UNCONSTITUTIONAL
How confident are you that they Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms can protect you against intentional and unwanted harms and aggressions imposed on you by the Government of Canada?
Do you trust your government employees to protect you from them?
This morning I read this statement in the linked report: “Under Canada’s Quarantine Act, all arriving passengers were mandated to stay at home for two weeks.”
A few questions came to mind:
The Quarantine Act is was passed in 2005 by the federal Liberal government under Paul Martin. How was it approved under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms if it effectively removes a Canadian’s right to bodily autonomy and sovereignty?
Who approved the invocation of this Act in response to COVID19? Was it a unilateral decision by Justin Trudeau, or was it passed in Parliament? If passed in Parliament, who of the 338 MPs voted to pass it, who opposed it, and what were their party affiliations?
Who approved the spending of $43,000,000 tax dollars to hire security guards to visit private residences to enforce this Act? Did any of those guards refuse the assignment for constitutional reasons?
Is the Quarantine Act part of a legislated authoritarian framework (LAF) with other Acts, such as Canada’s Emergencies Act, that provide the authority to leaders like Justin Trudeau to sidestep the constitutional rights of Canadians whenever the right political circumstances and opportunities arise to claim greater powers? (ie to “build back better”, a LAF-able claim from an ambitious political leader!) It can’t be an accident that both of these Acts have been invoked since Justin Trudeau and Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freedom - each longtime members of the World Economic Forum - took the reigns of power in Canada, can it?
If and when the current Liberal Party should be defeated in the next federal election and replaced with a majority Conservative government under Pierre Poilievre, how confident are you as a voter that the legislative authoritarian framework (not a LAF-able matter) will be scrutinized under constitutional law, found to be unconstitutional, and either repealed entirely or revised accordingly?
Food for thought?
