BC Vaccine Passport legal challenge result…

September 13, 2022



On September 12, Chief Justice Hinkson of the BC Supreme Court issued his decision in the Canadian Constitution Foundation’s legal challenge to the BC government’s vaccine passport regime. The court dismissed the case as premature, finding that the three individuals who brought the case around medical exemptions had not exhausted their opportunity to apply to the PHO for a medical exemption. As a result of that finding, Justice Hinkson did not resolve the three petitioners’ arguments regarding Charter breaches.
