There have been numerous comments and messages online in opposition to wearing masks at a Wingham restaurant. Below is a response to all those comments, as no more time will be wasted on this issue.

—

This is not a debate or request for input. You will be denied service at Buck & Jo’s if you don’t wear a mask. We don’t care what you heard on the radio. It’s our building, our business, our friends, our customers, our health, our lives and therefore our rules.

Years of smoking tobacco causing yourself breathing problems does not give you the Right to be exempt from our mask policy. Decades of spewing second hand smoke on innocent people does not now give you the Right to breathe/sneeze/cough on more innocent people. Besides, we are all wearing masks so people with breathing issues and other vulnerable people don’t get the Vid and wake-up dead.

Customers only have to wear a mask for a few minutes while ordering or picking up their orders. Staff have to wear them all day. Next time you need to selfishly whine to some front liner about wearing a mask for a minute or two, remember you are likely complaining to someone that has been stuck in a mask for hours upon hours for your Community’s protection.

To be clear, you will be denied service at Buck & Jo’s if you don’t wear a mask.

EOT

Masks are mandatory at all businesses starting this week in Huron & Perth. Masks are now mandatory at Buck & Jo’s, 235 Josephine St. Wingham. 17July2020 the dining room at Buck & Jo’s will re-open.

Text of sign posted in windows and doors:

Wearing means caring!

Masks Now Mandatory

Masks must be worn by everyone over 6 years old, except while consuming food or beverages. Wearing a mask shows you respect and care about your fellow Citizens.

No mask? NO SERVICE FOR YOU!

52 Wingham businesses have banded together and are proactively shaming out of towners for not shopping in their own neighbourhoods in a shop local” campaign. Starting 13July2020 these minority of businesses will be promoting a “Wingham Passport’ to keep track of where and when you shopped.

Wingham Restaurants have overwhelmingly rejected this passport program with 12 out of 15 refusing to participate. Below are the 12 restaurants you are free to attend without harassment of Wingham BIA’s contact tracing passport program.

Bell’s Pizza

Buck & Jo’s

Godfathers

Kfc

McDonalds

Mr. Sub

New Orleans Pizza

Reeny’s

Pizza Pizza

Subway

Thaiville

Tim Hortons

The three restaurants in the “passport program” are the Great China House

As you have likely heard on broadcast media you should stay home to stay safe and not shop in or visit any town other than your own. If you can’t shop local, shop online and help save lives.

Local businesses are spending a fortune bailing out broadcast media with generic messages of shop local” in an attempt to shame people into not leaving their cities and towns and infecting small town Ontario.

Thanks to early failures of our provincial and federal governments

Early this year several business people came forward alleging prejudice, abuse, greed, and rampant self interest of a “religious zealot” that has turned the Wingham BIA into a theocracy protected by a culture of fear and reprisals.

All those that complained named Doug Kuyvenhoven as the dick-tator (-tator) responsible for the abuse and intimidation. As a notorious afterlife scammer that profits from exploiting the superstitious, children, vulnerable and the cowardly it is not a far-stretch to believe he would bring this abuse into the BIA. You may remember this reprobate from the OPP costing meetings where tardboy lied about costing and bashed the OPP claiming to speak on behalf of every Wingham business for which he has yet to apologize.

After months of stalling Hall Of Shamer Doug Kuyvenhoven has finally admitted to what everyone already knew and were complaining about. Below are a series of questions that clearly show that enemy of the People and Hall Of Shamer Doug Kuyvenhoven cares not about any Wingham business, and that lil dougie is desperate to exhaust the budget with the least amount of effort.

Q: What other options were considered before deciding on the sign?

A: None.

Q: What initiatives have the BIA undertaken to promote the downtown core?

A: None

Q: Were all the businesses in town notified there was going to be

$40,000 spent on a sign.

A: No

Q: Were businesses informed the sign would be used for “community events”?

A: No

Q: Were businesses informed that they would not be allowed to

advertise on the sign?

A: No

Q: What “Community events” were going to be allowed to advertise on the sign?

A: Not discussed by BIA.

Q: Which Community groups were approached regarding advertising on the sign?

A: None.

Q: Due to the conflict of interest, will you confirm that the sign

will not be used in any way to promote Maitland River Community Church

or events sponsored by the church?

