Canada Day issue

Dear Editor:

It is interesting that Black Lives Matter shut down part of the streets in Fergus to allow for people to do a protest march.

However, we are not allowed to have a parade to celebrate Canada Day, which is for all Canadians, because of the COVID-19 virus.

Does council think that the Black Lives Matter is not a virus concern and that is it more important than celebrating our national heritage?

How can council approve one event and not the other?
