Alberta Woman Files $10.5 Million Lawsuit Against Government and CBC Over Alleged Misinformation, Negligence, and Suppression Over COVID-19 Vaccine Safety

Carrie Sakamoto, a 47-year-old mother from Lethbridge, Alberta, has filed a $10.5 million lawsuit against the Canadian government and the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC).

The lawsuit alleges negligence, misinformation, and suppression of vaccine injury information related to COVID-19 vaccines.

Carrie Sakamoto, a mother of three, claims to have suffered significant physical and psychological harm, including permanent Bell's Palsy, as a result of following the advice and information provided by the government and the CBC regarding COVID-19 vaccines.

Empowered Canadians and The Institute for Freedom and Justice are supporting Sakamoto in her legal action.

The lawsuit, filed in the Court of King's Bench in Lethbridge, Alberta, targets several entities, including the federal Minister of Health, the Chief Public Health Officer of Canada, Health Canada, the Public Health Agency of Canada, Dr. Celia Lourenco, Alberta Health Services, and the CBC.

The allegations include negligence, dissemination of false and incomplete information, and censorship of reliable information about vaccine injuries.

The lawsuit also accuses health officials of misfeasance in public office.

The lawyers representing Ms. Sakamoto highlight in their court filing the alleged rushed changes made to vaccine safety standards at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. They assert that while the government and the CBC assured the public of the vaccines' safety and efficacy, the approval standards were altered, removing the requirements for vaccines to be both "safe" and "effective." It is claimed that the government acknowledged the rushed contracts with manufacturers and the inclusion of additional indemnities in favor of the manufacturers.

The lawsuit argues that the defendants intentionally built a relationship of trust with the public, aware that people would rely on their information for their health and safety during the vulnerable and fearful period of the pandemic. It asserts that Sakamoto suffered harm as a result of relying on the representations made by the government and the CBC.
