The case for and against vaccine passports can be as polarizing as lockdowns. — via healthing_ca

“That said, we hear that QR codes are being shared between people,” said Olivier Bourbeau, vice president, federal and Quebec affairs at Restaurants Canada. “So it is extremely difficult to be 100% sure the person in front of you is presenting a proper QR code ,” he said in an email, though they can be checked against photo ID.

Throughout the pandemic, governments and public health authorities have based decisions on the population as a whole, she said. “We could have done things differently right from the outset. We might have said everyone over 65 has to stay home, and the rest of you can go on and live your lives. Because at least at the very beginning — I know now variants have changed things — at least at the very beginning it was really those people that were most seriously at risk from COVID.

In the absence of government guidelines, can private businesses just go it alone? That depends, Zwibel said. Generally, a private business doesn’t have to serve you. “They can refuse service, as long as they don’t refuse service based on a prohibited ground of discrimination under our human rights laws,” for example, such as religion or creed.

“The fact that you’re not allowed at your local gym doesn’t prevent you from just running outdoors, or at home,” Joly said. “That’s less important, less intrusive than not being allowed to work, or prevented from going into some public services establishment, like to renew your driver’s license. That would be a much bigger problem.”

healthing_ca We ALREADY have vacination records! Why is it so fing hard to ADD the covid vaccine that card? Or, use the last page in our passports to stamp for the covid vaccine! We NEED these to get our lives back! F$%k ppl don't you get that yet!?!?! GetVaxxed

healthing_ca I got my 1st dose (moderna). Still dont agree with this one bit. I had some really worrying side effects ever since (1 month). Im scared of getting my second because I've been having heart/chest pains. Im for covid tests to travel but not passports

healthing_ca Business turning away 30 to 40 % of there business. I think not or you won’t be in business very long. Only ignorant racist people think this way about unvaccinated people.

healthing_ca Important for international travel not to be used at home. We can practice the protocols at home to be safe!

healthing_ca It's nothing short of bloody mind-bending that morons on the political right - and that includes YOU NP - don't understand the difference between health confidentiality & privacy concern differences between a CONDITION or a TREATMENT & a vaccine. A quarantine order is a higher

healthing_ca Once upon a time, you never traveled without your immunization passport. Canada's was yellow with a black binding. Prior to travel, you'd visit your GP; obtain any booster shots required, and get your immunization passport updated. It's easy, and now more necessary than ever.

healthing_ca CCPVirus the COVID19 is the UnrestrictedBioweapon which ccp made in wuhan lab and spread to Canada It is time to ask the ccp pay for this! it is time to ask the ccp give the Antidote! None vaccine work for the bio weapon!!!

healthing_ca This is why the National Post puts out these articles every day now. They want forced injection in place now, so they can keep adding more and more shots to the list, when is there too many? Say no. This is a pre-pandemic article and even more true today.

healthing_ca Internationally yes ... Domestically.. no

healthing_ca 'polarizing' you guys are so short sighted... *glad you don't realize we read history... and know the term 'authoritarian fascism'

healthing_ca We needed vaccination card (proof) to travel in the past. Schools asked for vaccination records. What is the big deal? I am all for vaccination card (passport) or whatever you want to call it

healthing_ca Better say yes Trudeau cuz look at the past few weeks 5 presidents of various countries who said no to vaccines & passports have all died not being reported things that make u go hmmm this is brutal feel like we r turning into a version of Handmaids tail

healthing_ca Much ado about….

healthing_ca When their own elements are rehearsing the shortage of effectivity of the shots vs newer versions & upcoming fall & winter, then why would they pester around like money-hounding sadists for dividing the system into further inefficiency What is it to achieve with this?

healthing_ca Media is also responsible for promoting loss of freedom! This what our children are becoming. Government controlled!

healthing_ca I am all for it!

healthing_ca What is the point of giving people a vaccine if you have no reliable way to know if they have gotten it?

healthing_ca Narrator: there literally isn’t a single case ‘for’ something unconstitutional.
