Social media posts claim a Canadian lawyer won a case against âforced immunizationâ and the result now has the force of federal law. This is false; vaccination is not mandatory at the federal level in Canada, provinces that require proof of immunization for school attendance allow exemptions, and two vaccine-related cases in which the attorney is involved remain unresolved.
âRocco Galati won the cause against forced immunization in Canada. It is now a federal law,â claims an April 7, 2021 Instagram post.
