My wife is status Indian. At one time, her people were not permitted to leave the reserve without carrying that certificate and getting written permission from the Department of Indian Affairs. That permission was routinely denied.

So no, this is not ‘woe is me fears’. This is what happens when you give bureaucrats power to revoke your basic human rights.

In effect, you are saying that because Aboriginal Canadians used to be grossly oppressed by making them carry written permission to leave home, it is therefore a good thing for all Canadians to be grossly oppressed by the same means.

I say there are worse things than the risk of being infected by COVID, and being placed under permanent house arrest is one of them.
I say you have immunity to empirical facts, logic, and reason. Submit facts you didn’t fart out of your mouth and I’ll return the favour.

Oh boy more privilege.

Don’t like to stay home… get vaccinated.
Feeling grossly oppressed… get vaccinated.
Feeling like minimizing COVID risks to children… get vaccinated.

I’m not sure, but I don’t think there was a vaccine decades ago to enable white privilege for indigenous people without losing their treaty status, but go on about your oppression and fear mongering.

Your privileges are not rights and your inconvenience is not oppression.
