Informed consent requires a formal opting in, never a formal opting out. Opting in must always be voluntary, and without any government interference, coercion, cost, or penalty. No one, including the government, has the right to insist that another person, or another person’s child, be injected with anything.
The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and many international agreements and codes of ethics to which Canada is a signer, including the Nuremberg Code, the Helsinki Declaration, and the 2005 Declaration on Bioethics and Human Rights support the position that we in Canada do indeed have the well-established right to informed consent.
Vaccine mandates ignore our right to informed consent, security of the person, self-autonomy and bodily integrity, which includes the fundamental human right to decide what one allows, or doesn’t allow, into oneself and one’s children. The right to informed consent is arguably the most meaningful right we have, and vaccine mandates flagrantly violate these rights.
Vaccinations are not benign. Vaccination is an invasive medical procedure that delivers complex biochemical drugs and known toxins by injection (as documented in product monographs). Without the right to refuse vaccinations, one cannot protect oneself and one’s children from the known, and yet to be known, harm from vaccinations, including death.
Vaccine mandates result in the government restricting and prohibiting law-abiding citizens and their children from participating in society due to their refusal to submit to one, some, or scores of invasive, risk-laden, potentially-fatal, improperly-tested, unethically-approved medical procedures, for which no one who makes or administers them is held legally, financially, or criminally liable in Canada.
Each and every vaccine has the potential to injure, make chronically ill, permanently disable, and kill. And each and every day vaccines do in fact injure and kill, as witnessed by the over $4 Billion paid out by the US vaccine injury compensation program; that sum being paid out to a tiny fraction of the mere 1% of injuries and death captured by the vaccine adverse events reporting system VAERS (as documented by the CDC).
A Simple “No Thank You” Is Enough
Exercising this fundamental human right should involve nothing other than a simple “no thank you” when one wants to refuse one, some, or all vaccinations for oneself or for one’s children. Parents and legal guardians are solely responsible for all medical/vaccination decisions for minors, defined as those 0-18 years of age. No exceptions.
