So ridiculous.
It’s been a long while since I worked in the US but I don’t recall them wading into the pool on vaccines before, so why would they now? I mean if you don’t get involved in say….vaccinations for measles - which is associated with a pretty scary mortality rate (15+%), why would you for something like covid?
Can’t speak for policy makers everywhere but here labour enforcement has taken a pretty strong stand on not getting involved in anything vaccine from a workplace hazard perspective. There was a lot of concern when the province started to create policy on vaccine policy in certain sectors. So it’s interesting on a bunch of levels to be honest.
However Ford was quoted to say MOL would be enforcing vaccine passports in Ontario. Which is rather confusing to me since the passports don’t apply to workers at all…..and the MOL only has jurisdiction over workers. Lol.
Yeah brother...I am dumbfounded each and every day i see something new coming out. It almost feels like they are running a playlist from 1800s when we did not have internet and couldn't see what was going on in other provinces and countries etc. The many government workers and service groups getting involved to enforce this is crazy. Here in BC wsbc will be regulating businesses on passports.
My brother does fly in fly out Mining. Everyone has to be vaccinated by the 27 or no job. Currently they all have to be vaccinated to fly anyway. 90% (Local indigenous folk also work here) vaccinated after the announcement was made within a couple weeks, prior to i believe it was low 60%. So after being forced, boom will be 100% shortly.
We also have several popular groups on Facebook saying they wont support the mandate and wont ask for passports. One group Around 150-200,000 members and many , many businesses Outright saying they wont be asking for passports in the open on there.
It is a group against businesses forcing people to show passports starting on Sept 13, tomorrow.
These poor folks advertising are going to get nailed hard and the worst thing is it was a public group until recently.
There are thousands Of businesses saying no to passports. It is pages after pages and it is indexed for different cities and towns now....lol...
So Worksafe BC and other regulatory enforcement & government groups will just open up FB and look in their region while drinking their Starbucks. Pick a small list to get their fines for the day and easy peasy Drive over, go inside and sit and watch and document. Then boom fines or WSBC Orders. Each order doubles until you get shutdown whenever they feel it is time.
I mentioned, in The group that "hey, do you think the enforcement agencies are loving this page as everyone is watching this group and all the businesses are advertising they wont be seeking passports for entry into their establishments"?"
Several said "Don't pay the fines, run ,your business without a license", etc.
I then realized that there is not much horsepower among the folks that have an issue with having to show a Vaccine paper for this shit. No one has a plan for when the fines start, and they WILL...I said you guys should get together and get a go fund me deal going for BC businesses that will help with court costs, be prepared.
I was sent a link as a reply to show me instructions on how to start a charity.
I replied," Hey. folks. I'm not entering any establishments at all, period. I am not going to be that guy if i am out, i am out and i am already getting used to it, I appreciate it and all, but you folks will be getting the fines and then turning away folks with no vaccine passports once the shit starts".
I Received lots of likes but not one person took the reins and said, hey....We need a plan.
Right now it is all hugs, and i love you, and Please support these businesses and hearts flying everywhere. GOD!!!
I am off Facebook for awhile, but ill go back in a few weeks after it starts and ill guarantee the shit will be flying and many businesses will be following mandates.
99%pussies.I will guarantee it.... I'm not trying to sound tuff, i mean if you make a big statement like that, then you need to not lose face and have a strong plan and good support system and see it to the end. Or you are just a pussy, period.
If you say nothing and do what you need to do and comply, i fully 100 % respect that,
well i 98.5% respect that....
I don't respect the shit talk and hero worship and love in the air shit, then turtle after all your tough talk...No plan is ridiculous
So i am hunting for moose harder and heading to get the last pieces of my home gym this week, ordered some other stuff, and will be probably healthier as i wont be able to go in public eateries.
The gym is the biggest disappointment for me. I went today and i felt like i was leaving a best friend to not be able to communicate at all with for a long while.
It was shitty walking out today, it hit me pretty deep hence this wordy reply BUN.
Maybe i am vaccinated, and still won't show my passport, who knows. Myself and my doctor should know. I just respect rights that much.
That would be BALLSY....
