Word is domestic train and plane passengers will also have to be double dosed

If you work for the federal government or a federally regulated employer than it looks like you may have to be double vaxxed to go to work.

The Prime minister is set to make an announcement today about COVID 19 vaccines.

A union spokesman for federal employees says that would mean even federal staffers who work from home or outside of the country will have to be vaccinated to keep their jobs.

Trudeau promised in August that his government would make vaccinations mandatory in federally regulated workplaces, including anyone boarding a plane or train.
