I am writing to you to express my deep concerns with regards to the situation that is growing in our community, province, and Country. Members of our government officials, including our Honourable Prime Minister, have been advocating hatred, segregation, division, antagonism, and rivalry without remorse.
We are asking you to pass these concerns to Parliament, to the Speaker and to the Prime Minister Mr. Trudeau.
We, as a Country, for about 2 years have been fighting the pandemic to stop the disease. With almost 85% of Canadians, Canada is one of the most vaccinated countries in the world. Unfortunately, lots of people are forced to be vaccinated by being scared to lose their jobs, by not complying with the mandate, by not expressing the opinions that contradict with the government’s choice. Many of my close friends are also vaccinated because they are forced to, in order to keep their jobs or to be able to live a close-to-normal life. This shows that the mandate is working by enforcement, not by choice. Opinions of those who did the choice of being not vaccinated are not valued any more, and even worse, the unvaccinated people are scared to express their opinions at work or in public. They became outsiders. Since the segregation started, we hear offending comments addressed to unvaccinated people. This segregation stipulates the unvaccinated as the reason for the spread of Covid. But we know and statistics confirm that both vaccinated and unvaccinated, if ill, they become a source to spreading the illness. Stop making the unvaccinated the only source of the spread. The antagonism is fed deeper, and what makes that feeling of oppression worse, is that it is openly declared and fed from speeches of our government officials.
People are losing trust in the government, in Canada’s future. People want their lives back, to keep their jobs, to go to gym and have an active lifestyle. But all these, become now “luxury” items for many people, and possible only if you are vaccinated and become forbidden for non vaccinated people. Someone may say that the vaccine is a choice offered to Canadians, but what kind of choice is it, if I cannot work and support my family without the vaccine? Is that a true choice? We are not the lazy, violent, racist, uneducated people who ignore science, but that is how the government portrays the unvaccinated. No, we are hardworking taxpayers, honest Canadians who have our heart for the country’s future. We are standing together for the civil rights which have been heavily violated lately. Let’s stop hatred, segregation, division which Mr. Trudeau tries to seed.
I saw in the FREEDOM Convoy a group of United Canadians asking for a better future, for freedom of speech and for stopping mandates. On Friday Jan. 28th, the prime minister told the media he was concerned the protest would turn violent, and said the convoy represented a “small fringe minority” who “do not represent the views of Canadians.” But thousands of people came to Ottawa, thousands of truckers from all over the country joined the Freedom Convoy to express the UNITY and stop the Mandates which leads to a divided society. Almost over 100,000 people donated money supporting that goal. Is this group of thousands of Canadians less- Canadians? Do they deserve to be called ‘fringe minority’ or violent racists? When will this constant humiliation stop?!
Hundreds of people in my town greeted the convoy with happy faces and Canadians flags. The same support you could see in every city of Canada where the convoy went through. The protest in Ottawa has been peaceful and friendly. The atmosphere has been friendly in Ottawa. But the speech of Justin Trudeau, on January 31, was extremely abusive, yet again. Our Prime Minister desperately keeps trying to segregate the society by calling unvaccinated people’ hateful’, ‘violent’, ‘racist’, uneducated that ‘reject the science’, ‘conspiracy theorists’ and the list is long. These egregious statements feed further the promotion of hatred and violence against an easily identifiable group, specifically; individuals who have not received any or all Covid-19 Vaccination doses. Those speeches are unfair to those Canadians, and the use of the media to seed those purposes are illegal based on The Criminal Code (R.S.C., 1985, c. C-46) s. 319(1) and 319(2).
We don’t want to endure those names anymore. Let’s stop the endless attacks towards the unvaccinated, they ARE patriotic CANADIANS too!
As citizens of Canada who resides in the Province of Ontario, and who are identifiable when proof of vaccine is requested almost everywhere, these comments have now left me and my family FEARING FOR OUR SAFETY, AFRAID TO GO OUT IN PUBLIC,
We want our life back. Do we ask so much by having our life back as it should be?! Do we ask much by stopping harassing us by the media and stopping the spread of segregation in our society?!
We, respectfully, ask you to bring this to the attention of the Parliament and the Government, and would ask for clear feedback from you, as the representative of our Constituency, to keep us fully updated with the processing of this request, our civil right.
