Are the universities requiring me to get rapid testing done weekly if I am not vaccinated against my constitutional

Hi and thank you for using JustAnswer.  My name is ***** ***** I will be assisting you with your question.

Just a general disclaimer that this conversation is for informational purposes only. I am licensed Canadian lawyer; however, you would need to retain a lawyer to take any legal action and/or preserve any of your legal rights. I may be away from my desk from time to time, but rest assured I will always return back as soon as possible.

I’m currently working on your question.

Good morning  - sorry to hear of your situation. You should write to your school and inquire if any exemptions will be made for vaccinations and/or testing. If there are no exceptions, you could retain a lawyer and challenge this in court claiming an infringement on your bodily autonomy. The school will likely argue that this mandate is necessary to protect all staff and students. Given the novelty of the situation, it is unclear how the courts will rule on mandatory vaccines/testing in the school environment. Here is the number for the Alberta lawyer referral service in case you want to retain a lawyer and sue the school: 1.***-***-****

Does that help answer your question today or did you have any follow up questions?

If it’s a violation of your religious beliefs, perhaps. The best bet is to argue this at court.

Did you have any further questions about this issue?

You would commence a legal claim against the school that is filed with the courts.
