Mayoral candidate Miranda Rocca-Circelli has claimed she ‘did not support a Truck Convoy,’ despite past social media activity to the contrary alongside other anti-vaccine rhetoric
Past support for the so-called “Freedom Convoy” of people opposed to vaccine mandates has come back to dog mayoral candidate Miranda Rocca-Circelli on the campaign trail.
This contradicts her past social media activity, including both overt support and posts supporting various anti-mandate messages the convoy movement promoted. On Sept. 12, 2021, Rocca-Circeli shared an open letter by “Voices of Silenced Okanagan Health Professionals” addressed to various politicians in British Columbia in which they expressed opposition to various COVID-related mandates and measures. In it, they claim:
Rocca-Circelli’s anti-mandate rhetoric appears to have gained traction online, with local Freedom Convoy organizer Jason Laface expressing his support. Punctuated by a heart emoji, he wrote earlier this year that she is “Sudbury’s next Mayor.” The current incarnation of city council was unanimous in expanding its vaccine mandate beyond provincial minimums last year, and both established and have maintained a staff vaccination mandate. The city has also worked with Public Health Sudbury and Districts to roll out the COVID-19 vaccine.
First, I want to be clear, that my personal opinions and perspectives on some topics come from personal experiences for which I will not share because they are private and confidential matters that involve my family. I will also always stand for The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. As the daughter of a first-generation immigrant, who chose this land for the freedoms and rights it offered, I will uphold these freedoms for myself and for my family. Our Charter of Rights and Freedoms is what upholds our democratic rights and is critical to our citizenship.
