I try not to let fringe arguments get in the way of facts. The question of whether or not vaccine mandates lead to a safer workplace is a no brainer. That the pandemic has become driven by unvaccinated people is evident in the fact that the vast majority of hopsitalizations are among unvaccinated people. The question with EI eligibility hinges on whether or not refusing to comply with workplace health & safety regs is tantamount to quitting. While there may be some issue if people have a legitimate medical reason not to vaccinate, fear of a serious adverse reaction is not among those reasons as the chances of that occurring are so remote. For most of the vaccine resistant it has become a political battle, "me" is more important than "we", and that's not an easy fight to win.
That is the problem of the vaxxers. All about them, not rights or personal safety. Also around 30 % of those hospitalized have had 2 shots, so the vaccine doesn't seem to be more than a cash cow for Big Pharma.
The wrong people are being sent home.

So 70% of those hospitalized are not fully vaxxed. What does that tell you ?

Then how do you account for the fact that most by far of those ending up in hospital are unvaccinated ?
They aren’t . They are the old and obese , just like before the not vaccines became available . And how can you account for the fact that deaths and hospitalizations are consistent with pre jab numbers ?
