Kenderesi was told he was not being punished for his personal views, but for participating in \u002D\u002D and publicly expressing his support for \u002D\u002D anti\u002Dvaccine…

Officer Cadet Laszlo Kenderesi delivered the apology at the start of an unprecedented court martial, where he was issued a severe reprimand and $4,200 fine after pleading guilty to conduct to the prejudice of good order and discipline.Sign up to receive the daily top stories from the National Post, a division of Postmedia Network Inc.By clicking on the sign up button you consent to receive the above newsletter from Postmedia Network Inc.

The case related to a speech at an anti-lockdown rally in Toronto’s Dundas Square on Dec. 5, 2020, in which the 60-year-old cadet instructor appeared in full military uniform and spoke out against what he called “killer” vaccines. The Armed Forces had only days earlier received formal orders to start planning for the distribution of vaccines across the country, as Health Canada entered the final stages of reviewing vaccine candidates from Pfizer and Moderna.

In a separate affidavit read into the record, court heard Kenderesi was born and grew up in Hungary while the country was under the Soviet Union’s influence, and that the COVID-19 lockdowns in 2020 affected him both emotionally and financially. “Discipline is the quality that every CF member must have, which allows him or her to put the interests of Canada and the interests of the Canadian Forces before personal interests,” Besner said.

Did not know it was illegal to speak out agains a vaccine with no long term data that was developed by Pfizer a company that had to pay out the biggest settlement in history for health care fraud. Canada is a joke of a country.

Canada is now a communist country with no freedom of speech or expression if the government does not like what you think or say you will be punished by our learning disables leader and his criminal government.

Do we still punish him now after he was proven correct?

No, can't have any dissenting opinion, can we....

Good

Officer Cadet, not a commissioned officer. Wearing a cap badge “Cadet Instructor Cadre”, to supervise youths ages 12-19 in Army, Air or Sea Cadets. Not a good example of discipline.

Covid zealotry is a fucking cult in this country

Medal for him

Give the guy a medal.

Very lenient—lucky guy. Insubordination and incitement of mutiny are not insignificant offences.

My employer doesn’t like me bad mouthing their policy initiatives either go figure.

A military person who is speaking out against Covid-19 mandates is defending their country which is their role in society.

Military people should never be treated this disrespectfully especially by people who haven’t worked as hard as them.

Shameful. No free speech in Canada.

Enough of this crap. Covid is not a military doctrine, is it?

A good number of these cadet officers are Walter Mitty's. They like to play tough soldier with impressionable youngsters but have no real military experience.

It's OK for Trudeau though TrudeauMustGo HonkHonk2022 🚛🚜🚚

And TRUDOPE hams it up at queens funeral!get real

compromised military leadership should all be in jail

I’d rather listen to an Officer Cadet who has zero impact on my life and Canadians over TrudeauMustGo a leader of a country violating Canadians CCRF. TrudeauIsDestroyingCanada

So, you’re saying he’s wrong in inform and right without it? Like freaking really? Canada

Did he say that they were 'safe and effective' because that would be something to get reprimanded for.🙄 BTW, TrudeauMustGo TrudeauMustGoNow

Good

'anti-COVID vaccine comments'

Seems about right.

He actually deserves a medal!!!!!!

It's a good start.

The communist truth ministry doesn't want to hear any old truth. It must be the liberal-lie truth approved by Comrade Trudeau.

Fuck this country just keeps stooping to new lows.

Good

Safe and effective

Do not disobey the Führer

Paul Mitchell (PaulMitchell_AB) The smoking gun… The Trudeau Liberals were dead wrong about their Covid-19 vaccine assumptions and policy. They knew they were wrong And, they kept moving ahead anyway. The Trudeau Liberals are despicable.

He did the honorable thing. The Canadian military did not sign up to distribute untested, unapproved gene therapy experiments to Canadian citizens. The more we say NO to authoritarian deceit, the faster true change will happen on planet earth.

For what the damn garbage Vax is killing kids young adults and old folks. go to court sue Trudeau

Aah freedom of speech is not a thing in Canada. But freedom of song is? Weird.

But at least our PM supports freedom of expression in Iran

Why is he not being dishonourably discharged?

No more freedom of speech
