Two legal questions for the legal professionals listed at the end of this thread (& any others I missed):

As the privacy protections afforded by: FIPPA & MFIPPA only applies to government/public organizations; PHIPA only applies to health information custodians...

1/...
...Question #1: What Ontario legislation specifically protects the privacy our vaccination status (which is PHI) when private businesses/services, employers, etc. ask us to disclose this information?

2/...
Question #2: As the Gov't of Ontario requires ALL employers to screen all employees entering the premises, & whose guidance is having employees answer "Yes" or "No" to a long list of symptoms...
covid-19.ontario.ca/covid19-cms-as…

3/...
...is an employer's screening questionnaire that requires confirmation of each individual symptom (vs. a long list) not a violation of privacy?

4/...
@JCCFCanada @LDBildy @CDNConstFound @rpoconnor @roccogalatilaw @JamesManson6263 @DavidAnber @cvangeyn @jobearon @LitigationGuy @ryan_p_alford - I would appreciate any feedback or thoughts you might have on these 2 questions.

Thank you in advance!

Q #1: Does my employer have the right to ask for the result my COVID-19 test?

A: "Except where required or permitted by law, an employer cannot seek and a doctor cannot give out any patient medical information without..."

1/...
"...the patient’s freely given informed specific authorization and consent"

lawnow.org/privacy-and-me…

2/...
However, IF you are applying for leave under ESA 50.1(1.1)or(1.2):
"An employer may require an employee who takes leave...to provide evidence reasonable in the circumstances..." 50.1(4)&(4.1)

If your employer has been "screening" you by asking you to answer INDIVIDUAL questions for each symptom - YOUR RIGHTS HAVE BEEN VIOLATED!

It should be "Yes" or "No" for the entire list - as seen here: covid-19.ontario.ca/covid19-cms-as…

1/...
Even in healthcare settings, only your Occupational Health Dept. can collect specific health info - and must keep it confidential.

Your employer should ONLY know whether you "passed" or "failed" the screening.

They do NOT have the right to know why!!!

Oh great benevolent leader, the Mighty Ford.

We thank you for bestowing upon us some succulent morsels of false hope & blind fantasies of freedom.

While neighboring kingdoms have all enjoyed more generous outflowings of privilege to the fullest degree...

1/...
...Tho hast stood strong against the tempest that carries upon its back the heralding of the sorcerers who beckon us to partake in full privilege & hope through proclamations of their wisdom & knowledge.

And though we are forelorn in our dreary existence...

2/...
Though your shackles & bonds hold us down...

We will wait yet another fortnight still - with the knowledge that your endless power will remain in perpetuity.

Our muzzles shall remain, our schoolhouse shuttered & our mingling a forbidden fruit.

Open Letter to any @OntarioPCParty MPPs who still values small "c" conservative principles.

In early 2020, we admittedly did not know as much about SARS-CoV-2 as we do now.

Overzealous precautions in the initial period were excusable - in the short-term.

1/...
We quickly learned that COVID-19, unlike Influenza, spared children.

Children & youth have EXTREMELY low to no relative risk...again, unlike Influenza.

We quickly debunked the theory that children were "super-spreaders".

2/...
We also quickly realized that #lockdowns, school closures, social isolation, & #maskmandates have an EXTREMELY negative affect on children & youth with respect to their mental health, physical health, social development, delayed/impaired social milestones, education, etc.

Open Letter to @erinotoole & @CPC_HQ
Your base is cracking.

Foundations in buildings are often taken for granted - as if once they are in place, they never need our attention or energy ever again.

And for a time, that may very well be true.

Over time however...

1/...
...both internal & external forces start to slowly attack & weaken the cohesiveness of the individual particles that once bonded together for one purpose.

Your base was bonded together by small "c" conservative principles that valued the rule of law,...

2/...
...fiscal conservatism, strong military, strong foreign policy, AND a belief that any infringement on our fundamental freedoms should be questioned & challenged by a strong opposition!

Capt. Dong & the HMCS Oiratno

DONG: All aboard! This is the finest ship in the Blue Fleet.

MYRTLE: Oh Harold. I'm so glad that we are booked on the 3rd deck.

HAROLD: Yes Honey. We will be so much closer to the 1st deck, that it was worth all the hassle.

1/...
DONG: Papers please.

HAROLD: Here they are Captain.

DONG: OK. Everything looks good. Proceed to the 4th deck. Forward cabins only.

MYRTLE: But Captain. We are booked on the 3rd deck.

2/...
DONG: Yes, yes...but everyone must start together on the 4th deck...at least until we get out to sea.

HAROLD: And how long will that take?!?

DONG: Oh...that would depend.

MYRTLE: Depend on what?!?
