Ottawa’s Vaccine Civil Disobedience Forcing Schools to Threaten Mass Suspension of Students
Canada’s capital city is the latest community putting the screws to parents and their children over vaccine compliance. Like California, Ottawa is enforcing Ontario’s Immunizations of School Pupils Act (ISPA) which requires “pupils” to show proof of vaccination against tetanus, diphtheria, polio, mumps, measles, rubella, meningococcal disease, pertussis (whooping cough) and varicella (required by children born in 2010 or later.) CBC news recently reported that Ottawa Public Health has already suspended 900 Catholic School students over immunization records. Even with their best efforts and the backing of over $55 million in 2015, Ottawa Public Health officials may have to face the fact that they are experiencing widespread vaccine civil disobedience.
