Three unvaccinated University of Winnipeg Collegiate instructors forced to take unpaid leave are suing the province and several parties over an “overboard, unreasonable, and discriminatory” vaccine mandate.
The instructors allege that due to their vaccine status they’ve had to withstand “ridicule, hatred, maltreatment and discrimination,” in a statement of claim reported by CBC and Winnipeg Free Press Friday.
“All of the plaintiffs have suffered vilification and extreme ill-will being directed at them as ‘unvaccinated’ people as a result of the University of Winnipeg and other government of Manitoba representatives making false public statements and promulgating policies which have the effect of stating the unvaccinated are to blame for the pandemic,” says the lawsuit.
The university, province, Manitoba’s chief public health officer, Manitoba Health, and the Ministry of Advanced Education, Skills and Immigration are included as defendants named in the lawsuit filed Monday in Manitoba Court of Queen’s Bench.
The plaintiffs, placed on unpaid leave last September 7, are Renise Mlodzinski, who holds degrees in education and music performance; Evan Maltman, who holds degrees in kinesiology-physical education and education; and Kyle Du Val, who holds degrees in science-physics, music performance, and education.
The instructors allege being placed on unpaid leave caused their vaccination status to be “immediately apparent.”
They point to the Charter of Rights and Freedoms that protects Canadians from being compelled to disclose private medical information, including vaccine status.
As well, they note, the Criminal Code of Canada deems it an offence to make statements that willfully and promote hatred an against an identifiable group.
They allege the province’s vaccine policy amounts to “an expressed intention to engage in a conspiracy to commit assault” because it attempts to force employees to be vaccinated.
The lawsuit calls for the vaccine policy to be stayed until the court reviews the matter.
The provincial government has implemented policies that cast blame on the unvaccinated for hospital overcrowding, the spread of COVID-19, and restricts their rights to access society treating them as “sub-humans,” says the lawsuit.
It challenges the university’s policy claim that vaccination is the single most effective health measure “essential to the university’s institutional response” to reduce the spread of COBID-19 and claim scientific evidence doesn’t support that.
“The rhetoric has resulted in a large portion of Manitobans believing that if they are fully vaccinated, they are safe from the virus and cannot be infected or infect others. Omicron has exploded this mythology,” says the lawsuit.
Scientific studies show no significant difference in the viral load between vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals who tested positive for COVID-19,” says the lawsuit, pointing to breakthrough cases of COVID-19 in vaccinated people.
The province and chief medical officer Dr. Brent Roussinhave promoted a “false sense of security” that the vaccinated are protected, it alleges.
“There is neither a moral obligation to vaccinate, nor a sound ethical basis to mandate vaccination under any circumstances, even for hypothetical vaccines that are medically risk free.
“Under the present circumstances, when the science clearly demonstrates that the so-called vaccines do not provide either complete sterilizing immunity nor prevent the ‘fully vaccinated’ from infecting others, the grossly unethical nature of vaccine mandates” becomes even more clear.”
The vaccines, with ingredients not revealed to the public, haven’t undergone the standard approval process that takes years “to properly assess the benefits and risks from clinical data, including any potential long-term side effects,” it says.
“The vaccination program in Canada is being adjusted on the fly as adverse effects manifest necessitating the need for constant amendments of safety guidelines. This underlines the experimental nature of these vaccines.”
They point to Ontario data showing one in 5,000 suffered myocarditis from the Moderna vaccine, and one in 28,000 patients from the Pfizer vaccine.
Recommendations that people age of 18-24 receive the Pfizer vaccine as opposed to Moderna because of an increase in myocarditis and death in that age group have been made by Ontario, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, and Sweden
“The government of Manitoba has not followed this safety protocol, nor has it provided an explanation for ignoring these concerns to Manitobans,” says the lawsuit.
The university rejected vaccine exceptions on religious grounds applied for by all three instructors.
They’re seeking $1 million in damages for violating their Charter rights and up to $1 million in damages for the “intentional infliction of mental distress, and assault and battery” they allege resulted in threats and assaults, loss of income, post-traumatic stress disorder and lost employment opportunities.

I suggest everyone use the new RCMP hate speech informant line to report trudeau’s hate speak and extremism.
The RCMP are asking Canadians to report all hate speech on all media platforms.
I already emailed the RCMP about this.

“Do we tolerate these people?” This is darkness bordering on hate speech. In our Canadian context, it is the sentiment which led to the residential schools and the internments during both world wars. Beyond Canada, well, the extremes are obvious. The rest of his comments are equally troubling for their uninformed nature, narrowness, and inaccuracy. And in all of that, he managed to play to the crowd. I hope the rest of the country sees through this.

