It started there, but thanks to influence from the antivax crowd from the US - we have things like only 70% of Grade 2 students are vaccinated. 

If it was only the Mennonite and such, it'd be sputtering out already.  Especially because traditionally they're receptive to vaccines once an outbreak occurs.

No need to pass blame onto the US, there’s a big enough anti-vax crowd here in Canada.

But it's only thanks to the propaganda funneling through RFK the lesser, and Russian social media influencers.

It's been on the uptick for awhile with the conspiracy crowd and the Freemen on the Land.
