                                  <br>
                                  The Charter is not cheapened or
                                  endangered by protecting the very
                                  lives of the members of the community
                                  from either immediate death or injury
                                  from an invader of any kind or from
                                  the slow death and deprivation caused
                                  by a strangled economy.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  <br>
                                  Since the vaccinations became widely
                                  available, the people refusing to take
                                  them while complaining about the
                                  effect of lockdowns to the economy
                                  have been the very cause of those
                                  lockdowns or other lesser restrictions
                                  on normal economic activity.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  The demonstrators this past week at
                                  the doors of hospitals, which impeded
                                  ambulances, terrorized patients and
                                  psychologically devastated the truest
                                  heroes in the fight against the
                                  pandemic invader have, at long last, I
                                  hope, finally gone too far.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  This was the equivalent of storming
                                  our own military installations while
                                  we are in a war for survival. Such
                                  acts are criminal acts against the
                                  community and should be defined and
                                  legislated as such — and not merely as
                                  quasi-criminal ticketable provincial
                                  offences.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  Gathering in large groups,
                                  unvaccinated and unmasked in a time of
                                  pandemic, is a criminal act against
                                  the community and should be defined as
                                  such. Let people charged with such
                                  offences try to argue in a court of
                                  law they are unconstitutional because
                                  their individual rights that are
                                  infringed are greater than those of
                                  the community.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  I am a defence lawyer. Some will
                                  question why a defence lawyer would
                                  argue for such limits on individual
                                  rights, imagining being a defence
                                  lawyer to be some kind of law-hating
                                  anarchist. I suspect very few defence
                                  lawyers hate laws.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  What we hate are unfair laws, laws
                                  without rational and scientific
                                  justification, and the unequal and
                                  prejudicial enforcement of laws that
                                  make a mockery of individual rights
                                  and, in so doing, endanger the whole
                                  community.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  I believe there would be nothing
                                  contrary for most of us in the
                                  criminalization of unmasked,
                                  unvaccinated groups terrorizing and
                                  interfering with the operation of
                                  hospitals or gathering as such
                                  anywhere, even if simply for being
                                  part of such groups.<br>
                                  <br>
                                  We who fight for unpopular causes
                                  everyday in court do not understand
                                  the political cowardice that allows
                                  for a small minority of the population
                                  to thwart community efforts to fight
                                  and survive this pandemic and revive
                                  the economy.<br>
