Ontario’s top court has overturned a decision made by a superior court last year that ruled in favour of a mother who didn’t want her two children to receive the COVID-19 vaccines due to concerns over potential side effects.
The mother was contesting a motion brought forward by her ex-husband on Jan. 25, 2022, that asked for a court order that both children—aged 10 and 12 at the time—get injected with the vaccines followed by “all recommended” booster shots. The children had said they did not want to be vaccinated.
