Canadian soldier charged with ‘mutiny’ after calling on troops not to distribute ‘killer’ Covid-19 vaccine
A member of the Canadian Armed Forces has been charged for allegedly trying to encourage fellow servicemen to defy orders in distributing what he called the “killer” Covid-19 vaccine, the Department of National Defence has said.
Officer Cadet Ladislas Kenderesi has been charged with “endeavoring to persuade another person to join in a mutiny” and “behaving in a scandalous manner unbecoming of an officer.”
Kenderesi was charged on May 12 by the Canadian Forces National Investigation Service in relation to an anti-lockdown rally in Toronto on December 5.
“An investigation was initiated shortly thereafter and the individual’s uniform was retrieved in December 2020,” the Canadian Forces said, as reported by Global News on Tuesday.

He applauded those gathered for having the “courage” to come out and tell the government that “tyranny doesn’t rule over Canadians.”
He also referred to a Covid-19 “killer vaccine” with unknown side effects and called on active servicemen, truck drivers and others involved in the jab’s rollout not to assist the distribution efforts.

The charge against him is the first of its kind handed down by the Canadian Armed Forces in decades, according to the Ottawa Citizen.
A GoFundMe page set up to finance the officer’s legal costs said Kenderesi could face up to life in prison if convicted over the alleged offense.
However, local media citing defense sources have said such a severe punishment is highly unlikely.
