The federal government has missed the deadline to update employees on whether its COVID-19 vaccine mandate will remain in place, leaving thousands of public servants who didn’t take the shots or disclose their vaccination status wondering whether they can return to work.
In a statement to The Epoch Times on April 14, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat said the board is “currently reviewing all elements” of the mandate.
“The Policy on COVID-19 Vaccination for the Core Public Administration, including the RCMP, requires the review of the need for the policy and its contents at a minimum of every six months,” said spokesperson Martin Potvin in the email.
