Background Information on the Charter You May Find Useful:

Your Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is referred to as your Constitution or simply the Charter. It contains 34 sections. When you hear people say that actions are against, infringe, or violate the Charter, the Constitution, or are unconstitutional, this is what they are referring to. The Charter falls under Canada’s Constitution and is only a small part of it. It is crucial for Canadians to know and understand how their rights have been and continue to be violated in respect of the government’s COVID-19 measures.

Below is an excerpt of the sections in the Charter where your rights are being violated – detailed explanations are listed beneath each section. 

Please EMPOWER yourself with this knowledge. Then STAND UP to it !!

Before Diving into the Charter – Let’s First Understand the COVID-19 Measures:

It’s vital to understand what these “measures” actually mean in terms of violations to the Charter. You need to ask yourself if any of these measures are “reasonable” or “justified” and then draw your own conclusion. And you MUST consider the 342 BILLION DOLLARS the Canadian Federal Government has spent so far on these measures. This figure does not even include how much the Provinces have spent so far. Canada’s debt has sky-rocked to well over a TRILLION DOLLARS – that’s twelve zero’s $1,000,000,000,000.

Statistics as of November 12, 2020 (we will update as required):

Canada’s population  . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 37,855,621

Covid-19 “related” deaths in Canada  . . . . . . . . . 10,768

% of Canadians who died “with” virus . . . . . . . . 0.028%

As we update this page when we can, you can always find out the actual current COVID-19 “related” deaths in Canada from the government of Canada by clicking HERE.

The following is a list of COVID-19 measures with their descriptions which violate the Charter. These measures actually violate multiple Charter sections you will see further below under the individual sections.

Self-quarantine (isolation):

– undue emotional and physical distress for the elderly particularly those living in long-term care homes

– people living alone

– traumatic for children

Social distancing:

– neither scientifically nor medically-based

– ineffective and fictional concept

Mandatory face masks:

– unconstitutional

– ineffective and pose physical and mental health dangers

– violates the physical and psychological integrity by seriously restricting a person’s PRIMORDIAL RIGHT to breathe

– restricting the very right of liberty, to choose HOW to breathe

– mandating masks to stop the spread of a disease is a medical treatment requiring YOUR consent under section 10 of theHealth Care Consent Act, Ontario

– section 11 are the elements required for your consent

(this is Ontario only – each province/territory is different – please check your provincial/territorial health care consent policies)

Hand sanitizers:

– there are NO hand sanitizers approved by the Government of Canada

– Health Canada has 115 recalls of hand sanitizers as they are toxic to humans (as of November 2, 2020)

Temperature taking

– should only be done by a medical professional

– should NEVER be done by a waitress or store clerk, anyone who is NOT a medical professional

– requires YOUR consent under the under section 10 of the Health Care Consent Act

– section 11 are the elements required for your consent (this is Ontario only – each province/territory is different – please check your provincial/territorial health care consent policies)

– DO NOT CONSENT to having your temperature taken in any place of BUSINESS

– they have NO right to do this!

Asking for ID

– your ID is your name, address and phone number including your date of birth

– NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO ASK YOU THIS (except your medical doctor)

– bartenders know this!

– not even the police to some extent

– doing so also violates provincial and territorial privacy rights 

Closure of all “non-essential businesses”

– arbitrary and unjustified

– this is your right to work, to earn a living, to support your life/family

– where is the legal definition of “non-essential businesses”?

Closures of Churches, Schools, Daycares, Parks & Playgrounds

– arbitrary and unjustified

Discontinuance of access to Education, Medical, Dental, Chiropractic, Naturopath, etc for physically and mentally disabled, particularly special needs children with neurological disorders

– arbitrary and unjustified

Testing for COVID-19

– NO evidence of viral isolation – confirmed by Canadian researcher Christine Massey, who filed 7 Freedom Of Information (FOI) requests – see confirmations below

– 7 Canadian experts confirm – Health Canada, University of Toronto, Sunnybrook Hospital, Mount Sinai Hospital, National Research Council (NRC), Region of Peel (Brampton, ON) and McMaster University

– 2 world experts confirm – New Zealand and UK

– so why are you being tested?

– you are being tested for “symptoms”, not the virus

– how can they possibly claim positive test results, if the “virus” has not been isolated?

