Recently, a man was targeted for serving unvaccinated people pizza.
Believe it or not, many things that were once considered normal were then deemed crimes during the scandemic.
One of the victims of the mob mentality and the witch hunt is Jesse Johnson, who had his entire establishment shut down and his life destroyed because he did the unthinkable crime of serving somebody that was unvaccinated pizza.
I'd like to welcome to Slightly Offensive for the First Time, Jesse Johnson.
It's a pleasure to be here, Elijah.
Thank you for having me on your show.
Now, I know this is kind of a dark way to start the show, man, but there's a lot of people who have been through a lot less than you who are just not with us today, for a lack of better words, because the pressure was too much.
Sometimes when that many people dogpile on you and try to destroy your life, it can just take everything out of you to the point where you don't want to live anymore, but you're still with us.
And I'm so happy that you've stuck around and that you're fighting.
So I got to ask from the bottom of my heart, how are you doing right now, genuinely?
It hurt me quite badly, to be honest with you.
And it's taken me quite some time to accept my new position in society.
It was never my intention to be a political figure, to be a dissident.
I only wanted to protect my rights, the rights of my children and the rights of all Canadians.
The hate that I've received over the last year and a half has really caused me to question humanity.
Your life wasn't always the way it is now, where everything was stripped from you.
I mean, you had something really good going for you up in Canada.
Tell me about what your life was like before the pandemic.
What was going on in 2019?
I opened up Without Papers Pizza in 2011, 2010.
And yeah, previous to that, I owned an Italian restaurant that was literally right next door to it called Sugo Cafe Italia.
And that's been my passion.
It's been my livelihood.
It's been all that I've ever known.
Without Papers Pizza was a truly magical place.
I learned a long time ago in the food industry that most people really don't remember the food.
And although we did exquisite food, it was the experience that people remembered.
And Without Papers was truly a high vibration, beautiful chi, high energy place of love.
It was a beehive of activity.
We were one of the busiest places in Calgary.
I had a 60 seats.
On a Friday, I would do 300 covers and sell 500 pizzas.
I was an institution in Calgary.
I was a pillar of my community.
It's crazy because it feels so long ago, even though it was actually not that far in the past.
But during that time, I mean, to take a look at things before the government stepped in and fixed the problem that they created, fixed it.
What did your life look like financially, economically, when you were in control, when your own destiny, your own financial well-being, your own business was in your hands and you were controlling your own destiny?
What did that look like?
I was an outstanding member of society.
I owned, what, I owned four businesses.
I owned three houses.
I had an income.
I employed 40 people.
I had, you know, essentially not a worry in the world.
Although I wasn't rich, I was very comfortable.
I was able to provide for my family and many other families as well.
After they shut me down, I was literally left destitute.
I sleep on the back of a truck now and everything that I worked my entire life has essentially been lost because I believed in freedom and I believed in the equality of all Canadians.
Now, obviously, you didn't have your life flipped upside down simply because you committed some mass crime of fraud and you're getting due justice and punishment.
You were targeted and attacked by a tyrannical regime, but I know it didn't start with getting shut down.
I mean, there was a certain point where we gave way to the tyrants in power.
And so walk me through a little bit about when the pandemic started.
What kind of measures was Canada putting in place and how did they affect your business specifically?
First day of the lockdowns in Alberta and Canada, I believe, was March 16th, 2020.
That was a Monday.
The weekend prior to that, we had live music and the ramifications of the pandemic and the shutdowns were already starting.
That weekend was a terribly slow weekend.
And we went from doing a thousand people on a Friday and Saturday and a Sunday to on Monday being completely closed.
And we stayed closed for a few days to assess the situation.
Nobody knew what was going on.
There was a lot of fear, a lot of pandemonium.
There was a lot of people who were telling us that we should stay closed.
And I was opposed to that from the very beginning.
A restaurant is like a giant wheel.
And once that wheel stops rolling, it's hard to get it rolling again.
So we stayed open and we quickly adapted to doing takeout only.
But it was a surreal environment.
It truly was.
We went from a space that was just this high energy, beautiful, beautiful Zen-like experience to literally just sitting alone in an empty room and handing pizzas to delivery drivers.
It was the saddest moment of my life.
Yeah, man.
Hearing that from you, it usually is not in my nature to try to show emotion at all, but to see you broken like that and to see that taken from you and the way you've responded.
I mean, it's really heavy stuff.
It's heartbreaking, actually.
But obviously, things did change.
