The outrage came fast and fierce on Friday when Ontario Premier Doug Ford announced the latest round of restrictions that included closing playgrounds and recreational park space, banning people from socializing outdoors with non-family members, and giving the police the power to stop anyone to ask where they’re going.
Criticism poured in from doctors, legal analysts, politicians and, of course, regular citizens. Dozens of police services from communities large and small stepped forward to say they wouldn’t be engaging in random stops.
It was not a surprise then that the government walked back the more egregious aspects of the hastily considered rules. On Saturday, Ford posted to social media that they would ditch the random stop measures and the closure of playgrounds — although still keep the other unjustified restrictions on outdoor activities.
What they should have also done was admit they were wrong and apologize to the people of Ontario.
The Canadian Landowner Alliance advocates for provincial legislation that recognizes property rights, and, that the Federal Government of Canada enshrines property rights in the Charter of Rights and freedoms.
