Action for Canada and Tanya Gough present a statement of claim challenging the anti-vaccination policies and practices of the Canadian government in British Columbia, Canada. In this episode, Action for Canada's Rocco Galati and Tania Gough discuss the reasons why Canada should not be required to vaccinate its citizens, and why a vaccine passport is a tool of oppression.
00:00:43.320Thank you, Raji. And good morning, everyone. My name is Rocco Galati. I'm sitting with Tanya
00:00:49.100Gough, founder of Action for Canada. On August 16th of this year, we presented a statement,
00:00:58.480a comprehensive statement of claim in British Columbia, which they in British Columbia is
00:01:03.840referred to as a notice of civil liability, spanning about 386 pages, challenging the various COVID
00:01:13.420measures in the province of British Columbia. The statement of claim was returned to us by the court
00:01:20.540with the file number two days ago, and its date stamped on August 17th. So anybody looking at that
00:01:28.000might be confused, because once they issued the claim, they issued it the day after it was presented
00:01:33.820to them, which was the 16th. The statement of claim has 20 plaintiffs, Action for Canada and 19 other
00:01:43.920private plaintiffs seeking constitutional relief and monetary damages for the damages caused to them
00:01:54.600because of the oppressive, unlawful, criminal and unconstitutional measures implemented in that province
00:02:03.100through the government and the chief medical officer, Dr. Bonnie Henry. The statement of claim
00:02:10.880canvases the history of COVID, the scientific and medical evidence, the law and the constitutional rights
00:02:19.100that are violently and deprivingly being violated against every citizen of that province, and in fact,
00:02:25.440every citizen in Canada. The measures are not only oppressive and devastating, they are unscientific,
00:02:34.160non-medical, illegal, criminal and unconstitutional. They have had the effect, intentional or unintentional,
00:02:42.400of setting up a police state dictatorial regime with a singular aim, an obsession with vaccination,
00:02:49.100regardless of whether that vaccination program is illogical, which it is. Furthermore,
00:02:56.880the measures are clearly, it's not even in dispute anymore by any person who's not in a coma,
00:03:06.320that the measures are killing more people than the purported COVID deaths are.
00:03:12.780This is not a public health agenda we're witnessing in our country, or around the world for that matter.
00:03:21.340It is a political, socioeconomic control agenda.
00:03:28.300And all the facts to support this proposition are set out in the statement of claim.
00:03:34.640We're going to take the BC and Trudeau government to task through this claim. Although the prime minister
00:03:47.500talks a lot of nonsense, his jurisdiction over the COVID measures is very limited, and it's limited to quarantine.
00:03:56.320You know, while he used the threat to federal vaccine passports as a political vote getter,
00:04:02.740he has no jurisdiction as a federal government. The federal government has no jurisdiction whatsoever
00:04:10.500in the constitution to enforce any medical treatment. That's provincial jurisdiction, and he knows it.
00:04:18.660Because if he did, he could have put in the law before the election, and it would have been challenged.
00:04:23.540So we're going to take him to task, and the first item on the agenda, once we serve the government of Canada
00:04:36.340and government of BC, is that we're already preparing an application to stay the vaccine passports
00:04:45.240announced and implemented, which are being implemented by Dr. Bonnie Henry.
00:04:51.800If you think about it conceptually, and actually, what the vaccine passports do is, in a very sublime
00:05:01.000and dictatorial way, is they encompass everything that's wrong with these measures.
00:05:06.600They are a vicious tool to enforce vaccinations, despite the fact that the Supreme Court of Canada
00:05:17.160has clearly ruled, in many cases, that no medical treatment can be, medical treatment or procedure
00:05:25.720can be applied without the informed, voluntary consent of that individual.
00:05:32.080The Supreme Court of Canada has declared that to be a right under Section 7 of the Charter.
00:05:38.960So they're using these vaccine passports to exclude people from living their lives, unless they
00:05:47.360are forcefully given medical treatment they do not want, voluntarily.
00:05:56.000This only happens in a police state. This only happens in a tyrannical,
00:06:00.400political dictatorship. And the other thing, and so these provisions, the idea of a vaccine passport
00:06:10.240breaches as a tool of oppression, Sections 2 and 7 of the Charter. What the other thing that's
00:06:16.320even more dangerous that the idea of a vaccine passport does, is it divides fellow Canadians. And so it
00:06:23.760discriminates under Section 15 of the Charter, under Section 15 of the Charter, based on medical condition.
00:06:30.480So if you don't want to take this vaccine, because you've calculated the risks and you choose not to take it,
00:06:37.600you're in a class of people now that's being discriminated from social society and from your basic rights.
