Health Canada announces a new, standardized national proof of vaccination policy that will ensure everyone gets all of their children are vaccinated by mid-November. Health Canada also announces that all provinces and territories have agreed to move forward with a standardized national vaccination policy.
00:00:00.000First of all, let me remind everyone that every vaccine administered in Canada is safe and effective as evaluated by Health Canada.
00:00:15.040Like any modern bit of medical advancements, there are potential side effects in vaccinations.
00:00:25.340Remember, these vaccines are safe. They've passed Canada's world-class standard for medical approvals.
00:00:31.340And there are people who've probably gotten very sick from vaccinations.
00:00:35.340Well, if everyone else gets vaccinated, they will be kept safe. You will not be safe.
00:00:40.340Two of my own children have now contracted it. And this morning, I learned, I tested positive for COVID-19.
00:00:48.340Proof of vaccination will be required by no later than the end of this month for all federal employees.
00:00:55.340And by mid-November, enforcement measures in place will make sure that everyone is vaccinated.
00:01:03.340And therefore, while not forcing anyone to get vaccinated, I chose to make sure that all the incentives and all the protections were there to encourage Canadians to get vaccinated.
00:01:16.340While not forcing anyone to get vaccinated, and today I'm happy to confirm that all provinces and territories have confirmed that they will be moving forward with a standardized national proof of vaccination.
00:01:42.340While not forcing anyone to get vaccinated, I can understand frustrations with mandates, but mandates are the way to avoid further restrictions.
00:01:52.340While not forcing anyone to get vaccinated, if you joined the protests because you're tired of COVID, you now need to understand that you are breaking laws.
00:02:05.340The consequences are becoming more and more severe.
00:02:10.340You don't want to end up losing your license, end up with a criminal record, which will impact your job, your livelihood, even your ability to travel internationally, including to the U.S.
00:02:23.340while not forcing anyone to get vaccinated.
