Anonymous Coward User ID: 52209190 Canada 09/23/2021 03:13 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | We have non essential things now requiring vaccine Pssports. Going to gym, movie theaters, dining in, is now illegal unless ur vaccinated. It took effect yesterday so I went to my gym today to see if I can get in. I scanned my gym card got Inside and they made a line to get to the front desk so you can't skip It and turn away. Then at the front desk they asked me for the digital proof and I said I dont have it and then they asked me for paper proof and I said I dont have it . Then they said they can't let me in. So I said cancel my member ship and that was it . The gym will bill me until October 27 they said even though I cant access it. I feel like getting some gasoline and finishing the job. So far we can still buy food and takeout but we all know kn GLP that will be the next right taken away soon. Then it will get serious |

Went to Tim Hortons, notice on door said, mask, vaccine passport and ID needed, walked in maskless, ordered, got my stuff and left. Today at Home Depot, the grocery store and another store in a mall, no mask, no vaccine passport, no hassle. Oh yeah, also went to the bank, maskless, did my transaction and left.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 80910157 Canada 09/23/2021 03:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Today's the first day I've been out. I don't see this affecting my life too much. I don't do any of the activities that are being prohibited, and most coffee shops and restaurants still offer take out (though I will boycott the ones enforcing the mandate). Some are ONLY offering takeout so as not to discriminate at all. Most don't have any notices up, so it's hard to tell at this point. This is technically not a law so it's incumbent on the business to ask the customer to leave if they do not have correct papers, and then call the police (lol) if they refuse... so it's not as though there are cops out pro-actively enforcing this like in Australia. We're still allowed to leave our homes and have no distance limitations. |

I have always been a very simple person in that I don't want much in life but to have quality time with the people I care about and my needs met.

Restaurants have big yellow Covid Passport signs on them and ask for papers, so it's Nazism, plain and simple. I gather with friends on Friday for drinks and home-cooked dinners now and don't go out. I wouldn't go out even if vaxxed. They can shove thier papers. I'm attending freedom protests and rallys. We won't stop until Canada is free again. We are doing this even for the retarded passport idiots. Sad part is I'm still free while the ones who show papers aren't. If they need a booster in the future and don't get one thier "freedom" is gone. They are slaves the same as the blacks were on the plantations. Show your pass or else isn't freedom. If they go through with jab or else no job in late Oct the shit hits the fan. |

I never had to show any papers to eat out in a restaurant in the past but I now do. That's not freedom. That's slavery and those who submit are now slaves of the state. |
TrueNorth User ID: 77811278 Canada 09/23/2021 03:29 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I wanted to ask a serious question to those in Canada, Ontario and BC. I was thinking on the idea of "what would it actually feel like.... on an emotional / spiritual level.....to live under (or in) a segregated society". Quoting: GodLikeProduct I guess I've never REALLY thought about it. It just struck me today, deeply.... how fundamental WRONG it is. So I ask you the direct question since in your locations that has become reality. What does it feel like ? honestly? To know that your government and many around you are acting in a way to treat a class of people as 'second class'.... imagine them doing that to fat people, or just blacks, or people with beards. This is really really a bad state of affairs. But don't let those thoughts cloud your experience...... I am genuinely interested what the reality is so far. Montreal reporting in... Only so-called "non-essential services" are effected. No restaurant access anymore, so have to be creative for first dates... Saving a lot of money though and making big family dinners as usual.(Note: while patrons need passport, the entire restaurant staff CANNOT be forced to get the jab due to labour laws...). But it's still a big annoyance and likely illegal and nonsensical. No gym access; I only workout outside anyway so has no personal impact on that front. But, I now can't take one of my kids to their indoor climbing training. Built an outdoor wall instead which is a huge success. Keeping my powder dry (and preparing my case) until the most opportune moment to sue based on the Charter; it will happen if they try to mandate the vax for my little one (or coerce us by limiting access to school, etc.).

Just knowing they're in effect though is pretty shitty. Knowing I won't be able to join family/friends at a restaurant is surreal. All of this is surreal. I can't believe that this is my country. The way my PM talks about the unvaxxed makes me livid. Absolutely livid. |

As far as I'm concerned, Trudeau has openly declared us second-class citizens when he referred to us as "those people" in a speech to "all" Canadians (meaning we are not included in the "all"). Scary but incredible time to be alive. Put your trust in God. So far he has not failed to protect me. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 79889820 Canada 09/23/2021 03:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | British Columbia here. Some places aren't enforcing it at all. One eatery posted signs on their place and notices on social media that they aren't asking for passports and when I got there the line up for the place was outside with a dozen people waiting to get in. They were doing a land office business. The place I normally eat at was asking for the passport and since I am 'unclean', I am not welcome. I won't forget that. |
