Ontario MPP Rick Nicholls booted from PC caucus after refusing to take COVID-19 vaccine
MPP Christina Mitas will remain in caucus as she provided a statement of medical exemption

An Ontario legislator who was warned to get vaccinated against COVID-19 or face removal from the Progressive Conservative caucus says he doesn't intend to take the shot.

Rick Nicholls, who represents Chatham-Kent-Leamington, says he made a "personal choice" not to get immunized and won't be "coerced" into taking the vaccine.

Nicholls was one of two Tory legislators facing a Thursday evening deadline to show proof of vaccination or a medical
exemption.

He says he will wait for word from Premier Doug Ford's office about his status in the Progressive Conservative ranks.

Ford has previously said he wouldn't make the vaccine mandatory because he considers it a constitutional right not to take the shots.

Nicholls says he "took the premier at his word" and raised his concerns about the policy with Ford.

He has lots of tools at his disposal.
Incoming lawsuit.

Labour law will be on his side...so yes, I'm sure there are few lawyers who will be willing to bring it before a judge, clear up to the Supreme court.

Since the virus is no longer a 'public safety emergency' it's going to be hard to substantiate making the vaccine mandatory.

They are all making political suicide at this time. The gig is up!

Here is yet another resource of information on combatting the illegal government mandates.

Good, unions have a legal obligation to represent members and protect their rights. Things are going to get worse before it gets better....

Labour laws don't apply in this situation as an MPP is not employed by his party caucus. Nicholls remains an MPP but must sit as an independent or cross the floor to another party.

He won’t cross the floor.

Ford jumping on the dictatorship train.
What shame, Ford has lost his way. He's no longer, for the people.

Traitor seems fitting imo
