Petition to the Government Canada
WHEREAS
- Pay cheques feed families;
- Working citizens' pay cheques, not government aid cheques, feed families and lead to a prosperous future for all Canadians;
- Current restrictions and lockdowns are applied and enforced without due regard to scientific evidence;
- Countries around the globe have approached the pandemic with varying degrees of strictness effecting very little measurable difference in the severity of infection and death rates;
- The World Health Organization admits lockdowns are needlessly destructive on both the longterm health and livelihood of people and to be avoided as anything but a desperate last measure;
- While opening the economy during a time of widespread illness does have its risks, free citizens must be afforded the right to make their own informed decisions for the wellbeing of themselves and their families.
We, the undersigned citizens and residents of Canada, call on the Government of Canada to work with all levels of government to immediately rescind harmful lockdown measures and reopen the economy, enabling pay cheques to once again feed families.
- Presented to the House of Commons
