Vaccine waiver for Ontario school pupils – statement of conscience or religious belief
Here is a vaccine affidavit (pdf) (copy) for parents of Ontario students who have concerns about immunization – from a government website.
I haven’t checked what the current status of their policies and legislation is. Regardless, maybe it would be useful, and worth saving.
You can see the authoritarian element even in this. But the concept of someone having a conscience that obeys something higher than the government, that idea of studying the facts yourself and thinking for yourself, and not blindly believing the MYTH of government, the dangerous myth of obedience to “authority”, not blindly trusting their skin-deep propaganda – even just that idea needs to be exposed to others – including “officials”.

Where do we send our Statement of Conscience or Religious Belief Affidavit? Ontario Ministry of Health?
Others might have used this and they could clarify better than I could.
From reading online about how others use these types of forms in the States, you sign it in front of a Commissioner for Oaths / Notary Public (Yellow Pages) who also signs it. Then you take it to the official at your child’s school [correction – public health unit not school] when the subject of immunizations comes up and give it to them. Have one for each child. Originals, not copies.
(example of someone in Texas: http://educate-yourself.org/lte/stevevaccineexemption05dec11.shtml)
Assert your rights and your firmly held convictions anyway regardless of the form and all the legal details.
If you’re going to have a long conversation with the principal or whoever, maybe they will be very interested. Get the list of vaccine products and then you can get official product information sheets from the Internet or a pharmacy (government sites, manufacturer site have these as pdf files, wikipedia can help and my vaccines page: https://canadianliberty.com/?p=4684). The official information sheets list known adverse reactions, contraindications, recommendations, ingredients. Also there are adverse events reporting sites run by governments. Search by product name. There is third party info also in the news about mistakes they’ve made and failures in not being effective and terrible side effects depending on the vaccine. Print it all out, highlight all the concerns you have with whoever’s pushing the vaccine.
If you are in an employment situation, I guess the form is only for schools. Maybe there are other types of forms for different situations, or people should come up with their own forms to assert their rights as human beings – not animals – and review them with some legal advice.
If “authorities” are going to make us uncomfortable, there is a lot of scandalous and awful information about vaccines available. So use it to make them very uncomfortable. Some of the possible side effects of these vaccines are extremely serious. Concerns about toxic ingredients are very legitimate. And the philosophical and religious issues such as fetal cells can also be very serious.
wheres the best place to get print outs of vaccine products and reactions/ingredients? When you say product, is that the actual shot itself “ie: pediacel” or could i just simply look up “Diphtheria” and that would give me the information I need? Thanks
Hi Lindsay,
I think one way or another you need to figure out which product is being handed out in your area for the particular shot–otherwise you’re guessing and you won’t be sure by just picking out a random vaccine for diphtheria. From what I remember, the Government of Ontario had this info for the school vaccines, or maybe you can call the local public health office.
Yes, so just google search the product name “pediacel” if that’s the right one. I did this just now, and near the top of the list is a link to the official document: https://www.vaccineshoppecanada.com/document.cfm?file=Pediacel_E.pdf
If you look further down the Google results, you’ll see the actual manufacturer website, which lists all their products, including pediacel: http://www.sanofipasteur.ca/node/17902 – the same pdf link is right there, so then you’re sure it’s the official product monograph for that product, no doubts.
Another way to access information for products used in Canada is from the Canadian government database:
http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/dhp-mps/prodpharma/databasdon/index-eng.php – click on the link. I entered the name but had to set the status to “marketed” to get a result:
https://pdf.hres.ca/dpd_pm/00015723.PDF (looks like the same document)
More info: https://canadianliberty.com/?p=7467 and https://canadianliberty.com/?p=4684
You submit it to the Public Health Unit in which your child goes to school.. ie: so if you child goes to school in Toronto, you submit the form to Toronto Public Health. Do not give it to the school (the school has nothing to do with collecting the information).
The Statement of Conscience or Religious Belief Affidavit only governs the Immunization of Student Pupils Act, it does not apply to any other legislation. Therefore if say your employment or such requires you to be immunized, this form won’t be able to cover you. Hope this helps.
Sarah, thanks for that clarification
Someone also asked about affidavits and who can sign to witness your oath. Some information in the comments at the bottom of another post: https://canadianliberty.com/?p=4684
Thank you very much. This information was very helpful.
