Earlier this week, Doug Ford's government once again voted against expanding paid sick days to Ontario workers., although each employer can increase the number if they wish to do so.In April 2021, the Ontario Government amended the
to require employers to provide their employees with up to three days of paid infectious disease emergency leave related to COVID - which was in addition to employees' rights to unpaid infectious disease emergency leave.According to Ontario's ESA, an employee who has been employed for at least two consecutive weeks is"entitled to a leave of absence without pay because of a personal illness, injury or medical emergency.
Not all provinces require paid sick days, and for the most part, sick leaves are granted without reimbursement.Alberta: Employers are not required to pay for sick time where an employee did not earn wagesManitoba: 3 days of unpaid sick leave in a yearNova Scotia: No paid sick days, only 3 unpaid sick days each yearNewfoundland and Labrador: No paid sick days, only 7 days unpaid sick leaveElsewhere in the world, some countries offer more paid sick leave when compared to Ontario.
'Not all provinces require paid sick days, and for the most part, sick leaves are granted without reimbursement.' Only those who are 'allowed' can get ill? In the midst of a pandemic that's not ending, this is who continues to get voted for? SickEconomies
Do people have to prove sickness (doctor's note) to use the paid sick days? If not, then they will be used for other purposes. Pointless.

Ontario wasted millions of COVID-19 vaccine doses after overestimating booster demand, auditor report findsOntario's auditor general says the province wasted 38 per cent of COVID-19 vaccine doses between February and June because it overestimated demand and that the province is running a disorganized booking system and doesn't fully track vaccinations. screw vaccine's .....its time to go back to mother nature and use real herbs and plants for relief ... time to teach the real stuff and put pharma in the hole and get them away from their control over government and people !!! Only a weirdo would display spent vaccine vials like that. You wonder why people have stopped getting vaccinations? It's because of behaviour like that. No one wants your clotshots after they killed tens of thousands of people. Maybe you should do some journalism on that?