A: No.

Q: Was there a vote by the businesses regarding the sign, if so when?

A: No.

Q: What future initiatives are being considered to ensure the business

isn’t taken away from Josephine St by development along hwy 86?

A: None.

The current head of the Wingham BIA has responded, but not answered the questions. Doug Kuyvenhoven complains that he is not getting paid and is just too busy to deal with any serious BIA issues. If Doug Kuyvenhoven can’t handle the job, he shouldn’t have volunteered for it.

Why should all the businesses in Wingham suffer because Kuyvenhoven is too filled with apathy or believes the most pressing issue in Wingham are the weeds on Josephine St. town staff refuse to tend to?

“I am not a paid staff person, I am a volunteer. I’ve been extremely busy these last few weeks and do intend to reply to your email tomorrow when I finally have an “office” day. Please be patient and please do not use threats as that isn’t helpful to the dialogue.”

– Doug Kuyvenhoven Wingham BIA Head

We have been more than patient. You have had approximately 4 months to answer these outstanding questions. They are not threats, just consequences if you are not honest and forthcoming with answers to the questions submitted.

Your comment “that isn’t helpful to the dialogue” is hysterical. If you were mature enough to engage in dialogue without covering your ears like a child we wouldn’t be in the position we are in now.

I have a few questions for confirmation and/or clarification focused on the $40,000 digital sign.

What other options were considered before deciding on the sign?

Were all the businesses in town notified there was going to be $40,000 spent on a sign.

What future initiatives are being considered to ensure the business isn’t taken away from Josephine St by development along hwy 86?

The following was sent to the current head of the Wingham BIA.

Mr. Doug Kuyvenhoven I am revoking my permission for you or your designate to cut the grass at XXX Josephine St. No trespass signs will be posted later today unless you are immediately forthcoming with answers to the questions previously submitted, or your resignation. In effect, this patch of land is being held hostage until you are forthcoming with answers or your resignation.

The next step will be an aggressive Public awareness campaign to defund the Wingham BIA and for a change of its leadership, that may include a 4 foot by 8 foot billboard/banner in a prominent place in Wingham. I trust that we have known each other long enough for you to know my level of determination and persistence. Every BIA member MUST be treated equally regardless of your petty grievances or prejudices. If you refuse or lack the capacity to do that, then your resignation is clearly in order.

Mr. Kuyvenhoven I have attempted to get answers to our questions several times. Once at a BIA meeting where you declined to answer, and stated you would answer my questions at the annual general meeting. I attended that meeting and you still refused, in fact you lost control of the meeting and allowed your “business of the year” to scream out that questions were somehow disrespectful.

I allowed you to cut the grass so I could have a discussion with you, but at one point you literally plugged your ears and made noise so you couldn’t hear, much like a small child would do. I have also emailed you several times to no avail. Now that you are not allowed to cut my grass, you should have plenty of time to fulfill your actual BIA duties.

Below are the questions again, they should take less time to answer than cutting my grass.

As you all know the Wingham BIA has $40,000 saved in our warchest for a rainy day. That day is clearly upon us. Currently the BIA head is demanding this money be spent on a sign that businesses would not be allowed to advertise on. That’s right, the businesses that paid for the sign would not be allowed to advertise on it. This money was supposed to be for the mutual benefit of all those businesses forced to contribute.

The Wingham BIA will likely be announcing their unique master plan in response to the apocalypse at their 18June2020 meeting. We have obtained documents showing the BIA is out of money and the recovery plan will have to be funded by the businesses themselves at a rate of $250+/each, as the $40,000 warchest will be flushed down the toilet as Doug Kuyvenhoven demands. There wasn’t even money for hand sanitizer for each business.

Please contact the current head of the Wingham BIA to arrange payment of your new tax, or you will be left out completely.

Fake news”

The government of Canada insists our unemployment rate is 7.8% and may hit 9% in the near future due to JT’s inaction over Covid-19. The real unemployment rate is closer to 40%.

The 3,400 lives Justin Trudeau has cost us is just the tip of the iceberg, as many of the ripple effects of his dereliction of duty have yet to manifest.

FACTS:

10,000,000 have applied for CERB ($2,000/month hush money)

Canada has a population of 37.6 million.

