Ontario’s Superior Court has upheld Seneca College’s COVID-19 vaccination mandate after two unvaccinated students sought an injunction so they could attend classes and complete their programs.

“We’re very pleased that the court agreed with our approach to creating safe campuses for students, for employees, for members of the community,” Seneca president David Agnew said in a telephone interview.

“I think it will be helpful to organizations that are concerned whether they had a legal backing for their policies … There was a fear way back when, when we were in the early days of putting in mandates. People at that point said, ‘Well, I’m not sure we have the legal authority to do so.’Although the students’ request for a temporary injunction against the vaccination requirement was denied, their legal challenge of the policy will still go ahead.

The students were represented by lawyers from the Alberta-based Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms.injunction application “This is an unfortunate outcome at this point in time, after more than two and a half years of dealing with COVID,” wrote Andre Memauri, a lawyer who represented the students.

Where’s the “science” to support this decision? Even New Zealand has abandoned vaccine mandates. This is about controlling people. Nothing else.

C’mon kids, anti vax paranoia is for losers who dropped out of school around grade 8, like those fools who took over Ottawa last winter. You people are better than that.

We are crossing into a very scary time when an institution can mandate a medical treatment. Mandates should have ended once it was evident the vax failed to stop transmission. There is no vaccinating by proxy happening here. This ruling is for “loss of medical consent”. Socialism

Nazi Canada

The judge was appointed by Trudeau. This is the result of stacking the courts with partisans.

No science to be found.

Trudeau appointed the judge.
