Although Saccoccia is listed as a vice president at the company, in 2020 the company stated that that he “is not responsible for the day-to-day operations of the company, nor does he implement any procedural protocols,” and that his “opinions, comments, and actions...are not condoned by the corporation.” Saccoccia lives in King, Ontario, in the Region of York with his wife, Jessica Saccoccia. == Political opinions == Saccoccia believes that public health measures are unconstitutional, and violate human rights. He refers to his group's activities as a "freedom convoy" and attends rallies across Canada, dubbed "freedom rallies", meeting with groups of people at each event, and encourages them to engage in civil disobedience against public health measures, which he calls “united non-compliance.” In 2020, Saccoccia founded a group known as "Mothers Against Distancing" and "Hugs Over Masks" following the outbreak of COVID-19 in Canada, protesting the public health measures introduced by the Ontario government and Toronto Public Health. === Opposition to face masks === Saccoccia alleges that mask regulations such as one introduced by the City of Toronto amount to a violation of human rights, and distributed fake mask-exemption cards. In response, the Canadian Human Rights Commission discouraged the use of the fake cards, Ontario premier Doug Ford and Toronto mayor John Tory warned that Saccoccia's group were "scammers", and confirmed the cards were fraudulent. In July 2020, Saccoccia and 40 activists from his Hugs Over Masks group entered a Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) subway without masks to protest the introduction of a mask by-law on the TTC, again claiming exemption. Soccoccia does not believe the use of face masks is an effective method of preventing the spread of COVID-19. He founded the Mothers Against Distancing group to protest the use of masks at schools, stating the children are "in a constant state of anxiety and fear, so there's no way they'll learn anything". Saccoccia attempted to start a private school, known as "Private-On-Demand Education Inc." without masks and public health measures, arguing that he can "[protect] and save countless children from the government that is attempting to harm them psychologically and socially condition them for a life of fear and compliance.” === Politics === Saccoccia believes that Canadian governments are moving toward communism, and announced that he would be forming a political party. === Legal issues === Saccocia and his wife were charged under the ''Quarantine Act'' on October 6, 2020, after returning from an anti-mask event in Ireland on September 20, and being spotted at a Toronto anti-mask event the following week. They are the first in Toronto to be charged criminally under the act. Soccocia later travelled to the Maritimes and on October 9, 2020 the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) arrested him following a disturbance on his flight into Moncton. He was reportedly scheduled to attend an event in Halifax on Sunday, however he was escorted back to the airport and took a flight leaving the region. On January 24, 2021, Saccoccia was charged with being a common nuisance and four counts of public mischief following an anti-mask event in Toronto. At Toronto Pearson Airport on April 6, 2021, Soccocia revealed to ''Rebel News'' that he had been placed on a no-fly list after Flair Airlines declined to allow him onto a flight to attend anti-mask events in Alberta. On April 18, 2021, Saccoccia was arrested by the Thunder Bay Police Service after an organized gathering. He was charged with breach of undertaking under the ''Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act'', and was released the following Tuesday with a future court date. On April 29, 2021, the province of Manitoba announced it would issue Saccoccia with two $1,296 fines, following his attendance at a rally in Winnipeg on April 25. On May 12, 2021, Saccoccia was alleged to have told fellow anti-mask advocate Rob Carbone that he wished to shoot him and Premier Doug Ford along with every premier in Canada. The incident was reported to the Toronto Police Service on May 19, and a police constable attended his residence in King to effect an arrest. Saccoccia entered a car, drove towards the officer and fled. He later turned himself in at Toronto Police 53 Division and was charged with uttering death threats, assaulting a police officer, and dangerous operation of a vehicle. According to the Supreme Court of Canada Bulletin - June 2020, Christopher Saccoccia, along with others, "were convicted of offences related to drug trafficking for the benefit of a criminal organization and possession of proceeds of crime. == Controversies == Following his arrest in Thunder Bay, Saccocia and his associates demanded free food at a restaurant in Sault Ste. Marie. When the owner declined, the group began to leave negative online reviews at the business. The Forks Market in Winnipeg closed its doors on April 25, 2021, in response to safety concerns caused by Saccocia’s group during a rally. A pharmacy in Maple Creek, Saskatchewan also closed the previous day as a result of the group moving through the town.
