Quesnel Mayor bob Simpson did not pull any punches when discussing anti-vaxxers and freedom protesters.
In a statement released today, Simpson called the freedom rallies nonsensical, and anarchistic.
Simpson says he worked behind the iron curtain in Soviet countries in the 70s, so he knows what a dictatorial government can do.
He then called out the irony of people protesting perceived government oppression while exercising their freedom to protest, protected by law.
In the chastising letter, he goes on to call the disinformation and dissent spread by these protests harmful to society.
With Covid cases once again rising in the North, Simpson says its time to trust elected officials, who make decisions based on actual data, and not uninformed conspiracy theories.
In closing, he says to end the pandemic we need to trust government officials, get vaccinated, and use more reliable sources of information.