À mes concitoyens canadiens du Québec, s’il vous plaît, réveillez-vous!
To my fellow Canadians elsewhere, please wake up!
We are definitely becoming a fascist state, which is a marriage between govt. and those private institutions that bed with it.
Maxine has it absolutely right, Trudeau is a fascist psychopath. In my nearly 70 years as a happy and proud Canadian I’ve never heard such hateful and divisive language from any politician, let alone a Prime Minister. Let’s face it, this idiot got elected because of his name, youthful looks, promise to legalize pot, and numerous lies to indigenous and other immigrant groups.
Canadians are known worldwide as ‘nice’ people. Look up the Latin origins of the word nice, they are nescius ‘ignorant’, from nescire ‘unaware’. Need I say more?
One of our greatest shortcomings is many peoples ignorance of history, as it is certainly repeating itself. There is no shortage of documentaries outlining what took place in Nazi Germany in the 1930’s, how the Nazi’s came to power, how the German population was deceived and bought into their charismatic leader’s rants. The parallels are so obvious if you just look, and we all know where Hitler and Stalin took their own people, no less the Jews.
Look at Argentina’s fall in the last 100 years, from global leading economy and society to impoverished suffering. It is happening today in Canada and the USA.
Socialism, fascism, communism, they don’t work, the leaders abuse and profit, the people lose and suffer in serfdom.
Wake up Canada, wake the f— up! You only have one choice on the people’s side supporting our Charter of Rights and Freedoms, and that’s Maxine’s People’s Party of Canada! Wake up Alberta, wake the f— up! You only have one choice supporting Alberta over the Laurentian elites and prepared to stand against fascist Justin Waterhole, and that’s Hinman’s Wildrose Party of Alberta!
ps: as a fascist leader JT should meet the same demise as Mussolini!
pps: to my fellow Canadians, if you voted for JT Castro the first time, you were fooled. If you voted for him the second time, you were an idiot. If you voted for him the third time you must have been bought, drunk, or on bad drugs. If you vote for him again, you obviously hate what Canada has always stood for!

Reflecting on these covid mandates, I’ve come to believe that the unvaxxed are the truly free.

Wonder if the thread of the management of the Port of Vancouver contracted by Ottawa to China and the workers there predominantly CCP army is really true? Google won’t let us follow that thread.
But after all I’ve seen from the POS Prince of Pronouns it seems to validate the possibility. Organize quietly family, clans, communities, and patriotic Canucks to create the parallel systems we need to push back this psychotic fascist and his handlers!!

Racist has become a meaningless catch-all word for denigrating people,like Nazi and fascist. With humorous intent an Ojibwa friend says I’m racist against fat people! More seriously, Trudeau’s fellow travellers in wokesters in the Senate, led by Murray Sinclair, used it to exile Lynn Beyak. All she said was that the residential schools were not all bad even as some were terrible. There’s a long list of success stories, including 3 federal cabinet ministers, Thomson Highway, architect Douglas Cardinal and many others. See the recent article on the graves scam by Brian Giuesbrecht, at the website for Frontier Centre for Public Policy.

I am vaxxed from the past career, did 2 deployments, had more shot’s than the average Canadian, but now, because I refuse to get the experimental approved shot, I am now the enemy. This isn’t the country I pledged my allegiance too any longer. These people(politician’s, doctors, administrators, health care workers that have pushed this poison) need to be tried by the people, not the elites, judges included, of crimes against humanity. We the people are done with the utter bullshit happening day to day. I am not complying with mask mandates or any mandates for that matter, as the restrictions in Alberta ended on 15 Dec. The people of Medicine Hat are so conditioned they walk around like fucking lemmings. Wake the fuck up People!!!!!!!! My comments are usually censored.

Letter from Bernier
One thing has become clearer than ever in 2021: Without the PPC, there would be no real opposition to Justin Trudeau in Ottawa and to the madness that is taken over our country.
There would be no opposition to covid authoritarianism.
There would be no opposition to the cancel culture and attacks on freedom of speech.
There would be no opposition to woke insanity and political correctness.
There would be no opposition to federal intrusions in provincial jurisdictions.
There would be no opposition to massive spending, unsustainable debt, and rising inflation.
There would be no opposition to globalism and UN attacks on our sovereignty.
There would be no opposition to the radical trans lobby and brainwashing our kids to mutilate themselves.
There would be no opposition to mass immigration.
There would be no opposition to the carbon tax and climate change hysteria.
THERE WOULD BE NO OPPOSITION, PERIOD!

This Rebel news video is further evidence of what is happening in this country.
What’s the next step, only government approved insurance? Who’s to say your eastern bank couldn’t look into your political leanings and decide to call in your mortgage? Think about that.
Anyone who thinks this can’t happen in Canada had best step back and look at what has happened in the past 2 years. If you think this will end, guess again. The more you bend over for these tyrants, the closer you get to total government control.

Quebec with 23.5% of Canada’s population has 39% of its Covid deaths…..Alberta is 11.5% and less than 11% respectively. Maybe the failed “pandemic response” is with Quebec politicians and bureaucracies and not with the apochryphal bigots that Trudeau believes are hiding behind every blade of grass in Alberta.

No, more of my rant goes to the uninformed who prefer to wear blinders to what is happening in this country and the lack of guts to take a stand against this dictatorship!
Understand this TRUDEAU is not a leader or builder, he is a destroyer, a divider and this fucker is winning! Albertans that feel this prick or his minions are the future, need to leave, move east where you belong, you are not welcome! I never ever thought I would live to see the day that Albertans would be willing to bend over and get stabbed in the ass by our so called govt in ottawa, I’m so disappointed and disgusted.

Just as an aside: who are all the desperate numbchucks sitting in the audience with eyes agog? 🤦♀️ Must be more of his bribery $$$$ at work