– there is NOTHING to compare “testing” to

– requires YOUR consent under section 10 of the Health Care Consent Act 

– section 11 are the elements required for your consent (this is Ontario only – each province/territory is different – please check your provincial/territorial health care consent policies

Mandatory Vaccine for COVID-19

– since the virus has not been isolated a vaccine is impossible to make

– denies your very right to freely choose by your thoughts, your religious beliefs or through your own good conscience to not consent to this

– anyone not consenting to vaccines who have received penalties or been denied benefits, these impositions deny your right to life, liberty and the security of the person

– requires YOUR consent under the under section 10 of the Health Care Consent Act, Ontario 

– section 11 are the elements required for your consent (this is Ontario only – each province/territory is different – please check your provincial/territorial health care consent policies

– violates human rights under the Nuremberg Code

Multiple Parties Violating Your Charter Rights:

To make things worse and more complicated, you need to be aware that there are multiple parties violating your Charter rights.

This gives the illusion that since all government bodies are doing this, it must be OK.

NO – IT IS ALL UNLAWFUL – ALL MEASURES!

We have identified who they are, under the sections listed below.

Who is Accountable?

Do you know who is making these orders, the COVID-19 “measures”? It is the Chief Medical Officer for Canada as well as provincial Chief Medical Officers including Public Health Officials – these officials are responsible for all the municipalities by province.

Why is this important to know?

Because Medical Officers are NOT elected officials. This means they are NOT accountable whatsoever for any of these “measures” you and I have been ordered to follow. Medical Officers are paid public servants working for federal and provincial government departments. While they have a term of 5 years or more as Medical Public Officers, they are still employed as public servants thereafter. In other words, they cannot be fired or voted out, as is the case for politicians.

Not only are Medical Officers NOT ACCOUNTABLE, they are also NOT LIABLE for anyone who suffers injuries for wearing a mask!!! It states this on their DISCLAIMER.

Here is Ontario Public Health’s Disclaimer:

DISCLAIMER: “The application and use of this document is the responsibility of the user. PHO assumes no liability resulting from any such application or use”

So WHO IS ACCOUNTABLE then?

Only your ELECTED officials. The POLITICIANS. The people you VOTED for to run the Country or run the Province for a SPECIFIED PERIOD OF TIME. They are 100% accountable to you, NOT Public Health! They can be voted out of office. You cannot do this with public servants (Medical Officers).

So why are we taking orders from anyone who is NOT ACCOUNTABLE and NOT LIABLE???

CONSTITUTION ACT, 1982 – PART I

CANADIAN CHARTER OF RIGHTS AND FREEDOMS

Whereas Canada is founded upon principles that recognize the supremacy of God and the rule of law:

Guarantee of Rights and Freedoms

Marginal note: Rights and freedoms in Canada

1. The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms guarantees the rights and freedoms set out in it subject only to such reasonable limits prescribed by law as can be demonstrably justified in a free and democratic society.

Section 1 – this section is THE MOST IMPORTANT one.

It is telling you that ANY of your guaranteed rights and freedoms BELOW this section, can be overturned or violated, as long as new measures can be proven to be “reasonable” and  “demonstrably justified”.  

In other words, your “guaranteed” rights and freedoms are NOT in fact guaranteed to you. 

The onus is on the State to show that (1) there is a valid legislative objective; and (2) that the measures taken to affect that valid objective, are proportional and not over-reaching.

Government COVID-19 measures are NOT “reasonable” NOR are they “demonstrably justifiable”.  All measures are not scientifically nor medically-based nor proven to be effective whatsoever in the case of viral respiratory disease (the flu).  

Fundamental Freedoms

2. Everyone has the following fundamental freedoms:

(a) freedom of conscience and religion

Legal Rights

Marginal note: Life, liberty and security of person

7. Everyone has the right to life, liberty, and security of the person and the right not to be deprived thereof except in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice.

What does Section 7 mean?

This is a very important section as it covers many meanings with the words “life” “liberty” and “security” which applies to all Canadians. This is your guaranteed RIGHT to LIFE, to have SECURITY, to WORK as an employee or own and operate a BUSINESS.  Section 7 only applies to non-incorporated businesses.

Examples:

– Small business is THE back bone of Canada’s economy and we’re proud to fill that vital role!

– I’m so lucky that I live in Canada and have the freedom to choose how I want to breathe

– I expect no negative consequences for choosing to not vaccinate myself or my dependent children

  • Social distancing

This is your guaranteed RIGHT for a reasonable expectation of YOUR PRIVACY. Simply stated, police and other government agents cannot, without sufficient reason, invade the personal privacy of individuals. Your NAME, ADDRESS, PHONE NUMBER and your DATE OF BIRTH is YOUR PRIVACY and no one else!

Example:

Waitress to patron: “Can I have your name, address and phone number please?” Patron to Waitress: “Are you kidding? You have no right to ask me this. Can I have yours?”

