First post so forgive me if I screw it up. I'm a Canadian living in Ontario. Our provincial government just laid out the guidelines for re-opening. Three stages, that are all dependent on how many people are vaccinated. It's pretty obvious to me what's going to happen next. Either not enough people get vaccinated to meet the criteria or there's a manufactured 4th/5th/6th wave of the virus. Either way, the government has set it up so that whatever happens, the un-vaccinated will take the blame. I'm sure vaccine passports and severe restrictions on un-vaccinated people will follow. I'm mentally and physically preparing for a time when I may not be able to legally leave my house or get access to services. I live in a VERY liberal area. Other than my partner and I, I only know of one other person that hasn't been vaccinated (due to cancer treatment). Does anyone have any advice (from a legal or support perspective) on how to get through this? Canadians are generally a very compliant people and are unaware of the fascist techniques being used on them. Not only do they support the government, they thank them for keeping them safe. I can envision a time where my neighbours, family and friends may become verbally and physically hostile because we're standing in the way of them getting back their freedoms. I trust the plan but it's taking a lot longer than I thought. Sorry for the long post but it feels good to actually type it out. I appreciate any advice you can give.

I am a Canadian as well and completely understand your fears. I can see a time in the not so distant future where the vaccinated will turn on us. I hope it doesn’t come to that. I live in a smaller town (Kingston,ON) and it’s no better here. Everyone I know except my sister has been vaccinated. I have a 12 year old I am trying to protect from all this and it’s incredibly stressful. I signed her up for online school because I’m terrified they will vaccinate her without my consent. I told the school board I feel I have to choose between her health or her education. I think a lot more people need to get involved at the local levels. I don’t believe waiting around for Trump to save us is going to work. I have applied for jobs in Florida and would leave in a heartbeat if I could get a job in the U.S. and escape this tyranny. I believe all of our premiers have either been bribed or threatened. I pray everyday that this nightmare ends soon.
It's terrible what is happening. I pray that things work out for you and your child.
