A Kelowna restaurant that was forced to close last week after refusing to comply with the provinceѻýs COVID-19 vaccine passport program is now up for sale.
On Oct. 8, Interior Health (IH) ordered Renegade Kitchen and Craft Bar to cease operations due to non-compliance with the public health order.
ѻýWe are choosing to remain an inclusive place for all of our staff and guests,ѻý the restaurant wrote in a social media post in mid-September. ѻýWe are not anti-vaxx, but we are anti these health cards as they are causing such division and exclusion in our community and society.ѻý
