However I didn’t once hear of anyone being kicked out of a restaurant or sporting event for sneezing, coughing, or blowing their nose inside. This may have made sense if that card proved that you couldn’t get, or pass the virus. Unfortunately that proved not to be true. I get that everyone feels they made the correct choice. I’m very glad that for the most part things are back to normal and most are accepting of everyone now that politicians and media aren’t telling you to be intolerant of others. So far I haven’t heard the premier say that she wants to take anybody’s rights, she wants to make sure everyone always has equal rights as they should. Agree or disagree, but people should not be discriminated against for any reason. As another poster said earlier, most are over it, and once this initial shock wears off, I hope it continues to just be normal, which it will if folks stop fighting for their “right” to discriminate. The vax didn’t stop COVID in its tracks, the non vax didn’t all drop dead or cause everyone around them to drop dead. Both sides are still in society and it would be great if there is never such a divide in our world again where some members of society were put on a pedestal and others were stomped on like sewer rats. I think if we can all be respectful and understanding of both sides it can go a long ways. I personally think that is what the premier is asking for, and if you are too intolerant to do that, then maybe it’s mirror time.

This is a ridiculous sentence. People who chose not to get vaccinated did so for selfish reasons. They contributed to the overwhelming of our medical system, for which we are still suffering. This isn't just me saying things, it's a fact. If people can't do the bare minimum required to participate in society, it should not be a stretch to exclude them from large gatherings that contributed to the extreme problems we faced, like overrun hospitals, schools shut down due to lack of staffing, businesses unable to open etc.
This revisionist garbage you and others peddle is nonsense, and painting antivaxers as some noble class of people worthy of endless selfishness while others suffer is unacceptable. Knock it off. You want to live in society? Do what needs to be done for others. "Both sides" ...come on.
