The Canadian Chamber of Commerce says vaccine passports or digital vaccination certificates would help to prevent future waves of the pandemic from forcing a resurgence of financially disastrous lockdowns by enabling those with low risk to participate in events, move freely and go about their daily lives.
Premier Francois Legault said the province appears to be entering a fourth wave of rising infections and that he doesn't plan to return to lockdowns. He said digital certificates would also be critical for international travel to provide proof of status for other countries that want to ensure visitors meet their vaccination requirements. Paper documents could easily be forged so machine-readable documents are needed that meet globally accepted standard, Beatty noted.
Digital certification would also help to assure employees and customers that it's safe to return to work or visit places of business said Beatty, with rapid testing as a supplement. "It's a clear signal from the private sector that they see the vaccine passport as a tool that should be used. And of course, in their view, it's because you do not want to have to close down the economy again," said board president Michel Leblanc.
The vax card I have is for getting into a very few specific countries w/ specific disease problems. I never had to show it to get a meal, see a movie, hold a job, fly, or be accepted into society. This is database-driven medical segregation & bigotry, not a simple vax card
Hahahahahahah k
Without Uniformity there is disorder and confusion.
And what is it called when government and business collaborate together to the detriment of individual rights? Fascism.
bullshit
🐑🐑🐑🐑
canadian *corporate machine* largely supportive of vaccine passport system.
So the majority of the Province is for it AND the majority of businesses are for it. I wonder why the Premier won’t do it …it’s almost like he knows his base is…well you know.
Yup, getting closer to reality!
It’s called an immunization record
😡🤬
The ones who get HUGE SUBSIDIES I bet! Also the company that gets the order and the politicians with PROXY shareholding in the 'biz'? RealRichardBail
As a business owner I do NOT support. I'm sure you can find 9 of 10 other business owners do not support either. This news is made up.
Imagine there are humans who actually believe things that CTV reports.
It’s us against the virus...are you in or are you out. Our economy opened because vaccines work. Passports would help businesses stay open and reduce the virus spreading.
I can’t wait to whip out my Johnson vaccine
Do you agree with this?
Where? i see 90% saying NO right here:
Fear mongering Mockingbird media. Msm will be shutting down soon. All lies will be revealed
Yep
Why does CTV keep reposting the same fake articles LMAO I speak with hundreds of business owners and no one wants this!
I dont know even ONE biz owner that wants the passport. NO BUSINESS wants to play 'jab police' w/ their customers They want to serve ALL CUSTOMERS and MAKE $ that GOVT has deprived them of over the last 18 months TorStar poll 87% said NO PASSPORTS
Very few businesses will alienate customers
Lies
No problem. Our money can go to Amazon and Walmart. We support our local growers who aren’t foolish enough to want vaccine passports. And we have very little need or desire for restaurants. We’re good 👍
Business community should check their status, if they r not spreading delta as CDC said. 😍 before supporting s*cam Vaxx for others.
You mean Canadian business community buckling under government overreach and would do anything to survive.
Nazi collaborators
Do they support a guaranteed livable income or just things that effect them personally?
Idiots
Any company who supports this deserves to go out of business. If I find out of any company doing this, you won’t get a fvking cent from me… EVER! Go bankrupt! And yes… I’m vaccinated.
Scrolled through the likes on this post , bot fest.
So are we. Fire it up!
This is punitive and coercive. Why can't we just allow the unvaccinated to naturally develop immunity or expire? Immunocomprimised people have always had to deal with the risk of catching a bug when they go out in public. How is Covid different?
yeah right only for CTV news. Slave of the government that gives you money. Where are real journalists?
Maybe KitchenStuffPlus Walmart and others should start to ENFORCE MASKS! And not support BS MedicalExcuses with NOPROOF
Propaganda
FYI jkenney and Alberta_UCP
I'm sorry, but do these folks have real data to confirm these claims. Not studies, but data. Or do we just bow down like the government to these 'because we say so ' corporations. Everyone deserves and choice not a demand. Glorious and Free. God Bless
The new reality. Those who have this selfish attitude and think the universe revolves around them and refuse to get vaccinated will be discriminated in the right way. We all are in this together.
What if you don't own a device or technology illiterate?
Mor propaganda from Turdeau’s paid media….
Seems to be a lot of misinformation out there. The passports in France and Quebec only apply to non essential businesses such as restaurants, pubs, movie theatre and so on. Essential businesses such as groceries & pharmacy would not require passports.
No they don’t
BS !!
Most people support vaccine passports because they understand that when the COVID19 cases climb and a province goes into shutdown then it will be people with a vaccine passport who will still get to enjoy normalcy.
Vaccines are useless and will likely do more harm than good.
Of course they are. 80% of customers vaxxed. Who wants to mingle with biohazards
Oh ya, I'm sure movie theatres (industry hanging by a thread) and restaurants that have lost massive revenue are looking to cut their customer base by over 20%. Do it. I dare you.
You mean the fkn skidmarks who arent vaccinated won't be at the same venues as me? Sounds great. Sign me up. I'll only frequent stores that accept passport systems.
Doug listens to business so he may chance his tiny mind.
And that speaks well of the Canadian business community. The groundswell of support for a vaccine passport will motivate provincial leaders and the federal government to adopt one sooner rather than later.
Yes the Vaccinated Super Spreaders Approved !!
why are we at war over vaccines? 6 reasons why you shouldn't worry about COVID-19 vaccines and how to go back to life the way it was
This isn’t a surprise. The business leaders association has already been pressuring Ford, here in Ontario, for sometime. Would you rather be forced to close, again, for months on end with no revenue at all. Or be able to stay open and have over 80% of the population come in?
Another example of the corrupt media controlling the narrative ! You can always find people to support some narrative that you want to push! Corrupt media CTV
Sad that Canadians distrust, for good reason, anything that comes out of the (Liberal) state funded media. The last 6 years have been near deadly for this country. The media has lost any integrity that it ever had. There are some great journalists, but not many.

Not sute why everyone is so keen on having a segregated society. Completely unjust!
