Casino executive and actress plead guilty after flying to Indigenous community for Covid vaccine

Canadian millionaires who charted a private jet to a small First Nations settlement for Covid vaccines admitted to violating local pandemic restrictions, according to reports.

Former gambling executive Rodney Baker and his actress wife Ekaterina Baker, of Vancouver, pleaded guilty to violating the Civil Emergency Measures Act that required people to isolate for 14 days after entering Yukon, according to court records reported by The New York Times.

The couple received a backlash in Canada after extensive media coverage about the "wealthy white couple" who took vaccines intended for elderly Indigenous people.
