February 17, 2022
Open Letter to our Premiers, and to our elected and appointed officials.
End the mandates; end the vaccine passports. This is why we are here.
We began our freedom convoy with a clear destination: Restoring freedom for our families, our neighbours, and our country. We arrived in Ottawa 20 days ago, taking a stand for our future.
We have given hope and power to freedom-loving Canadians and beyond. People from aroung the world are now standing with us and want their freedoms back.
Today, February 17, 2022, we continue to inspire millions of Canadians to resolutely demand the return of their freedom. We have furthermore become the model – the beacon of hope – for citizens across the globe.
The government-imposed restrictions in the effort against the COVID-19 pandemic, which rescinded many of our liberties for our protection, have been worse than useless. For instance: families have become separated; children, who require intimacy and play for their educational and social development, are suffering the consequences of inhumane isolation; small-businesses, especially the service industry, can no longer survive with limited capacities; mental health issues such as drug-addiction, alcohol dependency, and suicide have increased several-fold.
The list of harms is too many to document here, and others will emerge with time. All we can do now is heal the damage that you have done.
The concept of “freedom” here is not only an idea; we have materially felt its loss. Otherwise, we would not be in the streets. Many of us now having nothing to lose. This is our line in the sand. This is where we hold the line.
Once we arrived in Ottawa, we experienced a truly Canadian gathering. The Sikh communities shared food with everyone. Dance parties were set up. Concerts with sea-shanties were held. Children drew thank-you cards for truckers and handed roses to police officers in between playing street hockey, drinking hot-chocolate, and jumping in bouncy castles.
We have heard Canadians far & wide. Here we communicate what has been conveyed to us.
The message is clear: End the mandates, end the vaccine passports. This is why we are here. We are calling on all governments in Canada to restore the rights and freedoms of Canadians and set concrete limits so governments can’t easily abuse our rights and infringe on our freedom again. The message is as follows:
We call upon our governments to restore the rights and freedoms of all Canadians:
End all vaccine mandates.
1. End Federal, provincial and municipal vaccine passports.
2. End masking requirements.
3. End all state-of-emergency declarations pertaining to our peaceful protests.
4. Provide financial protection for the small businesses harmed by Covid restrictions;
5. Respect freedom of choice without discrimination.Furthermore, Canadians want assurance that our governments will not repeat the same mistake again. We propose the following steps be taken to ensure this.
1. Supreme Court of Canada Review of Government Actions.
We need to know whether our rights under the Charter mean anything. We call upon the Federal Government to initiate a Constitutional Reference question to the Supreme Court of Canada about the constitutional validity of the Covid laws and restrictions.
2. Public Inquiry of Government’s Response to Covid.
As a matter of national importance, Canadians call upon the Federal Government to appoint a fully independent and impartial public inquiry on the government’s handling of Covid responses.
We need to know what went wrong – what caused governments to so easily trample our rights and freedoms and cause so much harm to our people and our nation.
For the inquiry to be effective, the following conditions must be considered:
a. The inquiry members are to be selected by an all-party parliamentary process;
b. It must contain a thorough examination of the science, internal communications, policy responses and the consequences;
c. It must be commenced by March 20, 2022; and
d. It must be made public in the interest of transparency.The Freedom Convoy has achieved so much already. In fact, we have revived the Canadian identity and our culture, which openly accepts every person with love.
We all have a choice. Please, join with us and Canadians who seek freedom. This can be a part of your legacy. We are uniting Canadians across the country and will accept your support, even if you’ve previously been reluctant. This is not about the past – this is about the future. You too can be on the right side of history. End the mandates. End the vaccine passports.
Yours sincerely,
