Town of Aylmer declares second state of emergency

November 2, 2020 | 18

The town of Aylmer is officially under a second state of emergency as of Monday, Nov. 2.
The town’s Emergency Operations Control Group made the call due to the potential for civil unrest and service disruptions related to the protests regarding COVID-19 directions, recommendations and orders set out by Southwestern Public Health and the Ontario Government.
A second “Freedom Rally” to protest COVID-19 lockdowns is scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 7 at the East Elgin Community Complex. Mayor French said there may be a potential for a counter protest, and that the state of emergency adds an extra layer of protection for the town.
“Because we have declared a state of emergency, we can call on other agencies – if we need more police, for example,” said Mayor French.
Another function is to protect staff and elected officials from litigious situations, assists with applying or receiving any availability of funding that may come about as a result of the emergency, and conveys the seriousness of the circumstance.
The town previously declared – and is still under – a state of emergency due to the COVID-19 pandemic on March 18.

    This situation has been brewing in the background in Aylmer for a few months. Inactivity by persons in authority over the past few months has led to complacency by a couple of religious groups that have led these groups to believe that there is no pandemic problem and that it is all a hoax. Nothing can be further from the truth. This is a world-wide problem that is not going to go away for many more months or even years. Had offences under the Health Acts and Communicable Diseases Acts been laid without question at the onset of Covid-19 that has disrupted our lives since early this year these protests/rallies may not have materialized.
    A much larger group of Aylmerites exists that are following the rules of engagement for Covid-19 than those who are not. Should a confrontation occur smaller groups usually lose the conflict. Some of our many friends and acquaintances in and around town have said that they will no longer patronize Aylmer businesses because of the stores lack of guts to refuse service to those who refuse to follow the rules. We are surely being swayed to follow suit. Private businesses do not have to follow corporate rules…..so remember that when refusing to wear a mask.
    I have had two heart attacks and a triple bypass and do have shortness of breath but I find no difficulty in wearing a protective mask for the short duration while inside stores in the area. I will certainly have no difficulty in wearing that same mask while shopping in London for what I may buy in Aylmer. If my feelings expand and are felt by others then I pity the local stores that will feel the downward trend in business. I feel sorry for the town of Aylmer over this issue.
    Aylmer was a quiet, nice, rural community. It was a great place to raise a family when we moved here. Now because of a couple of zealous anti-covid factions all this has changed. This is utterly shameful upon those who are causing this to happen to a once fine community.

    Why are we still testing (and for what) and why are we still under lockdown when Health Canada admits, in writing, they have not isolated the virus?

    This is in response to your request made under the Access to Information Act (the Act) for the following information:

    All records describing the isolation of a SARS-COV-2 virus, directly from a sample taken from a diseased patient, where the patient sample was not first combined with any other source of genetic material (i.e. monkey kidney cells
    aka vero cells; liver cancer cells).

    Please note that I am using “isolation” in the every-day sense of the word: the act of separating a thing(s) from everything else. I am not requesting records where “isolation of SARS-COV-2” refers instead to:

    · the culturing of something, or
    · the performance of an amplification test (i.e. a PCR test), or
    · the sequencing of something.

    To clarify, I am requesting all such records that are in the possession, custody or control of Health Canada (for example:downloaded to a computer, printed in hard copy, etc.).

    Having completed a thorough search, we regret to inform you that we were unable to
    locate any records responsive to your request.

    Should you have any questions or concerns about the processing of your request, please
    do not hesitate to contact Barbara Haase, the analyst responsible for this file, either by
    phone at 613-859-9073, by email at barbara.haase@canada.ca or by fax at 613-941-4541,
    with reference to our file number cited above.

        What community standards? Dd is actually providing a community service. Take issue with the info in the posts, if you can, not the poster. Anonymity does NOT change the message. In fact, you are proving that anonymity IS necessary given how those who speak the truth are now treated in this town, province & country.

        Allowing differing opinions is the cornerstone of a free society. Supposedly protecting people from being offended, is not

          Hi Ian, we do not bar differing opinions, but do ask that everyone adhere to our comment policy (see at top of comments).

          Thank you Ian, my handle on this account has always been Dd – and I don’t see how providing my full name to perfect strangers changes the value of my information. The web admin states the name I gave them doesn’t match my associated email, so they already know my full name. I guess I won’t waste my time here any longer. Lots of interesting things are about to happen in Alymer on the 7th, but don’t worry, I won’t bother posting that here.

    The Smoking Gun: What are they even testing for?
    Where is the coronavirus?
    The CDC says it isn’t available
    See Pg.40 under “Performance Characteristics”
    The key phrase there is:
    “Since no quantified virus isolates of the 2019-nCoV are currently available…”
    A further tip-off is the use of the word ‘isolates.” This means NO ISOLATED VIRUS IS AVAILABLE.
    Another way to put it: NO ONE HAS AN ISOLATED SPECIMEN OF THE COVID-19 VIRUS.
    NO ONE HAS ISOLATED THE COVID-19 VIRUS.
    THEREFORE, NO ONE HAS PROVED THAT IT EXISTS.

    Ask yourself WHY they state that at Week 12 (March 15-21) that cases of INFLUENZA ended abruptly?
    Isn't that when #CoronavirusHOAX was declared a pandemic?
    It's the flu folks.

    The Mouth that Roared: Mayor Mary French
    Today’s Freedom March through downtown Aylmer, “bracing” as the headlines read for mass violence and destruction, must have been a huge disappointment for Mayor French. The “impending situation that constitutes a danger of major proportions”, as the law required and as declared by Her Honour, featuring mass violent counter-protests did appear: a grumpy old man with a garden hose sprayed some protesters. The Mayor should be assured that the SWAT Team was not deployed, the burning and looting did not begin, and the rebellion was quelled with a gentleman turning off the garden hose tap. Thanks to the Mayor and her Emergency Declaration, peace, order and good government has been restored to Aylmer, Ontario and its residents can come up now out of their basements, store away their pitchforks and axes, and breathe easy that the town was not about to be burned to the ground and the residents massacred. The day ended with an invitation for a free apple at a local business and all went home, and so ended the perfect metaphor for the hilariously overblown fears stirred up this Corona virus pandemic .