There was that dip and then it started to rise.
And they let us open up our own businesses, let us work, allow us to make money again.
And so tell me what happened.
I mean, you opened back up.
What went on?
Without papers, pizza was literally, it was an expression of me.
It was my every nuance, my every eccentricity.
It was my proudest achievement.
I loved it with all my heart.
I could think of no other place to be.
I love the people.
I love the customers.
I love the energy.
I loved everything about it.
And my life is a void without it.
Truly, I don't even know what to do with myself anymore.
Well, obviously, you didn't get shut down immediately.
I mean, there was the implementation of these COVID passports, vaccine passports, as they were called, or vax passes, green pass.
They went by different names in different countries.
But I don't think there was any country that held out longer, even more than Australia, than Canada.
So tell me a little bit about how these vaccine passports developed and how they started to affect your business and lead you down the path that you went on and you're currently battling through today.
Matt, I mean, it was a blur.
We went from doing primarily dine-in to 100% takeout.
The hours were very strange as well.
It seemed like all society had kind of just morphed into this pandemic mode.
We were instead of being open till midnight, we were closing at eight o'clock at night because the phones weren't ringing.
It was, it was, it was truly bizarre.
Yeah, yeah, it was, it was, it was really odd.
But, you know, the odd, the thing about it is that everybody suffered equally, you know, under the oppression.
And after the vaccine passport was enacted, the suffering became disproportionate.
Some suffered whole and others suffered not.
So, you know, the early days of the pandemic, although they were horrifying, for me, they were almost like the good old days, you know.
Yeah, Canada turned into a military state as far as I'm concerned.
The COVID mandates and protocols were insanity.
You had to comply every single place that you went.
Masks were required almost anywhere.
There were some places like BAM, for example, a mountain town that required you to maybe masked out outside in the middle of the mountains.
When it came to September of 2021, that's when the government decided that they were going to enact a passport.
And I was completely shocked.
I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
And what had happened all during the pandemic was they would take a little bit and then stop.
Take a little bit, then stop.
Take a little bit more and then stop.
And it would always give these people a false sense of security, false sense of security.
But you could also, you would always see a pattern of progression that they were just stopping just to sort of let you catch your breath.
And then they were just going to come after a little bit more.
And it was one little liberty taken, one little freedom taken, one little right taken until you had none.
And by the time they rolled out the vaccine passports, I had enough.
We had complied with every ridiculous mandate that they had put forth to us.
You know, clothes open, clothes open, mask, plexiglass, move the tables away six feet apart, just every ridiculous thing you could possibly imagine.
When customers came in, they had to have masks.
When they sat down, they could take them off.
If they stood up to go to the washroom, they had to put them back on again.
It was pure lunacy.
And when they came out with the vaccine passport, I had looked at it as if that this was the final straw for me.
And what this essentially meant is the next thing that they're going to do is literally take away my right to own and operate my business unless I consent to getting that vaccine.
And by that point in the pandemic, I knew that I was never going to take that vaccine.
Now, I got to tell you about something amazing.
I have my best friend, Gunther, and I love him so much.
He's been with me through the thick and thin.
I've even spent money you probably think was stupid to keep him alive.
Many dogs are dying too early and they're obese because you never know exactly what's in their food.
Now, you never knowingly feed your pup mystery meat or spoiled grocery store food.
You know how sensitive their stomachs can be.
But unfortunately, there is one dangerous food that you need to stop feeding your dog immediately.
Now, this food can harm your dog.
It is the number one worst food that you can give it.
However, many dog food manufacturers include this ingredient in their dog foods and is one that most dogs consume on a daily basis.
Both disgusting and something that if you have a dog, you need to listen in because you got to stop.
So why is this one of the most common protein sources in Kibble today?
Well, the dog food ingredient meatmill can be made of spoiled supermarket meat in packing plant scraps.
It's disgusting.
It's reprobate.
I wouldn't feed it to my dog.
Why is it when we grind it up, we think it's okay?
And sadly, it turns out that many dog foods, even ones labeled healthy, contain this mysterious meatme, which is essentially causing more harm than good.
We all love our dogs and many consider them our best friends.
Many of us even treat them better than our own family members.
And your dog needs a high meat diet.
Like all this, we all need protein, which is crucial for their healthy lifespan.
That's why Dr. Marty, world-renowned veterinarian, decided to make his own dog food to combat against these harmful issues.
Right now, guys, if you love your dog, if you don't love him, skip this part.
