And no, that’s not what “freedom of movement” means at all. Show your work.
Here's the basic definition given by Wikipedia:

Quote:
Freedom of movement, mobility rights, or the right to travel is a human rights concept encompassing the right of individuals to travel from place to place within the territory of a country, and to leave the country and return to it. The right includes not only visiting places, but changing the place where the individual resides or works.
If you are forbidden from entering each and every place within the territory of your country, you do not have freedom of movement. We have already seen our government forbid us to enter each other's homes. The express purpose of the vaccination passport is to forbid people to enter businesses and public buildings unless they are carrying the required document – and there is no guarantee that such a document will be issued if properly applied for.

I've known enough people whose basic human rights were denied because the Canadian government refused to provide them with necessary documents. If you want to be one of those people, nobody is stopping you; but you're a damned selfish fool if you want to impose that on everyone else.
