Apparently Communitech knew that non-business use was a violation of the province's terms for the program. But with all the rapid tests piling up, and their expiry dates ticking closer, they decided to bend the rules and try to get more tests out. Sadly it was a little too successful, with people applying from all across the province. If they'd kept it to just the region it might have flown under the province's radar.
Not that that excuses their blame game, but I figure it's good context on what's happening.
I'm know they received a cease and desist order. That doesn't remotely justify accusing me, and throwing everyone under the bus.
Dr Moore also said parents "broke the rules" when getting these tests. Completely false. I understand that they weren't actually supposed to give them to non-workplaces, but don't but the blame on the people who in good faith applied for and received the tests. Instead, maybe they should realize that there is a demand for them and since parents were perfectly willing to organize grassroots testing amongst themselves, they should look at expanding the availability. It blows my mind (although it shouldn't at this point) how willingly the Ford Gov't will stop parents from trying to keep their unable to be vaccinated children safe while they are at school. This was just one more way I could do my part to keep my kid and her classmates safe and hopefully avoid more closures in school. Don't make me some kind of bad guy for using resources that were given to me.
