Quoted from rwmech5:That's a big issue here with our govt. only funding certain layoffs and businesses. They also have a fine print clause that if you take their money they own a percentage of your business.
Do you have a source for this? Which government owns a percentage of my business?
Quoted from rwmech5:Absolutely disgusting, Calgary police arrest a 21 year old kid playing hockey OUTSIDE. These people in position of authority need to de-escalate situations not make it worse. If this type of thing continues normal citizens will fight back and there aren't enough cops to deal with it. The mayors of cities need to take control of their gestapo.
First off, a 21 year old is an adult, not a child.
Second, he refused to comply with bylaw officers, as he was in violation of a public health order. They asked him several times to comply, he refused.
Police were called, and they asked him for his name so he could be issued a ticket for the violation. He skated away and refused. He was given ample opportunity to give his name when asked, and he refused. So, they attempted to arrested him for obstruction (for refusing to give his name), and when he resisted, they also charged him with resisting arrest.
I'm also still waiting for you to let me know which level of government owns a piece of my business because I accepted COVID support from them.
Quoted from albummydavis:The cops are just doing their job, but if your health dept is so fing power hungry that they have to control an activity like that, in the face of all common sense, then that “law” needed to be broken. Absurd.
The health authority is trying to save lives by controlling the spread of a virus that is extremely contagious, and can kill you. What I find absurd is that some people have zero empathy for anyone else and only think about themselves. Public health orders are in place to protect the public.
You can go for a skate by yourself or with your 'bubble', avoiding contact with people outside your bubble. The rink had a max capacity of 40. People were not complying with the order, bylaw officers showed up to ask people to comply. Everyone did but one, and there were consequences for his refusal.
Quoted from rwmech5:He was not in violation of anything as per the premier and the mayor's own words.
Do you have link to that? I heard what the mayor said at the news conference, and I didn't hear him say he was not in violation of anything. In fact, he said "If there are other people on the rink, you don't have to go home. You can still stay out there. You shouldn't really start lots of big games of pick-up hockey with people around you" which is exactly what they were doing and they were asked to stop.
Quoted from rwmech5:Last time I checked you aren't required to give a officer your name if you aren't in violation of anything. The lawsuit is being filed Monday as per Rebel News.
If an officer is trying to give you a ticket, and you do not provide your name, expect to be arrested for obstruction. The law is there so that people cannot avoid tickets simply by refusing to give their name. If you disagree and believe you are not in violation of anything, we have a process in place where that can be resolved. It's called court. You can show up and plead your case to a judge, and see if he believes your 'right to skate with however many people I want to' trumps the public health order put in place to try and prevent the death and illness of thousands.
Quoted from rwmech5:I also have taken the govt. handout and have until the end of 2022 to repay 30 of the 40k received. If this is not paid in full the feds own a share of your company akin to the auto bailout from 2008-09. It's in the fine print, check with your lender.
My companies loan must be different than yours. My company took an interest free loan from the bank that is insured by the federal government. If my company fails to satisfy the terms of the contract, they may take steps to collect the loan. It's a pretty bog standard loan agreement. At no point would anyone own any portion of the company besides myself.
Quoted from rwmech5:And sorry I have a 21 year old and anyone that age to me is a kid just for clarity.
I understand the slip. I have two myself, and I still call them my kids even though I do know they are adults.
