Petition to the Government of Canada
- Section 6 of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms secures the right of Canadians to move freely within Canada as well as in and out of Canada;
- Participation in community, social, and economic life in Canada requires freedom of movement within and between communities, provinces, Canada and other jurisdictions;
- Vaccine passports or certificates are being considered as a means of countering the spread of COVID-19 and its variants;
- Proposed vaccine passports or certificates could make vaccination a requirement to move freely and participate fully in social, communal and economic life;
- Vaccine passports or certificates could introduce discriminatory measures against persons who choose not to be vaccinated, or pressure people into being vaccinated who would otherwise be unwilling to do so;
- Vaccine passports or certificates could impact different sectors of the economy (travel, tourism, hospitality for instance) and the quality of life of many Canadians and residents of Canada;
- It is the sacred duty of the Government of Canada to guard against discrimination and guarantee the freedoms secured to Canadians.
