Adam Skelly exclusive update constitutional challenge "Reopening Ontario " Act and EMCPA

Summary of expert reports

As you may have heard, the City of Toronto and Province of Ontario came down on Adam Skelly in an unprecedented heavy handed attack. For daring to dissent, attempting to make a living, employing many at his three Adamson Barbecue restaurants and engaging in non violent civil disobedience, the government brought six separate legal proceedings against him including:

- Provincial Offences Act tickets
- a section 22 order under the Health Protection and Promotion Act
- the illegal seizure of his property and premesis, and invocation of the Trespass to Property Act
- the deployment of 250 police officers, including the mounted unit, to arrest and criminally charge him with trespassing on his own property, mischief and obstruct peace officer
- a section 9 injunction under the "Reopening Ontario" Act
- many more POA tickets against him and his father for operating 1 location without a business licence

Why? To single him out. To make an example of him. To punish him. Adam became the first person in North America to be arrested for disobeying unlawful and arbitrary public health orders. In the age of Canadian government COVID-19 totalitarianism and tyranny, dissent and debate are no longer allowed.

Under Bill 195,‘The Reopening Ontario Act,’ the government can then continue the state of emergency for an indefinite number of years one year at a time by a vote of the legislature, in which Ford’s Progressive Conservative Party has a majority.

The Canadian Civil Liberties Association described this as allowing Ford’s administration to “maintain the existing emergency powers while freeing the executive branch of effective democratic oversight.” Ontario is the only province or state in North America with such a law.
