Orwellian?

Dear Editor:

RE: Entitlement, Aug. 27.

Yes, I will exercise my right to protect my personal information despite the disapproval of Cinda Martin, Judy Wiebe and various bar owners.

Now, in this COVID moment, which dismisses your physician and is devoid of scientific evidence, politics writes your prescription: contact tracing! Contact tracing is not medical treatment. It is an Orwellian tool serving to identify you, where you go, who you’re with and what you’re doing.

And no, my husband and I did not go to this pub “because it met health and safety standards.” We assumed this. We went because they served cold beer on a shady patio on a very hot day.
