PRESS RELEASE
LEGAL CHALLENGE TO COVID-19 MEASURES FILED
IN ONTARIO SUPERIOR COURT
July 8, 2020
We are living in unprecedented times. The mass and indiscriminate
containment of citizens, the restriction of access to parliament, the
courts, medical and educational services, the destruction of local
economies and livelihoods, and the requirement to physically distance,
along with the forced use of non-medical masking are extraordinary measures
that have never before been imposed on the citizens of Canada. The impact
of these aberrant measures on our physical, emotional, psychological,
social and economic well-being is profoundly destructive and these actions
are unsustainable, unwarranted, extreme and unconstitutional.
During times of emergency, Constitutional rights do not stop being
important. They become even more important.
Vaccine Choice Canada has made numerous formal requests of the Government
of Canada and various provincial governments to provide evidence that
justifies the declaration of an emergency, the imposition of unscientific
and unwarranted measures, and the violations of our Charter rights and
freedoms, to no avail.
An over-hyped COVID-19 pandemic narrative is being utilized to create
unnecessary panic and to justify the systemic violation of the rights and
freedoms that form the basis of our society, including our Constitutional
rights, sovereignty, privacy, rule of law, financial security, and even our
very democracy.
Many recognized global health and research experts have offered their
severe and valid criticism of government overreach and the draconian and
unjustifiable measures taken in response to COVID-19. The warning bells are
being rung about the dire consequences of these unwarranted, irresponsible,
and extreme actions that are in violation of the rights and freedoms well
established in Canadian and international law. All this continues to fall
on the deaf ears of governments.
On Monday, July 6, 2020, VACCINE CHOICE CANADA formally filed legal action
in the Ontario Superior Court to hold multiple parties accountable for
their actions with respect to COVID-19 measures. The defendants include:
the Government of Canada, the Government of Ontario, the Municipality of
Toronto, various public health officers, the Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation, among others. VACCINE CHOICE CANADA has a long history and
enviable reputation of advocating for and defending the rights and freedoms
of Canadians when it comes to public and individual health.