00:06:46.480And so it divides Canadians, and you don't need a rocket scientist or sociologist or history PhD to know that this kind of division
00:07:00.000that becomes increasingly hostile to the level of violence, it is inviting hostility and violence
00:07:07.440between one class of Canadians against another class of Canadians. And this is not what
00:07:15.040the Supreme Court of Canada has determined is good governance. The governments are under constitutional duty
00:07:24.640to engage in good governance. This is depraved, this is illegal, this is criminal, it's unconstitutional.
00:07:34.000And it's nonsensical. They tell you that a vaccinated person can infect another vaccinated person.
00:07:52.480So scientifically and logically, what is the purpose in that context of having a vaccine passport?
00:07:59.280You're going to exempt vaccinated people from having to have a vaccine passport to do the things
00:08:06.800that unvaccinated people cannot do. But they can spread and be and be and receive the COVID vaccine
00:08:16.480from other vaccinated people. So you can see very clearly that this is not a medical or health agenda.
00:08:24.800This is a political one. They want everybody vaccinated for whatever reason.
00:08:31.280And up to now, there's never been a problem with people exercising their choice. So you've got to ask yourself,
00:08:38.560why, and we address this, why is the noose that the government is putting on Canadians getting tighter and tighter?
00:08:46.960Well, that too is answered by history and human behavior. Throughout history, when tyrannical measures and a tyrannical government is not being successful
00:09:02.320in its implementation of whatever agenda, they become more vicious until something has to give.
00:09:08.480So why are they becoming more vicious now? Here are the facts. Prior to COVID-19, so-called vaccine hesitancy,
00:09:18.000and we take offense to that term, vaccine hesitancy. Exercising your constitutional rights should not be smeared in the negative.
00:09:28.640So so-called vaccine hesitancy in Canada was between 9 to 11%. Let's call it 10%. So 10% of Canadians did not take vaccines,
00:09:40.160including annual flu vaccines. Part of this plan and agenda that the governments are clearly implementing is they want to see
00:09:48.480everyone vaccinated, therefore bring down vaccine hesitancy down to 0%. But here's the reality.
00:09:56.880According to Doug Ford, only 70% of Ontario adults, that means they have been vaccinated.
00:10:06.40030% of Ontario adults have not taken the first dose. Canada Health Canada says that in the 18 to 30 year
00:10:19.280age bracket, 67% of those kids, if I can call them that, because I'm over 40, are, haven't taken the first dose.
00:10:35.120In the States, only 52% of all Americans have taken the two doses.
00:10:41.92042% of U.S. Marines have categorically said we are not taking any COVID jabs.
00:10:51.920In other countries like Ghana, only two and a half percent of the country has been vaccinated by choice.
00:10:58.240And if you, and if you take a global, if you take a global rate, because in the developing world, like Pakistan, only 1% have been vaccinated.
00:11:10.880And now the government there is taking away people's cell phones, you can believe it, as a coercive measure to vaccinate.
00:11:20.640So, I was looking at it, I was looking at something the other day where it suggested only 10% of the world population has taken the first two doses.
00:12:11.360Justin Trudeau months ago announced the acquisition of X number of booster vaccines from now to 2025.
00:12:19.120They translate into the fact that if you've taken the first two here, you're going to require another booster.
00:12:27.040All the vaccine passes, say, that have been proposed, the vaccine passport expires in 90 days, meaning you have to get another shot after that to renew it.
00:12:38.080You will be expected to get four shots a year until the year 2025, when, according to a hypothetical report at John Hopkins University, after 2025, a new bug will appear on the radar called the SPARS.
00:12:59.940So, the, let's flatten the curve for two weeks, has evolved to, we go back to normal with the vaccine, has evolved to, the normal is a vaccine, and I call it a vaccine, contesting that designation, every three months you're expected.
00:13:25.140Now, many people in my circles, and it's out there everywhere, said, well, you know, I would not normally have taken this, you know, this medical experiment, except I want to travel.
00:13:40.620And you're not getting your life back.
00:13:42.620And so, these measures are clearly not only oppressive, they've been fraudulently, in the most criminal fashion, been put forth in a systematic way, by those who we have voted and entrusted to engage in good governance.
00:14:02.640So, sitting next to me is Tanya Goh, founder of Action for Canada, and subject to anything she may want to add, we'll then take questions.
00:14:17.200And I want to start off by truly, genuinely thanking Rocco for taking this case on.
00:14:22.460This journey for me started a year ago, particularly regarding the, I want to say, the COVID pandemic fraud.
