Update Canada 05-09-22
Another good week in Canada, as we’re starting to see less and less talk and more confidence that this whole mandate thing is going to subside here for a little bit. Anyway, we have been working a little bit more diligently on the x-ray issue with the chiropractic college. So today I’m going to update you on everything that’s going on in Canada. So good morning, Canadian chiropractors and allied health professionals. My name is Bharon Hoag. I am the Executive Director of OneChiropractic and The Chiropractic Defense Council coming to you today, Monday, May 9th, 2022 for your weekly update. So, we’re still monitoring what’s going on around the country, as far as mandates and language about mass and all that kind of stuff. I know everything’s starting to lighten up for the most part where we finally, I think, had some good information from CMCC that they are going to remove their policies there.
We’ve been fighting that battle for a while. It appears that they’re letting that go when they lead into the new semesters in the fall. So that’s well, even summer rather. So that’s some positive news there. Also we’re listening to BC. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of chatter at this point. We don’t expect anything to be coming back out of that. However, there is some language about expecting in the fall a new wave, you know, there’s already some articles coming out about a new variant. And so I need you to understand, we need to buckle down and just be ready, be ready. And so we are communicating with our legal team, making sure we’re positioned, making sure that we’re ready if, and when they come back at this in the fall. But I do think you can take a deep breath here for a little while and enjoy your summer.
Enjoy being back to, you know, not worrying about this in practice and just trust that our team is constantly monitoring everything that’s going on specifically in BC, but also around the rest of the country. But I do want to share in British Columbia that we are working with our legal team on the x-ray issue. We have a plan that we’re going to be executing there to go after that. That’s been a long time coming. So that’s now on our radars now that the mandates are kind of fading to the horizon a little bit, as we get closer to that, we’ll be sharing that information. We’re also monitoring some potential legislation and things of employers that are still, holding on to the last idea that vaccines are necessary. So we want you to keep communicating with us as necessary.
Anything that you guys are seeing that’s popping up. We want to make sure that we’re on top of it. Our legal team, they’re teched up, they’re prepared. And we’ll be willing to take on anything that pops up. So we love you. Have an amazing week this week. Remember what I shared with you last week. I want you to “drop in”. I want you to stay present in your clinics. I want you to remember that we are on the right side of this issue. And the most important weapon we have is our ability to love and serve our community out of a sense of abundance. We’re not doing it out of fear. We’re not doing it out of obligation. We’re doing it from a sense of abundance and we’re taking back our lives. So I want you to focus on that this week. Remember that you have a support system behind you, you are not alone, and we’re going to continue to make sure your rights are protected. So we love you. We appreciate you having an incredible week. We’ll be back to you next week. God bless you.
