§ 101. Mr. Hobsonasked the Under-Secretary of State for Commonwealth Relations whether he is aware that a British subject, details of whom have been sent 59W to him, although provided with certificates that the state of her health made it dangerous for her to be vaccinated and that she had not been in contact with smallpox, was ordered by Canadian quarantine authorities to be vaccinated or undergo quarantine; and whether, in view of the assurance of the Canadian quarantine authorities that persons holding certificates that vaccination will injure their health, will be admitted to Canada without having to submit to vaccination, he will request the Canadian Government to inquire into the case.
§ Mr. J. FosterIt appears that the person concerned was not compelled to be vaccinated, but voluntarily chose vaccination as an alternative to a short period of quarantine. In these circumstances, I see no grounds for any approach to the Canadian authorities.
