As Ontario universities press ahead, no plans for Quebec universities to make vaccines mandatory - CBC, August 13, 2021
Dr. Ananya Tina Banerjee, Assistant Professor at the Department of Epidemiology, Biostatistics and Occupational Health is quoted by CBC.
"Earlier this week, the University of Ottawa announced it would make COVID-19 vaccinations compulsory for on-campus activities, and several other universities across Ontario followed suit.
In Quebec, however, universities have maintained that they will not require people to be fully vaccinated, even as they face growing pressure from students and staff to do so. A petition launched at McGill University calls for the institution to make being vaccinated a requirement for all students, faculty, staff and visitors to campus."
