Consider the plight of this man: A few hours earlier he was walking quite happily down the street; now he is medicated, vaccinated, and isolated in a mental institution,detained against his will, and reliant on the institution to notify his legal representative that an involuntary admission order has been made against him. It could take a week or more to secure his release, assuming this is even possible. The provisions of the Health Emergency Measures Act could render him permanently detained in that location if the police officer concerned, or a registered medical practitioner, believes he may also be infected with the Covid-19 virus.
