The scenario you've listed would be annoying, but probably the exception rather than the norm.

Also is there no law to make it illegal for you to not comply to an officer asking for identification?

I dont know if any of you are familiar with Sam Chui, who is a youtuber who does air travel reviews etc. He's probably the most famous airplane youtuber. In his recent video he flew Emirates which is now using Iris scans for health screening bypass as well as security bypass within emirates own sections and boardings.

If you want to talk about dystopia, a private airline taking iris scans and saving that data for health screening is getting rightttttt up there.. lol
The airline is a private service, they can do whatever the fuck they want imo. And they can deny you also if they want. You can choose to not use their service though.

What you’re talking about is the equivalent to random stop checks. The same shit everyone has been crying about with people who live on the DTES native ppl etc. Only in this scenario they have absolutely no reasoning other than to ensure you live with the person you’re sitting beside. That’s pretty fucking loose reasoning. Also it is not a law yet, simply a recommendation so to have a cop question you at a table in a restaurant is pushing the limits on this police state ppl are hoping for

As I said, and has been quoted, if we are really at that stage, yea, shut everything down because that is rediculous

Yet it is legal for police to pull you over and ask you to show them your drivers license or if you had anything to drink.

I would recommend Broadway, they are currently doing discount on take-out, and I can tell the manager to hook up something for sure for RS members! Just let me know.

How is this any different from the waitress asking for your ID to check if you are old enough to drink alcohol?
It's a very quick and simple request to just pull out your wallet for 20 seconds... not really worth the hassle to refuse IMHO

... or you might become one of those people filming themselves doing things like this lol

They should have been fucking using it all along to explain the measures they were taking. Too many people have been using the excuse “oh I didn’t know” when being asked to wear a mask

I had a buddy messaging a group chat I’m in saying he could have 5 people over for the Tyson fight on Saturday. I let him know he was behind on the new rules and this guy isn’t an idiot.

I agree that people need to be spoonfed the latest info by whatever means necessary so no one can plead ignorance.

An improvement in the daily Covid numbers.

A guy named Ryan Klassen asked a question during Global BC's video broadcast on their Facebook page of Dr. Bonnie's Covid update:

Ryan Klassen: "Anyone know if you can fit 35 inch tires on without a lift..??"

East Indian..
Their typical culture have them living with multi generations in one house.. yet, younger generations aren't taking COVID19 serious and is seen partying everywhere with 0 precaution on safety measure in pandemic.
Diwali (one of the most important East Indian holiday) didn't help in number of new cases either in recent spikes. It isn't just BC.. Yukon is hit hard by returning East Indian from Diwali party in BC carrying covid19 to the territory spreading to the community.

lol there was a guy on News 1130 yesterday, with a very thick EI accent, who was saying how he's very upset that his community is not taking covid seriously and how still too many people think they are invincible, and he's trying to get the message across but it's hard.

Is the attitude really that bad within the EI community?
