Hello Everybody,
If you’re included on this e-mail I assumed you’ll have an curiosity in understanding our place (If not I apologize). I’ve been receiving lots of calls not too long ago concerning the vaccine passport and needed to make clear my place and state that is all I’ve to say in the intervening time.
Dangerous Tattoo Brewing won’t be implementing the vaccine passport.
Vaccine passports are unconstitutional. By implementing one thing just like the vaccine passport my enterprise is prone to breaking the legislation and we may get sued. I’ve clients which might be threatening authorized motion if I discriminate in opposition to them or violate their privateness by requiring private medical info. A few of these clients are the identical folks that have saved our enterprise going throughout limited-service intervals through the top of restrictions and we won’t flip our backs on them now. They’ve proven us nice loyalty and supported us via these extraordinarily troublesome instances, and we’ll proceed to indicate them that very same loyalty in return, no matter their very private medical selections.
Requiring my 14 to 17-year-old hosts to implement buyer vaccine passports upon entry to the eating places makes me concern for his or her well being and security and isn’t throughout the scope of their employment settlement.
I really like residing in Canada and one of many best issues about being Canadian is having the ability to serve all of our clients with out discrimination.
Thanks,
Lee Agur
Dangerous Tattoo Brewing
