Courtney Betty is the lawyer representing 30 City of Windsor workers taking legal action against the city.

“On one hand, we're pleased that our plaintiffs are going back to work. It's a great way to start the New Year but there are still other issues, such as back pay,” said Betty.

He says his clients suffered serious financial burden as a result of being let go.

“They were cut off at the knees. They were not able to claim any sick days and were denied employment insurance,” said Betty.
He says his clients couldn’t file for EI because they were fired with cause.

“One of our plaintiffs had cancer and his health plan was cut off. Another individual couldn't afford to pay for dental care. Individuals lost their homes,” said Betty.

The employees would like to be compensated by the city for lost income during the period in which they were out of work due to the vaccine policy.

Legal action against city of Windsor continues despite the rehiring of unvaccinated workers The City of Windsor is rehiring most of the 84 employees who did not comply with the city’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate and were terminated, but the lawsuit against the city continues.

Remember when City of Windsor Mayor posted this video using discriminatory language against his citizens that chose not to be inoculated.

Here’s a few quotes from this unknown poet:

“COVIDIOTS take risks that most normal people feel are wrong.”

“USE YOUR BRAIN, cover your face.”

“Your risky behaviour proves that you’re just DENSE.

“You can’t act like a MASKHOLE if you want things to be okay.”

“Not persuaded by COMMON SENSE or FEAR”

“VERY SPECIAL others - your SLOPPY BEHAVIOUR can affect everyone.”

When choosing to vote for mayor on October 24, 2022 send a clear message that you won’t tolerate this sort of disgusting discriminatory behaviour in your elected officials.

Five current students have served Western University over its COVID-19 vaccination policy, and are scheduled to appear in London’s court Sept. 19.

The students allege Western University has “no lawful authority to collect, copy, store or use the personal vaccination and medical information of students,” such as proof of COVID-19 vaccination. The students want the court to order the “university [to] dispose [of] personal vaccination and medical information of its students which has already been collected.

"It stings, absolutely, and it not just stings the pocket, it stings right down to the soul," Seal told CBC News about being fired.

"I was good enough to work for the City of Windsor for almost two years of the pandemic, and then to be just discarded in the beginning of 2022 was heartbreaking."

"No amount of shame, guilt or coercion by the City of Windsor was ever going to break who I am as a person or what I believe, nor do I think any corporation or employer should be able to do that."

“Arbitrator Robert Herman accepted that an employee may be entitled to an exemption from an employer’s mandatory COVID-19 vaccination policy on the basis of creed where they held a sincere belief that the relationship between the COVID-19 vaccines and fetal cell lines was contrary to their religious convictions.”

The City has an exception in place for police officers, Courtney Betty, lawyer for the plaintiffs', adds. “Police officers right now don’t have to be vaccinated in Windsor, but if you’re a firefighter you do. The best way of describing the policy is that it’s totally unreasonable.”

City of Windsor Mayor writes a letter for support to federal Employment Minister Qualtro asking that the Syncreon workers be eligible for benefits, including Employment Insurance.

One Twitter user's response was interesting: "Why didn’t you write a similar letter for the over 100+ City of Windsor workers that you illegally terminated so that they could receive the EI benefits that they also paid into for decades???? You’re a hypocrite & ONLY care for auto workers. Stop playing politricks Dilkens!!

"On Wednesday, Ontario's Chief Medical Officer of Health Dr. Kieran Moore said the province is halting its five-day isolation requirement and moving away from COVID-19-specific guidance in favour of an "all-virus approach," meaning the new isolation guidelines will apply to other illnesses such as the flu as well."

People with COVID-19 should take individual responsibility, says Windsor-Essex top doctor | CBC News Following the dropping of isolation requirements for people with COVID-19 in Ontario, the top doctor in Windsor-Essex says people who test positive for COVID-19 have "important responsibilities" to protect others.

“Perhaps most egregious, these individuals were denied access to the benefits earned prior to being placed on leave, including medical benefits, pensions, banked time, floating holidays, vacation days and sick leave, effectively compounding their suffering by erasing all benefits accrued in ‘good standings’ by each employee.

These purely punitive acts, to which Courtney Betty argues, serve the purpose of creating an identifiable group of the ‘unvaccinated’ for the sole purpose of willful discrimination.”

City of Windsor Employees Sue City For Violating Vaccine Mandates In January 2022, the City of Windsor Ontario fired 104 employees for refusing to be vaccinated or refusing to disclose their status. Of these, 20 have moved forward to pursue legal action against the city, with a list of plaintiffs that includes first responders, long-term care staff and a variety o...

Congratulations are in order for the Toronto firefighters recent arbitration victory.

“I think it is a SIGNIFICANT STEP. It’s certainly PRECEDENT SETTING,” Howard Goldblatt said in an interview with the Star on Saturday. He said the arbitrator’s conclusion that dismissal as the only outcome was unreasonable could have “very broad implications” for other cases across the province and even nationally.

Unreasonable for Toronto to dismiss firefighters over vaccine status, arbitrator says In victory for 13 firefighters who lost their jobs over vaccine status, a labour arbitrator ruled that Toronto’s enforcement of its vaccination policy was not reasonable, setting a potential precedent for other fired workers

In a release, Courtney Betty — the group’s legal counsel — said the City of Windsor is required to abide by the division of powers set out in the Constitution of Canada, and protect the plaintiff’s rights under the Canadian Charter of Rights.

Betty described what happened to his clients as “tragedy and suffering.”

Workers who were fired over COVID vaccine refusal sue City of Windsor A group of former City of Windsor employees have a lawsuit against the municipality for their termination due to COVID-19 vaccine policy.

Courtney Betty, lawyer for the workers stated, “There's just no logic as to why the city would fire first responders, individuals who have been working there for over 30 years. One individual was within six months of retirement when these individuals should have been allowed to work from home."
