In this episode, I sit down with Erica and Carter to talk about the Women's March on Washington and why they chose to not vaccinate their kids. We talk about what it's like raising kids in a world where vaccines are required to be given in public schools, and how they deal with it.

00:00:00.000 All right I am here with Erica. Who do you have in your hands here today?
00:00:03.900 My kids Emily and Carter three and four years old. Why did you think it was important to come
00:00:08.380 out to this to this Women's March today? Because I'm the only one who parents my child obviously 0.99
00:00:13.920 with my husband but definitely not with the government. We're not going to be vaccinating
00:00:17.800 the kids we're not going to be doing any of the mandates that they're requiring. We're because of
00:00:23.260 this we've pulled them out of public school so we found a wonderful private school to have them in
00:00:28.140 as well just so none of this will affect them. They don't have any mandates there.
00:00:32.260 It's been a crazy three years. Were you into politics much before this?
00:00:36.220 That's what's so funny. Not really and now definitely am. Yeah and I think it's really
00:00:41.940 interesting that you know as the pandemic as lockdown happened I feel like people who have
00:00:46.460 a real matriarchal instinct and patriarchal instinct really started to kind of take action and started 1.00
00:00:52.580 to like you know get engaged right? Yeah absolutely. I didn't follow really much of anything before
00:00:57.980 but it's sad how political this is when it shouldn't be. No. No not about our kids. Yeah yeah
00:01:04.100 actually I was talking to a young university student and I really love how he framed it because
00:01:07.660 he said I don't really care if people are apolitical but this is the government overreaching on our
00:01:11.980 fundamental rights and that's kind of morally wrong to not say anything about that right? Absolutely
00:01:17.940 and same with anything I find speaking with friends or family you don't even want to talk about it
00:01:22.240 because it becomes political. Yeah. Everything now because they've infiltrated everything every
00:01:28.720 aspect of our lives and that's again why we don't have our kids in public school. Do you watch the
00:01:34.500 news in this country? Did you watch the news in the country? Not too much to begin with and now not at
00:01:39.940 all. I definitely seek out independence. Did you see the the trucker convoy happen last year? What
00:01:44.820 were your thoughts and feelings around that? Oh we were there and my little guy his sign said when I
00:01:48.740 grow up I want to be a trucker. Yeah and then my husband I had stayed home with the kids but my
00:01:54.100 husband went down to Ottawa. Yeah it was fantastic. Over the past three years like what is the one
00:01:59.280 thing that you really never want to have to experience again whether it's like a social
00:02:03.820 division thing or a mandate thing that you had to confront? Yeah just having my kids locked out
00:02:09.440 of things that they want to do that was definitely the toughest part. My husband and I were very
00:02:13.920 fortunate we didn't lose any friends or family throughout all of this they understood.
00:02:17.740 Not everyone's so lucky. No I know that's why I'm very fortunate but when my daughter couldn't
00:02:24.460 go to dance when she couldn't go to a preschool but then that just kind of pulled us and I found
00:02:29.600 independent pod preschools for her and met fantastic people along the way. And these independent pod
00:02:35.180 preschools were these things that already existed or were they kind of growing as these kind of
00:02:39.660 mandates came in? The ones I found started once this came because it was just a group of parents
00:02:46.060 that needed to find somewhere because their kids still wanted to play and learn. So we found that
00:02:50.660 but the school that I have my daughter and my little guy's not in school yet it just started up but
00:02:56.560 someone had this dream for a while having without the mandates it's all about the love for the kids.
00:03:01.980 If there was a politician watching or like a public official like what message would you have for
00:03:08.380 them? If you had like Justin Trudeau in front of you for example like what would you want to say then?
00:03:12.100 Let's not say him. I don't know. There's too much and it wouldn't be good.
00:03:19.300 Just to kind of stay out of our everyday lives and not trying to co-parent with the kids and
00:03:24.720 especially today it's all about the kids. Have you experienced a lot of social division over
00:03:29.840 the past three years and currently and how do you deal with that? My good group of friends
00:03:35.340 they're all vaccinated. They love what I'm standing up for but they just can't believe it. Even when
00:03:41.600 some of them they agreed with the trucker convoy were a little bit vocal at that point online and
00:03:47.840 I'm going to say the hate that they received they were literally like I don't know how you have been
00:03:52.400 standing up for the last two years. Like it is exhausting but they don't understand how deeply I stand
00:04:00.200 with this truth. Like even last year we were supposed to go on our first family vacation. Couldn't leave
00:04:06.120 the country. Had to cancel it and one of my best friends was like really you're not going to go get
00:04:11.060 the vaccine so you can go on this trip? Like have you not been listening to me for the last two years?