00:14:28.240I knew from the onset in early 2020 that this was just part of a plan.
00:14:34.360I've been working at this for six years.
00:14:36.200We saw the direction the Canadian government was trying to take Canada in removing the rights and freedoms and become a totalitarian state.
00:14:44.340And COVID, this COVID plan has catapulted that into fruition.
00:14:49.180And we need Canadians to really take a look at what we're doing, to question everything the government and the media is saying.
00:14:56.480I took this on because I saw the harms that were happening to children, to the elderly, the businesses that were being shut down, the people that were committing suicide.
00:15:06.200One of my very dear friends, his daughter committed suicide because of the lockdowns.
00:15:10.700And I just thought there's no way to sit back and do nothing.
00:15:13.600So, in September last year, I announced in Vancouver that we would be raising funds.
00:15:19.120And I'm very pleased today as well to say that 100% of those funds have been raised as of yesterday.
00:15:25.200And a big thank you to Valerie for paying that last $1,000 to get us over there.
00:15:30.800And we're very serious about what we're doing in coming up against not only the BC government, but this will set a precedence for all premiers and put them on notice, as well as the federal government.
00:15:42.680And anyone who is continuing to go along with this, it's time for them to question how far they want to go.
00:15:49.240So, thank you to everyone as well for your support.
00:15:51.880And the grassroots helped us get here as well as raising the funds and being able to sit here with Rocco in his office.
00:15:57.260It's an honour and thank you so much for what you're doing.
00:16:32.100Is there some sort of deadline for the government and Bonnie to respond?
00:16:36.580What is the next step in regards to waiting for a court date?
00:16:41.180Well, they'll have to respond either by way of statement or defence, or often what they do in these cases, they try to move to strike it.
00:16:53.120So, regardless of what they do, that does not hamper us from bringing our motion to stay the vaccine passport pending the determination of its constitutionality by the court on the action.
00:17:25.560It's just more expansive because the measures in BC are, you know, much more oppressive.
00:17:35.040The only difference between the one in Ontario and BC, this is the only one we have filed in BC.
00:17:43.140In Ontario, we have actually nine different challenges in the courts that are progressing that cover the same ground as the initial statement of claim filed for BCC.
00:17:59.860What was the process like to get this challenge going?
00:18:03.500Well, it was a huge undertaking and one in which I was happy to rise to the challenge because I knew what was on the line.
00:18:13.460And so, when this started last year, you know, I had to weigh all of the consequences of putting something like this in place.
00:18:22.000And I think for all of us, and I'm so grateful so many more people are seeing the writing on the wall, and that they realize there is no option anymore to sit back and do nothing.
00:18:33.160Our very livelihoods, the future of this nation are relying on it.
00:18:36.680And I have children, and I want hope and a future for my children.
00:18:58.320And how many months has this been, like, I feel like you started this maybe, like, I'm just curious to know how long you've been doing this.
00:19:07.520I, I, I, I, I, my client undertook the challenge in September, but it wasn't until February that they were in a position to retain me.
00:19:19.820I started drafting in March, and this is, this is the statement, the claim, this is the, the, the, the width, yeah, it doesn't show very well.
00:19:39.900So, delineating the facts and coming to terms with setting out the factual matrix in order to go to the court is extremely complex and time-consuming.
00:19:52.000It's not, it's, it's not exchanging a tweet or posting a Facebook or Instagram post.
00:19:57.900You have to set out the facts that you're going to prove in court, and that took 400 pages, including the relief you want, all right?
00:20:05.340So, this is part, this is part of their tactics.
00:20:08.680People say, why aren't so, a lot of lawyers going in to defend people's rights?
00:20:13.300It's, it's a daunting task because they have set up this matrix of deceit, the matrix of deceit and ever-shifting announcements and bait and switch, offering carrots and then pulling them back.
00:20:29.880And so, the other, the other challenge, the other challenge was to procure the necessary expert evidence you will need when you go into court.
00:20:52.520And I know, and I know because of the frustration and the devastating damage that this has caused, that sounds like a long time.
00:21:00.600In the judicial system, unfortunately, that we have, it's a blink.
00:21:04.740And so, it took, it took us, for instance, to get, it took us four months to find appropriate experts to delineate why the PCR test on which they face all their measures is a bogus, fraudulent test.
00:21:23.820The machine is not bogus or fraudulent when used for proper purposes, but it was not meant for the purpose of diagnosing a virus.
00:21:32.600So, that expert testimony, which spans about 110-page expert reports by two experts from England, attaches almost 6,000 pages of other scientific and medical reports to prove that point.
