Linda Hasenfratz, CEO of Linamar Corporation, said she spoke on Tuesday with Ontario Premier Doug Ford and retired General Rick Hillier, who chairs the task force, and made the “difficult decision” to step down from her role. She said she did not want her travel to “cause distraction” from the work of the task force, which is helping to chart Ontario’s vaccine rollout plan.
The Globe and Mail inquired on Tuesday about Ms. Hasenfratz’s travel after learning that she was in Barbados over the holidays. Ms. Hasenfratz did not say in her statement where she travelled. Public health officials have for months been urging Canadians to avoid non-essential travel.
“I regret my decision to travel, and I apologize to the Premier, General Hillier and members of the Task Force for any impact this may have had on their work.”Our Morning Update and Evening Update newsletters are written by Globe editors, giving you a concise summary of the day’s most important headlines.
Now she doesn’t have to pretend to care.
She deserved a break....
Stupidity
Who cares? Just do ur job.
She added in a tone-deaf manner : 'All I have to look forward to now is the 'Suntan Reveal Party' with my fellow entitled elite'.
Did she see JT and Co. while she was there or did she take him with her? WE really would like to know BUTT the media is eerily quiet when it comes to JT. SHAMEUS on them. CBCNews CTVNationalNews nationalpost onpoli canpoli
I shake my head. How many stupid people are there. Public health order, STAY HOME!
The urge to travel is strong among most of us. Sadly, some people would pay the price for following their 'urges' ~
Another one ! LOL 😂
Well done!! ... what makes them think they are above the law and security and safety of Ontarians
From the same linamar who won a contract in April to help build additional ICU supply that mysteriously never seemed to happen 🤔
This woman went to my father’s church. She’s one of the wealthiest women in Canada, having received her position & money from her father. As usual, it’s ‘do as I say, not as I do’ from the people who ought to be leading the way out of this pandemic, not digging us into it.
WTF
Ok she travels over the holidays. The vaccine launch was slow because the office was closed during Christmas. GTA has zero vaccines and Niagara diverts vaccine supply to another region. fordnation - What the Heck
You 👏 don’t 👏 regret 👏 travelling 👏. You regret getting caught.
I’ve got to be some kind of idiot, I stay home when not showing Toronto RealEstate to trusted clients who like I, observe lockdownontario COVID19Ontario protocols. I could’ve gone to Barbados and then said sorry.
It's OK she got a golden hand shake
If this is the task force’s example, is there any question as to why Ontario finds itself where we are, in this pandemic.
Is there anyone left on the taskforce at this point?
What exactly is the Ontario vaccination task force? Just bring the vaccines to the big boxes and shoot the thousands waiting in line ... done in no time ... and no drama!
She is a monster ask her employees, oh wait most cannot speak English, and have no clue about their rights, she runs sweat shops in Guelph, check out Linamar you will see, gets tons of gov grants and gives it to their shareholders.
I laughed out loud when I read this. So typical of everything the OPC constructs.
Ontario might as well be Trumpistan — they do what they want and tell us to do what we should. Their actions say loudly DONT TAKE COVID SERIOUSLY I DONT
A member of Ontario’s COVID vaccination task force. What was she thinking?
LOL
