The government also says you can’t impede the flow of traffic, but that didn’t stop them from parking trucks all around Ottawa in protest.
Clearly some laws are enforced more than others.
What I want to know is, did anyone get in trouble for not requiring masks? Because if they didn’t, then it’s really on the businesses because they chose to enforce that mandate on everyone.
There’s also a law that says you can’t pay for something with more than 25 loonies, but I’d bet if you pay for a meal with $30 in loonies, nobody will give a shit. We have some stupid laws, most of those stupid laws aren’t enforced because nobody gives a shit. I also know that some cities have banned smoking in public parks. Imagine getting a citation for having a smoke at the park down the street? Idiotic.
Enforcement is where the rubber hits the road. Just because the boneheads in Ottawa say you should do a thing (or not do a thing) is meaningless if nobody will enforce what they say should be a law or whatever.
Maybe I missed it, but I don’t recall any establishment getting fined or shut down for not requiring masks. I know the list of places openly opposing the mandate was small, but at the same time, fines for non-compliance also didn’t make any news feeds that I saw.

in the US? It was only a recommendation, though in schools and i imagine in some institutions it was a requirement set by the local body.
We did have quite the protest (some would say riot) over the federal mask mandates.
I still don’t get the issue. Signs saying “no shirt, no shoes, no service” barely get noticed, but putting a cloth on your face is too much?
Okay.
people are pissing and shitting themselves over it because the government said so, and they want something to bitch about.
That’s about it.

As per usual.
