WEYBURN - A Weyburn protest group, "We Are Free", held a tailgate petition-signing party in the City Centre Mall parking lot on Friday evening.
An estimated 100 people came by during the evening, with the date picked as the first day that the province is allowing businesses, health care facilities and many public events to require proof of COVID vaccinations to gain entrance.
The goal is to present the petition to the Weyburn city council at some point, said an event organizer, to let them know "it's not okay" that some people feel like second-class citizens by being shut out of facilities and events just because they haven't had a COVID vaccine.
