Lilley: It’s part of the reason why Alberta Premier Jason Kenney was able to be so forceful on Monday in rejecting the idea of imposing a vaccine passport in his province. Well, that and most experts believe imposing such a condition would violate several laws and the Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
“We’ve been very clear from the beginning that we will not facilitate or accept vaccine passports,” Kenney said as he spoke to reporters at his Stampede pancake breakfast.
“I believe they would in principle contravene the Health Information Act and also possibly the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act.”
Ontario Premier Doug Ford, though, is saying he isn’t going to bring in such a system, saying it is everyone’s constitutional right to decide on their own medical treatments including vaccines.