00:21:48.400Now, we've seen across the country about 13 or 14 cases where people rush in where angels fear to tread, go into court with no evidence and get their ass kicked.
00:21:59.400The courtroom is not a social media venue.
00:22:03.660When people email me and post and say, what's your problem?
00:22:16.000And that fantasy, unfortunately, comes from the understandable frustration and horror of being terrorized by our governments.
00:22:26.800This is a very simple, this is a very simple analysis on common sense basis, if you think about it.
00:22:35.740I have a constitutional right not to have medical treatment forced on me.
00:22:41.200So, when in the history of any self-proclaimed free society, do you need to be threatened, extorted, bought, coerced, and incentives of ice cream, hamburgers, tuition, lotteries, to take something that's supposed to be good for you?
00:24:09.060But, Raj, I've already mounted it on the Constitutional Rights Centre website.
00:24:14.440Raj, if you can assist me, here's my landing, here's our landing page at the Constitutional Rights Centre.
00:24:21.880When you get there, you double-click on CRC cases, and then number 31, Action for Canada versus Bonnie Henry, then double-click on that, and you've got the 391-page claim there on PDF.
00:24:59.300What people have to realize, and this is really the most criminal aspect of these measures, the two most vulnerable sectors of society that ironically define the beginning and the end of life are children.
00:25:18.960In particular, special needs children have been completely ignored and left in the corner.
00:25:26.060And literally, these measures, I don't exaggerate, have been torture for them.
00:25:31.840A special needs child or even adult with physical or psychological disability cannot wrap their minds around measures.
00:25:46.200And you would think that the governments, with an eye to that fact, make special provisions so their life aren't held.
00:25:56.060Special needs child suffers because he or she can't go to the same playground, cannot swim, cannot have the therapy sessions that they did beforehand, on and on, right?
00:26:08.540The government doesn't give a frigging thought to that.
00:26:12.040And then, of course, on the other end of life, the seniors in these decrepit long-term care facilities, who, by the way, constitute about 84% of all the so-called COVID deaths, have been literally living in gulags in their own home.
00:26:32.500And people say, oh, yeah, but, you know, you have the hospitals that have special.
00:26:47.660Both the treatment of children and the elderly under these COVID measures, in my opinion, as a constitutional lawyer and a criminal lawyer, constitute crimes against humanity under the Crimes Against Humanity and one Crimes Act that is an act on the books in Canada as a criminal act against these measures.
00:27:09.920The other piece of legislation that's on the books is an act that was passed in 2017 called the Non-Genetic Discrimination Act federally.
00:27:23.700That's a very interesting, interesting act because it was proposed by private members, Bill, and the government of Canada, Justin Trudeau's government, I wonder why, opposed it.
00:27:37.320Not just opposed it, opposed it to the uptieing degree.
00:27:44.120Once it passed, the Attorney General of Canada and the government of Canada went to court to challenge the very same act promulgated by the Parliament.
00:27:56.780And it went to the Supreme Court of Canada, and the Supreme Court of Canada said, no, I'm sorry, this is proper and constitutional legislation.
00:28:04.680It's an act that provides criminal liability of five years in jail, maximum.
00:28:11.800And the government was saying, it's not proper criminal legislation.
00:28:17.260What does that act say under Section 3?
00:28:20.680That it is a criminal offense punishable by fine and a maximum of five years in jail for anyone to conduct a DNA or RNA test to determine whether or not that person is susceptible to transmitting a disease.
00:28:41.180Isn't it all the tests they're conducting for COVID?
00:28:43.300And I wonder why the government, two short years before COVID came down, fervently opposed this legislation.
00:28:54.540So we're going to do our best now to start to lay private information against all individuals who are demanding, insisting, and or administering these tests.
00:29:09.060It's a criminal offense because they don't show anything, and that aggravates the criminality of it.
00:29:19.240With Action for Canada, we're taking this legal action, but previous to this, we were doing calls to action, writing campaigns, and really wanting citizens, that silent majority, to get active, right?
00:29:29.600Because that's, part of the reason is, is we haven't known who we're voting for and where they stand on these issues.
00:29:35.300So you need to get active in this election.
00:29:37.860They haven't, they've been letting every bill pass and everything seep into the schools and let our kids be indoctrinated into the, I call these, these petri dishes of indoctrination at this point, where people should probably be best to pull your kids out of the public school system.
00:29:51.060There's reports that they're losing funding now.
00:29:53.280But right now, to facilitate people, we've got these notices of liability against the PCR testing for employees to employers, parents to protect your children.
