On September 11th Penticton4Freedom will host a Candlelight Vigil, in honour of all who have been impacted by the series of ‘mandates’ imposed since March 2020. We’ve chosen this date to reflect the urgency of the situation. (Dial 911 in an emergency.)
Many communities across Canada have begun hosting these events in recent months, co-sponsored by the Canada Health Alliance:

The intent is to create a respectful and inclusive space for sharing, reflecting, and connecting.
It has been more than two and a half years since the launch of COVID-19 and people across Canada are beginning to take stock of all the damage that has been done.
For many, this includes unexpected vaccine injuries (including death), job loss, economic disarray, mental illness and suicide. While the injured and damaged and their families and friends attempt to pick up the pieces, there is little acknowledgement or accommodation available for them. In many cases, there is no one to hear their stories or acknowledge and assist with the trauma and loss.
Mainstream media is not talking about this growing issue, and when those with a vaccine injury bring their problems to their doctor, they are usually tossed aside as being unrelated to the vaccine or are often attributed to anxiety. This leaves the injured in a constant state of uncertainty and distress, feeling afraid to make their claims public for fear of humiliation.
Canada Health Alliance, in collaboration with Vaccine Choice Canada and a growing network of other organizations, is joining together to acknowledge these silenced victims through a series of Candlelight Vigils. Communities all across Canada are stepping forward to assist in the healing process, where all those who have been hurt, marginalized and discredited can share their story and find support.
Everyone is encouraged to share their personal stories and photographs on social media using the hashtags #tellyourstory and #bringlighttodarkness. Those who were injured by the COVID vaccine or harmed by the public health mandates can tell their stories at https://canadahealthalliance.org/tellyourstory .
