00:00:00.000 in Ontario and other jurisdictions that have implemented a vaccine passport system there are
00:00:09.480 a number of different businesses and facilities that have publicly announced that they are not
00:00:13.860 going to be going along with it they will not be enforcing the vaccine passport and those businesses
00:00:19.260 while they've they've publicly outed themselves have been identified they're being discussed on
00:00:23.280 social media but another interesting phenomenon is the number of businesses probably a much larger
00:00:29.040 one that are simply not doing it they're not announcing it they're not making a big deal out
00:00:33.720 of it but they're just saying this thing isn't for us and we're not going to go through that I've heard
00:00:39.020 a lot of anecdotes from people about experiences all across Ontario I had one friend say yeah my
00:00:44.280 gym just never asked for it I've been three four times since it was introduced and just nobody brings
00:00:48.840 it up I had an interesting experience I want to tell you about the other day I was at a at a fast
00:00:54.140 food restaurant one of the largest fast food chains in the western world I'm not going to end the place
00:00:58.820 and it was in a community it was in a city just north of Toronto and I'm not going to name the
00:01:02.760 city because I know there's a lot of people who would like to make a big scene out of all these
00:01:06.480 minor little stories and I go into this place and I'm there with a friend and we go in and we go and
00:01:11.480 we sit down and then at some point while we're seated not immediately but after we've been there
00:01:16.180 for a little while one of the employees she comes up to us and she says hey did you guys get the
00:01:21.880 vaccine it's kind of a weird question that's not saying can I see your vaccine passport that was her
00:01:26.520 exact words and we just kind of go yeah it was an odd question and she goes oh okay okay have a nice
00:01:33.200 day she sort of steps away and and then she goes somewhere else I thought that's kind of interesting
00:01:38.300 it's kind of odd that wasn't enforcing the vaccine passport and then I overheard her at the other side
00:01:43.680 of the restaurant chatting with a couple of people who were probably regulars about her views on what's
00:01:48.920 going on right now and she was saying she was talking very passionately about how she used to really
00:01:53.920 love her job and that she would see all these kids smile and people would have their have their
00:01:58.220 magic moments there you know someone would be there for for a kid's birthday or whatnot it would be a
00:02:02.320 happy experience and everyone would be saying have a nice day and and she felt very positive about
00:02:06.840 working there but that now for the past year and a half it has not been a positive experience and
00:02:12.340 she was saying it's just getting worse it's dogging her down it's weighing on her now she has to ask
00:02:17.780 people for their medical papers and she just doesn't want to do it doesn't it makes her unhappy
00:02:22.380 she doesn't feel good about it anymore it makes her less happy with her job and it's just interesting
00:02:27.180 to hear that lady do that you know she's clearly tasked with enforcing these rules it is the law
00:02:31.860 she should have been doing it she wasn't doing it and this is a location that you know it's a large
00:02:36.740 operation as I said they would probably like to be seen as being uh in compliance with the rules
00:02:41.620 but long-standing employees who who love their jobs there they don't want to be enforcing these rules
00:02:47.360 not because I didn't hear the lady articulate any sort of extreme anti-vaxxer views or any far this
00:02:53.320 or far that or what have you she was just seemed like a regular decent person who said she's just
00:02:57.540 tired of all of this tired of this this this big scene and enforcing all of these rules and I just
00:03:04.200 thought it was really interesting to hear a lady tell her story and I wonder how many more people how
00:03:08.980 many more small businesses big businesses how many people working at these facilities feel this way
00:03:14.120 I'm guessing quite a lot