00:30:02.340So go to the Action for Canada webpage, and under COVID-19, you'll see a drop-down notice of liability.
00:30:09.520Get in there and start protecting your loved ones.
00:30:13.960Are there any, are there any other questions from media?
00:30:20.080I have one last one, just because British Columbians will be so eager to know this answer.
00:30:26.560In regards to the new injunction, how soon is the court obligated to let you know if they want to move forward with this?
00:30:34.760Yeah, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm not, I'm not going to answer questions of litigation or litigation strategy, or try to predict what the court's going to do.
00:30:43.940It's like asking me if I'm going to win a blackjack.
00:30:46.320The courts, according to the Supreme Court of Canada, are themselves under a constitutional duty to review legislation for constitutionality, to review executive action for constitutionality, and in fact, to review the common law of the courts themselves for conformity with the constitution.
00:31:12.600So, they don't have the discretion to hear or not hear.
00:31:17.020In frivolous and vexatious cases, you can move to strike.
00:31:21.580We'll see if the government wants to move to strike, we'll be there to meet them.
00:31:25.220This is no way they're going to succeed or should succeed in a motion to strike on this claim.
00:31:29.280That's the best I can, way I can answer that, that, that question, Odessa.
00:31:34.840Okay, I just wasn't sure if, I'm not in the court system, if they have a deadline or not, to let you know, I didn't know if there was some kind of deadline that they have.
00:31:44.380Well, the other side, I can't, I'll look it up, it varies from 20 to 30 days, people have to, the defendants have to, have to put in their defense, typically on a statement of claim of this magnitude, you know, they're going to ask for an extension, they're going to get it, right?
00:31:59.360But that doesn't, that doesn't stop me until they, they put in their defense from bringing the injunction on the vaccine passports on the claim.
00:32:18.780Rocco, thank you very much for the press conference.
00:32:21.880It's Dr. Imadji from Bright Light News.
00:32:25.000You made a very compelling argument that this is largely political, what's happening now with lockdowns and vaccine mandates and passports.
00:32:35.220And you also knew the fact that this is abuse of power.
00:32:37.840You mentioned the possibility of a stay in British Columbia, in terms of at least an immediate remedy.
00:32:47.600What's the practicality of that, the success of that stay?
00:32:50.560Because I think a lot of Canadians are asking, well, what can we do in the interim as we're getting abused and coerced?
00:32:56.220And can the stay also be applied to the other litigations as well in Ontario and Canada?
00:33:01.380Well, any stay that we might obtain in BC will not bind the Ontario government or the Quebec government.
00:33:59.000Because that would necessarily mean that the premiers would have no say and no jurisdiction once the Federal Emergencies Act is invoked.
00:34:06.220Number two, the Federal Emergencies Act has embedded very clear transparency provisions.
00:34:15.020The emergencies has to be overseen by a bipartisan committee of parliamentarians.
00:34:21.480Trudeau can't come out like a greyhound dog day and just, you know, make his pronouncements.
00:34:27.920It has to be through measures that are enacted.
00:34:30.520And it would have been easier to take one challenge that affects and binds the whole country.
00:34:36.000And so because they want to splinter and play off, I mean, we at the center have accurately predicted since the start what would happen, not because we have a crystal ball, but because the information is out there and scripted.
00:34:50.120So this latest easing and then bringing back lockdowns, we predicted.
00:35:37.040They know how difficult it is to mount the proper legal challenge.
00:35:41.060So I've said this before, and Tanya said it, and my other clients who are in court have said it, that, you know, a legal challenge, while it can calcify and rally an issue and needs to be taken when there's no other remedy,
00:35:57.300is not the, you know, the waving of magic wand or a silver, or shooting a silver bullet.
00:36:03.180People have to take control over their own sovereignty.
00:36:06.500People have to lead their lives as sovereign human beings with innate God-given rights which are reflected in the Constitution.
00:36:13.900The right to think, the right to think, the right to express, the right to assemble, the right to associate, the right to have their liberty, their life, liberty, and the security of the person not interfered with,
00:36:26.420the right against unreasonable seizure like the lockdowns, and the right to be treated equally under Section 15 and not being labeled a leper because you don't want to take their vaccine.
00:36:42.180So people have to stand up and not sit around in desperation, getting depressed, waiting for others to do something about it.
00:37:09.120I was going to say, you know, I really appreciate what Rocco is saying right now, that you have these God-given inalienable rights to breathe freely.
00:37:17.360You are feeding into the oppression if you are wearing a mask.
00:37:20.900You are not modeling for others what freedom looks like.
