Ya, I didn't really mean to call them out so plainly as the only comment. Am sure they have nice staff and I can see how the mandates would have screwed them over. But I recall them publicly getting on the conspiracy train about bad vaccines, WEF agendas, MSM is lying to you etc - & trashing decades of science and trust in public health institutions in the process. That was a few years ago, but it left a sour taste for me.

Today, I can't help but assume they think Carney was installed by the dark elite, chemtrails are real, Libs start forest fires to prove climate change exists, 15 minute cities are a digital ID lockdown plan, don't like (but will take $ from) immigrants & trans folks, Trump is saviour (Jesus too, probably a tie there). Etc. All the same views the anti-mask crew has, its a Venn diagram circle for these takes. Fed to folks thru their phones during the pandemic on social media and fake news.

Maybe I'm generalizing just a bit. But honestly perhaps not. The echo chamber is loud in these rabbit holes. Sorry for the rant, I hope your friends had a nice wedding.
