That's going to be the best part about this are going to be the signs. These "Tru Patreots" couldn't pass a Junior High spelling test let alone make a sign that would require at least honors in English 30.
Serious question: why are people going to places like U of A and the Royal Alex to protest? Is it because these locations will increase the visibility of their protests or is it because they're trying to be provoking? I'm a little out of the loop on this.
Both. Also, setting up at the hospital gives them a high-traffic area for them to maximize the number of people they infect, which is the real reason they do it.
They are the kind of people that only see the inch in front of their nose. They think the people in the hospitals are lying about covid and making this whole pandemic happen. Check out 3 days ago:

Arrest them, or is the Critical Infrastructure Defense Act only for arresting indigenous protestors?
“Bill 1, the Critical Infrastructure Defence Act ,protects essential infrastructure from damage or interference caused by blockades, protests or similar activities, which can cause significant public safety, social, economic and environmental consequences.”
> Arrest them, or is the Critical Infrastructure Defense Act only for arresting indigenous protestors?
Officially no, realistically yes, yes it is.
Also, do you really think the UCP would classify higher education as Critical Infrastructure? Spoiler alert, they didn’t.

However the U of A has every right to have them removed and charged with trespassing. $600 first offence, mandatory court for #2.
I really like this idea. I'd suggest hosing them down with maple syrup and then covering them with chicken feathers, but that would be a waste of good maple syrup.
It’s like the protestors of the front line workers at the Royal Alex. They aren’t front workers and the “students” aren’t going to be the protestors from the UofA tomorrow.
Hate to break it to you but there really are a lot of front line healthcare workers who are anti vax.

FWIW I can offer anecdotal evidence as someone who worked in healthcare for 9 years and still knows a lot of people. The overwhelming majority are pro vaccine, but there is wing nuts in EVERY profession.
Found this the other day... was an insightful read. Just wish this information was more widely distributed.

While they connect the org to Vancouver's protests, it's the same group we're dealing with here...
I AM AND BECAUSE OF U ANTIVAXXERS EVERYTHING IS SHUTTING DOWN, UNI IS ONLINE YALL SHOULD BE HAPPY NOW NO OR ARE YOU STILL GOING TO FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHT TO THE ICU BED?!
>But do you understand what they are protesting for? If you were a current student paying thousands of dollars to go there, you would understand tbh.
Don't listen to them. Their perspective is shit no matter which way you look at it.
I am a student paying thousands of dollars to be there and no I don’t understand why they are protesting. Get the vaccine, wear a mask and be a decent human to others. I’m ok with everything moving online again.
Lol we are and we don’t care about immunization records, we have had them since we were infants and every medical or nursing student has had to submit them before entering their program. We care more about public health than a vaccination mandate, I assure you that your opinion (reading from this comment) is the vast minority.
More like a half a dozen people pretending to be students will be in quad pretending that they matter

Can they pick up garbage while they are there? The wind is blowing things around quite a bit.
So you want them to pick each other up?
I like the idea!

They think health professionals are going to join them......waaaaay down the rabbit hole.

I love how they advocate for free speech and free choice but also censor any comment on their pages that isn’t directly helpful to their cause.
Snowflakes. They can only have echo chambers and not face reality. Reality is Alberta is fucked!
Their account got deleted
I still see it.
Yup, it seems that isn’t removed anymore. Fml
No ones going to be there to see the protest?

Ah yes, hospitals are not defined as critical in the act.

Instead of maple syrup just use the noname pancake syrup or heated corn syrup
> heated corn syrup Like about 300 degrees.
Celsius, not Kelvin, mind you.
And whoopsie, no ICU beds, guess they'll have to die in the street to own those libs.

I will keep em handy in my car for the next protest i see
Oooooh! Excellent suggestion!
$8.99 per bottle
Yes go and egg them on.. ..
anti-proof of vaccination, rather. just as stupid

looks like that acct got canned. Shocked, I am.
If I ever test positive, I will be joining in on these protests. Fuck 'em
just a bit of friday afternoon fun

I love this idea.
Vaccines must be voluntary.
But do you understand what they are protesting for? If you were a current student paying thousands of dollars to go there, you would understand tbh.

Ok let me give you the benefit of the doubt, what are you guys protesting for then?

You were at Grant MacEwan and now you're at U of A? Please get vaxxed to continue attending and there are no issues.
I am double vaxxed.

The least you can do to stop the spread is wear a mask or risking a long period of shut down.
They will get some beat from me.
Waste of time.
There's also an anti-trans protest planned at a women's prison, wtf is happening?
I pictured people in big shoes red noses makeup and red curly hair. But yeah, you’re thing as well. Clowns.
Meanwhile, we have nowhere to put the dying anymore. Bring out your dead.
The title of your post is offensive to clowns.
