Well, it's first of all, there's the loss of function. My life has become very small and I would say quite unsatisfactory. I get up in the morning, I make coffee. I go to bed, I get up, I walk the dog, I go back to bed, I get up, I do some errands, I go back to bed. And this is what it has been day after day, you know, throughout the last 5 years. Um, many of my friends have chosen to back away from the friendship because they— even when I became unrecognizable and I couldn't walk They chose not to believe me. So, and they, they, you know, I also come from a journalism background, so many of my associates and former colleagues decided basically to disassociate with me. I'd become somehow socially contaminated because I insisted that what had happened to me was a result of the vaccine reaction, which was in fact confirmed by several doctors.

This, um, uh, report was sent to Health Canada before, you know, the, the clamp on, uh, doctor freedom of speech, or physician, or healthcare freedom of speech really came down in BC.

Dean Allison · 2:45:34

And just tell us about that, um, what the law in BC is, your understanding is.

Patricia Leidl · 2:45:39

There's something called the Healthcare and Occupations Act, which passed a few years ago and, uh, was operationalized on April 1st. And that basically criminalizes any physician or healthcare worker who speaks and who basically spreads misinformation, which is very much in the eye of the government or deemed by what the government chooses it to be. And that also involves the de-licensing of said healthcare professionals and 6 months potentially in jail. And that is now the law in BC.
