It’s about the right to exit. A situation where people sit by while basic rights are eroded for others is most likely to happen when there is a rationalization for reasonable people to support it. See also: the NSA mass surveillance program after 9/11.
- maxerickson 5y agoWhat 'right to exit'? I guess you are probably free to walk into an ocean regardless of vaccination status, I'm not sure what other situation post implementation of the international passport system would reasonably be described by a 'right to exit'.
- gfodor 5y agoGiven how common it is for countries with oppressive regimes to bar or heavily restrict exit, it is noted in article 13 here: https://www.un.org/en/about-us/universal-declaration-of-human-rights https://www.un.org/en/about-us/universal-declaration-of-huma... The point is if another destination would have you, it is a violation of your right to be unable to freely exit. If hypothetically Canada did not allow you to board a non-chartered plane to emigrate I would argue this would be encroaching if not outright violating this right.
