US EditionB.C. court dismisses lawsuit from doctor fired for not taking COVID vaccine
- B.C.'s Supreme Court dismissed Dr. Theresa Szezepaniak's petition against her termination for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine, stating the Canadian Charter does not apply to health authority decisions on employee vaccinations.
- Justice Steven Wilson found that the provincial government allowed health authorities to decide on vaccination enforcement, including employee termination.
- Szezepaniak, terminated for not complying with the vaccine mandate, experienced unemployment and argued that her termination caused financial and psychological harm.
- Wilson noted that the Charter does not guarantee the right to work specific jobs without vaccination, reinforcing the hospital's authority to uphold health bylaws.