68.9% of the population is of working age (15-64)

Canada’s labor force consists of (37,900,000 X .689) = 26,113,100‬ humans.

(10,000,000 / 26,113,100) 38.29%

Doug Ford’s inaction and refusal to take the COVID-19 threat seriously until now is going to cost tens of thousands of lives. Doug Ford telling Ontarians to go on March Break and travel, and his slow action on lockdown and physical distancing advice will cost lives, that is the sad reality of government inaction. For this Doug Ford has been added to the Hall Of Shame. Look at the US and how bad things are there, hundreds of thousands of lives could have been saved.

We don’t need more Covidiots making things even worse. All those charged/named in police press releases with violations of the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act (EMCPA) will be automatically added to the Hall Of Shame. A few local businesses have failed to comply with the order and one restaurant even had it’s dining room open after the order, with staff that recently returned from vacation abroad.

This virus is the great equalizer of all Humanity. Those that thought they were better than everyone else (snobs) now find themselves dependent on those they ridiculed and took for granted. Every cog in the machine is as important as the next, take one away and the whole system is likely to fail. Minimum wagers, janitors, truck drivers, chicken catchers, farmers, cashiers, stock boys, yellow vesters, volunteers, etc. now find themselves recipients of new-found respect, admiration & empathy for keeping our Communities functioning and food on our tables.

For non-compliance to the EMPCA please call your local police or the OPP at 1-888-310-1122.

During these historic times firefighters and police officers around the planet are standing in solidarity with Health-care Workers by lighting up sirens and lights around hospitals during shift change (many at 7pm). Citizens post signs, bang pots, applaud, sing, cheer, etc. to show their appreciation while maintaining physical distancing.

Health-care workers see their colleagues succumb to Covid-19 around the globe yet still show up to fight for our lives. It would be similar to a firefighter dousing flames every second on the job, or a police officer facing live fire every second on the job, hence the unprecedented global movement by them showing respect and appreciation.

This global respect and promotion of health workers to the top tier of our hero hierarchy is well deserved and long overdue. Sadly and expectedly, North Huron council and senior staff have abandoned our heroes.

North Huron will not be offering Health-care Workers daycare despite an apparent request to do so. North Huron has plenty of idle staff and facilities to provide this much needed service for our essential workers. North Huron council can’t be bothered, mainly since they can’t get their photo in the paper for doing so due to physical distancing measures we are all supposed to abide by. If they could have gotten their photo in the paper while cutting a ribbon to open the daycare they likely would have shown our Health-care Workers the respect they deserve.

Please share this post to bring as much attention to this as possible in the hopes NH will be shamed into doing the right thing.

North Huron’s tax rate that is double most areas has crippled the business environment to the point they have to pay businesses to open. Things have gotten so bad over in Clinton, last year they paid 10 businesses to open, forcing all the other businesses to pay for it via taxes. Being forced to pay your competitions bills is wrong on so many levels and proves the system is broken. Things are so bad in Clinton they even paid people to shop in those stores! They gave away $1,000/ea to ten people to shop in those stores, democracy and capitalism is dead.

North Huron is again giving away taxpayer money to someone in an “in it to win it” aka “Parasite for a year” contest. Clearly the winner must be blindly loyal to council, the Wingham BIA and encourage their customers to do the same.

Countless law-abiding people have come forward stating they have been warned by some very creepy people” that they are not allowed to enter Buck & Jo’s (235 Josephine) or they will pay the price for doing so. For Wingham business owners it means a boycott of your business if you are seen entering. For crossing guards employed by North Huron it means you will suddenly find yourself looking for work. For seniors and church goers it may mean your criminal/corrupt friends will shun and ridicule you.

Those business people that were warned about going to Buck & Jo’s and have become regular customers since then are some of the best People our Community has to offer. They can think for themselves and are willing to stand up against the criminals/corrupt in our Community.

Those business owners that have drunk the kuyvenhoven kool-aid and literally walk up and down Josephine St passing on the same warning they received to everyone they run into

Buck & Jo’s is closed and will reopen Wednesday18Mar2020 for takeout only. Online ordering and a pickup window will be available in the coming days as well.

Buck & Jo’s dining room and restrooms will not be open to the public until the health crisis has passed.
