This weekend, guests at the packed Vancouver restaurant Corduroy greeted health inspectors by chanting, "Get out!" The owner of the restaurant expresses skepticism towards the inspectors, asking them, "Who do you work for?" "You see the signs on the door there," she continues. "You understand what you're doing here? You're trespassing on my private property."
One inspector tells her he disagrees. "You don't agree. Okay," she says. Suddenly, the sound of chants drowns out the conversation. "Get out! Get out! Get out!" the patrons yell in unison, their voices increasing in volume and speed. The health inspectors leave, and the entire restaurant erupts in cheers and claps.
According to CTV News, health inspectors were sent to Corduroy after several complaints were made about the restaurant's practices. Indoor dining is currently banned in British Columbia, but Corduroy allegedly served customers Friday and Saturday. Since then, a full closure has been ordered on the restaurant.
