Several hundred march through Aylmer for “Freedom”

About 750 protestors, some from as far as Toronto, marched through Aylmer on Saturday, Nov. 7, against COVID-19 pandemic precautions, insisting every Canadian should be free to choose what measures they did or didn’t take. The march started almost an hour later than expected, and by 4 p.m. was heading back to its starting point at East Elgin Community Complex. More in the Nov. 11 edition of The Aylmer Express.

    Interesting to note that not one of the protestors, that I saw anyway, was wearing a poppy.

      Many of them were. Our veterans were also thanked and acknowledged several times in the speeches. Some people need to open their eyes and look around…👀

        Thought you could be right so I looked at all the news reports again. There must be less than one-half of one percent wearing a poppy. They must be standing in the back

          Just like how they “aren’t anti maskers ” but held signs saying “no mask” – not everyone is on the same page apparently

        Meh, all it means is even veterans can be dangerous plague spreading morons.

      The march wasn’t about masks or lockdowns. Masks and lockdowns are however part of the plan being opposed. Get it right from the horse’s mouth and see for yourself. https://youtu.be/n2fp0Jeyjvw
