Report on No More Mandates Rally at the B.C. Legislature, February 12, 2022
Dateline Feb 12, 2022 Victoria British Columbia
Today’s “love in” for Bunnie Henny at the Legislature was simply stellar.
I had the second stanza of, You Can’t Always Get What You Want, by the Rolling Stones, playing in the back of my mind. It goes like this: I went down to the demonstration / To get my fair share of abuse.
Wifey, Nephew and I rode our bikes there. When we arrived it was full-on beautiful pandemonium.
Truckers and assorted vehicles were driving around and around the Ledge with horns blaring. People lined both sides of Belleville with signs and flags waving as they cheered them on. The only ones being abused were the usual cast of characters whose names were prominently displayed on the placards and signs. It was a love-in for the ages.
A group of musicians was beating out their message on an assortment of drums and other instruments.

A handful of older sisters were sitting at the base of Queen Victoria’s statue while they smoked a fattie together. A woman with an Australian flag around her knees told me she was married to a Canadian. I met a young man who was leaving the armed forces because he was told that he had to be jabbed.
I tried to give a policeman a hug but he politely declined. Canadians are indeed a polite lot. There were no-jab nurses, and many others who had refused to bow to the demon gods.
I went straight to work handing out The Pandemic Papers to everyone. They were flying out of my hands as fast as I could peel them apart. I handed out about 500 in the two hours that undertook to do this.
The positive energy from this love in was indescribable. If you were there you know what I mean. If you weren’t there don’t miss the next one, people.
I finally left that beautiful scene to go home. As I was unlocking my bike I struck up a conversation with a man standing nearby. He told me that he was a scientist who had done thousands of PCR tests. He told me that he was fully convinced that the pandemic was real, and that thousands had died as a result. We had a very polite conversation. That conversation with someone who was just as convinced of his narrative as I was of mine was for me the highlight of the day.
