TORONTO (LifeSiteNews) – Last week Western University in London, Ontario, announced it will require all staff and students to receive COVID boosters in order to work or study on campus.
The announcement coming out of Western has sparked significant backlash, with the school experiencing sizable protests over the weekend.
Hundreds of demonstrators marched around the campus over the weekend, as speakers denounced the policy that was implemented just after fall tuition was due, making Western University the only school in Canada where boosters are mandated for all staff and students.
One of the speakers was Dr. Julie Ponesse, who was fired last year for refusing to take an experimental COVID jab and speaking out against medical-coercion.
