Liberal MP tells Trudeau to ‘stop dividing Canadians’ with COVID-19 approach

the COVID-19 pandemic and calling on the federal government to “stop dividing Canadians” and to provide a clear plan for when it will lift vaccine mandates.During a Tuesday morning press conference, Lightbound called for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the Liberal government to “stop dividing Canadians.”“I can’t help but notice with regret that both the tone and the policies of my government changed drastically on the eve and during the last election campaign.” Trucker convoy protest ‘has to stop,’ Justin Trudeau says Most recently, Trudeau has been outspoken in condemning the behaviour of a so-called “Freedom Convoy” of protestors that has taken over much of downtown Ottawa.Speaking in a press conference Monday, Trudeau said Canadians have watched the protestors “in disgust and disbelief,” wondering “how this could have happened in our nation’s capital after everything we’ve been through together.”However, his comments have prompted some — including interim Conservative leader Candice Bergen — to accuse him of sowing “division” by “overtly politicizing vaccines and the pandemic” and “calling these Canadians names.”Now, Lightbound is slamming the government for causing what he characterized as worsening divisions among Canadians — and he’s calling on the Liberals to make a number of changes.He said they should provide a “clear and measurable benchmark” for when public health measures will be lifted.

Court denies injunction to unvaccinated Quebec caregivers seeking access to residents

Unvaccinated Quebec caregivers in court to gain access to long-term care homes Natalia Manole had argued in court last week that vulnerable residents are suffering without access to caregivers, and if unvaccinated health-care workers are able to work in the same facilities provided they test negative, people looking after loved ones should be afforded the same right.In his ruling, Brossard says he must abide by the presumption that the government is acting in the public interest with its COVID-19 health measures, despite serious concerns raised by the plaintiffs.Brossard says he hopes the epidemiological situation improves, allowing authorities to once again give all caregivers access to health-care establishments.He also suggests, “with goodwill,” that caregivers who are unvaccinated strictly due to personal choice should “calmly, but diligently” re-evaluate their decision and its impact on the people they’re looking after.
