Video surfaced of John Rustad saying his party would 'certainly be participating with other jurisdictions' after being asked at an online meeting in July about where he stood on 'Nuremberg 2.0,' which is the idea that people behind public health measures during the pandemic should be put on trial.
VANCOUVER — British Columbia's Conservative leader says comparing the Nuremberg trials or Nazi Germany to public health measures related to the COVID-19 pandemic is unacceptable and "deeply disrespectful to the memory of those who suffered" in the Holocaust.
Rustad now says he wants to "clarify" his comments made during a conversation with members of the BC Public Service Employees for Freedom group. He says it's a "distortion of history" to compare pandemic public health measures with Nazi Germany or the Nuremberg trials, which sought accountability for the Holocaust.
They have also included a sign erected outside Vancouver billionaire Chip Wilson's home last week, calling the NDP "communist."
