My dad was the same. He couldn’t have his bread while he worked.
Safety gear should be mandatory on the streets and highways. It is a safety risk and an insurance liability for others drivers on the road.
When I went to Florida I thought it was crazy seeing motorcycle riders riding without helmets. One fall and your head is cracked open like a watermelon.
Must be the MAGA Trump crap has me brain washed. ThanksYa thats a really good idea let's ban all religions who's beliefs we don't agree with. How incredibly American of you
Its beer time.
And that stupid thing will fly off at first impact,wrap around his neck and motorcycle and strangle him to death. So Okay...YES!! GET IT SIKH RIDERS MC!!! (The loneliest booth at motorcycle shows lol).
We have all sorts of compromises and exceptions for rules like this. I honestly don't think it's a big deal if a Sikh has a beard and turban and works security. They can sign a waiver saying they will not sue if the contract covid or what not. And with Toronto being the most multicultural city in the world, I doubt many would be upset bout this.
The city changed their mind. " Contractors who had placed the guards at city sites began demoting, moving or laying them off after the city said it was a requirement for security staff to be clean shaven for the fitting of an N95 mask. "
Toronto will demand the reinstatement of Sikh security guards removed from city positions for having beards, Mayor John Tory says.

Sikh guards should not have been fired for beards: Toronto mayor
"No city policy allows contractors to dismiss their employees based on religious beliefs or to fail to accommodate them."

We all know this will be overturned and they will get their jobs back.
By the way, we went through two years of Covid and it was just fine to wear a medical or surgical mask during that time and now all of a sudden you need an N 95 mask.
I wonder why?

Based on ignorance. Reminds me of the time just after 911, when a redneck lady wanted the guy with the turban removed from the aircraft before takeoff.
Reason was that she believed that this guy with a turban was related to the Taliban!!
Then we will miss out of the hard working individuals who have no problems with tackling any tasks!!
Goes to prove there is a big population of ignorant, dumb, uneducated and stupid nit wits
Yea. We're the problem.

Over here we go again, the same old game woe is me. Through my career, I had to wear a heavy rubber suit due to the working environments inside a nuclear reactor Darlington. I knew this before, therefore I could make my decision either work there or not. I also worked with chemicals that you had to have a full face mask on and a supplied air Scott air pack. I’ve never complained about whirring wearing PPE equipment it’s their for a reason! Now if they don’t want to wear a mask or don’t want to wear a motorcycle helmet signed a piece of paper that if you develop cancer or any other diseases or decide to crack your melon open no one will be responsible for it except you. The guy behind me takes his motorcycle out now I don’t know if it’s stolen or not there are no plates on the vehicle and he’s showing off to others, sure enough gravity took over and he smacked himself. And if you think I’m going to take my cell phone note and phone 911 I forgot the number he made the decision to be stupid let him deal with it. This is Canada, bend over and grab your ankles and wait for it. We need someone in Ottawa that has those things, the two small things that hang between your legs. The biggest thing that irks me they come here and change everything they do not acclimatize to the values of Canada.
And there will be more crying and belly aching. Blaming everyone for the problems.
90% of the folks doing all the hard dirty work are from South America, Asia or African countries.
I appreciate every word you have written. Thank you.
I too have been down this path with the full PPE dress out. It is not fun, just plain miserable and exhausting. But I was told what is expected from me before I was offered a job.
Alt-Right Terb: How dare the Government tell me to wear a mask in public places. This is unconstitutional. Everyone knows Covid is fake. It's just the flu.
Also Alt-Right Terb: If Sikhs can't follow the N95 rules and policies the Government lays out, they need to find new jobs. No exceptions. Covid is a very serious issue, just look at the global stats.
