Is King Trudeau On His Own Now? ANOTHER Liberal Province Announces Plan To Drop Vaccine Passport

 Prime Minister Trudeau is making history, but maybe not the type of history one may want to go down in the history books for.  In an effort to bring the ongoing trucker convoy in Ottowa to an end, for the first time in Canadian history, the federal government is enacting the Emergencies Act, declaring a public order emergency.

On Monday, the prime minister made the major announcement alongside Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland.   “I want to be very clear, the scope of these measures will be time-limited, geographically-targeted, as well as reasonable and proportionate to the threats they are meant to address,” Trudeau said, making it clear that for those still participating “the time to go home is now.”

The Emergencies Act, which goes into effect for a month, allows the federal government to bar people from gathering in certain locations. It could also allow officials to conscript the use of private tow trucks. The deputy prime minister, Chrystia Freeland, said the Act would bar the use of crowdfunding websites for illegal activities and punish companies whose trucks were being used in the protests.

Watch as Trudeau was heckled today by the opposition while trying to defend his decision to invoke the Emergencies Act.


Trudeau may end up being alone in this as provincial leaders appear to be mixed on whether this extraordinary step is necessary, it seems that some leaders are removing restrictions daily instead of following Trudeau’s direction. In fact, Health Minister Christian Dubé made the announcement at a news conference today, saying the COVID-19 situation in the province has improved enough to gradually ease the measure.

Dube’ announced that as of Wednesday, Quebecers will no longer need to show a vaccine passport to enter liquor and cannabis stores as well as larger retail outlets.

As of Feb. 21, the passport will no longer be required in places of worship or at funerals.

By March 14, the passport will be phased out entirely, including for restaurants, gyms, cinemas, and long-term care homes. Dubé said the change will coincide with the arrival of the first COVID-specific antiviral treatments in the province.

Proof of vaccination will still be required for domestic rail and air travel, as mandated by the federal government. Masks will also still be required in all public indoor spaces in the province.

Dube’ tweeted the timeline below:

Translated from French by The PV has demonstrated its usefulness, protecting Quebecers and our health network while allowing a return to “normality.” In the current context, PV is less necessary. You take it off gradually as you learn to live with the virus.

Many Canadians may be leery of this staying power of the restrictions being lifted after Dube’ admitted that vaccine passports and mandatory masks have no end in sight only days earlier of his announcement today.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford declared a state of emergency in the province on Friday, invoking new emergency measures to levy stiffer fines and penalties on protesters, including a maximum penalty of $100,000 and up to a year imprisonment for non-compliance. “These occupiers, they’re doing the total opposite of what they say they’re there to do,” Ford said.  However, in the video below it seems there may have been a change of heart.

I wonder what may have caused that?

Honk Honk!