00:04:16.800 Like no and it's not just about putting that in my body. It's about showing my kids to this is
00:04:22.840 something that I don't want to do and I'm not going to do it just for to go do something right or to go
00:04:29.760 somewhere. Absolutely not. It doesn't make sense to you you know it's like not something that you
00:04:34.140 feel comfortable doing it's bodily autonomy it's really really simple. I've known two three people
00:04:40.260 that have from it and others injured so it's been it's been a really tough two years and two are within
00:04:46.480 one week. 46 years old and 54. Well a heart attack that you could chalk it up to and another neurological
00:04:53.820 issue that started right after that you could chalk it up to. Absolutely. Of course that's where it's
00:04:59.780 not so black and white right but. I didn't have heart damage before my jab either so. I know a few
00:05:04.720 people here tonight have the sign of Sean Hartman and that was my nephew's friend from Beaton Ontario
00:05:09.500 so there's been a lot. What would you say to to the people who who don't understand your perspective
00:05:15.780 like like how do you try to wake these people up have you given up on them or like you know
00:05:19.740 not not given up I just felt like I've just been doing so much talk like some of them just don't
00:05:27.300 get it even a friend just two nights ago I'm like how do you feel now that I hope you know that you've
00:05:33.360 been so lied to like about the even the efficacy of the scene she's like well I don't know I don't
00:05:40.320 really think I've been lied to it's just they didn't know then you know it's just they just
00:05:46.060 find ways to justify right just like anybody who does bizarre they just find a way to justify it
00:05:53.360 and I think that's what they're doing they've just lived like this for three years being told this
00:05:59.480 again and again that they're not going back I don't know. I made a tweet the other day that I kind
00:06:05.840 of stand by and not so much the people like your friend who are justifying it and saying oh I don't
00:06:12.640 know they got it wrong they got it wrong but the people who are like anti-convoy or like super pro 0.95
00:06:17.680 mandate super pro mask I think that these people have become like the most like the ignorant and 1.00
00:06:25.020 hateful like these are the ignorant and hateful people. Absolutely same with even at rallies last 1.00
00:06:30.660 winter and people drive by in the car like yelling F you like go home stuff like this and I was just
00:06:37.700 like I love you and it made them more angry yeah it was wild to see and we were just there singing
00:06:44.080 oh Canada having an amazing time making amazing human connections they were alone in their car and
00:06:49.700 angry. Visceral hostility it's like where does this anger come from and the other thing is like you
00:06:55.180 are so ignorant of the facts you know like you don't even know what's going on here. Absolutely 0.79
00:07:01.200 I just hope slowly that more people will just start waking up to the truth that's going on
00:07:08.960 same with even even me coming like to the education system like I I knew I didn't really want my kids
00:07:15.080 apart but now I've fully woken up to that whole slew of problems as well so I'm hoping it just takes one
00:07:21.460 or two things and people just a domino effect can keep waking more people up to what's going on and
00:07:26.880 especially the whole movement with the grassroots education system that's coming like I think it's
00:07:32.200 gone up since 2013 53 percent higher demand for it and the problem is I've sent I've signed so many
00:07:40.840 petitions last winter trying to get like a tax credit because that's the barrier people can't afford
00:07:46.420 these schools like they're anywhere from 11,000 to 18,000 for kind of like a basic pod some of them
00:07:55.460 to go to so I mean a lot of families can't afford that and then you're still paying your tax dollars
00:07:59.560 to the public education. Exactly so I'm kind of paying double so if families could get a tax credit
00:08:07.160 back then people could afford this alternative education but of course the government's not going
00:08:11.500 to let that happen we all know that. Is there any inspiring things you see on the political front
00:08:16.740 in terms of solutions and things in terms of things changing? I don't know that's the thing I'm not
00:08:21.060 going to put all my faith in a politician like they're going to come and save me it's what the people do
00:08:26.360 not the politicians they can say what they want yeah some of them say some great things but it's going
00:08:31.940 to be the people coming together that will make a difference that's what I believe. Thanks so much for your