This “measure” falls under this section:

Your identification (ID)

– this is anyone (restaurants, businesses, bars, etc) asking for your ID

– which is your NAME, ADDRESS and PHONE NUMBER

– NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO ASK YOU THIS (except your medical doctor)

– bartenders know this!

– not even the police to some extent

– doing so also violates provincial and territorial privacy rights

YOU HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO WALK AWAY FROM ANYONE ASKING FOR YOUR ID – THERE IS NO LEGAL OBLIGATION ON YOUR PART TO RESPOND

Who is violating this?

Canadian Federal government and Canada’s Chief Medical Officer

Provincial governments

– Premiers’ Declarations of Emergency

This is your guaranteed RIGHT to you and your children to NOT be DETAINED (to lock you up in official custody) or put in PRISON, without legal authority.

Example of arbitrarily detainment:

Little Suzy has just tested positive for COVID-19 at school, so she’s been removed and placed somewhere else WITHOUT her parents being PRESENT and WITHOUT their permission

No one can be “held” or “detained” anywhere WITHOUT the legal protections of a fair trial or when someone has been “detained” without any legal basis for the deprivation of their liberty (depriving them of their freedom).

No measure in place (yet), but if “detainment” is mandated by the government or Public Health official:

If you or your children have been diagnosed with COVID-19, you:

– CANNOT be detained at a hospital, prison or quarantine centre

– CANNOT be removed from your home

If you or your children refuse to wear a mask or to get a vaccine, you:

– CANNOT be detained

Who will be violating this?

Any Federal or Provincial government who writes new legislation for this

Any Provincial or Public Health Officer who writes new recommendations for this

Any person, group or organization who will be enforcing it

Equality Rights

Marginal note: Equality before and under law and equal protection and benefit of law

15. (1) Every individual is equal before and under the law and has the right to the equal protection and equal benefit of the law without discrimination and, in particular, without discrimination based on race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex, age or mental or physical disability.

What does Section 15 mean?

This means that every individual in Canada has the RIGHT to be treated with the same respect, dignity and consideration.

Example:

Being provided with the same service regardless of everything personal listed above that makes you who you are. Including, whether or not you have a mental or physical disability that people can see or not!

Mental or Physical Disability

– Anyone who has a mental or physical disability is protected from discrimination under the Human Rights Code, Ontario

(this is Ontario only – each province/territory is different – please check your provincial/territorial human rights code 

If you declare a medical exemption, no one has the right to ask you to prove it under this section.

NO ONE HAS THE RIGHT TO ASK YOU ABOUT YOUR MEDICAL CONDITION

– except a “Health Information Custodian” AND no one has the right to ask you to prove it under this Section. Doing so also violates personal health information protection which falls under the provincial/territorial privacy policies

– business owners or their employees are not Health Information Custodians

– they have no legal right whatsoever to DENY service for anyone who declares a medical exemption

– they are not legally allowed whatsoever to “approve” a medical exemption that a patron’s (or employee’s or student’s) medical doctor “issues”

– they are not legally allowed whatsoever to disregard the medical assessment of a patron’s (or employee’s or student’s) medical doctor

Who is violating this?

Anyone asking you about your medical condition; asking for proof of it; asking for a medical exemption from your doctor

– Business owners and staff

– Municipal bylaw officers

– Schools and teachers

Denied Service for not wearing a mask?

If you have a medical exemption, and you are seeking service (shopping, restaurants, etc) – here are actions to take and consider doing:

– #1 ACTION – download or print the bylaw, or public health recommendation for the AREA where you intend to seek service BEFORE going there (yes, it has come to this unfortunately).

If you are still denied access to service AFTER you have declared your medical exemption under either the bylaw or public health order – there are 3 options to consider:

1. your first option would be to phone your local bylaw officer and demand that the store be fined under the municipal bylaw (failure to comply with the mask exemptions outlined in the bylaw)

2. your second option would be to phone the Human Rights Tribunal for your province/territory to make a complaint for discrimination on protected human rights code “disability” and ask for maximum compensation for damages (Ontario 1-866-598-0322); find your area and double check that “disability” is a protected code.

Note: Each province/territory may have different protected codes under their provincial/territorial Human Rights Code

3. if no fine has been issued by the bylaw officer on option 1 above, AND if the Human Rights Tribunal does not remedy your situation with option 2, your third option would be to sue the business in Small Claims Court for damages – in Ontario maximum compensation is $35K (you do not need a lawyer for this)

IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO WEAR A MASK – please read our article called “Helping Canadians – Mask Issues
