Challengers to the COVID-19 vaccine mandate for travel are pleading for their case to be heard in court after the Attorney-General submitted a motion to dismiss their applications on the grounds of mootness, since the mandate was suspended on June 20.

Attorney Keith Wilson, affiliated with the Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (JCCF) and representing former Newfoundland premier Brian Peckford and co-applicants, filed his response to the AG’s June 28 motion on August 5.
