"So, look Indigenous and other marginalized folks... I know we've had some less than great history about mandatory government programs. And yes, childhood education is essential, but if you don't agree to this mandatory medical program we will not allow your child in school."

It's a tricky balance but this article doesn't even attempt to explore reasons we might not be making these mandatory, which to my mind is criminally poor reporting and one of my major issues with the Tyee.

That’s not really a tricky balance, there is a clear right direction to pick

I am curious, though. Did First Nation consultation result in any voiced resistance against vaccination?

So there's a measles outbreak at a school then wouldn't that potentially make them liable for it?
