So every fired employee only had to get a free Health Canada approved vaccine which significantly reduces their probability of getting infected and therefore infecting Westjet passengers, as well as dramatically reducing their chance of requiring hospitalization, or dying and they wouldn’t be fired ?

Sorry no sympathy here, with choices comes consequences…..

If only they had like…. a ghost of Christmas Yet To Come… or something… to tell them what was going to happen.

I imagine for more than a few, this is their bluff being called and only pride, ignorance, and false hope is keeping them going.

And like the death of Ebenezer Scrooge… nobody will care. It will even bring some people joy as opportunities open up in an industry that has no shortage of applicants.

After a fortnight, nobody will remember at all. Nothing will change, except their decisions if they want to find work in this industry again.

First of all, there is no choice here.

So you mean to say its ok to get infected from someone fully vaxed, but its not ok to get infected from someone unvaxed? What's the difference? Your getting it anyway. The "chances of getting it less" argument is bullshit. Your getting it regardless. So it makes absolutely no sense to fire anyone.

No wonder politicians laugh at citizens. Really sad

Hope they get their jobs back (with back pay). It's terrible how many have become almost rabid against those who chose not to take the vaccine. The narrative on the vaccines is falling apart. If they worked so great, why are we at the same rates of the covid this year when no one was vaccinated at this time last year? 2/3 of the cases in today were in fully immunized people. That doesn't sound like great immunity to me.

You missed the part about FREE choices and consequences.

If you don't see the difference between FREE choices and choices you are in dangerous territory.

Soon, there is going to be a pandemic of the “vaccinated” (if it hasn’t started already). Many of those of the smug pro-pricks are already noticing strange marks, difficulty breathing, dizziness, vertigo, strange aches and pains they never had before, foggy brain, forgetfulness, etc.

Others will notice friends and family dying at an unprecedented rate.

So yes, there may be many jobs opening for those with pure blood, but there may only one cargo to carry.....the dead and dying.

You're a complete and utter idiot.

With the vast majority of people becoming eligible for booster doses in the next month or two, that means roughly 90% + of the population have been vaccinated for 6-8+ months. Being that adverse reactions, of any severity, develop within 15 minutes to a few days (or up to 30 days for AZ in the case of clots)... a "reaction" at this point has absolutely @#$! all to do with the COVID vaccine.

Of course, you know that already; but prefer to keep harping on the same BS pseudoscience like a standard troll and there's absolutely no point in attempting to reason with or have a learned discussion with an idiot. So, I digress.

You realise there's no hope of you ever getting an aviation job again after posting all this batshit crazy crap under your real name? But, good news: McDonalds and Walmart don't require their employees to be vaccinated. Or you could also work in a Westjet call centre. We don't have a shortage of pilots, but there is a shortage of KFC employees and Westjet call centre employees. You would be doing me a personal favour by taking either job, and I'm sure many other people would thank you as well.

Yes
but its far more likely to get infected from someone unvaxed?
What's the difference?


Substantial.
Your getting it anyway.
Less likely from someone else who is vaccinated who has a milder infection for a shorter time.

The "chances of getting it less" argument is bullshit.
No.. it’s not.
Your getting it regardless.
No.. you’re not. Again, severity and length of infection. Also.. vaccinated are far less likely to contract it in the first place.

So it makes absolutely no sense to fire anyone.
You’re right. Too bad the employees made poor choices.
No wonder politicians laugh at citizens. Really sad
Nobody is laughing except at the pseudoscientific garbage that’s constantly spewed here.. but only sardonically.

The company should have had the decency to have a pop up vaccine clinic on site at the time. Perhaps a few would have gotten the jab. They should wear masks when that close together though.

Yep. Masks will save everyone. Especially when you’re outdoors. Are you one of those ‘tards that drive with one on in your car alone? :roll:

Sorry, I didn't realize that being outdoors eliminates any covid risk when breathing in each others faces, a few inches from each other.

Explain to me, then, how perfectly healthy 20yo football players are falling down with heart attacks. Do you have exclusive knowledge of these and other events?

I promise you the powers that be are already simulating the upcoming pandemic of the vaccinated.

Really sorry to hear about these westjet employees. Completely unfair how this was dealt with and you all definitely deserved to keep your jobs. Reasonable restrictions may have been implementing mandatory testing for the non vaccinated on a weekly basis. I really think it’s a small vocal minority who actually believe this is good policy. The majority want the vaccines but don’t really care what personal choices you make.

I am hopeful we come out on the other side of this with a resolution for you all.

lol you can watch the videos of the soccer players in Europe dropping on the field with heart issues. That is not a conspiracy. Some have had to retire because of it. Super sad.

No mention of the vaccine there, but it says he has had it since childhood and he collapsed 4 years ago.

People have had heart problems long before covid. Only idiots like you are linking it to the vaccine.

Right. So there has been a huge increase of heart conditions but it has to do with every other reason than the vaccine. Vaccines are amazing but should only be given to 60+ and people with compromised immune systems.
